I’ve been waiting a year to post this

[officialdamonalbarn]

where is that renaissance painting with those two fellers and a giant fucking random skull on the floor that looks like it was accidentally stretched out in photoshop

[officialdamonalbarn]

THANK YOU

[hickeywiththegoodhair]

somebody please explain

[dykemisspiggy]

Someone once told me it’s like that because it was designed to be hung in a stairwell so the skull pops out as you walk past.

[iwilltrytobereasonable]

…I guess it works but you have to be at a pretty sharp angle

[caecilius-est-pater]

There was a whole trend at one point where artists would include something in their paintings (usually a skull, for whatever reason) that’s super distorted in just the right way so that it looks normal if you hold the painting up to a convex/concave mirror. I have absolutely no idea why. But I think that’s what’s going on here.

[crtter]

In case anyone’s curious, here’s what it looks like when you walk past it irl:

It does have a 3D effect to it! It’s pretty neat, guess it would be even more impressive to people from the 14th century.

[midnightvoyager]

honestly, people just looking at the skull are missing the real deal here

You can read any implied text you see in this thing, even the book, that’s how detailed it is. Look at the painting on those letters!

jesus christ you’re just showing off now, Hans!

HANS OH MY GOD

anyway, the skull apparently had some meaning about the transcendence of death, you can only see it clearly when you can’t see the world clearly and vice versa, but man, I’m all about the detail in this guy’s shit

[queen-sammie]

No, I think you’re missing the real deal here

[anais-ninja-bitch]

as an art historian, i think this is the best post on tumblr

what i've been up to the past 20 minutes

[lesbianwithchainsaws]

t-shirt that says "sorry I said something weird. I wasn't socialised properly"

[trench-knife]

one of my worst writing sins is abusing my power to create compound words. i cannot write the sentence "The sun shone as bright as honey that afternoon." no. that's boring. "The sun was honey-bright that afternoon" however? yes. that sentence is dope as fuck. i do not care if "honey-bright" is a word in the english dictionary. i do not care if the sentence is grammatically correct. i will not change. i will not correct my erred ways. the laws of the english language are mine.

NASA Data Sonification: Black Hole Remix

In this sonification of Perseus. the sound waves astronomers previously identified were extracted and made audible for the first time. The sound waves were extracted outward from the center. (source)

[angryschnauzer]

No, thank you. I did not need to hear the souls of a universe calling to me from the afterlife.

[ursulaismymiddlename]

Someone needs to make a space thriller/horror/whatever with this mixed into the music

[headspace-hotel]

why does it sound exactly like what it feels like a black hole should sound like

[pangaeastarseed]

my bones are scared now.

[aroseofgalaxies-deactivated2024]

Love when this turns up on my dash.

I’m really into internet discourse but only pointless and stupid internet discourse like how many holes there are in a straw (it’s 2)

[charlesoberonn]

This is exactly what I’m talking about.

[evilscientist3]

I’m sorry but mathematically speaking this question has a single objectively correct answer, which is 1 hole. This can be very simply proven; a straw and a torus are homotopic, and a torus has one hole.

i odnt think thats true one of my friends is a taurus and hes fine with gay people

[tarantula-hawk-wasp]

Valentine’s Day is barely for couples it is most importantly for elementary schoolers to exchange candy and for thematic fanart and fandom events.

[rneliflua]

IDGAF if the women in my fiction are empowering or aspirational, I'm an adult, I don't need role models, I want the women in my fiction to be interesting, and if that involves being pathetic, hypocritical, amoral, or trapped in a delightfully dysfunctional relationship so be it

[eccebitch]

#'this is so illegal/toxic/unhealthy'#yeah bestie thats why im reading about it instead of doing it

Shoutout to the U.S. embassies in Austria, Chile, India, and South Korea who have directly ignored orders from the Trump administration in flying the pride flag

[bendingsignpost]

They’ve found really clever workarounds, as they were banned from flying the pride flag on the flag pole. 

They aren’t ignoring orders: they are obeying the orders to the exact letter.

[purple-beard]

Malicious compliance

[leondaniel]

Also in Mexico City they couldn’t fly the flag but they didn’t said anything about a picture of a flying flag ❤️
