Will has always been kind of a cunt but felt bad about it until he met Hannibal then he just said okay murder is probably fine

Embarrassed myself a few days ago and since then I've been periodically going like this

Ignore the part where he gets naked that's not part of it.

i know the way people talk about their pets now is probably how we’ve been doing it for all of history. a cat owner in ancient rome saw their cat lounging on the dining pillows and commented “he thinks himself to be the senator claudius 🤣”

[sarah-ankh]

He thinks himself the senator Claudius

actually pigs shouldn't be at pride even outside of uniform. fuck those guys

[bebsi-cola]

if you decide to become a police officer then that outweighs any other marginalised identity you can rustle up like. not sorry, who asked you to willingly become a pig

[pekkhum]

I have heard of black people warning their kids that the race of a police officer is cop and you should not expect solidarity from them. The same applies to other types of minorities.

The sexuality of a police officer is cop.

The gender of a police officer is cop.

When you become the enforcer and protector of capital, you are making the deal to be slightly favored by the system over others like you, in exchange for being its servant. Your solidarity is with the system that you serve, even if it hates you.

If you want solidarity with those the system hates, you cannot be the system's servant and defender.

you can always tell how little people actually care about art based on how much they hate modern/contemporary art

[alphauke]

''bring back renaissance art'' I bet your ass you can't even definitively tell that movement apart from others

[alphauke]

"posing next to art we think we can do'' can you though. can you

[bixels]

>sees a post about the superiority of renaissance art.

>it's baroque.

getting teary eyed thinking about gerda gottlieb's paintings of her wife after she transitioned

[gardengnosticator]

[narcissus-thee-squeekual]

thing is, for a lot of these paintings it wasn’t “after” lily elbe’s transition. there was no after to it. the one op posted was painted in 1928. this was 2 years before lily legally changed her name and began undergoing revolutionary gender affirming procedures. unfortunately she died due to complications of an experimental uterine transplant in 1931.

up until that point, during the day lily continued to dress in masculine clothing and even attended galleries showing gottlieb’s paintings of her. which was kind of iconic. she got to stand in a room full of people who were marveling her beauty, not knowing she was right next to them. it must have been such a cute little secret for them as a couple.

here’s gerda and lilly together

not to mention that for most people there is no real “after” to a transition. especially for these trans historical figures who had to balance identity and safety at all times.

i think having a wife paint these portraits must have felt really amazing for lily. to be able to see herself through the eyes of someone who loved her. i’m very much seconding op on the getting teary eyed.

here are some of my favorite gottleib lily paintings

“i’m autistic” = 👍

“i’m a little autistic” = mark of the beast for annoying people

“touch of the ‘tism” = punishable offense

They should invent a method of asking for reassurance that nobody secretly hates you that doesn't make people secretly hate you.

my loved ones talking about me in a true crime documentary after I’m murdered: he was a miserable bastard. he had a way of pissing people off by standing there. the police asked if he had any enemies and we said ‘everyone’
