Trying to Flirt

What I think: Don’t bring up cosmic horror

What I say: THE EMOTION OF FEAR, AND THE INSTINCTIVE REVOLT OF THE HUMAN EGO AGAINST THE LIMITATIONS OF TIME, SPACE, AND NATURAL LAW, ARE SO DEEPLY EMBEDDED IN OUR PERSONALITIES THAT THEY HAVE ALWAYS EXISTED AND MUST ALWAYS EXIST AS MOTIVATING ELEMENTS IN ART AND LITERATURE

Anthropomorphic Tree
Anthropomorphism which is the recognition of human-like characteristics or form in animals, plants or non-living things. This tree, which can be found in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, has roots which have taken a human-like form.

I don’t even know how you fix this situation

You don’t go any closer & don’t invoke a damned thing & go on and get the hell out before someone finishes the summoning. 

PSA: if someone ever asks you why Viz Redub of Sailor Moon is better than the old DiC/Cloverway one, show them this video

Okay but are we not going to address how fucking hysterical the original dub was in it’s complete and utter “no homo”ness

Its kinda funny how they just completely threw out entire scenes and used the lip flaps as just more space to stress how heterosexual everyone is. Original: hey u hear about the western mythology of adam and eve? 4kids: NO THE MAN IN THIS PHOTO IS MY BOYFRIEND THAT I TOTALLY HAVE

my favorite davids, ranked

here’s a definitive and totally subjective rating of davids

donatello: 3/10 honestly pretty embarrassing, but worth a mention. just your run-of-the-mill, oh-you-haven’t-heard-we’re-copying-classical-greek-sculpture-now david. stiff, awkward, and pretty dopey looking twunk. has the same expression of someone being told dona-fucking-tello sculpted this. can’t even hold his slingshot bc it’s too gay. don’t worry there’s a redemption arc on its way.

donatello pt 2: 9/10 fucking superb you funky little gay man. total glow up. a complete deviation from the norm by a well-known deviant. takes contrapposto to sultry new heights. look at this lad’s little hat and boots he’s not a nude he’s just naked. some people say goliath’s head is modeled off of donatello himself literally he was horny enough he said “step on me” in full fucking bronze. goliath’s helmet has little gay greek reliefs on it, not even remotely subtle. look at the feather going up his thigh and tell me u didn’t cross your legs when you did. commissioned by the medici for their palace, which makes it even cooler by association. 

verocchio: 8/10 ily baby a perfectly fine lad, looking at him makes me smile. his little dress is so cute with its stylized arabic psuedo-script border, and the floral pasties? adorable. something about goliath’s head feels a little disjointed, but you know what? fuck him. he’s not important. david’s the real star here in his little cheerleader get up. what really makes me biased towards this one is that the model was supposedly verocchio’s star student, the young leonardo da vinci. and look how fucking radiant he is! love it.

michelangelo: 7/10 technically this thing’s great. look at the fucking veins on the hand that’s absolutely mental. but all in all it lacks the overtly homosexual intrigue of some other davids and, frankly, i expected more from well-documented gay disaster michelangelo. obviously a classic but also makes it prone to being too over-saturated. i do love his yaoi hands though.

bernini: 11/10 the man the myth the fucking legend! bernini always delivers and this david’s no expception. look at that movement! the drama! the whole thing screams baroque in the best possible way with the dynamism, the momentary narrative, that cute lil scrunched up face. only complaint is that it isn’t as good as some of bernini’s other work but i’m willing to let it go for the detailing on the fucking rope goddamn gian lorenzo you absolute madman. we stan a sculpting legend.

If only all art history books were written this way.
