Passport of the Ukrainian People's Republic belonging to Makar Oliianchuk, 1919
I've been playing with paper cutting.
ID: layers of cut paper form a gallifreyan landscape with yellow sky and twin suns in the background, brown hills and red fields and the Citadel in the midground, and dark purple silhouettes of mostly leafless trees and two figures holding hands in the foreground. A few metallic silver leaves fall from the trees. End ID
Only if she says it tho
You ever just… yell about #8th doctor??
something about tyrion lannister—the man who treats sex workers like property, fantasizes about raping and killing his sister, slaps his teenage lover for mocking him, makes his child bride undress and proceeds to grope her, strangles his lover to death for humiliating him, rapes multiple enslaved women (on his way to the literal breaker of chains)—being haunted by the question of “where do whores go?” is genuinely horrifying.
after a lifetime of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse against women—particularly sex workers—now you want to know where whores go? now you’re finally starting to consider them beyond the context of sexual objectification? to understand what could have happened to tysha, tyrion has to understand a group of people who have never even been human to him (and still aren’t, considering that he rapes two enslaved women before asking them this question, though he doesn’t get an answer from either woman). even regarding tysha, tyrion only starts asking “where do whores go?” after finding out that she wasn’t a sex worker and therefore didn’t deserve to be gang raped. tyrion only recognizes her humanity when she’s once again defined as HIS wife.
tyrion will never know where whores go because he doesn’t deserve to. maybe he’ll find peace or maybe he won’t, but he’s never going to find tysha.
and yeah, tyrion’s misogyny and abusive behavior doesn’t exist in a vacuum. he’s a victim of sexual violence at the hands of his father. he resents women for the revulsion and mockery he sees in their eyes when they look at him. he treats sex workers like objects because they’re the only group of people that he can exercise control over. ALL of that is true. and he’s still never going to know where whores go.
I really hate the fact that russians can choose to be politically aware, while ukranians, indigenous russians and peoples who were otherwise damaged by russia HAVE to be politically informed. a russian person can choose to research holodomor or cultural genocide of crimean tatars, but ukranians and crimean tatars know about this since their childhood, they have to know about all the monstrosities russia has committed towards their people. russians are privileged, this is a privilege.
you talk to a russian person, mention some genocide, war crime or ethnic cleansing, and they get so surprised and angry at you simply because they don't know or don't believe in these events
why is it my duty to educate them, if they are too lazy to open some normal history book and read something about their own crimes through tons of bullshit they have in their heads called russian mentality?
Just saw a russian artist's commission info saying: payment only through Boosty due to the situation in my country.
The "situation" is your country committing genocide against Ukraine.
You can't even be honest on your own Tumblr page. And your clients might end up funding, through the taxes you pay with their money or through your own donations to your country's army (because some westerners quickly forget that a person can actually support their country's actions, especially when they phrase things like this), the continued killing of ukrainians.
For God's sake, at least ask about the political views of a russian artist before commissioning them. If you're from Europe or the US, you're literally paying someone whose country is at war with yours too.
“The situation”.

Just remembered I had this screenshot on my phone somewhere and had to post it here because it really speaks to me
Poor Johannes had been generally regarded as insane for some time, and to be sure, his doings and dealings, particularly his artistic activities, contrasted so sharply with all that is held to be reasonable and proper, that his mental disintegration could hardly be doubted. His thought-processes became increasingly eccentric and disjointed. Shortly before his flight from the town, for example, he spoke frequently about the ill-fated love of a nightingale for a purple carnation, although the whole affair (according to him) was nothing but an adagio, and this in turn was actually a single long-held note sung by Juliet, which transported Romeo, filled with love and happiness, to the highest heaven. He finally disclosed to me that he was resolved upon death, and intendedfift stab himself in the nearest forest with an augmented fifth.

Reminder that russians have kidnapped thousands of Ukrainian children and relocated them to russia where children are being "re-educated" to erase their Ukrainian identity and are being raised as russians.
