i witnessed the most fascinating thing today imo…my 4th grade art class were talking while they did their work and one of them was like “if you work hard all your life…….it means NOTHING” and their response was to all crack up and start running with this bit like. “you work all your life on an oil painting. the mayor comes in. he says ‘i didn’t even ask you to do that painting.’” they kept going giving examples of nothing mattering and laughing hysterically. they’re 9. like, we think OUR humor is depressing or w/e, how are THEY going to be
Millennials are depressed but the Gen Z kids are straight up nihilists
The Signs as Mythological Creatures
- Aries: mermaids//for a fire sign? surprising, i know. but like their aquatic counterparts, aries are beautiful with a bloodthirsty side, dangerous to those that underestimate them, but full of life and the ability to create wonderful art and song. fire doesn't just lead to destruction, it purifies and leads to new beginnings.
- Taurus: dwarves//down to earth (literally) and reliable, you know what to expect from these creatures, and, like a taurus, there's a fire in their hearts. they might be stubborn, but they're loyal when loyalty matters most.
- Gemini: selkies//i promise this isn't a two-face joke, this time. gemini are often accused of having two-sides, just like a selkie: human on land, but a seal beneath the waves. what people don't realize, is that those parts are just fractions of a whole person, one with facets and depths like anyone else. gemini are free-spirited and hilarious, uncontrollable and restless when forced into one place.
- Cancer: demons//sure, cancers can be emotional and a little overdramatic, just like your pesky house demon. but! just like their counterparts, they aren't just creatures of emotion, they're people of action! make a cancer cry and expect retribution! an unholy cloud of acid rain will destroy your house and poison your river!!
- Leo: elves//they're pretty, they're known for being vain, and they're apathetic, right?? wrong! like elves, leos are more than just narcissists hung up on appearances! they're full of wisdom and have feelings that run deeper than anyone could imagine! just because they don't express themselves as body as others, doesn't mean they're fake or without caring!
- Virgo: minor gods/goddesses//they're all about control and they know how they like things. however, they're more fun-driven and wild than people would think, not driven by tradition and rituals like other gods are. they might like order, but that doesn't cancel out excitement or the occasional party!
- Libra: sirens//wait?? but isn't that just a mermaid? no!! you're so wrong! sirens don't bother with the relaxing and falling in love mermaids do! just like a libra, a siren will change themself to attract their victims (friends) and do whatever they can to seem appealing to those around them! but like the siren, libras aren't just people who roll over and lock away their opinions! libras are fierce creatures that should be respected, feared, and loved for their badassness!
- Scorpio: an incubus//and not because scorpios are sex-addicted weirdos (which is fine if you are) but because they're stereotyped as such but they're so much more! scorpios are survivors, creators, wonderful creatures of the night who kick ass in their own right! they're passionate and cunning, and if they like sex (or not) they aren't defined by it!
- Sagittarius: fairies//they can be sweet and cute, sure, but have you ever pissed of a fae? they're mischievous and more than happy to fuck shit up because it's amusing and they're bored! and just like a fairy, you could most definitely find a sagittarius naked in the woods, possibly covered in glitter ;-)
- Capricorn: grim reapers// now idk if there's one or many, but no matter what, capricorns are the biggest bads of them all. capricorns are controlling and dangerous as hell, ambitious and ready to cut a bitch if crossed. but they're also compassionate, willing to guide others, even if it's work. also. the grim reaper is awesome???? fuck yeah, capricorns!!
- Aquarius: dragons//they're totally cool, everyone wants to know one even if it's a bad idea, total badass, but also, super nice?? just give them a place to chill and they will collect cool stuff and be lazy
- Pisces: a hrydra//why?? because if you hurt a pisces, they're gonna recover and come back better than ever! nothing can stop them, because they're fiery creatures full of determination and succuss!! do you pisces, because you rocks!!

tonight’s aesthetic: Cookie Monster philosophizing in an art museum
This just changed my life.
The lasagne one has opened my eyes
life imitates art and vice versa
The reason it reminds you of a Renaissance paintings is because of how the people’s gestures and gazes direct your eye between each other and ultimately toward the central motif of the Beib getting choked.
It’s also the colour scheme and the lighting. The deep red and the pale greens, the lighting so dark that some figures are obscured but the others stand out with brighter lighting. Even the circular pattern in the back references halos or other decorative features meant to draw attention. 10/10 good Renaissance art.
And I enjoy the subject matter too.
And some of the hoodies and T shirts look like robes at first glance…?
