As the political elite were quick to claim the leadership of the Revolution, so too did members of the peasant masses demand that they also should partake in the rewards of the Revolution through the implementation of good governance and the abolition of taxes and forced labour. When these were not forthcoming or were consistently blocked by provincial and municipal elites, many peasants joined tax riots, demonstrations and messianic movements. If the Filipino elite were the ultimate victors of the Revolution, then the masses in town and countryside were the unwitting victims. One senses in the hundreds of complaints about official abuse in the Insurgent Records that insult had been added to injury. During the second phase of the Revolution, the peasant masses knew only too well that the Spanish civil official or friar was no longer on the scene to be blamed as the final architect of the continuing corruption in government and society.
— Milagros C. Guerrero, The Provincial and Municipal Elites of Luzon During the Revolution, 1898-1902 taken from Philippine Social History: Global Trade & Local Transformations (1982)

the Aaron Bushnell transvestigation is crazy because it shows just how hard this cult of self and self-identification has infiltrated everything. This refusal to engage with the content of someone's character and final message without first dressing them up in a way that appeals to your unique sensibilities betrays not only a lack of respect and sense but also demonstrates that you are susceptible to any messaging, so long as the message is properly dressed.

I hate that media criticism has been reduced in online spaces to solely discussions of representation, where Good Media has the ever elusive and impossible to define “representation” and an absence of bigotry (and yes, it’s about the ABSENCE of bigotry rather than the presence of some other subversive quality), to the point where genuine critique of the formal qualities of something that happens to Have Woman In It is seen as indicative of some secret sexist agenda. Sometimes things can be completely inoffensively bad and sometimes people want to talk about it that. Sometimes the mere presence of a minority group does not make something good and it especially does not make it groundbreaking.

If you’re ever insecure about how often you use commas or how long your sentences are I IMPLORE you to read the Treaty of Paris (1783), specifically article two.
510 words.
2 periods.
FIVE HUNDRED AND TEN WORDS.
A GRAND TOTAL OF TWO SENTENCES!
SIGNED BY DOZENS OF PEOPLE TO SET UP A TREATY AND AUTHORIZE LAND!!
Like don’t worry babes your 3 commas and semi colon are NOTHING to the revolution era and that’s what truly matters.

Apolinario Mabini, Revolutionary, Cesar Adib Majul
he was so fucking funny for this
I had actually spent a long time recreating the interior of his house for that first panel before I remembered he was exiled in guam when this happened lmao. the other guy in this comic is his brother, prudencio, who accompanied him into exile!
speaking of houses, let's talk about his glasses. he had them, and I get emotional whenever I see photos of his personal belongings.....

What if,,, What if Sabosanuso,,, What then,,, What if Sanji has two hands, one for Usopp and another for Sabo,,, What if they held hands,,, What if,,,,,, What if Sabo and Usopp get a little too well in Dressrosa while Sanuso is established and both have the biggest crush on each other and then when Sabo meets Sanji he is like "well I GUESS I will just have to fuck both of them now to deal with this crisis"
Koala: You don't have to-
Sabo: I'm going to.
And Sanji also has the biggest crush on Sabo because who wouldn't. So here he comes the most chaotic but gentleman-looking man flirting with both of them and Sanji and Usopp are a whole anxious mess. They throw a party for reasons™ and Sabo approaches them and he is so not subtle it's insane. Unhinged but polite rev. And. And Usopp has to physically drag Sanji to the kitchen to talk in private and they are both going fucking insane with anxiety because "This is Luffy's brother we are talking about!" / "Yes but have you seen his hands!?" / "And his voice but that is not the point!" / "That is exactly the point!" / "Why are Luffy's brothers always so hot?!" / "It's the fucking fruit I swear to-"
They spend like. A long 20 minutes talking there while Sabo waits in front of the door like 👁️👁️ waiting for them to come back. And when they actually do it gets--- It gets very silly very haha very 'I don't want to talk about my thoughts I might faint writing this' type of situation.
Okay, but imagine that after the inevitable threesome that they have, they just keep meeting. Running into each other constantly. And Sanji and Usopp were supposedly in a monogamous relationship. And I say supposedly because it only takes a pretty blond former rich boy turned into a chaotic hot mess to make them change the only rule they had. So now they are like "okay, we can sleep with other people and that people is Sabo and Sabo only because look at him-". So they are not dating Sabo but they can sleep with him even if it's not the three of them.
While all of this happens, by the way, Sabo is having the most wonderful time of his life. Because he doesn't show it to them but he is also a babygirl and when he's alone with Koala he can't stop kicking his feet and screaming into his pillow and going "THEY ARE SO CUTE HOW AM I GOING TO DEAL WITH THIS IF EVERY TIME I GO SEE MY BROTHER I END UP DISTRACTED" / "You end up distracted anyway, who cares? As if you didn't enjoy it" / "I enjoy it very much yeah-"
AND- They catch feelings because of course they do. At some point there is the "Usopp, darling, you have a type" conversation, but he doesn't want to get too deep into, um, the subject (.... Kaya, Sanji, Sabo... Boy... I have some news for you).
I can't stop thinking about them,,,, Usopp being dramatic and telling his stories and Sabo following every detail with extreme care (he is. He is a writer. You guys. I. Can we just talk abt what that implies for Sabosopp???). Sanji cooking and Sabo desperately trying to help but failing miserably and ending up in a corner of the room with Usopp as a "punishment" but actually they're just cuddling watching Sanji cook. There is no "and they were both ***" here anymore because Sabo tops them both, no doubt. Maybe Usopp tops a single time but Sabo won't stop teasing and it's insufferable. And- And they are so cute. The most annoying boyfriends you will ever meet.
The most important thing here is to know that now Luffy is extremely jealous because he fears Sanji might end up cooking more for Sabo despite Sabo literally coming over to see them once a month or every three weeks and Luffy is always there. And he also does not want to lose his precious time talking about beetles or fishing with Usopp because of Sabo. But!!!!! They look really happy so he accepts it. And now Sabo is around more, so that is something nice too.

I really cannot get over this scene from the eighth episode of the Princess Knight (リボンの騎士) dub. I love everything about it, and it’s soooooo Revolutionary Girl Utena (少女革命ウテナ), although another Tumblr netizen accurately pointed out that actually it is Utena that is sooooo Princess Knight haha.

Art Confiscation and Transferrals During the French Revolution
Tumblr media
A new source of art treasures was provided by the confiscation of church property and by the decision to transfer objets d'art from several royal palaces to the Louvre. A valuable collection of paintings, including Leonardo da Vinci’s La Gioconda (Mona Lisa), was acquired from the royal palace at Versailles, but not without the resistance of the local municipality. Under the direction of a commission temporaire des arts, a collection of furniture, porcelain, and paintings of varying merit was assembled, thus converting the Louvre into a kind of warehouse. In the spring of 1796 the German visitor F. J. L. Meyer found one gallery of the Louvre open to the public. This was filled with a miscellaneous collection of objects ranging from scientific instruments to tables, and his impression was one of “indescribable chaos.” The gallery was closed later that year.
Under the Convention there began a systematic policy of confiscation of art treasures from territory conquered by the French armies. In 1794 the first convoy of paintings from Belgium arrived in Paris, providing a magnificent representation of the Flemish school. The Décade philosophique described this event as the arrival of the paintings in their “true country” where they would be displayed and appreciated. It was fitting that Paris should be the European metropolis of the arts.
