Painting my childhood chair that is perfect for making paper and washing off fossils! I’m just praying I have enough paint markers for all of the details I have to do when I’m done blocking out the shapes
Some pages from a random chapter of a hypothetical Tusk Love graphic novel :D
Man this one took quite a lot out of me! But I definitely figured out some things on the way here, especially in the painting department.
Also if this hypothetical comic ever becomes non-hypothetical, I gotta do some trimming somewhere, takes way too much energy to go full painting. Also I don’t know how to do effects, gotta get some sort of class there or something.
Do you guys remember how kidnap fantasies were popular on wattpad because young girls and queer teens were both made to feel shame at the thought of their own sexualities, so the fantasy of being kidnapped totally against their will was a way for them to engage with a romantic or sexual fantasy without feeling morally in the wrong for doing so? Added bonus that the fantasy involved being whisked away from repressive environments like home or school, right?
Finding out that Bram Stoker was in a sexless marriage and that scholars believe that he very likely was closeted gay puts the entire book into perspective as to WHY it reads EXACTLY like a self insert wattpad Dracula kidnap fic:
“I TOTALLY love my wife and would never do anything that an upstanding Good Straight Working Man wouldn’t do but oh nooo, big strong man with broad back and strong enough arms to carry me back to bed like a princess trapped me and claimed me as his, completely against my will But he protects me against the bad evil sexual women (who I assure you, I am TOTALLY sexually attracted to, as any straight man with a choice would be) but trust me, I do NOT want ANY of this. What’s that? The Count is not capable of feeling love? Would be a shame if I had the special ability to change tha-”
everyone is begging you to stop this false grief / turn it out, hack it to pieces, bury it– / i’m telling you, / all of your poems are about earth / about returning to a place, / any place, / any place that accepts you like a fever dream. / you make yourself up in the image others want to see / yourself included / take all the bad parts out / and make yourself into a martyr.
i’m telling you, / if you make a sound in the forest / nobody hears you as loudly as yourself.
Guys, I think we all assumed that Jim would wield Excalibur, but I’m a little scared. I mean, they put something that huge in the TRAILER. Your telling me there’s things even bigger than Jim lifting out Excalibur?! What else are they hiding?
(Either that, or they’re like “ah frig it, they already know Jim’s gonna wield Excalibur, just show them what they want )
The way kim k was allowed to wear Marilyn Monroe’s dress to the met gala is so infuriating both from a fashion conservation standpoint and a historical standpoint. Marilyn Monroe came from absolutely nothing and was super smart and was an advocate for minority rights and was on the fucking government’s communist watchlist and kim k thinks she has the right to wear her dress? And not only that but rich people shouldn’t just be allowed to wear historical garments whenever they want. It damages a garment that should be preserved by experts in a museum instead. Fuck off get hit by a car dumb bitch
Also it’s not on theme stupid cunt!!! The theme is the GILDED AGE, not the 1960S!!!!! Plus it looks bad on you
So…. this actually like… gets WORSE?? somehow??? The people at ripley’s believe it or not, who own the dress now, and loaned it to kim k, I guess, as a Celebration for the transaction, gave kim a small jar of marilyin monroe’s Hair Which she then commented “I should clone her” and “I’m gonna do some crazy voodoo shit with this” and saying she’s gonna sleep with it
LIKE. They really are fucking treating this whole ass dead human being, who fought for rights and progressiveness in our society, as a fucking product, like she’s a souvenir at a goddamn disney theme park to take home and ogle at
Marilyn deserves her peace after a hard, painful, difficult life. She was a beautiful person, a compassionate woman. She deserves to be left in peace but no one with the power to leave her be seems to care about what she deserves.
