Auto Mechanics Hilariously Recreate Renaissance Paintings

US-based photographer Freddy Fabris had always wanted to pay homage to the Renaissance masters with his photos in some way, but he wasn't sure how until he stumbled upon an auto-mechanic shop in the Midwest. This led to a brilliant series of portraits with auto mechanics reenacting famous Renaissance paintings.

Da Vinci’s Last Supper

Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam

Rembrandt’s Anatomy Lesson

“Hilariously”? Those are beautiful photos…

[sourcedumal]

I’m saying. These dudes are awesome

[ashleyeleigh]

This is amazing.

[silvermoonphantom]

The composition, and the LIGHTING, and the grunge… lovely

The lighting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[s-n-arly]

I love how these guys took a classical art form and remade it with a modern lens.  The color, lighting and expressions are truly stunning.

They’re literally calling for every white gun owner to step up and kill black people. That’s not okay. Just imagine a black person doing the same, saying the same things. A black person would be arrested immediately and put behind bars for life. And after that you’re asking why we’re still fighting? Because we’re afraid to lose our lives! Ad promoting attack on Americans should have never been released. It’s just white supremacy power.

Tumblr Code.

[geekishchic]

If I ever see any of you in public, the code is “I like your shoelaces”

that way we know we’re from tumblr without revealing anything

I’m just going to say this to strangers until i find a tumblr person

must keep reblogering!! Im going to be so suspicious if any one tells me this now!

Remember the answer is: I stole them from the president.

[hobbinch]

This is an absolute tumblr relic. I feel like an archaeologist right now. This is incredible that this is on my dash.

[squided]

[sabrina-phynn]

Can we update it a little? As in responding

“I stole them from the president and then he fat-shamed me on Twitter” ?

I walked to a deli and got a sandwich to go and a coffee and while I was waiting these two teenage girls ran up and were like OH MY GOD JESSICA HOW ARE YOU and then hugged me and the one whispered “that guy was following you and taking pictures of you” and then they walked home with me and that one guy stopped following me and hONESTLY THIS IS WHAT I AM HERE FOR

[seals-need-love-to-live]

Y'all I was at the river just hanging with my friend and these two high school girls run up to us and say “Can you pretend to be our friends? Cause this guy has been following us,” and we sat with them and they called their parents to pick them up and I really want to share that story cause it’s SO SMART and when you’re in crisis your mind can just blank in panic so I want everyone to have that story in the back of their heads. NEVER be afraid to ask strangers for protection!

Once in like ninth grade, I was at Starbucks by myself doing homework and this weirdo came and sat at my table and was telling me how he was a photographer and how he was “scouting” for models and he really liked my “look” and he was trying to ask my name and how old I was and I was panicking bc I didn’t know what to do Then this middle aged woman came up to us and was like “EMILY there you are sweetie I was looking for you it’s time to go home!” and the guy left really awkwardly and then she told me that she had a daughter my age and asked if I told him my name and I said no and she told me to be safe Keep an eye out. Protect each other

It’s the second year anniversary of my comic. It still stands as a testament to the years that lead up to my comfort in the feeling of loneliness. I hope you enjoy it!

[theembarrassingone]

Didn't draw this one. But it's similar in meaning no?

[leia-organa]

[theembarrassingone]

I drew a thing!

What do you do when someone hurts a person you love?

My 16-year-old brother was assaulted in a bathroom. He's ok but I don't know all the details. I'm in Boston and he's not. My parents told me to give him space and I am. But I'm vibrating out of my skin here. I don't know what to do. How to help. Someone please give me advice.

Is it an autism thing to listen to the same song like ten times in a row, the switch songs and listen to THAT ten times in a row, then go back to the first one, etc etc for several hours??? I've been alternating between two songs for a past two hours and it's like ????

Yep! Autistics tend to enjoy repetition and familiarity, so we often consume the same media over and over again. It can also be a form of stimming to listen to the same song on repeat.

Been there, done that…

[theembarrassingone]

Hmm... I do this. Didn't realize it was an autistic thing.

My night has been somewhat improved by learning that Mark Hamill would just climb inside fake space aliens when he was bored as a habit.

[tato0ine-luke]

He should hang out with Diego Luna

This photo always cheers me up a bit. It’s a front-page article from 1955 about Christine Jorgensen, one of the first women to have sex-reassignment surgery.

Since the text is a bit small and I couldn’t find a larger copy, here’s what the small blurb says:

A World of a Difference

George W. Jorgensen, Jr., son of a Bronx carpenter, served in the Army for two years and was given honorable discharge in 1946. Now George is no more. After six operations, Jorgensen’s sex has been changed and today she is a striking woman, working as a photographer in Denmark. Parents were informed of the big change in a letter Christine (that’s her new name) sent to them recently.

This article is 58 years old, and it’s more respectful of Christine’s pronoun choices and name than some publications are today. It makes me happy to see a newspaper be respectful of a trans person’s choice of name and pronouns like that :3

[chrstabellathornofthebriars-blog]

Say it again for the haters in the back who want to keep pretending that trans people, or even treating trans people with respect is even remotely anything new. 😎

Even though Glee was an incredibly flawed show it managed to break many barriers and traditional conventions on television. The show brought awareness to many issues surrounding many minority communities and humanised characters that would have been typically portrayed as caricatures. Though their portrayals weren’t often perfect, barley any shows reach this level of representation. Credit where credit is due. (insp)
