thinking about this bit again

ALEX: i’m trying to think of this—it’s a hard question cause it’s like, there’s this weird thing, like, in fan communities where they just- they really desperately want to turn everything into benedict cumberbatch or jack skellington. like... you draw a dog and they’re like “what if that dog was dressed in a top hat and tails and was seducing somebody and had high cheekbones and looked like hannibal” and it’s like it doesn’t matter-

DANA: who is also half a deer. for some reason

ALEX: yeah it’s like, whether it’s a man or a woman or a circle or a square or a piece of paper or a log, people will be like “how can we make it fuckable?” and so like everyone wants bill, who’s just this obnoxious little dork, to be somehow just like this suave and handsome dream lothario, which is totally in no way connected to his personality whatsoever. so like, you know, that stuff.... when i see it i’m like “sure go nuts have fun” but when people are like “is this it?? is this bill?” i’m like.. it’s not.. it’s not the bill i created. it’s your own original character. so go nuts. so like, when i try to think of human bill it’s just so bizarre to me because.... the whole joke is that he’s this dumb little illuminati triangle with a top hat and like mr. peanut arms and legs

I want to dive into Russian textiles, which it doesn’t make sense telling you this since Tumblr format will show that post first but here we are. I wanted to first explore the Russian embroidery and its symbolism, since packing meaning into textile is such a wonderful concept. 

Adoration of the Goddess:

These pieces can often be view as cloth scriptures in a way. They feature the old pagan beliefs and portray a female figure thought to be a to the ancient deity slavs, a goddess by the name of Mokosh, sometimes called the great earth mother. These pieces are normally ritual clothing.

Gifts of Love and Remembrance:

It’s common in Russian culture to gift a hand woven and lavishly decorated gift towels. Commonly given and used in weddings, they are a symbol of good fortune, and will often be given specific symbolism by the person weaving them.

The Tree of Life:

19th century art historian Vasili Stasov wrote, “In Russian embroidery, one can see the depictions of ancient Slavic rituals, like tree worship, and mermaid festivals.” In northern Russia, trees were a pretty important life source. They provided building material and firewood.

Thats all for now!

this is your daily reminder that sans the skeleton canonically loves eating cigarettes.

My first love 💕

bill cipher is the character ever. he swears in cartoon sound effects. he has beef with a baby. he didn't know what colors were until he was like at least 27. he's the most powerful being to ever visit earth. he only exists in dreams. he's an alcoholic. he's a victorian. he almost certainly worked retail. he doesn't know about his own gender. he also doesn't care about his own gender. he's depressed. he likes silly straws. he knows everything. he's stupid as shit. he thinks that normal is just a setting on a washing machine. he's touchy about his sides being uneven. he's a flatland oc. he's owned by disney. he responds to "willy." he thinks in all caps. he has a reddit account

Felt that it’s important to share videos like this too.

Batman’s cape should always be drawn like it’s basically a sentient creature with its own personality. Bruce is like “hnnn I want to be a Creepy Night Creature” and his cape is like “got it boss 🫡”

people don't make heavymedic weird enough. I think they shoudl be weirder. They would be the old couple that facetimes each other and you can only see Heavy's chin and Medic's forehead and they're giggling and smiling at each other and not saying anything.
