[Painting of Death as a spectral nanny taking a child and infant away from their bereaved family. A detail shows the familyâs house number is 1918.]
I never realized this until seeing the detail, but this painting is most likely about the flu pandemic.
itâs really interesting seeing death portrayed as a womanÂ
Especially a a nurturer rather than a destroyer

Milky Way and Exploding Meteor : Tonight the Perseid Meteor Shower reaches its maximum. Grains of icy rock will streak across the sky as they evaporate during entry into Earths atmosphere. These grains were shed from Comet Swift-Tuttle. The Perseids result from the annual crossing of the Earth through Comet Swift-Tuttles orbit, and are typically the most active meteor shower of the year. Although it is hard to predict the level of activity in any meteor shower, in a clear dark sky an observer might see a meteor a minute. This years Perseids occur just before a new Moon and so the relatively dark sky should make even faint meteors visible. Meteor showers in general are best be seen from a relaxing position, away from lights. Featured here is a meteor caught exploding two weeks ago above Austria next to the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy. via NASA

Mikhail Kalashnikov, the man who created the AK-47 assault rifle, wrote a letter in which he professed his guilt and regret over his creation shortly before his death in 2013. He explained that he felt responsible for all of the deaths caused by his creation: âThe pain in my soul is unbearable. I keep asking myself the same unsolvable question: If my assault rifle took peopleâs lives that means that I, Mikhail Kalashnikov, ⊠am responsible for peopleâs deaths.â He expressed that he wished he would have created a tool to benefit farmers instead.
What kind of extreme lack of foresight
what did he possibly think would hapoen when he designed it?????
Not that Iâm a fan of guns or anything, But Kalashnikov designed the AK47 during world war 2. He came up with the gun to be more reliable in combat against the Nazis.Â
The quote is specifically about the guns âuncontrolled distributionâ. Â
Only the black cat is unfazed. Â From Kladderadatsch, 1934.

Fun History Fact: The overwhelming majority of cowboys in the U.S. were Indigenous, Black, and/or Mexican persons. The omnipresent white cowboy is a Hollywood studio concoction meant to uphold the mythology of white masculinity.
Thank you.
I will always re-blog this
I think it was high school when i overheard some white girl put on her best semi-disgusted and confused voice and go âwhy do so many Mexicans dress up like cowboys?â and I had to be the person to tell her.
Why do you think the whites say buckero? Cause they couldnât say vaquero.
I dunno if I reblogged this before but fuck it, y'all gon learn today.
Teach the children.
also, cowboy culture was hella gay. like, write-poems-about-your-cowboy-partner gay.
IF people acknowledge it, they play the necessity cardâ there werenât any women out on the range, so they had to âresort to men.â this claim completely erases 1) the romantic (not just sexual) writings of actual cowboys, 2) the acknowledgement of cowboysâ potential homosexual activity by writers at the time, and 3) the possibility that some men would deliberately become cowboys with the intent to seek out homosexual encounters.
no one wants to admit it, but cowboy culture was just. so inherently gay.
Im here for the gay POC cowboys
