“Alexander and Hephaestion” by Andrea Camassei

"...Alexander laid a wreath on Achilles' tomb and Hephaestion on Patroclus', hinting that he was the object of Alexander's love, as Patroclus was of Achilles." — Aelian

Damn these heart-rending Greek boy-to-man romances ending in separation by tragic death.

But oh so worth the read.

what-even-is-thiss

You ever think about how they made the minions immortal so that they wouldn’t have to explain how they reproduce

forever-lynx

?? they made the minions immortal???

what-even-is-thiss

Yeah it’s like the same 200 minions forever

what-even-is-thiss

They also trapped them in the Arctic for a long time so they wouldn’t have to show them working for hitler because canonically they’re evil and serve the most evil master around and they’re clearly ok with serving dictators because they were depicted helping Napoleon so the solution to keep hitler out of the story was just to trap the yellow blobs on an iceberg.

what-even-is-thiss

So these things have been alive since the dinosaurs and are basically minor spirits or gods that exist to serve the side of evil and during that whole time they remained grossly incompetent.

Does the universe in despicable me want evil to fail or win? Or are these stupid yellow sexless idiots meant to keep a balance of some kind? Because they do not seem to have a niche in any ecosystem that I know of so their origin must be divine somehow.

since the minions are technically the last of their kind (since they seem to not be able to reproduce) does this mean that they are a protected species?

what-even-is-thiss

See, I don’t think that they’re a species. I think that they’re something else. Because everything else in that universe seems to follow ordinary rules of evolution but the same however many hundred minions keep changing their appearance and not dying. I think that the minions were intelligently designed.

sammy-genderspikeidiot

Roman, my guy, are you really saying that minions are evidence of a god in despicable me lore?

what-even-is-thiss

Not god per se but… something.

jackest-jack

Evil vs good. Evil made minions, good made them stupid yellow blobs

what-even-is-thiss

So are you positing that maybe they came to be because of some primordial yin/yang type battle between energies in the ocean or something?

crap-copper

But they have to reproduce somehow, there are way more minions in the Despicable Me movies than the Minions movie

there's a blueprint hanging on a wall in the first movie that shows Gru developed a way to create minions out of corn kernels

official-lucifers-child

please i don’t want to learn these things

infinitelines

No one wants to talk about the fact that they worked with Napoleon means the minions canonically participated in the trans Atlantic slave trade

what-even-is-thiss

Finally a new observation that doesn’t have to do with corn

Confession booth

Drew this for an upperclassman’s exhibition on spirituality/religion and LGBT

It’s been awhile since I drew this but since it’s making rounds again, I just want to say: I’m not going to police how anyone interprets my artwork, but I’d like people to at least be aware that this was NOT intended as some kind of sexy nuns fetish art.

I would like everyone to please consider the thrill of hiding in a dark, cramped booth with your secret lover, the blasphemy and defiance of making out in a holy, sacred space, and better yet, the raw, raw vulnerability of laying bare your forbidden love in the presence of your god, saying, here is my sin, Father — witness it, condemn it, but I beg you, do not make me repent of it.

Commissioning artists really makes you feel like a renaissance noble. Like you’ll get an email that just says “Hey sorry some things came up but I’m working on your piece and here’s a WIP” and suddenly you’re wearing sumptuous velvets and eating grapes on a reclining couch like “Ohoho! Take as long as you need, my Orpheus! My riches and time are a paltry price to pay to bring your beauty to the world! I am a ~Patron of the Arts!~”
