@bellany03

I post random things

this is my favorite image on the face of the earth and im going to ruin it by trying to paint this tomorrow cause i have no artistic ability, using water color, which i have no experience with except like painting when i was 5. ill be liveblogging the probable failure. stay tuned.

looking good so far, i might have done it in the wrong order cause im not sure how im going to get the detail in over the back ground, but my water color kit came with some practice paper so i didn’t ruin a whole canvas

its not exactly going to plan….

his eyes are so unseeing

Sexism 60’s

jesus???????????????

What the fuck was wrong with men in the 60’s?

advertising is important as it’s the historian’s best resource for identifying the values of an era. but yeah, these were fucked. the 60s was generally as fucked as the 50s. people forget that. 

It literally says ‘men are better than women’ in bold type, what the fuck. I knew this was a thing, but that is a lack of subtlety I couldn’t have written into a spoof…

This is the generation that spawned most of our parents… People our parents’ age run Washington. Starting to make sense? When you look to the past, the struggles of the present become a great deal more clear.

Hey Everyone, just an FYI…. This is not over. This is not exclusive to “our parents generation”

Oh hey look, a Hardee’s ad

These advertisements had to go through layers of people. Someone said, “this is my idea” to a room of people and then sold the idea for money.

Reblogging with the updated commentary 

Bringing this back, because it’s important to acknowledge that this gross bullshit persists in our culture today. Stomp on this crap.

This reallllly fucking pisses me off holy shit
