when in doubt, use your sibling as a blunt object
Hey Wolfy,
guess what I found at work today.
I'd like to know who thought this cookie cutter to be good idea, like, what was the thought process behind it?
God forbid I want to eat a cookie in the shape of Jesus on the cross
i thought about the complete lack of satine in mando s3 again and i got so annoyed i had to make a comic
(commission info // tip jar!)
*looks at books* too tired for you *looks at films* too tired for you *looks at art supplies* too tired for you *eyes fall on tumblr* oho ho
was at lunch with a friend a few weeks ago talking about Onfim (Russian schoolboy who drew on his homework around the 13th century) and she said "Yeah? That's just human nature?"
YEAH IT IS THAT'S THE POINT WE'RE HUMANS WE'RE HUMANS AND WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN HUMANS FROM BABY HANDPRINTS IN CAVES WHERE BIG PEOPLE WOULD'VE HAD TO PICK THEM UP AND HELP THEM TO THE LOVE WORK INTO OTZI'S SHOES TO SILLY GRAFFITI IN POMPEII. WE'RE HUMANS AND WE WERE MADE THIS WAY TO MAKE ART AND SKNG AND DANCE AND LIVE. THAT'S THE THESIS GOD MADE US LIKE THIS AND YOU CAN TRACE THE WONDER THAT IS HUMANITY ACROSS THE WORLD AND THE MILLENIA. IT'S SO COOL
i like archaeology.
(also note the continuing dedication to Ea-Nasir. Excellent choice on everyone's part to discuss sub-par copper)
Listen if the study of ancient humans doesn’t make you at least a little bit emotional idk what to say.
I started crying today at the museum because they had reconstructed the shoes of Otzi the iceman.
Either he or someone he knew who cared about him made these shoes out of grass and bear skin and twine and he was wearing them when he died over five thousand years ago.
And a Czech researcher and his students did reconstructions of these shoes and wore them to the same place where he died to test them out and they were like yep! These shoes are really cozy and comfy and didn’t give us blisters while hiking!
Is that not just the coolest shit ever????
Abolish the comic book industrial complex 🙂
Cadet Echo, to Fives: It's okay to be sad, sometimes we need to let our feelings out, just let yourself be sad.
99: Oh that's so lovely, well done. Why is he crying?
Echo: I hit him.
Fic rec with some lovely art! Come to the dark side (we have glowing eyes and cool powers)
Idk I’m a sucker for glowing eyes
Might do more
People are SLEEPING on the most interesting Leia & Padme comparisons because there's so much focus on Leia being "like Anakin" because she gets annoyed sometimes and Padme being this perfect moral beacon of truth and justice despite all of her very canonical lies and cover-ups and obstructing of justice.
If Luke is the Jedi that Anakin should've been, then Leia is the LEADER that Padme should've been.
Padme is a hypocrite, proclaiming that all people deserve basic decency and the right to safety, but at the same time allowing Anakin to get away with a mass murder with no consequences by covering it up.
Leia doesn't even let Han get away with being a little bit of an asshole, there's no way she'd let him get away with mass murder. She holds everyone around her to a higher standard, believing in the best of them but also but refusing to accept excuses for cowardice and selfishness.
Padme talks so much about wanting the war to end, but then allows one of the opposition's biggest generals go free just to get Anakin back because she cares about him, causing the war to continue to go on for even longer.
Leia lets Luke sacrifice himself because she knows it's possibly the only way they might have a victory and beat the Empire, even though she knows what he is to her and loves him. She knows what has to be done and respects the choice Luke is making and would never condemn their efforts just to keep him with her.
Padme's story parallels Anakin's, she devolves as the narrative goes on, until she's barely a shell of the person she used to be. That strength and moral clarity she showed as a Queen is entirely gone, leaving only a scared woman pleading with a murderer to come back to her.
Leia's story parallels Luke's, she gains more and more strength and clarity as the narrative moves forward. The bossy young woman we first met has become a confident rebel leader who knows she doesn't have to harden her heart to be strong.
terrible news: the only way to find out if something you create is gonna be good or bad is to actually create it
