one thing this show clearly doesn’t get, which a lot of modern portrayals of premodern times don’t seem to get, is that in a preindustrial society where literally everything is handmade, people preferred (and prefer!) to take a little longer to make things beautiful. if you’re personally spinning and weaving and stitching every inch your new coat, you might as well take an extra afternoon to dye the fibers a really lovely yellow with some onion scraps, and spend a little longer to embroider on a nice pattern. if you’re personally carving every angle of every chair in your house, you may as well slow down and carve them with a beautiful and culturally significant design, especially if you know your great-grandchildren will be sitting in them. in a hyperconsumerist industrial society it’s expected that you just buy what you can afford and settle for however beautiful or ugly the thing happens to be, but it wasn’t always that way. the vast majority of people in the premodern world were hobbyist artists, and they dressed in and sat on and slept under and smoked with and ate out of their and their ancestors’ canvases every day

This is the interior of a modern Kyrgyz yurt. Btw. Those tapestries on the walls and ceiling are usually made of felted wool and are for insulation (traditionally they were also for weather-proofing, but now that's usually done with plastic sheeting). The ribbing is traditionally bright red and the rugs and tapestries are also usually brightly colored. Many people involved in animal husbandry still live in these for part of the year, and some year-round.

The past and the culturally in-touch present were and are extremely colorful.

first taino marvel rivals character tomorrow🔥

As a Latino, hearing people go “OH MY GOD DID THE HOOD JUST CALL THIS CHARACTER MOMMY!?” pisses me off to no end.

MOMMY AND MAMÍ ARE VERY DIFFERENT.

Mommy, when used in the English vernacular as slang, it’s commonly used as a sexual nickname for a commonly older, dominant woman.

Mamí, is an endearing, common word used to address women in Hispanic cultures. It’s used similarly to “babe” or “sweetheart.”

Same thing goes for Papí and Daddy. Translations are literal to each other, yes, but they aren’t used in the same way.

RESPECT AND LOVE MY LATINO KING 🇵🇷

Library Freedom Project has a lot of handouts about AI on their Resources page

This is relevant to art also because it is becoming increasingly difficult to find reference images online during simple searches.

Please sign and share this petition if you care about small artists and their businesses! This law is very raw and caused so many people already to shut down their stores. I was planning to open a shop in November too, and until any changes will be implemented, all of my work in the recent year was for nothing.
