GOD I FINALLY FINISHED THIS!!!!
i apologize for taking so long with this art. exams messed me up and my “awsome” idea to draw each character in a certain technique really slowed down the process of creating this art. but i don't regret it at all and i think it turned out okay
Tumblr media
thanks to everyone who suggested their characters!

Wastebasket designed by Donald Deskey, 1928. Wood, paint, silver leaf.
Deskey was one of the leading American industrial designers of the 20th century. His work was strongly influenced by the European Art deco movement, especially after he visited the Paris World Fair of 1925. It was upon returning to America that he became a designer, seeking to bring home some of the innovations he had observed. He is best known for his modernist and streamlined approach to the interiors of Radio City Music Hall, commissioned in 1930 by John D. Rockefeller, and for his packaging designs, which shaped the appearance of everyday American objects from the 1940s onwards.

love 2nd doctor era. black and white half the episodes are missing every single alien is a cardboard halloween suit. levels of weird old man weird young guy yaoi OFF the charts. previous to this the only tv guys named jamie that i knew were a) lannister (has never been seen in a kilt. sisterfucker. brienne obsesser. knight classic=jock who kills you and has an unctious voice about it. compelling but not a part of this conversation) and b) fraser from outlander (worse legs. worse attitude. worse all round. possibly POSSIBLY more historically accurate but whats the point when i couldnt even get through a full season of his show without being too annoyed by him. interestingly enough they both survive the battle of culloden via convoluted time travel hijinks and HEY WAIT. FUCK. DIANA GABABALDON . STOP RIGHT THERE. EXPLAIN TO ME WHETHER YOUR TIME TRAVEL HISTORICAL ROMANCE SOAP OPERA DOORSTOPPERS . ARE SOME KIND OF DEEPLY FILED DOWN FAN FICTION OR NOT.

currently reading henry winston's crisis of the black panther party (here) and it's hitting hard. this was written in 1971 but so much of what he discusses and critiques are just as applicable now. i'm still digesting it but i'm really appreciating the read

– What's keeping us apart ain't even real, your daddy, his religion, it's got nothing to do with us. – It's not just his, it's mine too. I've got the same spirit in me, why don't you see that?
Alice Englert and Walton Goggins in Them That Follow (2019), dir. Dan Madison Savage & Brittany Poulton

I'm only on like chapter 4 but I really like the way Migi to Dali is handling the idea of irrational childhood fears when experienced by two twelve-year-olds with seemingly very little interaction with normal human society. like why WOULD the twins know what wigs are and why people have them? they don't need them to survive! they're completely superfluous! I don't think they've had much space for superfluous things. they're used to everything being a life-or-death matter with only each other and their wits to save them. thinking the parents are going to steal their hair and then make their escape on what looks to be a biplane is a very twelve-year-old thought process, but it makes sense that they would immediately assume they're in danger.

You have me craving priest price. CRAVING
ahhh, love that so much because same!! i don't want to be alone in this rabbithole lmao but i just think there's something so enticing about the concept itself and ever since devouring midnight mass and preacher, i can't get the idea of corrupted clergy out of my head. or, like, corrupting clergy.
but it's also very easy to take his canon convictions and flip them around. replace war with god and you have yourself a preacher. i don't want him to be clean, either. his sermons are all about being soldiers of god. all old scripture. you catch him drinking whisky, smoking cigars. he cusses. he's bloodthirsty. forgiveness is much too new testament to him, yanno? he's more about divine punishment. scorched earth. you are either saved or a sinner, and there's no in between.
but don't worry, he's going to save you. willingly or not.
