Keith Haring in 1989: “Unfinished Painting”. Haring died few months after and this is his last painting. This is supposed to be a self-portrait. Haring knew he wouldn’t have enough time to finish it. This is one of the saddest but certainly the most powerful thing I’ve ever seen.

[auntbutch]

to clarify: this is a finished self portrait. haring did know that he would be unable to continue to work; this “unfinished” painting refers to that self-consciously as a visualization of how the aids crisis and government neglect robbed him of his life and future career.

i feel like this distinction is important? there are many artists who died due to hiv/aids and left unfinished work, but haring made this specifically to comment on his impending death. i feel like stating that it’s actually unfinished takes away some of his agency as an artist/activist/pwa and the political power of the work.

Did a survey on dndbeyond and I laughed out loud when I got to this one. Wizards of the Coast is pretty strict about where their IP ends up, and have taken down more than one very useful site over the years that hosts dnd content. I don’t know if anyone else is gonna take this survey, but this is good to know for the future: protect non licensed sites from take downs by not being a snitch, purposefully or accidentally.

you’re laughing. the hannibal fandom jokingly made #consensualcannibalism trending on twitter only for the democrats and republicans to assume its about their opposing party and start viciously attacking each other over supporting cannibalism and you’re laughing

You bet the fuck I am!

The Great Gatsby's copyright expires January 1, 2021 and I for one am quite looking forward to the inevitable publication of Nick/Gatsby fanfiction.

[fageleh]

Look me in the eye and tell me there's not at least ten people sitting on a completed manuscript right now. I dare you.

[headspace-hotel]

Oh dude time to write the Greater Gatsby

Y’all I got great news for you:

Tordotcom Publishing is thrilled to announce that Ruoxi Chen has acquired Nghi Vo’s The Chosen and the Beautiful, a magical reimagining of The Great Gatsby told through the eyes of a queer, Asian-American Jordan Baker as the American immigrant narrative that Gatsby always should have been.

Do you know any cursed pumpkin facts?. I love pumpkins

growing Giant Pumpkins is an intense and highly competitive practice as growers produce larger and larger pumpkins every year and enter them in various competitions.

the largest pumpkins currently top a ton in weight, and seeds from these prize-winning goliaths can sell for hundreds of dollars apiece proving there is indeed such a thing as a Pedigree Pumpkin.

Did you know that in Oregon there is a boat race where the boats are pumpkins? It’s called the Giant Pumpkin Regatta and it looks like this:

[sheepscot]

Damariscotta Maine also has a pumpkin regatta, most are like the picture above where paddles are the propelling force but a special section has engines attached to the pumpkins

the pumpkinfest also gives out giant pumpkin seeds (for free!) for people to grow. During the festival you can see the racers construct their boats

Which side are you on?

[canarycontessa]

^ this right the fuck here is what i really want people to get about fascism: its a death and more importantly a death-seeking ideology. its not about heritage its not about their civil liberties its not about whatever the fuck they throw up as a smokescreen. its about causing as much destruction as possible to people that aren’t them
