Wait, wait…. Is that seriously it? How their clothes go?

trust the ancients to make a fashion statement out of straight cloth and nothing but pins
Wrap Yourself In Blankets, Call It a Day
Wear blanket. Conquer world.
That last one looks dope
Squares and rectangles: easy to weave!! No cutting means no hemming.
And easy to construct, you don’t have to have complicated seaming and patterning to turn fabric into clothing!

This sort of clothing solution wasn’t just for the Mediterranean, or northern Africa, either. Behold the Belted Plaid:

Has anyone already reblogged this with saris? It’s cool how many cultures have similarities like this hidden in plain sight.

The lungi is a traditional garment worn in many southern states of India. It's different from the dhoti, in that it is a tubular shape (like
Since we are here might as well share the dhoti and the lungi

It’s only men in the photos but really anyone can wear them. I am wearing a lungi right now.
I also know Thailand and Sri Lanka have their versions of a lungi as well.
Do you think the upcoming Star Fox game's graphics/designs have "Nintendo, Hire This Man" vibes?
Not really, no. The Nintendo Hire This Man look is generally when something gets chucked into Unreal Engine 5 with all of the visual effects cranked to maximum, but without any effort to harmonize the look and aesthetic with either the game's genre and themes or even with the actual world design.
So a fuckton of bloom and glow and raytracing and 4k resolution textures, but it's all slapped onto Mario 64, a game whose entire design is shaped around low-poly, low-resolution art design and limited graphical processing power.
It's the look produced by a creative who confuses fidelity for quality, who confuses surface level appeal for artistic merit. "If the light is raytraced, that means it's better! If the texture is 4k, that means it's better! If the model has more polygons, that means it's better!"
So if the new Star Fox game looked Nintendo Hire This Man, I would expect the character designs of Fox and the gang to be mostly unchanged, except for being much more detailed. I would expect especially a character like Katt to look unchanged except for being even more yassified, (because, again, confusing appeal for merit) and I also wouldn't expect Falco and Fox to be redesigned in a way that so many people find instinctively uncanny (because they're not used to furry characters that actually look like animals). Basically, I would sooner expect a Nintendo Hire This Man approach to produce designs like 2016's Star Fox Zero than I would expect it to produce designs like Star Fox 2026.
The Nintendo Hire This Man aesthetic is ultimately one which is incapable of meaningfully challenging its original game on the merits of its design language, because it's an aesthetic driven by nostalgia. All it can do is crank the graphics settings up to max with all the modern bells and whistles and go "look how cool the thing you already like is! Look how cool it is now that we fixed the problem of the hardware not being good enough to make it look this cool!" It doesn't want to change the original, it wants to dress it up in the gloss of legitimacy that comes from realistic, high-fidelity rendering technology. I would not expect that design approach to produce animalistic, off-putting furries, I would expect it to produce high-gloss versions of the original designs, unchanged in their fundamentals. Star Fox 2026 does seem to want to challenge the original a little bit—or at the very least, if it's trying to pull for nostalgia, it is a nostalgia for the original 1993 box art puppet designs, rather than the 1997 Star Fox 64 designs.
Honestly, right at the moment I'm more concerned about the Ocarina of Time remake being a Nintendo Hire This Man situation, since the only brief scene they showed of it was one of Child Link looking overdesigned and weirdly quasi-realistic, laying in a scene of glow and bloom lighting... but I need to see more of the actual game before I make that call. I want to see how (and if) the world design and art design of the whole game has been changed to suit the new look.
personalized ads are so funny to me
'hey we've been spying on you and tracking your every move. it's a culmination of state of the art technology and an unprecedented invasion of consumer privacy. a room full of men with made up jobs bent their will toward decades of constructing this system, defending it in court, and tirelessly innovating new ways to aggregate more data about you'
and the end result is
'yeah so uh we saw that you recently bought a car. so here's an ad for that car'
like no i'm good actually. you might be aware that i already have one
posting this on twitter will get you put into witness protection
The magic of childhood is that you were constantly encountering new things. The best way to feel that way again is to fill your life with new experiences.

saw someone including "Mandate of Heaven" as one of those christian terms tumblr likes to use to sound profound. which i get where you're coming from but t☝️hat one is chinese
holdon
what the fuck is going on in this site's backend
all the “peer pressure is bad” education we give kids is practically useless because all it cares about is telling them that Drugs Are Evil rather than the much more useful lesson of ‘the person who responds to you saying you don’t drink by telling you they’ll find a way to get you to is also going to be shitty about all your other boundaries’.
god forbid you teach kids that their consent should be respected rather than about the inherent immorality of all the sinful actions of their peers
that makes me curious
do you think you could beat up your blorbo in a fistfight if you had to
yes
no
nuance i guess?
some hyper famous artists like Van Gogh transcend overratedness and become underrated because they're so normalized. Like I'll look at a van Gogh and I'm like wait this really is amazing you guys don't get it
Shakespeare is like this
Every time I see a Van Gogh that’s not one of his better known pieces it absolutely blows me away
Have you seen this shit my liege? smh unreal
prev dont leave this in the tags
Literally the definition of imperialism and classism. Doesn’t matter how many peasants you sacrifice as long as the most powerful piece is left standing
Proximity of bishops to the rulers promotes theocratic oppression
the horse is so fuckable
I know this is a tiny part of the wider problems born of diet culture, fatphobia, classicism, and racism but like god the idea that "healthy" food must inherently taste bad has completely ruined us as a society.
Every time you feel bad for having coffee with cream and sugar or ranch on your salad or putting extra butter and salt on your veggies I want you to imagine the spirit of John Harvey Kellogg in front of you and then I want you to kill him with a real gun and eat your delicious food in peace.
you need to make more self-indulgent art btw. hyper-specific self-indulgent niche shit that appeals to You Specifically and maybe nobody else will get it or even like it but that's the point.
The fact that people don't think friendship is enough to justify characters doing insane acts of love for each other baffles me. Like have you never loved your friend so so much you want to live in their ribcage. Have you never been really weird about a friend. Have you never wanted to bite your friends parents or shove them down a staircase. Have you never wanted to be buried in the same grave as a friend. Have u never. How do u people live like this.

its 2026 i cannot handle any more fucking "author A obviously ripped off author B" discourse by people Who Have Only Seen the work of author B and admit themselves that they have no further knowledge of the literary landscape they are moving in. like.
Folks really need to reacquaint themselves with this concept
whenever i get worried about being judged i just gotta remind myself that most people genuinely just arent mean. some people really do suck but i think 98% of the human population is a lot kinder than your anxiety would let you believe
