MWW Artwork of the Day (5/1/23) Magnus Zeller (German, 1888-1972) The Orator [Der Volksredner](c. 1920) Oil on canvas, 152.4 x 198.1 cm. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (Charles K. Feldman Fund)

Zeller was transformed by his military experience in World War I. As his sentiments turned, he began producing antimilitary graphics and after the war joined the revolutionary Soldiers’ Council. Zeller’s portfolio Revolutionszeit portrays the revolution that occurred in Germany during 1918 and 1919. Instead of focusing on individual personalities, however, Zeller presents the anonymous populace led by a revolutionary “type,” implying that the nameless are the true shapers of historical events.

coming up with metafictional descriptions of the character archetypes in chernobog to describe them in terms of themes, like -

“oh you’re too jaded to believe in the possibility of a stable future so you’re self-sabotaging about it”

“oh you’re living out a fantasy of having security for your basic physical and emotional needs”

“oh you’re coping with the aftermath of An Event that left you irrevocably changed and trying to rebuild your sense of self in a society that now fears and reviles you”

“oh you’re cursed with awareness of the narrative” and then some of them right now are just “man, you are one fucked-up little guy. look at you go!”

#chernobog rpg #for those playing along at home that's #the witchhunter #the witch (needs a rename) #the beast (it's a werewolf class) #the orator #aaaaaand the piper #poor piper one day he'll get a theme #until then he'll get to be a weird little renfield creepazoid for no real reason other than I think it's cool

Genuine question: why are u obsessed w cicero?

hunc habeo morbum

#really though i find it impossible not to be fascinated with him #whether you like him or not (and i understand both angles; he is a ridiculously complicated person #at times repugnant and at times sympathetic) #you have to admit: he isnt boring #the picture he paints of himself and the world around him- the extent to which it is both fabricated for our eye #and perfectly authentic- it's intriguing #yknow that video about sneasler in pokemon legends arceus? #about how she would go to the ends of the world for sneasler but would also love to slap the shit out of her? #thats how i feel about roman orator and statesman marcus tullius cicero #cicero

April 6, 2023 - Representative Justin Pearson speaking before he and another Black Democrat are expelled from the Tennessee State House for joining a protest against gun violence, days after six people were killed at a Tennessee school

#justin pearson #tennessee #us politics #gun control #he was so good #so was jones #the republicans are really just showing who they are and radicalizing more and more people #especially the youth #and helping propel charismatic effective orators like these two to the national stage #where they'll reach even more people #just sucks that literally part of this inspiration is a consequence of the massive racism they face

Do you think a Roman senator ever threw on his toga when he was in a rush, didn't notice it felt heavier than usual, and midway through his speech the curia heard a tiny "meow"

#call that a cat-ilinarian oration #just roman memes #jlrrt speaks

Y’all ever think about how Geto’s mother gave birth to her own murderer

#tbh gege could’ve done some diabolical damage there #imagine if we knew his parents even a little bit #like junepei’s mom #given the fact gojo’s reaction to that information was ‘there’s no way he would do that!’ #Geto probably had a good or at least decent relationship with his folks #odi orates ☼ #JJK #geto suguru #jujutsu kaisen

Look, I know Lisa’s behavior re: letting Dean, someone she hasn’t seen in nearly a decade, skulk around her child’s birthday party is best explained by him being The baby-daddy.

But here’s the rub: (1) the angels didn’t even sniff towards Ben and (2) Lisa is (relatively) honest. During the year Dean was actively with her, she would have likely told him. (Cause it’s no small thing.) Especially under The Truth curse where she ranted about the loss of loved ones/hunting. (My take: It’s a cheeky…red herring. Ben was hungry for a father-figure, and Dean’s relationship to him parallels Bobby Singer.)

So while it is a truth that would be kinder to Lisa’s behavioral health/motivations/etc, the latter plot points don’t support it. Yeah, I agree that it actually makes better sense as an initial explanation for her behavior in her intro ep. But these latter points transform her behavior’s root cause, leaning towards her as a (possibly chronic?) caretaker type of person.

We do see that she is caring! She’s got a caretaker persona from her first ep, driving her to help her neighbor. She’s a good friend! Because of the later plot points, we can assume this caretaker/gratitude aspect of her character is more the driver of her actions than hiding a paternity.

#i have a cousin who is a lisa #she’s always being uber caring in her off-time #she makes herself a part-time therapist for all manner of friends boyfriends etc #she’s so caring under she gets in The Situations where she has to put her foot down #but literally she is always in a Situation one way or another #she likes being a Helper #it’s how she’s wired #she can pick a damaged guy or girl out of a crowd to nurture it is Wild #my cuz is literally my bestie so i know i would get along w lisa #she over-extends herself #she’s a great orator when it comes to communicating boundaries #but there are so many C-minus lays that become Best Night of My life for her #and soooo many Best Years of My Life with Hreat Guys it makes me dizzy #she speaks with oozing kindness and with lots of exaggeration #like lisa #she swallows her real feelings to be The Cool Girl #she is chronically lonely #it’s a Type i know so well! #and i love her very much #she thinks bars and dangerous guys are So Hot but has no street smarts #she is more well off than us but always calling is in one of The Situations

post no longer cancelled though actually. take my hand. look at their littwle shoesies with me :')

#this type of shoe is a calceus btw #it is slightly baffling to me how these are actually constructed byt. thats part of the fun of it #it also made me realize i hadnt looked at them closely enough before to draw them accurately. i didnt notice the little ties.... #also what the hell kind of material are they made of thats soft enough to show the outline of the toes through it??? #felt maybe??? #they look so soft&floppy on the top side its kind of dubiously practical but they do seem to have some kind of harder sole at least #one statue that shows the shoes in their entirety instead of being hidden by fabric is the aulus metellus/orator bronze but i cant find a #high enough quality image of it to get a detailed look</3
