Togrutakin? Togrutakin.

I think he deserves big forward facing bull horns. As a treat.

#myart #togruta anakin skywalker #the world deserves more togrutakin #so I shall make it #anakin skywalker #he doesn’t wear headdresses or anything #because I hc that on tatooine the only togruta wearing headdresses and jewelry were of the pleasure slave variety #agonized over what colors he’d be for ages before finally deciding on a more muted palette #I think it works tho

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"

just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible

#due to the Great Data Decay academics write viciously argumentative articles on which episodes aired in what order #at conferences professors have known to engage in physically violent altercations whilst debating the air date number of household viewers #90% of the couch gags have been lost and there is a billion dollar trade in counterfeit “lost copies”#serious note: i'll be honest i always assumed it was english imperialism that made shakespeare so inescapable in the 19th/20th cent #like his writing should have become obscure at the same level of his contemporaries #but british imperialists needed an ENGLISH LANGUAGE (and BRITISH) writer to venerate #and shakespeare wrote so many damn things that there was a humongous body of work just sitting there waiting to be culturally exploited...#i know it didn't happen like this but i imagine a English Parliament House Committee Member For The Education Of The Masses or something #cartoonishly stumbling over a dusty cobwebbed crate labelled the Complete Works of Shakespeare #and going 'Eureka! this shall make excellent propoganda for fabricating a national identity in a time of great social unrest.#it will be a cornerstone of our elitist educational institutions for centuries to come! long live our decaying empire!'#'what good fortune that this used to be accessible and entertaining to mainstream illiterate audience members...#..but now we can strip that away and make it a difficult & alienating foundation of a Classical Education! just like the latin language :)'#anyway maybe there's no such thing as the 'greatest writer of x language' in ANY language?#maybe there are just different styles and yes levels of expertise and skill but also a high degree of subjectivity #and variance in the way that we as individuals and members of different cultures/time periods experience any work of media #and that's okay! and should be acknowledged!!! and allow us to give ourselves permission to broaden our horizons #and explore the stories of marginalized/underappreciated creators #instead of worshiping the List of Top 10 Best (aka Most Famous) Whatevers Of All Time/A Certain Time Period #anyways things are famous for a reason and that reason has little to do with innate “value”#and much more to do with how it plays into the interests of powerful institutions motivated to influence our shared cultural narratives #so i'm not saying 'stop teaching shakespeare'. but like...maybe classrooms should stop using it as busy work that (by accident or designs)#happens to alienate a large number of students who could otherwise be engaging critically with works that feel more relevant to their world #(by merit of not being 4 centuries old or lacking necessary historical context or requiring untaught translation skills)#and yeah...MAYBE our educational institutions could spend less time/money on shakespeare critical analysis and more on...#...any of thousands of underfunded areas of literary research i literally (pun!) don't know where to begin #oh and p.s. the modern publishing world is in shambles and it would be neat if schoolwork could include modern works?#beautiful complicated socially relevant works of literature are published every year. it's not just the 'classics' that have value #and actually modern publications are probably an easier way for students to learn the basics. since lesson plans don't have to include the #important historical/cultural context many teens need for 20+ year old media (which is older than their entire lived experience fyi)

Desperately needed to do another shitpost and that Will Smith cock shame meme came to mind - I couldnt decide who fit who as you can see so now theres just a red and blu version lol which maybe indicates they dont quite fit the meme but shh Also kinda looks like a conspiracy board

I dunno why Scout would care so much about whether or not they stay together (they're the teams rock😩)

Cut below is me playing around with the images lol

I just thought it was funny

#tf2 #team fortress 2 #heavymedic #tf2 medic #tf2 heavy #red oktoberfest #scout: if we dont make sure they stay together the whole friend group is over #i think its so funny how many divorce arcs they go through lol #this actually wasnt a good art day at all i was really struggling #and took me forever sigh #its how it is at least it shall post

finally remembered to put these side by side!! my ptutu illusts so far 🩰 2024 & 2022 🦢 prints

#princess tutu #ahiru (princess tutu)#rue (princess tutu)#princess kraehe #mytho (princess tutu)#fakir (princess tutu)#ahiru #mytho #fakir #rue #my art #i keep making horizontal prints .. and people at cons cant see them bc horizontal prints are so hard to see high up LOL #mayhaps one day i get the idea for a vertical ptutu illust to create a sort of holy trinity but we shall see.. for now im satisfied!#ideally if i ever do a 3rd ptutu illust id like it to be vastly diff from these 2?#i designed these drawings to match with the curtain bc i was worried the rendering style would make it too different #tbh the 2022 drawing is kind of a cmyk nightmare to print. so im glad i had a different approach to the colours for the new drawing ^__T

I love talking to rabbis as a recent conversion student because the interaction goes something like, "you're converting? Now?! At this time, at this moment in history?!". And they always talk about this influx of jewish convert students they've seen recently, and it's like...

There's this level of respect I get from rabbis for converting at this point in time, but... Has there ever been a good time to be a jew in the last thousand years or so plus? I'm imagining that rabbis and jews in general back in 1492, back in 1290, back in 1349 would have said the exact same thing. So, really, there is only a time to be a jew. Maybe it's not a "good" time, yes, but it is a time. And to me, that's good enough

#jumblr #jew by choice #jewish conversion #personal thoughts tag #and to me i *know* that being a jew has historically Not Been a Good Time. i don't ask that of my conversion #i would convert if i had to run one day. in fact i count on that as a possibility #that's why i like simple judaica. if i have to run away with my people it'll be easier with simple bare-boned judaica #i would convert even in the middle of a desert. in the middle of exhile. on threat of pain and death #because to me being a jew isn't about it being a 'good time.' it's about being true and honest about what i need to be #if i were born this same way a thousand years ago i would make this decision again #where you rest; i will rest. where you pray; i will pray. when you weep; i shall weep. and where you die; i will die #i can only speak for myself but i've seen other students with a similar mindset #so in truth it's not the timing that motivated me. it's deeper. it can't be intellectualized. it is a primal feeling - something soul-deep
