shakespeare was so funny for that scene where the antagonist tells the protagonist “let the record show that i AM into women THAT BEING SAID holy shit, thou mars, seeing you here is like an even better version of my wedding night. like WAY better. i’ve been dreaming about you every night for years, and in my dreams we take off each other’s armor and beat each other to a pulp and i wake up all hot and sticky 👍”

⚡️🌱 Zeus Velchanos, the greatest kouros ⛰️🐂

"Io! Greatest Kouros, hail, all-powerful son of Kronos, who have come to earth at the head of your daimones. Come to Dikte for the yearly cycle and take pleasure in our song. We thread it with harps and blend it with pipes and sing as we come to a stand at your well-fenced altar. For here the shield-bearing nurturers took you, a child immortal, from Rhea, and with noise of beating feet hid you away. . . . of fair dawn abounded every year, and men were restrained by Justice, and all living animals were - - - by wealth-loving Peace O lord, spring up in the wine-jars, spring up in the fleecy flocks, spring up in the crops of the fields and in the fruitful homes. Spring up in our cities, spring up in our sea-borne ships, spring up in our young citizens, . . . and spring up in noble order." --- Hymn to Dictaean Zeus

At the end of the day, my thoughts on job hunting are that it's incredibly stupid how every fiber of our current socioeconomic structure is screaming that you MUST have a job and nothing else matters because you MUST be working and that's the only thing of true importance so never forget that you MUST have a job, and I'm like damn okay so I'd like a job, can I have one? And the answer is No

i can't do this anymore guys. dostoevsky never wrote this. please. can anyone hear me. if you do proper research the earliest version of this quote is from like a 2010 facebook quote with a magenta flower on it. it's gotten so bad that it's even credited to him on goodreads but nobody can source where he wrote it because he fucking didn't. i can't keep seeing this in your web weaves. dostoevsky the author of crime and punishment did not in fact write "you were destined for me. perhaps as a punishment". that is just simply not true. please nod and tell me you understand

The MET Gala is a fundraiser for The Met. Putting on the fashion exhibition is VERY costly. Has the politics, inflation, and bullshit gotten out of hand? Yeah. To give you an idea of how much this can cost, the collection I work for has 2 gowns from 1798 & 1809 currently being conserved and had mounts made for them so displaying them wouldn’t cause further damage. They were already in a solid B shape and cost more than 50k to conserve so the public can view them for 5 months each. They will then be reboxed (archival tissue and box) for a minimum of 10 years before they’re considered to be seen again. Oh, and archival material only lasts 10 years before it has to be replaced, whether or not it’s being considered for display.

Don’t like the gala? Support local museums with a textile or fashion collection, they get fractions of the budget, revenue or publicity, and still aim to achieve a solid fraction of what the MET does. More collections are deaccessioning their textiles because they’re costly to maintain, large and need space. However, after big names artists like Van Gogh, Botticelli or da Vinci they get the most interest in from the public. The study of clothing is an opportunity to shine light on women & minority stories as well. Don’t let the fact that some of the guests suck and have more money than any of them need take away the importance of museums and dress study.

wait i just realized people don't know, the thing on the left (that the model is carrying as a handbag) is a vintage public bus ticket machine! we had those in argentina for a while, i don't remember when they stopped existing because i feel like i remember seeing one and i was born in the 90s but everything i find for comparison is from like the 40s to the 70s so maybe i made that up and just saw it in a museum, i don't know lmao but yes! they looked like this

and the old buses looked something like this, hence the shoe design!

Artemis sends the Orion back to Gaia 🌍

.

What’s that saying? We are the Universe experiencing itself. Well, these Artemis II astronauts are out there experiencing the universe on an entirely different level.

I’ll admit, I had this idea and I did not eat or sleep or move until it was done. It was just one of those things that you need to get out or it’ll stay a sketch forever. I changed up my style a bit for this one too, utilizing some of the more artsy procreate brushes I have never touched in my entire life as an iPad artist.

You gotta love space, man. 🌖
