I love antagonists who mirror the protagonist instead of contrast them. They are the most extreme version of the protagonist, someone with the same dreams and beliefs who believed these things could only be achieved by the sharpest tools. The crushing weight of knowing that could be you.

I know that cis men are capable of being great people which is why it’s so frustrating when they suck. Your gender isn’t inherently bad at doing the dishes. You’re just a thoroughly unpleasant person.

When I started taking T I didn’t magically forget how to use a broom, which my single dad taught me how to use. There’s nothing about testosterone or having male bits that makes your brain incapable of comprehending super duper complicated concepts such as boiling water or not being sexist. You’re an adult. Put the curry in the glass container, change your son’s diaper, and don’t harass your waitress. It’s not that complicated.

[what-even-is-thiss]

It also frustrates me when I hear women say stuff like “You know how men are” no, I don’t actually. I know how your man is being right now and you don’t deserve to have to put up with that kind of behavior. If your man fakes incompetence when doing the dishes, leave his ass. There are plenty of men who don’t do that.

The first-ever documented case of biofluorescence in Tasmanian devils was captured at the Toledo Zoo. Because special filters are needed to see the reemitted light, many biofluorescent organisms have gone unnoticed until recently. Still, it's kind of spooky yet beautiful.

“How about a giant, metallic octopus attacking a rook?”

“Perfect.”

that’s cool as fuck though

I’m very excited for my latest craft experiment, where I rhythmically slap sale rank oil paint onto a canvas and I see how long it takes to dry so that I can finally touch the paint textures I stare at so longingly in museums. 12 hours in, still wet. I am beginning to think this might take longer than I thought which you can imagine is quite a burden, as I am absolutely horned up to rub this paint.

[andhumanslovedstories]

You guys sound like you know what you’re talking about but I’m gonna touch it every twenty minutes just to be sure

[andhumanslovedstories]

I’ve put this canvas to age in the basement like a fine wine, along another recent masterpiece of mine “I put the paint on me hand and I slap the canvas like a bongo”

[andhumanslovedstories]

Paint slapped on 6/9, as of 6/22 (I mean actually it was a couple days ago but I didn’t fully check the dryness then so I can’t be sure):

It is rubbery feeling and the peaks of paint move when you flick them. The texture is not at ALL what I expected tbh and it makes me excited to try a different experiment, thick brush strokes, you know, those mad thicc ones that swirl real good

Here’s an additional shot with my coffee cup for a further sense of scale so people will understand that these canvases are small and therefore stop sending me asks about my supposedly gorilla sized hands, you bastards, you rotten bastards scared of the hands your minds gave me

I don’t know shit about art but isn’t this like a great example of art that pushes the boundaries of what art is? Like you’ve got your canvas with paint on it, but your reason for putting the paint there is totally different than why most people put paint on stuff. It’s like a study on texture or something.

[mazarinedrake]

Agreed, this is really cool and also I love the fact that you really wanted to touch some paint, so you just went out and bought a bunch of paint and made your own painting for touching purposes. That’s striking me as really really cool right now for reasons I can’t entirely articulate. 

[electronicgallery]

For reference: Really thick paint on a piece of art is called impasto. Another really fun way to do it is with a painting knife: you can make each stroke SUPER SMOOTH like cake icing, but with visible, touchable texture between the strokes.

More impasto:

You LITERALLY sat down to watch paint dry…

[jhelenoftrek]

Museums should have stuff like this on display JUST so you can touch it. With a sign like, “Feel me up! I won’t alarm!”

[ms-demeanor]

make good art

[flip-this-table]

Only thing about thick impasto is that the paint can get a bit sharp sometimes. Like, I’ve cut my hand on dried impasto paint because the paint stroke was that pointed. -.-;
