I like to imagine that Sam Vimes, instead of dying properly, instead got minor godhood. All watchmen at some point thank him for his actions, his actions a ripple across the Disc. There's precedent in the Duchess of Borogravia, and in his arc. He keeps getting promotions, and hates each one. What higher status could he be unwillingly raised to than divinity, eternally watching the watchman?

Anyways, that's just a headcanon i've got

I'm rereading Guards! Guards! and is it just me or does Vimes feel like the only human in a muppets movie

Alright, I will start with this one then - everything starts with the glorious revolution and everything starts with the night watch 🌸

i am a big doofus,,,,,,,a dumb goober,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,my whole life ive been drawing on a 72ppi 1000px by 1500px canvas and wondered why them brushes from pro industry artists dont work as they should, you absolute clown you need the 300ppi

anyway heres a vimes discworld as a kolesov's brushes test (and a test to paint with warm shadows and cool lights)

i still feel so silly

Re-reading Jingo for the umpteenth time, I've always known the whole "second bowman" concept was a reference to the JFK assassination but I've never put two and two together on some of the other references, the two main ones being that Snowy Slopes fired from the back storage rooms of the UU library, a storage room filled with textbooks, a reference to the Texas school book depository.

And the second reference actually made me groan. Angua and Carrot meet up with a Gnoll named stoolie, a regular informant of the watch. I believe this is the first time we actually meet a gnoll in the discworld series, seems like a random inclusion in the story. Then i realised.

In the UK police informants are commonly known as a "Grass"

So stoolie... is a "Grassy Gnoll"

God damnit STP, still taking me to school.

Reblog this to give Sam Vimes a hard-boiled egg.

sam vimes is actually the character ever. when we meet him he's absolutely fucking WASTED in a gutter bc he's grieving a subordinate and a friend. he gets his shit together bc he's an adrenaline junkie. he told the patriarch of ankh morpork to shut up TWICE in like, five minutes (and vetinari let him). he annoyes rich people constantly and consistently. he has arrested two armies (INCLUDING his own city's). he survived being chased by werewolves. he's "vetinari's terrier". he recognizes ankh morpork streets by the feel of different COBBLES under his too thin boots. he's sober but keeps a half empty bottle in his drawer to keep himself in check. assassins have tried and FAILED to assassinate him countless times. he can make armor look rumpled. he HATES kings and gods and journalists and kings and stupid rich ppl. when he's angry he punches the wall outside of vetinari's office and vetinari LETS HIM. he's malewife. he's so so great.

Guards! Guards!

[sphyrne]

[theygotlost]

Every step I choose to take begins to set the world aflame!

And the soldiers march behind me,

I can hear them beat their spears!

And for the first time in all my life,

I know I'm more than what I fear!

Happy Glorious 25th of May!
