And someone just went “their children”
BRUH
They’re fourteen
They’re just kissing, they’re not doing anything wrong or dirty
WHY DO PEOPLE ALWAYS SAY THAT

There's something very funny about calling Pauline (a character introduced in literally the first Mario game ever) a character from Mario Kart: Tour, the mario kart game for iPhone

From the epic halls of The Metropolitan Museum of Art to the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Guggenheim, New York City is home to some of the most famous museums in the world, each one looking completely different from the next. Today Michael Wyetzner of Michielli + Wyetzner Architects returns to AD for an in-depth look at how the iconic museums and art galleries of NYC developed their unique designs and became some of the city’s best landmarks.

All The Vermeers In New York rn
Johannes Vermeer's Other Girl With A Pearl Earring or whatever, staying put at The Met
In 1990 Jon Jost made a movie called All The Vermeers of New York, which at that point was—and most of the time is—eight. The Frick didn't lend their Vermeers once in a century, but right now they're renovating, so they lent all three. The Met has five, and may lend one here or there, but now has lent two. So NYC went from eight Vermeers to three.
Which is at least better than DC, which went from four Vermeers, until it lost one in a giant self-own, by changing the attribution, to three, but now it's at zero, because all of them went Amsterdam for the biggest Vermeer show ever, including the studio one, which the Dutch are like, still looks like a Vermeer to us, send it over!
