& honestly there's no debate to be had the zendaya earrings are orders of magnitude worse than kim kardashian wearing that marilyn dress. yes that piece was a one of a kind unique textile made so specifically for marilyn monroe she had to be sewn into it. at the end of the day it was a ~70 year old usamerican cultural artefact being repurposed by an american for an american cultural event and everyone involved knows exactly where the dress came from + what happened to it + where it went afterwards. zendaya is wearing the looted (or forged) cultural heritage of a people her government is currently bombing & whose lives they have been deliberately making unliveable for decades to a movie premiere that has fuck all to do with iran. we don't know where those discs came from where they were found or by whom & we never will. AND the jeweller appears to have altered them substantially from their original condition. destroying a people's cultural heritage at the same time you destroy their country + their lives so you can look good on a red carpet One Time i want to fucking hurl

uhhhhmanda

The earrings, worn by Zendaya at The Odyssey press tour, are believed to be 2,000-3,000 years old and come at a time when the US is bombing

An archaeologist quoted in the article says "the point of these earrings is not to showcase legitimate ancient artistry, it is to fetishize the past, to be a commodity, stolen from the elite, circulated illegally, and immorally…this is about class signalling."

Bury My Heart (Galehaut Laid to Rest)

"HERE LIES GALEHAUT THE SON OF THE GIANTESS, THE LORD OF THE DISTANT ISLES, WHO DIED FOR THE LOVE OF LANCELOT" "And Lancelot himself lay his companion to rest inside the tomb. After he had laid Galehaut down, he kissed him three times on the mouth in such agony that his heart nearly leapt out of his chest. " - Lancelot Part IV (Lancelot-Grail /Vulgate Cycle)

I haven't completed a traditional drawing in pencil in years after switching almost completely to digital. There was a few times I almost gave up in the sketch phase, so I'm proud of myself for seeing it through.

Its been genuinely healing to work on this and pour my heart for these two.

If I ever have the time I'd really like to make a short comic of the events that transpire between Lancelot finding Galehaut's original grave and bringing him home so that they may eventually rest together. (Note: I did add a blue wash on the background since I wanted to leave the original drawing in pencil with no paint or marker. I'll be sharing the original drawing with no digital edits, some color tests (since I still plan to do a colored version), and a deep dive on the many references/inspirations behind this piece on Patreon later this month.)

Guinevere's consoling letter to Iseult, after Tristan marries Ms. White Hands: Two Versions

Prose Tristan:

(Source: Prose Tristan)

This is such a cool and insightful piece from Queen Guinevere. Love the dip into the Rota Fortunae as both a euclidation and a cause for hope. Rare times that Guinevere really does get to display her wisdom and experience as a lady and as a lover.

Meanwhile:

Le Morte D'Arthur:

(Source: Le Morte D'Arthur, by Thomas Malory)

This version seems rather unnecessarily accusatory... 😑

thinking about the time a former housemate said to me "hey I put these box fans in the living room because it's hot" while gesturing to the fans that I was actively sitting in front of because it was hot. and I said "okay thanks." and she kept standing there like she was waiting for something else so I said "am I blocking the airflow? do you need me to move?" and she said no I'm just letting you know they're here, in the living room, for circulation. and I said well yes, I did put that together. I am enjoying them. thank you. and she looked confused. so I asked "am I meant to do something with this information or are you just informing me?" and she said no I'm letting you know they're here because It's Hot In Here. she seemed a bit aggravated, and her emphasis seemed deliberate.

it took me asking three more times before she finally told me she wanted me to leave the fans where they are instead of moving them to my room or something. and I said oh! I had no intention of doing so but thank you for letting me know what the expectation is.

about a month later she brought up that conversation as the moment it actually clicked for her that I Am Autistic And Will Not Magically Intuit The Unspoken Request You Didn't Ask Me.

I have observed enough allistic communication to know that generally, if somebody points something out to you that you can already see or are already clearly interacting with, they are making an indirect request. but as I don't know what the request is, the only way forward is for me to guess (and likely get it wrong), or prompt the allistic to tell me clearly what they need.

however, allistics don't realize they do this, so asking them to say the unspoken surprises and confuses them. this is not their fault. allistics can be quite emotionally fragile and perceive directness as confrontation, so they habitually rely on indirect speech and coded language to preserve others' feelings. this is why they may find it difficult to be direct, even when asked. I have found that with enough gentle encouragement and reassurance that they are actually helping you, you too can achieve successful communication with your allistic friend or loved one. :)

Hi there! I love your site and have learned so much. This is admittedly not-Arthurian and a big caveat for (lots of) violence, but I caught the Death of Robin Hood recently, and it is a really, really interesting medieval film. What the Green Knight thought it was doing. It seemed to get brushed off, but it's a pretty fascinating "legend" deconstruction that I could imagine 100% in an Arthurian context. Anyway, just mentioning because no one liked it, but it was worthwhile art.

Hello!

Thank you I’m glad!

I haven’t seen the new Robin Hood so I can’t really speak on it too much aside from really just liking color in my movies which the poster doesn’t really indicate the film focuses on.

What “deconstruction” do you think should be brought to Arthurian Legend?
