Marvellous!! A great example of why we will always need to re-examine old certainties.

You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online. (Nevermind all the books written prior to the internet that have knowledge that is not considered "relevant" enough to digitise).

Whenever people say that we r growing up with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips...it's not necessarily true. Is the amount of knowledge online potentially infinite? Yes. Is it all knowledge? No. You will be surprised at the niche things you can discover at a local archive or library.

#rambles #if you are a person who is into delicate skills #like lacemaking or printing or sewing #you will know fair well just how non expansive the knowledge online is in comparison to written guides from like the 50s #there was a time where at least one person in the household had to know a constructive skill #but in the modern day there is just less ans less demands for comprehensive guides #library propaganda #im stuck doing an essay rn but bc i have covid i cant go to the library and its totally fucked me #i want to source a lot of the stuff i read irl but i just cant go and get it and theres no online ver

Nikolai Lantsov Fashion: Royalty Edition

Nikolai still hovered in the doorway. He wore full military dress, a pale blue sash across his chest. The light from the parlor glinted off his medals and gilded the edges of his golden hair. He was playing the role of the polished prince tonight. But standing there, he just looked like a lonely boy who didn’t want to return to a party by himself.

I can't believe that this cute little 1971 mid-century modern home in Sarasota, Florida hasn't sold. 2bds, 1ba, and just reduced $5K to $604K.

It's a cute little round house, with an open concept living room/kitchen.

Between the kitchen & living room is an area that's more than big enough for a dining table & chairs.

Plus, a desk can fit in that corner.

Beautiful blue kitchen is all original, including the appliances. Notice the curved patterned wall on the left.

The printed wall curves the whole length of the living room and wraps around the hall.

The primary bedroom is so spacious and has open doorways to the hall. The doors fold shut for privacy.

The single bath is big and just beautifully redone.

And, this is the second bedroom.

The house has a large driveway and carport. The lot is .35 acre.

Looks very nice lit up at night, also.

modern charthur au where charles works at a karaoke bar owned by dutch/hosea (totally not a money laundering front btw…) and the owners’ hot son comes in every wednesday (aka cowboy night), gets plastered, and sings for like an hour straight (he just wants to see charles)

i admit that i find it a little bit frustrating how Wildly Astonished other antizionist jews act when i tell them my israeli jewish family have lived in the region since [some unknown length of time before 1800 when there start being records about it]

#and then they're like ''ohhh they're mizrahi!'' [connotation nonwhite‚ virtuously indigenous] #and i have to be like. no. it's just that‚ as palestine was in fact ottoman-administered greater syria for most of the last 600 years‚ #you could get there from other parts of the ottoman empire. such as the part of now-ukraine your ashkenazi family is also from. #it wasn't actually a hermetically sealed arab-only ethnostate that evaporated immigrants on sight. it was a pretty decent place to live as #a jew by at least some accounts. or better than the front of the hapsburg-ottoman war anyway which is where they were coming from. #i'm not sure who you think it's serving exactly to believe that there were literally no ashkenazim in the middle east before the 1st aliyah #however there were some. and this information does not actually threaten a modern anti-state of israel position like at all. #but since apparently you've constructed your new Diaspora-Centric Identity around the idea that 'palestine' and 'diaspora' #are the two mutually exclusive nonoverlapping regions and the former is ontologically a no-european-jews-allowed zone #i guess i can give you a minute to try to figure it out. #ugh sorry this is nothing it isn't anything. for one thing it's fantastically unimportant #and for another thing i don't know how to like talk about it in a way that doesn't make me sound at least kind of like im trying to justify #myself as being somehow less complicit or something. i mean i think my complicity as an american dwarfs the rest of it honestly but. #i just feel really insanely alienated where the rhetoric of my theoretically most closely politically aligned group is not really built to #like. accommodate the facts of my family history. #sorry. i have honestly no idea why im so obsessed with articulating this concept ive just been chewing on it pointlessly for days #box opener

respectfully and in the most christian way possible, donna tartt haters deserve to bake their disgustingly tacky skin until it turns black like rotten figs in the deepest, darkest circle of hell where even the polarizingly unempathetic psycopath satan feels genuinely bad and sorry for the extreme and unforgettable traumatic pain they're experiencing for sinning and disdaining our holy spirit

i've given my grillby dragon an umbrella and wanted to draw him standing under one since then. Well, lesson learned: UMBREALLAS ARE HARD TO DRAW

#two deaths related drawings #IF YOU. SQUINT ENOUGH. that's a td grillby dragon and that's td grillby fhak #grillby #undertale #fanart #traditional art #rough #i could PROBABLY construct a decent umbrella if given enough sketching space but fhaskd. not in trads lmao #I've been debating wherever folding umbrellas are a thing right now in td #bcs I'll be dragging some fire elementals through waterfall next chapter (!!!!!!!!!) so it might come up #....i think not but it's a cute image. the modern umbrella construction is apparently from the NINETEENTH (!!) CENTURY #(even though umbrellas in general are much MUCH older) #i think in TD's case raincoats are still the more practical and then used solution. I can fudge stuff with anachronisms with magic #influence but i think avoiding modern folding umbrellas for a bit is a good call here #.....anyways that cane is perhaps a bit too short. ah.

This restored 1970 mid-century modern home in Houston, Texas has walls of glass in the back and from front to back at the entrance. It's so exposed, I could never live here. 5bds, 5ba, $3.1M.

Through the front door, smack in the middle of the house, is a conversation pit with a large skylight over it.

There's also a very large dining area.

From the living room in the back of the home you can see up to the 3rd floor. Look at the sofa in a brick niche up in the loft- that's different.

There are 5 baths in house.

The kitchen is minimalist modern and looks like it has its own fireplace but it's just a shelf with a small sitting area.

The primary bedroom is open and consists of more than one room.

This glass enclosure appears to be, maybe, a yoga/meditation room.

The en-suite has a large shower and what looks like a double tub.

And, this is the closet/dressing room. Not liking the minimalist furniture in a house this expensive- it looks like IKEA.

Here's a family room.

Large secondary bedroom.

And, this is a child's room.

One of the other baths.

I don't know if that's book shelving on the right or an art installation.

This is another dining area on one of the upper floors.

There are 2 big decks in the back of the house.

It's only a .92 acre lot, which doesn't give it much seclusion for all that glass, especially if someone decides to build nearby. Plus, there appears to be a road going by along the bayou.
