if you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to live in the midwest, this is it.
You missed some of the best ones
the best part about it is that the art installation isn’t actually called the Bean. It’s called Cloud Gate, and artist Anish Kapoor (yes, THAT Anish Kapoor) hates that we call it the Bean.
But i mean, look at it. It’s a bean.
How could you forget this one though
I HAD NO FUCKING IDEA THAT THE BEAN WAS CREATED BY ANISH KAPOOR.
someone help me why is anish kapoor important what did he do?
Alright sit down for some Art World Drama bcause this is what I live for.
So, sometime last year (?) science invented Vantablack, which is the darkest possible shade of black. Art world got incredibly excited. But as it needs to be very carefully made in a lab, it’s hard to get a hold of, and is extremely expensive. Enter Anish Kapoor, aka FuckFace McGee. Anish Kapoor buys the rights to Vantablack. He is the only human being on the planet that can legally use it, and he’s kind of a prick about it.
Art world is not thrilled with that.
Enter Stuart Semple.
Stuart Semple is an artist, and also makes pigments to sell in his free time. Stuart Semple is astoundingly pissed about this Vantablack nonsense, and Anish Kapoor’s dickery. Stuart Semple makes a new pigment, the brightest shade of pink ever, called Pinkest Pink, and puts it for sale on the internet. To be bought by everybody except Anish Kapoor. Literally, to purchase, you need to confirm that you are not Anish Kapoor, do not associate with him, and will not sell or give the pigment to Anish Kapoor or his associates. Art world has a good laugh, everyone buys Pinkest Pink because it’s awesome, and damn it we deserve something.
Anish Kapoor however is a penis, and will not take this lying down, because HOW DARE he not have literally everything.
Anish Kapoor gets his London associates to buy him a thing of Pinkest Pink, and being such a classy human being, posts a picture to instagram of him with his middle finger covered in Pinkest Pink, captioned with “Up yours. #pink”
Everyone flips shit, because. Y’know. Fuck that guy. Especially Stuart Semple. For context here, Anish Kapoor is one of the richest artists on the planet, and has repeatedly been referred to as everything wrong with the art world, and the epitome of the art worlds elitism problem. He’s a giant douchebag. Meanwhile Stuart Semple makes pigments just to get them out there. He turns 0 profit from his now enourmously popular pigments.
Stuart Semple launches an investigation as to who the fuck leaked Pinkest Pink, and plans to strike back. He does so by releasing two new products. First is Diamond Dust, which is a glitter made from glass, so that a painting is still visible after it’s applied, but glitters like a mofo. It’s the most reflective glitter out there, and is available to everyone who isn’t Anish Kapoor. And it being made of glass, if you stick your finger in there, it’s going to hurt quite a bit, so that was Stuart Semple’s way of saying “shove your middle finger in this, asshole, see what happens”. Except without saying that, because he can get an insult across while still being fucking classy.
He also releases Black 2.0, created with the help of over a thousand artists worldwide.
Black 2.0 is the answer to Vantablack. Black 2.0 is a slightly less black black, but looks functionally the same to the human eye. It’s completely safe, smells like cherries, and costs four pounds. Vantablack is highly toxic, potentially explosive, needs to be applied in a special laboratory and sealed properly, can’t be moved across borders, can reach 300 degrees celsius if you’re not extremely careful, and costs thousands of dollars. Anish Kapoor is the only human being who can use Vantablack. He is the only human being who cannot use Black 2.0.
So I think we can guess who got the better deal.
And thus the feud ends, Kapoor defeated.
…But not quite.
Kapoor, in this entire afair, has made exactly two comments to the public. The first being his charming message about aquiring Pinkest Pink, the second being claiming to Buzzfeed that he and his small army of lawyers will be suing Semple, an extremely poor artist who cannot afford a lawyer.
No lawsuit has been made yet, fyi.
The point is, Kapoor is a prick, and doesn’t like talking to the lower classes. So one day in July 2017, he decides he needs another floor on his London studio apartment, and starts making arrangements to have it built. His neighbors are fucking pissed, because this will ruin the light of their apartments. They call to Semple to save them, or at the very least piss Kapoor off some more.
Semple answers to the call, and releases two new paints, Phaze and Shift, as always, banned to Kapoor. They change colours, Phaze with temperature, and Shift is just iridescent. Shift needs to be painted over Black 2.0 to work, and Phaze just works on its own.
So that’s been the art world for the last two years.
Basically, get fucked Anish Kapoor your bean sucks and so does your vantablack.
Stuart Semple is organising a bean-kissing event for Anish Kapoor’s birthday.
Reblogging for “By attending this event you confirm that you are not Anish Kapoor, you are in no way affiliated with Anish Kapoor, you are not attending on behalf of Anish Kapoor or an associate of Anish Kapoor. To the best of your knowledge, information, and belief this event will not be attended by Anish Kapoor.”
ALSO HE JUST POSTED THIS!!!!!! LIGHTEST LIGHT!
I know this isn’t my art blog but this entire post gives me life
im sorry is that man holding a real actual miniature star in his hands
Y’all missed the best part about the lightest light, called aptly ‘Lit’. This is from their product page:
Two things:
1. “Anish Kapoor is however a penis” is the best line in this post.
2. I wish to be half as petty and half as awesome as Stuart Semple
I hope Stuart Semple is making a lot of money. What a good person.
Go support him the paint’s are pretty cheap and you get the added bonus of being one of many to help piss off Anish Kapoor
He is my fucking role model for pettiness oh my god
It got better! I’m also excited because he just released biodegradable glitter in non plastic containers! How amazing is that?! Stuart Semple, good guy for the planet and artists, fighter against the rich elite artist like asshole Kapoor.
An older project, but he also did this:
(x)
oh dude hes metal as fuck
Every addition to this post is better than the last.
Me, being gay and having my blood drawn: so…what do you need my blood for again?
Stuart Semple: gonna make an anti-government t-shirt with it.
Me:
Me: :)
Be a Stuart Semple in 2020. Use your petty to inspire and drive you.
Kapoor the color hoarder
Also, he’s started #pinktober now
@thatsthat24
Redd is sus. I had a lot of fun drawing this one. Hopefully tomorrow's prompt will go just as well
@thatsthat24 I couldn't decide between these 2 ideas for today's Sanderstober prompt so I did both. The first reference is da Vinci's 'Lady with an Ermine' and the second is Norman Rockwell's 'Harvest Moon'
@thatsthat24 Day 7 prompt gave me this super cute idea. And of course Gir would be drinking cactus juice. It is after all the quenchiest.
The Astronomer and The Florist (Chapter 10)
Summery: Logan starts his job at the college, Virgil takes him lunch, and Mr. Sanders invites both of them to dinner.
Ships: Analogical & Royality
Warning: fear, intense flirting
-let me know if I need to add more warnings-
(I have decided I was lying before, I will add quite a few more chapters… I got re-inspired 😅💜)
*ALSO: There is some shameless flirting, and please keep in mind that I wrote this in 30 minutes at 2 in the morning*
—-
Logan has had a busy month. He quit his job at the conservatory, went on a wonderful first date with Virgil, went through the acceptance and training process to be able to teach at the college, and has just finished his finished his second lesson for Friday.
He has two more lessons left before he has completed his first week of being an official professor.
Logan was just about to head to the dining hall when he heard a knock on his door.
“One moment!” Logan called, organizing papers on his desk and turning around. “How can I hel- Virgil?”
Virgil smirked. “Hey Lo, how’s it going?” Logan fought the butterflies in his stomach that Virgil’s smirk awakened by straightening his tie.
“It’s been going quite well actually. I have about two and a half hours before my next lesson starts and I am enjoying my new job way more than my old one.”
Virgil then nodded knowingly, and looked around the classroom with a sort of awed look. “Your classroom is huge! I’m so happy for you Logan!”
Logan smiled, then decided that there was no one around, so screw it. He stepped towards Virgil and placed his palm on Virgil’s cheek. Virgil leaned into Logan’s hand.
“I’ve missed you, starlight.”
Virgil blushed, and Logan felt very accomplished. Virgil grabbed Logan’s hand, kissed it, and then smiles. “I’ve missed you too.”
“AHEM?”
Logan jumped, and Virgil partially hid behind Logan. Once Logan saw who it was though, he had to stifle a laugh.
“Oh, hello Mr. Sanders. How are you doing today?” Virgil flinched, and Mr. Sanders raised an eyebrow. “He was your favorite Professor right?” Virgil whispered, trying and failing to not have Mr. Sanders hear what he was saying. “Should I feel like I’m meeting the parents or…” Virgil trailed off, and Logan laughed. Mr. Sanders just looked confused.
“Logan, care for introductions?” “Oh, right, sorry. Virgil, this is Mr. Sanders, and yes, he was my favorite Professor. Mr. Sanders, this is Virgil, and he’s my boyfriend.”
As soon as Logan said “Virgil,” Mr. Sanders had a knowing look. “Ah, Virgil!” Mr. Sanders shook Virgil’s hand. “So, your the one who made the f-bomb bouquet and convinced Logan to try and take my job.”
Virgil looked like he would very much like to be anywhere but here. “Oh, uhhh…”
Mr. Sanders just busted out laughing and pulled Virgil in for a hug. “I’m just teasing, I think you are awesome! You should hear when Logan goes on spirals about you! I’ve never heard Logan talk so passionately about anything, and I used to teach his major!” Mr. Sanders chuckled.
Logan was blushing when Virgil looked at him. “Virgil,” Logan said, attempting to change the topic, “you never did say, what brings you here?”
Virgil smirked, and Logan immediately regrets his phrasing. “You.” Logan blushed, Mr. Sanders awed, and Virgil chuckled.
“I haven’t really seen you since our date 3 weeks ago. I know we’ve texted and you’ve been busy, but I was hoping to take you out to lunch.”
Logan was stunned by Virgil offer. He had meant it when he said he missed Virgil, and he was delighted that Virgil came all the way to his job to surprise him for lunch.
Virgil started shuffling his feet, and Logan realized that he hadn’t yet answered. “I would love to have lunch with you Virgil.” Virgil smiled.
Mr. Sanders cleared his throat, and both Logan and Virgil looked at him, suddenly remembering he was there. Logan looked faintly confused and Virgil looked, well, basically terrified.
“If I may, why don’t y’all come to my house for dinner tonight? Logan, I could give you the rest of the textbooks I was telling you about, and Virgil, I would love to get to know you better.”
Virgil looked at Logan, giving him permission to make the decision. Logan then accepted Mr. Sanders invitation.
“Excellent! Be there at 7 and I shall serve you the finest enchiladas Hello Fresh has to offer!”
Everyone laughed, then Mr. Sanders left, and Logan and Virgil headed out to have lunch.
Virgil let Logan pick the restaurant this time, and Logan happily suggested Chili’s. Once they ordered, they started chatting.
“Do you like your students?” Logan nodded and talked about how there are only around two troublemakers per class, but he is getting it under control.
“They are all very bright, and I have enjoyed teaching them thus far.” “That’s great Lo! I’m glad you are happy.” Virgil said and smiled.
“So,” Logan started, getting ready to ask something that has been bothering him. “How has the flower shop been? How are to bouquet orders? DoesPattonstillwanttokillme?” Virgil laughed and teased Logan a bit. “Oh, good, fine, and what was that last part?” Logan just looked away.
“Don’t worry, moonbeam. I promised I would protect you from Pat and I will. Besides, he loves the fact that you involved him in the date planning, so your good in his book. For now.” Virgil smirked at Logan, enjoying his blush.
Their food came out and they started eating, and Logan decided that Virgil is acting much to smug for his taste. But how to make him flus- oh!
Logan grabbed Virgil’s hand, causing Virgil to look into his eyes. “So starlight, we never did talk about a second date. You would like one, wouldn’t you?”
Virgil practically melted. He blushed at the nickname, and then nodded. “I really liked Stargazing, but how would you feel about… a sleepover?” Virgil asked shyly.
Logan’s smile grew. “I think that is a wondrous idea! One of my favorite things about our first date was me waking up with you in my arms.”
Logan was loving how simply telling the truth made his boyfriend so red.
“I liked that too.” Virgil said, feeling as if his cheeks are on fire. He knows what Logan is doing, and now it’s his turn.
“We could talk, watch movies, cuddle, and just basically enjoy eachothers presence. And maybe,” Virgil says, leaning closer to Logan. “Maybe we could also work on your aim. We don’t want you missing your target again, do we?”
Logan is more red than a Solanum lycopersicum. He knows exactly what Virgil is referring to. Virgil is simply smirking. “I mean, if you don’t want to I c-“
“Virgil,” Logan says slowly. “It is imperative that you choose your next words carefully.”
Virgil tilted his head. “And why is that?” Logan smirked, and Virgil immediately blushed, but in an afraid way.
“Because starlight, if you claim to want to ‘practice aim’ as you put it, with anyone else, I will simply have to find a way to remind you of how you are MY boyfriend, and how my best friend is the King of extraTM romantic gestures, and I WILL make a statement, if that is what you wish.”
Virgil is both touched and terrified. “Please, no statement, but… I wouldn’t mind a gesture.” Virgil mumbles the last part, a bit embarrassed.
Logan stood up, walked next to Virgil, and smiled. “That, can be arranged.” Logan kissed Virgil’s cheek, and then headed towards the restroom. Virgil buried his head in his hands, hiding his smile.
He felts tap on his shoulder, and he turned to look at the person who dared to interrupt his embarrassing self reflection. Suddenly, Logan was kissing him, on the mouth.
Virgil barely began kissing back before Logan pulled back and whispered in his ear, “Sorry, I missed. You’re right, we have to work on that.” Logan winked, and then headed to pay for the meal.
Virgil decided that he couldn’t wait for their next date.

I am at a standstill on this fic. I can go one of two ways.
I end it at chapter 10 with giant fluff or major angst
I continue it with small, fluffy (or anggsty???) insights at Logan and Virgil’s life for about 4 or more chapters (probably going through 2 years), and then end it in a finale.

The Astronomer and The Florist
Summery: Logan gets passed up for a promotion in favor of the boss’s nephew, and he gets Virgil’s help to say ‘fuck you’ in flowers. (It’s better than it sounds, I promise)
Ships: Analogical & Royality
Warning: (none?) -let me know if I need to add a warning-
(this is currently a oneshot but I will add more if people like it!)
—-
It was quite a loud day in May, cars were honking, doors were being slammed shut, and Logan was yelling at Roman through his phone.
“I just can’t comprehend the gall of that… that… COTTON HEADED NINNY MUFFIN!” “Woah now Logan,” Roman said, trying not to let his amusement show in his voice, “you kiss your mother with that mouth?” “Of course Roman, what else would I kiss my mother with?” Logan grumbled.
Roman rolled his eyes, forgetting that his friend can’t see him. “Nevermind. What are you wanting to do? You can’t exactly trash talk your boss’s nephew to him and not expect consequences, especially at a party with all of your colleagues watching.”
Logan thought for a moment. Roman did have a point, and he knew that Roman was speaking from experience. “Well, I certainly wouldn’t want to make a scene, but maybe I can do something subtlety.” Logan went silent for a minute, then a thought came to him.
“Hey Roman, didn’t you say that your boyfriend is a floral vendor?” “Yeah,” Roman says, slightly confused, “Patton owns a flower shop just off Main Street, why?” Logan inserted the directions into google maps while still talking to Roman. “I’ve been learning a bit about the language of flora. So I am now going to give Michael a bouquet that tells him how incompetent I think he is, without directly telling him.”
Roman laughed, strangely proud of his friend. “Okay, call me back after you have gotten your hate bouquet.” Logan rolled his eyes, agreed to do just that, and hung up with Roman, walking over to the brightly colored building. The sign on the door indicated that the shop was still open for a few hours, so Logan slipped in.
The bell over the door rang, alerting the quiet, empty shop to a new customer. Logan walked over to a curly blonde man standing in front of the counter. The man smiled at Logan, and held out his hand.
“Hi! You must be Logan! Roman had just texted me that you would be stopping by. It is nice to meet you, Roman has said a lot about you! All good things, all good things!” The bubbly blond that could only be Patton rambled. Logan smiled softly, shaking Patton’s hand.
“Salutation. You are correct, I am Logan. Roman has spoken of you quite fondly as well.” Patton smiled even wider, if that was possible. “So Logan, what can I do for you?” Logan clasped his hands in front of him, and looked Patton dead in the eye. “I require a bouquet that will tell my boss’s nephew just how much of an imbecile and simpleton I find him.”
Patton’s smile dropped a bit, and he started fiddling with the straps on his apron. “I don’t know much about nonpositive flower language, but my friend Virgil is in the back, and I think he could help you. Would you like me to go get him?” Logan nodded, and Patton headed to the back to get Virgil.
Logan felt his phone buzz, and he took it out of his pocket to see who had texted him.
ROMAN: Make sure u ask how 2 passive-aggressively say f u in flower XD
Logan rolled his eyes at his friend’s awful grammar. He pocketed his phone, and looked up just in time to see Patton coming towards him with another male. The male had a purple shirt on under his black apron, and swept his hair out of his eyes when he caught Logan’s gaze. “Logan,” Patton said, “this is Virgil, he should be able to help you with your request.” Virgil gave Logan a two-fingered salute. “Sup Logan? So, what is this strange request?”
Logan thought of Roman text and decided to try it out. “I need to know who to passive-aggressively say fuck you in flowers.” Patton blanched. Virgil froze for a moment, and then bust out laughing. Logan suddenly remembered that he is, in fact, very gay.
“Patton, can you go finish up the displays I was working on in the back? I definitely have this one.” Virgil said, still slightly laughing. Patton grinned, still slightly shocked at Virgil laughing in front of a stranger, and nodded. “No problem Virge.”
Virgil then looked at Logan, and took in his appearance. Virgil doesn’t typically like people in button down shirts and a tie, but he has to admit that Logan fills everything nicely, and makes his gay heart flutter. “So,” Virgil says, trying to stop his thoughts, “may I ask why you require such an insulting bouquet?”
Logan grimaced. “My boss passed me up for a promotion in favor of a person three years my junior, with far less knowledge, simply because the person is the boss’s nephew.” Virgil offered a look of sympathy. “Man, that sucks. What do you do?” “I am an astronomer at the conservatory.”
Virgil smiled. “That’s awesome Logan! I love the sky. I used to go stargazing all the time, but I haven’t been able to lately.” Logan lit up. “The sky is simply fascinating! You should definitely attempt to go stargazing again. I myself go to the Mind Palace Meadow with my telescope Saturday every other week.” “Mind Palace Meadow, huh?” Virgil asked. “I’ve never been out there. I’ll have to go sometime. Anyways, would you like to start on your bouquet?”
Logan blushed, still wanting to talk to Virgil about stargazing, but nodded. “What type of flowers do you have in mind?” Logan asked. “The more depreciating, the better.” Virgil smirked. “Oh, I definitely have a few ideas, come with me.”
Logan followed Virgil to the counter. Virgil took out a notebook and a pen. “Okay, so when do you need the bouquet by?” “The party is on Friday, so preferably Friday at 6.” Logan responded. “Alright, that gives me three days to put everything together. I’m thinking geraniums, because they mean stupidity…” “A lot of those,” Logan mumbled.
Virgil just let out a short huff of a laugh, and nodded. “So definitely geraniums then. There are also foxgloves for insincerity, meadowsweets for uselessness, yellow carnations for disappointment, and orange lilies for hatred. How does all that sound?”
Logan nodded and smiled. “It sounds perfect. How much will I owe you?” Virgil did some calculations and told Logan the amount. Logan nodded, deciding that the price was reasonable. “Thank you so much, Virgil. I truly appreciate it.” Virgil blushed at Logan’s serenity. “It’s no problem Logan, but may I offer you some advice?” Once Logan nodded curiously, Virgil continued. “You seem like you are very good at what you do, and you seem really passionate about it too. I wouldn’t let people who don’t appreciate you take advantage of you.”
Logan smiled, and thanked Virgil. “I will definitely take that into consideration. Thank you Virgil, you are a very good person.” Virgil blushed, looking at his notebook, and decided to take a risk. “Can I have your number?” Logan had an internal gay panic, because 'OH MY GOSH! THIS ATTRACTIVE MALE JUST ASKED FOR MY NUMBER!!!’ Virgil misread Logan’s slightly panicked expression, and freaked.
“You don’t have to of course! It would just help with the bouquet and if anything changes! I could give it to Patton so that you don’t have to talk to me-” Logan held up his hand to shush Virgil.
“I would like to give you my number Virgil,” Logan said, making sure to enunciate the 'you’ so that there were no misunderstandings. “I have no problem with updates on the bouquet. And maybe…” Logan took a deep breath, handing Virgil the card with his number on it while looking deep into Virgis eyes. “Maybe we could talk more about stargazing or something.”
Virgil blushed even more, and looked down at the card in an attempt to hide his smile. “I would like that.” Logan nodded, smiling and relieved. “Well, text me later then,” Logan said as he left. As soon as the door closed, Virgil turned and ran into the back room. Virgil ran up to Patton, and Patton looked at Virgil while smiling. “You were eavesdropping, right?” Virgil asked.
Patton looked a little sheepish, and then nodded. “So, was I right? He is your type right?” Virgil nodded, then thrust the card at Patton. “He is so my type, and I got his number!” Virgil squeaked while Patton hugged him.
—————————————————-
Logan walks out of the flower shop, smiling. He walks to the stop sign, takes out his phone, and opens the texting app.
LOGAN: Roman, everything went great, I have the bouquet order placed.
ROMAN: Thats gr8! All good now?
LOGAN: Yes. I also may have flirted with Patton’s very attractive coworker and then gave him my number before leaving.
ROMAN:!!!
ROMAN: WHY DON’T YOU LEAD WITH THAT SHIT?!?!?
ROMAN: TELL ME EVERYTHING!!!
Logan started walking home, smiling while he answered Roman’s phone call.

I loved it so much. Stargazing nerds Analogical is on of my FAVORITE ship tropes 💜💙
I’m interested in writing another analogical fic, but am still insecure on if anyone will read it or not! 😅
This one will be a flower shop au, where one walks in and asks the other how to passive-aggressively say fuck you in flowers. I have it all planned, I just need to actually write it, and I might make it a multi fic, or just a REALLY long oneshot. 🤷♀️
Soooooo, what do y’all think? Anyone interested?
I would read it at least 50 times 😁
made some mushroom patches and fairy circles! creator ID: MA-6352-6078-6250 :) tag me if you use them, i’d love to see ☺️

Mkay, what's the mechanical stapler's name
I propose Auto if it is not already in use.
Roman and Remus being compared to Mario and Mr. L gave me a cool editing idea.
@thatsthat24
Sanders Sides as Mario characters, anyone?
This gives me the cutest edit idea
I made a new banner for spring. Sanders Bunny Peeps. I love them so much 😁

Logan and Virgil learning Morse Code to communicate, originally as a bit of a joke. But then they started getting into it, and Logan organised a part of each day for just them learning this together.
And it's fun and they goof around a lot doing it and make mistakes and make words that don't make any sense but it's fun
And then eventually they have the hang of it, and take to tapping secret messages to each other around the mind palace.
Virgil taps the table a few times and no one takes notice. Until Logan wordlessly passes him the salt, leaving the others confused but leaves them both smiling.
Virgil having a bad day and not feeling up to socialising. He just puts in his headphones and blocks out the world. At one point he notices Logan come in and sit near him on the couch. After a bit Logan taps a message on his arm. Virgil huffs a small laugh and responds with taps on Logan's arm. This continues until their tapping nonsense making each other laugh.
And neither of them are great with feelings or talking about their feelings. But Logan's teaching Virgil to dance and all he can think is love. Love love love. He's in love with Virgil.
And suddenly Virgil stumbles a bit in the dance and Logan is pulled from his thoughts.
"Do you mean it?" Virgil asks, and Logan is confused. Until he realises he's been tapping on Virgil's shoulder as they danced.
He repeats it, paying more attention, watching his hand on Virgil's shoulder. Dragging his finger in the shape of dashes and tapping dots.

I love you
"Yes" he admits, somewhat embarrassed at the love declaration. And does it again. He can't say it right now but this works. This works.
And Virgil is blushing and grinning and tries to speak but the words get stuck so he simply brings a hand up to hold onto Logan's and reply with the same message.
.. / .-.. --- ...- . / -.-- --- ..-
I love you
And its Logan's turn then to grin and blush, and they return to trying to learn the waltz, once and for all.

1. My analogical heart is weeping from the cuteness
And 2. This kind of thing has been on my mind since seeing Virgil tapping on the binder and only Logan responds in Exploring Nostalgia 💜🖤💙
@thatsthat24 inspired me with his body positivity posts on IG so i drew some plus sized pinup hula girls.
