"Divine Contrast" by Nestor
This colored drawing illustrates a fantasy character split into two contrasting aspects, representing the stark realities of social inequality. One half depicts a wealthy man adorned with distinct religious elements, while the other half shows a naked and impoverished man, with his starving family in the background, living in misery. This powerful piece serves as a poignant critique of wealth distribution and the societal structures that perpetuate inequality.

Galatea and Pygmalion—
Gérôme, Jean-Léon "Pygmalion and Galatea" // Normand, Ernest "Pygmalion and Galatea" // Ovid Metamorphoses // Regnault, Jean-Baptiste "Pygmalion" // Raoux, Jean "Pygmalion Adoring His Statue" // Falconet, Etienne-Maurice "Pygmalion and Galatea" // Shaw, George Bernard Pygmalion
#i saw the first painting at the MET and it is one of my favorites#i went down a rabbit hole finding other artworks about pygmalion and galatea and then wanted to find the literature to tie it together#the art is quite beautiful and honestly i think the story is so thought provoking#i named galatea first in the title bc she deserves it#i also wanted to give her the last word#i hope you enjoy#web weaving#web weave#academia#light academia#dark academia#pygmalion#galatea and pymalion#my fair lady#art#classics#ovid#ovids metamorphoses#metamorphosis#painting#quotes#poetry#parallels#sculpture#mine

tbh its not entirely fair to paint all blatant rep as poor in comparison to queercoding (altho i do love some good queercoding). i think the reason so much blatant rep is Like That, while queercoded stuff feels so much more meaningful and real, is because the blatant rep we often experience is made to Market To The Queers. while it may have queer creatives working on it, the reason its created is to make money off of queers. its trendy. so just write a fairly surface level fluffy movie about white queer teens and get some cash! its blatant, which means it will be treated as a groundbreaking queer media especially by liberals.
while queercoded media on the other hand (intentional or not) cant or wont just slap two conventionally attractive teens on screen and make them kiss and get those rainbow dollars. its an expression of queer silencing, the quiet thats left when you arent allowed to say what you desperately want to. when you cant spoon-feed your audience queerness you have to. yknow. actually think about what it means and how to express that artistically. you have to show and not tell.
thats all to say, there is blatant queer rep that is good. but you probably aren't gonna find it on amazon prime. that kind of rep is being made by queer artists making indie films. i promise you its not either "blatant queerness that feels shallow" or "deep queerness thats not allowed to be blatant". theres a secret third option and its "capitalism will never liberate you and you need to actually support indie queer artists and actively reject queer capitalism to experience the breadth and width of what queer art is capable of being and doing."
#m.#like verilybitchie has talked about “bad queer rep” in a video essay (check her out)#and she mentioned one bisexual tv show made by a bisexual#that was both blatant and interesting#or uhhh that transfem vampire movie#like. this shit exists. you just need to put effort into#breaking free from spoonfed capitalist media and interact w indie art#not trying to be pretentious either!#if you enjoy fluffy capitalist queer media good for you fr thats 100% fine#and its not NOT important that we CAN have that pandering now#but like. from an artistic standpoint#capitalism prioritizes money not art. it will never care about you#queer media is only being produced bc enough people will go see it that studios will put it out#its not even a matter of homophobia rlly. we only matter as long as we make money#when queers stop being profitable to netflix queer indie artists will still make thought provoking takes on queerness

The price of loyalty…
HEY GUYSSS! It’s with great pleasure I get to announce this fanfiction written by the wonderful, and amazingly kind @Milien_The_Gremlin (on ao3)for the RBB that goes along with the piece I drew! Very happy to work with them, they actually taught me some stuff about the BDSM community I didn’t know and about how those relationships work. Some of that (well, the more unhealthy aspects for angst purposes) come to play in this wonderful fic, as well as a lot of angst and Izzy whump (which I know y’all LOVE.) go check it out if you haven’t already! Milieu also writes a lot of other Izzy whump and BDSM stuff so check out their ao3!
Link to the fanfic below

hello i am here to say two things
i want marlow as a companion so badly please let us know if you make a mod i'd cry/pos
Please tell me anything about your ocs one of my favourite things is hearing about people's ocs or what they're interested in. just rant at me like you've got a red string conspiracy board if you'd like
1. Ahhh you are just the sweetest! Sorry it took me a bit to reply, I really appreciate your words!
2. Thanks so much for giving me an opportunity to share things about Richie. I’m don’t know the best way to put OC lore out there so these kinds of asks help a lot! More to read below :)c
A fact about Richie is that he tried isolating himself in the Glowing Sea before his long trek out to the Mojave Desert. He had just cut all ties in the Commonwealth and heard the earth-shattering news that Mr. House was still alive. He thought the tough conditions in the Sea might calm him down and set him straight, but it turns out manifesting about the man who doomed you in a twisted hellscape isn't very healthy. His time spent there only turned his heartbroken anger into a full blown revenge quest. Surely killing an old flame would make him feel better...right?
The fact of the matter is, even if he hadn’t passed the point of no return in the Sea itself, it would have happened somewhere else eventually. His steady decline was inevitable because he is just... so hard on himself, refusing to accept any kind of help or prolonged companionship. Under his confident exterior, the guilt and grief is eating him alive, and sadly all this self-destruction leeches out onto his friendships and lovers as well.
The sorrows of a man who needs to feel love to be okay, but snuffs it out before it can grow...
#fallout#fallout new vegas#fallout 4#glowing sea#fallout oc#dick marlow#fallout ghouls#my art#asks#thank u so much for the thought-provoking question!!#I really gotta stop pairing meme images with sad text jkcdsbdcbs#I can't help it... he's equally as memeable as he is tragic#but I'm happy to get little bits and pieces of him out there#and I'm also happy with how this little doodle turned out hehe#me? drawing a background? unheard of#I sometimes forget he has like... zero lore posts on my blog LOL#Phewf... I'll get there...#thank u again tho this was very fun

"Codependency" by Nestor
This intricate black-and-white hand-drawn artwork captures the powerful emotional connection between a couple, intertwined through a vast network of neurons and veins. It delves deep into the symbolism of codependency, showing how relationships can become both a source of strength and constraint. The contrast of the delicate lines of the human forms with the intricate web of connections evokes a profound reflection on love, dependency, and identity.

i imagine that even after apologizing and trying to be better, earth still worries that he could relapse to his old self and that everyone is just pitying him so that another moon revolution doesn't happen
my man is trying but the voices get too loud

so apparently if you send messages to people with interesting thoughts or images you can have some really interesting conversations about things you're interested in. has anybody else heard about this
#inspired by a few days ago when i was having conversations about The Character with three different people in dms simultaneously#because i drew some awesome thought-provoking art of The Character and sent it to my friends#who knew you could do this.......... absolutely wild#<- guy with anxiety realizing he can message his friends literally whenever he wants#jort post

i kind of want to get back into drawing fma......... every october i see the fanart and it blasts me back to when i was 11 and discovering fma for the first time, it shattered my worldview..
#diary#ive seen a lot of people put fma down bc#they just see it as a battle shounen but i promise you it's so much more than that..#the discussions about discrimination war philosophy and humanity are so thought provoking and unlike any other shounen#one piece maaaybe comes close in terms of topics on discrimination and war but it's much more focused on battles#if you like this kind of philosophical stuff over action scenes id recommend the manga more so you can absorb the dialogue at your own pace#no one 'knows' me for fma bc i havent found a way to incorporate my art style with fma yet..ahaha im booboo the fool..#my fatal flaw is that i just like to draw frilly dresses and yes im aware i really need to broaden my scope#also arguing that the art style is ugly like. ok folks..fma doesnt reaaally have the bishounen character type so that makes it 'ugly'?.
