We have to keep reblogging this so future historians will read it and puzzle endlessly over its meaning

[moodycow210]

The heavy implication that historical ‘abstract’ poetry that people have been analysing for ages without being able to conclude the meaning could have just been shitpost level in-jokes between poets is sending me.

Me: You know how when you were a kid and you’d wish that you’d get sick or injured in a way that would justify why you didn’t live up to your potential?

Everybody, apparently: No?

Run into a cave and break your ankle so that people have to come find you and they see you lying at the bottom of this beautiful cave and maybe there’s a waterfall and the light from the crystals makes you look really beautiful and they say “Are you okay?” and you say “I think so” and they say “oh my God have you been here alone this whole time with a broken ankle” and you say “it’s okay” and they say “you’re so brave” and you are brave and you look so beautiful surrounded by cave crystals and everyone stands over you and says “oh wow” and “you poor beautiful thing” and “I’m so sorry we let you run into the cave but I’m so glad we found you” and let them carry you home and promise to be your best friends forever and that everything’s their fault and also they named the cave after you and you’re prettier than all of your enemies and your enemies all died of jealousy while you were in the cave.

I genuinely don't think there's been a day in the last few years that I haven't had a daydream about lacking the vitamin

If you live in a red state/red district and have never contacted your Republican reps before, now is a golden time to start. Y'all know liberal talking points won't phase them, so you need to be calling/emailing and speaking their language. Demand to know why the Republicans are soft on crime with Trump pardoning the Jan 6ers. Demand to know why Republicans hate Christian values by their attacking the Catholic Church. Demand to know why your tax payer money is going to incarcerate illegal immigrants in prisons. Gulf of America? More like why not the Gulf of Lower Egg Prices?

Call them. Most importantly, speak their language.

[afurioushawk]

This actually goes double if you live in a purple district btw. Republicans in swing districts are the ones in Congress living with the most fear.

Call them up and say, "Hey, I demand to know why my hard-earned tax dollars going to give illegal aliens three hots-and-a-cot when us real Americans can't even afford groceries!"

The more you're willing to speak MAGA, the more they're likely to listen.

[afurioushawk]

If you have one of the super crazy reps - like, say, a member of the Freedom Caucus - my advice is to go with the, "Why the fuck did Trump pardon the cop killers?! What happened to Blue Lives Matter?!" angle.

[masseffectdoctor]

You CAN also swing the church angle too. Any defanging of ICE is valuable. For example:

"Hello [MAGA CUNT HERE],

I am someone you represent in your district and I have been appalled by the anti-christian values of the actions of ICE. The church is a place of SACRED worship. I know they're here illegally but when they are worshiping our god in heaven they have a sanctuary in prayer, as they should by the teachings of the Bible. God houses all of his children. I'm not saying do not ensure they face the consequences of their crimes, but everything has a time and place and this is NOT it.

It would not be right for a priest to speak of what you've shared in confession, and it cannot be right to stop someone from their faith.

On top of this there are OTHER families present who are trying to worship. Even if the immigrants are not of your concern you are impeding the ability of people to simply attend and worship our Lord and Savior and for this I cannot stay silent, and for this I will not stand.

I have spoken with other members of our congregation who are here legally and are law abiding citizens and they have expressed similar sentiments so I know this is not just my own personal feelings but the feelings shared by our community built around our faith and love of our neighbors.

I look forward to your prompt response to this. Thank you."

And if you wanna get them a lil shook I recommend sending emails with different writing styles, or have other send them, that say about the same thing. A united community makes them concerned for their power if they don't actually hold any values and beliefs (i.e. them being a grifter) so it can make a difference to shake them that way. Internal division in number

[wyf-of-bathe]

Another Republican angle is the Business Conservative/Fiscal Republican. Trump sure likes spending money and Elon Musk has his hands in the fucking US Treasury.

But the most important tip:

Look up what committees your Senators/Representatives are on. Depending on what committees they're on is how you choose which angle to approach them. ESPECIALLY if they're the Committee Chair or Ranking Member.

Example: One of my Senators is, very tragically, the Zodiac Killer Ted Cruz. Ted Cruz is currently the chair of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, so you bet your ass I'm going to go the Business Conservative/Fiscal Republican angle. I'm also going to bring up the planned downsizing of the federal civil service when the FAA is already very understaffed and we just had two aviation disasters in as many days.

I'm not going to be rude. I hate his fucking guts so much but I am going to be very nice, polite, and even supportive. I will not tell him that if he died tomorrow, I'd drink to his death. I am going to be a nice, but deeply concerned, constituent and I might just lie and tell him that I voted for him last election. I might even buy some fucking stationary tomorrow and mail him a letter because those tend to be taken more seriously and get more attention than emails.

My other Senator sits on subcommittees that deal with issues like international trade and relations - DEFINITELY bringing up the tariffs with him - and on Intelligence, so I'll probably chide him for being willing to confirm Tulsi Gabbard.

Both the House and Senate have numerous committees and resources to find which ones your congressmen are part of.

Senate Committees and members

House Committees (you have to go through the committee sites to find your reps; usually it's easier to find your rep first and check their site - or Google - for the committees they're on)

When there was mass outrage over the economic impact of the government spending freeze the GOP actually pushed back and Trump reversed course and unfroze some of the funds. When we fight we win. But we gotta fight and fight hard.

Democracy is government of the people by the people and for the people and the people are its last defense. Everyone has a role to play. Stand up for your freedoms. What you do now will determine what kind of world’s future generations live in.

[charminglyantiquated]

hey guys can you help me find that old portrait of a girl holding a little painting of a naked dude and cracking up about it?? I want to say it’s by Rembrandt but that’s probably not right

[runwildwithme]

It’s “Smiling Girl, a Courtesan, Holding an Obscene Image” by Gerard van Honthorst!!

[charminglyantiquated]

It’s the best painting that exists

[earhartsease]

I don’t know about you, but I really want to know what’s written on there - wait, I found a higher res image, can anyone translate this?

also it’s kind of an amazing little vignette

[kipplekipple]

Hahahaa

Okay it says “who knows my arse from behind” and I will never recover from this

[probablynotcavolo]

OKAY— so i LOVE this painting, it’s in the St. Louis Art Museum, and on a tour i found out the story. it’s not a naked dude, at all. It’s actually a smaller depiction of her, she’s a sex worker! She’s showing off her advertising for her services. It’s a really cool historical example of sex work, and a gorgeous painting to see in person.

[sew-birb]

So that grin is her going:

“That’s me!!”
