Thinking about him (the soldier in Poynter’s Faithful Until Death painting watching an apocalypse unfold around him with horror in his eyes as he tries to keep himself standing beneath a doorway, based on an actual 19th century archeological find of a man in full soldier’s garb under a doorway at Pompeii)

If I had a peny each time Owen Wilson played a middle aged western character trying to score with a refined aristocrat and they go to Pompeii together, I would have two pennies which isn’t a lot but it is weird of a coincidence

my volo might be a disaster bisexual,
but i imagine that he becomes Worse once it fully takes. He thinks of himself soooooooo demi, and i can see him dramatically thinking he's monosexual, even, for a short bit
but he's just the punk version of goddamn Claude Frollo. and once being bisexual fully takes he just revolts against the celestician/sinnohan church's hetcomp anyways-

also I’ve always been super impressed with how private the guys are considering. like with their level of fame and success i’m surprised they aren’t papped more and followed lol maybe it’s just not that bad in england bc in america a celeb sets one foot out in public and they’re practically mobbed, it’s crazy. so i’m glad they’re able to just live their lives for the most part (hopefully, idk what their interactions are actually like in public obv lol)
that's because no one actually cares about bastille here babe
nah fr though dans talked about not wanting to be like 'famous' and kind of watering down their personality in early interviews and not saying anything controversial to try and stay out of the limelight, so i guess that worked lol.

Man, it’s such a struggle to remember I’m supposed to be a completely different person offline than I am online nowadays.
I have an old friend I’ve known since childhood that I’m seeing more and more of recently after we went through the pandemic without talking much and every time I talk to her now I feel like an imposter trying so hard to be normal.
Like omg she doesn’t know I have a Tumblr where I thirst after a 61 year old man day in and day out! She doesn’t know I spend most of my free time talking with people on the internet about the blorbos from my show, theorizing and creating weird head cannons. She doesn’t know I write older lizard-wizard/younger maid double-dick porn! (Still working on that btw, just hit a block I’m struggling to get past, but I’ll get there)
What do normal people talk about again?! It’s been so long! I don’t want to scare her away…

i'm feeling very emo about herculaneum rn bc of that statue post btw
#i'm reading more about it bc i was never taught about it in school#it's a city that was just about 13km away from pompeii and was also buried in the eruption of vesuvius#but it got buried under 5 times as much volcanic ash as pompeii so it was really difficult to excavate#and bc of that because pompeii was easier to get to that city became more famous#real excavation on herculaneum only seriously began in the 1920s and real preservation only began in the 1980s#the city was architecturally and artisticallly beautiful on rival with pompeii and we've retrieved a number of gorgeous statues#but there was a city built near the excavation site that really damaged a lot of the building foundations through water runoff#and a lot of the remains we've found have been sadly damaged by the elements as well on top of being not very well preserved to begin with#so in the 80s italian authorities basically said “start protecting this shit we can't lose this” and officially halted all excavation#to focus instead on preserving what we had already discovered rather than finding new things#and if that isn't just the perfect example of why i love archaeology and sociology#it's not all about what you find and how you find it but how you care for it as well#how are you gonna take this beautiful ancient city that's been gifted to you and say. i'll protect you.#i'll make sure you don't get hurt. i'll make sure your foundations are strong. i'll make sure you're still beautiful.#i'll protect the citizens who called you home once. i'll make sure they're taken care of in death.#i'll make sure that you're respected.#reaching your hand back two thousand years and caring for those people and the things they loved.#fuck man i'm fucking crying over this rn
