I drew this very specific ace artist meme with Mothman because I wanted to feel some happiness specific to me.

I was reading one of my childhood diaries the other day and there was a whole paragraph saying how hopeful I was that my writing will help the archeologists in the far future. Then it proceeded to describe my lunch that day and how my dog was probably secretly able to talk.
ALTthere is a fucking statue of a kid who lived sometime in the 1200s, around 800 fucking years ago, because we have pieces of his homework that he doodled on while learning how to write. this is one of his drawings:
ALTwhen I was googling him (because I couldn't remember his name), I stumbled across this twitter thread about him, which includes a different doodle by an italian boy in the 1400s of knights besieging a castle:
ALTIt's at the back of one of his schoolbooks for learning Latin.
ALL WE KNOW OF THESE KIDS IS STUFF THEY DREW WHILE THEY WERE BORED AND IT'S STILL HISTORICALLY IMPORTANT.
When companies starting sending jobs to China, Japan and other countries for cheap labor and disbanded the Unions, that was the beginning of the end for the middle class in this country.
And look where we are now
Unions work. Unions created the middle class and wealth for the bottom 99%.
The Top 1% could not handle the power of a broad economy. They have spent the past 50 years buying politicians and spreading pro-capitalism propaganda.
Being an actor keeps me sane. Yeah I have to work a day job but know what? When my day job is stressful and I want to scream I get to go hey wait. I have a scream scheduled at 7:30 tonight. Gotta save up. And then I go back to what I was doing.
I have a scream scheduled, I have a kiss scheduled, I have an argument scheduled, I have a making up scheduled, I have a sing and dance scheduled, I have a get slapped in the face scheduled, I have a cry scheduled, whatever. It’s all good.
Something something the Greeks were right about catharsis.
ohhhhhhhhhh my god and when you argue you always have a comeback, and when you make up there’s no lingering anger, and when you scream you don’t have to hold back, and when you get slapped in the face you know you’re safe, and when you cry you know all will be well.
Oh and if it doesn’t turn out and your character dies or something well then you can go to the greenroom and have a snack and that’s good too.
Everyone saying “oh like bdsm” or “oh like larping.” Yes. Humans thrive on imagination and play in many ways.
insane how many people just have these incredible artists in their families who get no recognition outside of crocheting circles because this art form is devalued for its association with women
in my country, the word for crocheting, is used metaphorically, to compliment a surgeon’s work.
every AFAB person my mother’s age and older, had practiced this craft at one point on another.
My mom has made literal paintings, that decorate our house for years (I’ll come back with pictures when I visit next) you can only see that they are crocheting when you go very close.
as promised here’s my mom’s crocheting “paintings”
There is another one but it had been stored many years ago, (i remember it from my childhood) and sadly it is probably damaged by mold, it depicted wild horsed running in nature
HOLY SHIT THE COLORWORK?????
Didn’t visit the site for a few days, apparently missed a couple of service outages? *gasp* How did you all cope!
Anyway, this post is for people like me who find it difficult to stop scrolling back until they get to where they left off on their last visit:
It’s okay. You don’t need to see every single thing that came across your dash. if it’s that funny, or well drawn/written/acted/sung/danced/whatever, it’ll come back across your dash soon enough, and if it doesn’t then it wasn’t meant to be.
