Art, Skyrim, and...er...things I like

Actually no how the fuck is it august

Happy “how the fuck is it august” to those who celebrate!

Hey dude. Couldn't help but notice that the peaceful backing music cut out when you fixed me with a glare uncharacteristic of the traits we've seen you display so far. What was that all about.

I’m not quite as well read on the byzantines as I am about some other eras of Greek history but whenever I peek into what they were up to there’s a concerning amount of hands getting cut off and politics being decided through sports team riots.

Ah yeah what ya got right there is another crusader infestation, yeah. Can’t fully get rid of ‘em ever since Alexios called up the pope for the first crusade. Yeah, once you let one in they don’t stop coming. Multiply like rabbits.

OH MY GOD ITS THE BUBONIC PLAGUE BACK AGAIN WITH A STEEL CHAIR

I think that somebody must’ve wished for the empire to last for a thousand more years and the being that heard them giggled and went okay you got it but remember that you didn’t wish for a thousand years of prosperity

you are fifteen thousand generations removed from stone tools

to be clear you are fifteen thousand generations removed from the invention of stone tools. not from the end of stone tools. modern humans are still using stone tools.

I thought you meant we were descendents -of- stone tools

your father was a handaxe and your mother smelt of microliths

I'm gonna go check on my WIP. just in case it wrote itself while I was gone. You never know.

the thing about Tangled is that this is a story geared towards little girls (even if it's "fun for the whole family," it's a disney princess movie, it's geared towards little girls), and it says, "here is a girl who is naive and doesn't know anything about the 'Real World' or how to navigate it safely and correctly. now pay close attention: the good guys are the ones who help her grow and explore new things while still respecting her own perspective and feelings, not making her feel stupid. the bad guys are the ones who tell her that she is too weak/immature/naive to do the things she wants to do, because she is fragile and needs protecting." and I watched this when I was nine years old and it resonated deep in a part of me that I couldn't articulate with words yet.

i feel like we've completely killed the ability to just gently tell someone when they're wrong or that their opinions don't pass the vibe check. we have to accommodate every single type of person and all their dogshit opinions OR we have to drive them off the internet, no in between

take me to art museums and make out with me

But they said to not touch the masterpieces

Well somebody’s gotta pin the artwork to the wall
