The remake reboot prequel sequel industrial complex is killing me but the good thing is I don't have to watch any of that. I can just think "that sounds boring or otherwise doesn't interest me in any way" and do something other than watch it

"They're making a willy wonka origin story with timothee chalamet," you might say to me. "They're doing a live action the last airbender again, didn't you love avatar?" I don't find it necessary. This is nothing to me

#my ability to not watch something is unparalleled

My ability to not watch stuff is out of control. It's so powerful I end up not watching stuff I was fully intending to watch

Ride swiftly and beware, o painted knight,       Of monsters lurking in the marginalia: Infernal quails and wingèd snails in flight,       Claws, inky jaws, and kings in strange regalia, And things whose gilded stings strike home despite       Your armor’s solid lines — it seems there’s daily a New threat — and if you smudge the printed hymn, The scribe himself may tear you limn from limn.

Ordering that meal today:

and here's the us inflation calculator to compare it to as well

An art installation by David Popa recently unveiled at Whitby Abbey, Yorkshire.

My oil painting of an Uncrustable

Art deco doors at the C.D. Peacock jewelry store in Chicago Illinois. 1925

That's a clear example of art nouveau. This is art deco:

Elevator doors from the Hotel Allegro Royal Sonesta in Chicago, Illinois, similar time period.

The quick way to remember deco vs. nouveau is if it looks like it was made by elves or dwarves.

this part of stevie nicks’ interview with rolling stone is taking me out

How is it that in a 90s movie starring a bunch of American/British/South African actors pretending to live in 1920s Egypt, the Texan accent is the worst one???

I do love that you can see the influence of Tolkien meaning for Eowyn to die throughout her arc. That girl just screams "doomed by the narrative". She's set up for this grand yet tragic death, and wants for nothing else than a grand exit and a glorious end to all things.

But having her live is so much more interesting. And having her live to find happiness especially. She seems like a tragic character. She thinks herself a tragic character. She is overwhelmed by a sense of doom and helplessness. Her narrative is overwhelmed by a sense of doom and helplessness.

But she isn't doomed.

Turns out, decent healthcare, clued in and concerned family members, and a decent support base, go a long towards towards un-dooming her narrative.

thinking about that one wordless calvin and hobbes sunday strip thats just calvins dad ditching his work to go play in the snow... its going to make me cry

ohhhh my god

”#I LOVE that the comic keeps the lens on Calvin’s dad to the degree of not even showing Calvin’s excited face when his dad surprises him, #You can see the joy and excitement of the moment in his pose and reflected in his dad’s expression, #it’s a great little artistic decision, #I realized what gets me about it it’s the hat covering his dad’s head and hair so the dad just looks like Calvin. #you don’t HAVE to show Calvin! You already see him in the dad becoming a kid for a moment you only have to draw that once”

oh to have a fraction of the swag the average background character in sleeping beauty does

youre right im sorry

theyre so fucking color and shape bro

this was supposed to be 15 note post but im glad everyone sees my vision.
