I always say that the thing which sets Sargent apart as a portrait artist is that he draws/paints literally every subject - no matter their gender, social position, life vs representational drawing etc - like he is right that minute realising he's desperately in love with them. And it rules every single time.

Examples pulled just from his Wikipedia page most popular works. Absolutely devastating scenes for bisexuals for over a century

affirmations they will not kill me at work today. it is not in my job description to get killed. if they did kill me at work that would be weird and probably not worth it for them

one of my favorite bits in lord of the rings is something the movies didn't really try to do because it's entirely internal, but sam's carrying the ring and it starts trying to do its work on him, so he's having these intrusive visions of himself marching at the head of a vast and terrible army, and he just starts laughing because, me? samwise gamgee? sam gamgee the general sam gamgee the dark lord are you for real? man i just want to go home and do some gardening. and the ring gets frustrated and it starts trying to figure out other stuff that would actually tempt sam and it's finally like, okay, but hear me out: imagine if you could have...A REALLY REALLY BIG GARDEN

[asneakyfox]

and then he's like, i don't know that sounds like a lot more work than a regular garden actually. why don't we just get on with finding mister frodo

Tumblr is the opiate of the very, very few.

I love how they went for the four classical elements but realized they can’t call a sweet flavored beverage Water

Dear video essay creators. A video analysis is when you analyze a piece of media. No no look at me. A summary, no matter how thorough, is not an analysis. An analysis requires you to draw conclusions about the media such as authorial intent, real-world parallels, discussion about themes/worldbuilding/character motivation, and so much more. You have to stop summarizing something and saying that’s analysis. The Gaylors are doing more critical analysis than you. Is that who you want to lose to? The gaylors?

I find it absolutely hilarious how finnish people have shortened the names for numbers (like if u count fast)

1 = Yksi = yy

2 = Kaksi = kaa

3 = kolme = koo

4 = neljä = nee

5 = viisi = vii

6 = kuusi = kuu

7 = seitsemän = see

8 = kahdeksan = kasi

9 = yhdeksän = ysi

10 = kymmenen = kymppi

11 = yksitoista = yytoo

12 = kaksitoista = kaatoo

Ect ect

20 = kaksikymmentä = kakskyt

30 = kolmekymmentä = kolkyt

Ect ect

But 100 = sata = sata. We arent insane

Like no brain cells were used

I was mugged by snow white and the seven dwarves the other day. six dwarves now, I suppose. kneed dipshit or dopey or whatever he was called in the eye socket so hard he died before his limp body hit the ground. they all scattered after that. I'll never forget how they wailed his name

[curioscurio]

but you did forget the actual name yelled...
