born to be mild

i want to do a painting of a tiger taking a bath to put in a bathroom (bathroom-themed bathroom) and to this end i made a little maquette out of clay and i suspect this will scope creep into having both a painting and sculpture of a tiger or perhaps only a sculpture of a tiger. if i do both should they be displayed together or separately

This is the COOLEST thing I’ve seen in AGES. You both completely made my entire week.

they're still terming random transfems as i type this i see which does make quite a statement doing this today specifically

watched three girls who reblogged its new blog mutual aidpost (made literally 15 minutes ago) already disappear from its notifs. transfems are not included in their pride :/

:)

QUITE the statement to be nuking transfems at the current accelerated pace right at the start of pride month like this, isn't it

The oldest reblog with comment from a blog that still exists is from June 2 2026. This is still happening!

Image Description: A black and white photograph of two marchers on a street, lined with observers. One carries a sign that reads, “A gay landlord is still a landlord,” interspersed with stars. End ID.

this photo is in black and white because it was taken in black and white on black and white film. a color version does not exist. black and white film still exists to this day. hope this helps.

Also one answer for why so many famous photos are black and white is because staff shooters for a lot of newspapers, and freelancers who sold most of their work to newspapers, often shot B+W pretty much up to the digital turnover, both for higher fidelity of details in the first place, faster processing (because they could develop at home or in the paper's onsite labs), and because they expected to be printing in black and white eventually anyway.

Also, while today we tend to associate black and white photography with things that happened a long time ago because color photography has been around for so long, it used to be more associated with things to be taken seriously/serious journalism.
