Man did not enter into society to become worse than he was before, nor to have fewer rights than he had before, but to have those rights better secured.

"The Christian religion is a parody of the worship of the sun, in which they put a man called Christ in the place of the sun, and pay him the adoration originally payed to the sun." -- Thomas Paine

There are some people talking about Thomas Paine’s time in France during the revolution over there, in the comments on the post I made about him

And while that’s very nice and all, I’m sure,

We are not talking about his politics right now. We are talking about his cringefail staymaking career

[tricornonthecob]

sometimes I feel bad about having multiple primary skillsets and ping-ponging between them, but then I think about best-selling author, humanist gremlin, and unhinged ginger Thomas Paine.

More under the cut

His occupations, according to Bastion Of All Knowledge Ever, Wikipedia, included (but were not limited to:)

taxpayer-funded pirate (privateer)

bra artificer (staymaker)

office intern (supernumerary officer)

Suspiciously Disorganized Gimme-Your-Money officer (excise tax officer who was dismissed for "claiming to have inspected goods he did not inspect")

Schoolteacher

Walgreens manager (tobacconist-grocer)

Magazine editor as an excuse to write about shifting the means of production (editor of the Pennsylvania Magazine)

Best-selling Pamphlet author (Common Sense)

Number Muncher for The Office Of Wooing The French And Begging The Dutch For Money (secretary for the Congressional Committee of Foreign Affairs)

Possible Wikileaks While Being A Number Muncher

Ex-Number Muncher for The Office Of Wooing The French And Begging The Dutch For Money (dismissed for exposing corruption and being particularly rude about the whole thing.)

Not-As-Best-Selling Pamphlet That Criticized Old Rich White Guys author (Public Good)

Seriously, Fuck Off Monarchy author (Rights of Man 1 and 2)

Fuck Off, Capitalism, Lets Have UBI Pamphlet author (Agrarian Justice)

Representative of the French National Convention for Pas-de-Calais

Bridge Engineer (????? I have no words)

Smokeless Candle Engineer

Tinkerer (worked with John Fitch in developing steam engines)

12-Step Guide To Invading Great Britain (Observations on the Construction and Operation of Navies with a Plan for an Invasion of England and the Final Overthrow of the English Government and To the People of England on the Invasion of England)

Reformed Napoleon Stan

George Washington Denouncer

Look if that ginger can be a pirate, make stays, run a walgreens, not collect taxes, be a best-selling author, simultaneously court and piss off America, simultaneously court and piss off France, make plans to invade the ENTIRETY of Great Britain, be the representative of a province he doesn't speak the language of, narrowly avoid getting beheaded in the French Revolution, invent a new type of bridge, make a fancy candle, etc, then maybe my brunette ass can do anything I want, too.

Thomas Paine is one of those people who you really can’t tell if he’s smiling or not. It’s weird, ok? but appreciate his expression

also my friends said he looks like a frog

The circumstances of the world are continually changing, and the opinions of man change also; and as government is for the living, and not for the dead, it is the living only that has any right in it.

"The study of theology, as it stands in Christian churches, is the study of nothing; it is founded on nothing; it rests on no principles; it proceeds by no authorities; it has no data; it can demonstrate nothing; and it admits of no conclusion."

Coloring pages samples

That idea of me drawing lineart and anyone can color my pictures if interested. All I ask is you @ me if posted here or let me know if you post it somewhere else. Down the road if time permits, I’ll offer requests. In the meantime, When I draw something that can be used as a coloring page I’ll use the tag “Rose colored page”. Will not be limited to Amrev because I have a lot of different interests!
