(yes I know the Room is super obscure compared to the others. Idc, he's my favorite blorbo.)

S/O to @very-tired-child!! His posting about Places That Are Characters (and his excellent humanizations) are what inspired my own spin on the idea.

"Annotated" versions under the cut.

I’m really happy that Black Sails is experiencing a bit of a renaissance, but (predictably) some of the takes I’m seeing online are so busted. It’s wild to me that anyone would complain about the fact that Anne Bonny kisses Jack after she’s developed this life-changing relationship with Max. It’s absolutely wild to see anyone roll their eyes or feel uncomfortable about the fact that Flint has sex with Miranda when he returns to her in season one or that Max is most likely a lesbian but actively has sex with men for pay and knows how to make that pleasurable. It’s crazy to me that some of the very audiences who claim to want queer representation feel so discomforted when they actually see the mess and seeming inconsistencies of queerness that they asked for.

The reality is that there are lesbians who have had (and will have!) meaningful, mutually-gratifying, and deeply sexual relationships with men. There are gay men who’ve enjoyed having sex with women, who are gay as the day is long and nevertheless feel sexually attracted to a woman or two and are nevertheless gay men, full stop. There are gay cis men who are happily married to trans women. There are femme dom tops and butch bottoms and there are mascs afab people who like femme boys. There are non-binary people and trans men who actively identify as lesbians. There are ace and aro people who enjoy thinking about and engaging with sex — sometimes in fiction and sometimes in real life. Queerness, in fiction and in reality, defies neat categorization. That is the beauty, power, and (perceived) unorthodoxy of queerness.

Now, I’ll say this — do I think the straight men behind Black Sails were actively thinking deeply and insightfully about the paradoxes and fuckery of queer identity when they wrote Black Sails? No! By their own admission, Steinberg and Levine have owned up to the fact that some of the writing of the show was really hinged on their own blind spots as people who are not (to my knowledge) members of the queer community. If I want to be generous, I think that the beautiful mess of Black Sails is that, in not feeling like experts enough to designate specific identity labels to any of their characters, the writers stumbled their way into more authentic representation of lived queer experience, which is to say that the notion that James Flint was actively thinking of himself as a gay man was anachronistic. As many lesbian archivists and theories have noted, the notion of a queer identity — as in, queerness is who you are, not what you do — was patently unthinkable for most cultures in the past. In other words, the idea that Anne Bonny operates in the eighteenth century as a lesbian and thus would not willingly engage in relationships with men is not only untrue of the series, but untrue of most recorded lesbian experiences in the real world. The notion that a lesbian would operate her entire life without engaging sexually or romantically with men, for instance, is a very new privilege that some of us are very lucky to enjoy, but it is not true for the vast majority of human history — hell, it’s not even true of our present world.

This is all to say that think that there’s something really funny about how we want queer characters to fit into neatly organized boxes. This isn’t a new problem, either. When the show was still airing, the BS fandom would get itself into tizzies about wether or not Flint is gay or bisexual, wether or not Anne Bonny is a lesbian, wether or not Silver is queer when his only canonical relationship is with Madi, etc etc. We’ve been having these discourses for years and I don’t know. I get that much of it is fueled by how badly some people want to see themselves represented in media, but . . . well. The siloing of queer characters and queer narratives into neat little boxes has never felt very authentic to me and nine times out of ten, it’s also just so damn boring.

#black sails #anyways I gotta stop yapping #its just wild seeing the same arguments play out on twitter and other corners of tumblr when like #lmao I was there for the day when like 2.5 people got very angry that I referred to Max as a queer woman ONCE #and interchangeably with calling her a lesbian lmao #when I tell you … I love this show but those writers were not being that intentional with any of this lmao

first year on the path | thought it would be heartbreaking fun to paint the kaer morhen wolves when they were baby witchers!

featuring: a single moment where geralt is on the path for the first time, eskel has a couple years of witchering experience, and lambert is still a kid at kaer morhen (he misses his bros).

some pet portraits from 2021 that i dont think i posted, on the left is Angus and on the right is Momma Mora (Angus’ mom). they were 2 out of 5 pet portraits i did for a lovely client. she has 4 rescue kitties and one dog and we came up with outfits to match their personalities. challenging but fun !!

#momma mora is prob my favourite out of the 5 #the owner rescued them both and said Mora was very shy #so i tried to show that with the reserved outfit #whereas angus was described as crazy and adventurous so he got a little solider outfit #are knights soliders?? idk #painting the armour was SO cool. i love painting shiny stuff #i dont really understand how armour works so dont call me out #i dont normally draw/paint outfits so it was difficult but rewarding #she also provided incredibly high quality reference photos of them which was a godsend #pet portraits #cats #catblr #cat art #cat painting #art #artists on tumblr #traditional #acrylic painting

Random question, but how did you do the rainbow thing in your pinned post? Is it from something you buy on Tumblr?

the gradient, yes!!! no, it's completely free.

so, i don't remember where exactly i got the instructions as to how to do it, but this is basically how the word "welcome" from my pinned looks like in html:

since it's a gradient, every letter is a sliiightly different hue, but i remember there was a website where you could basically write any word/sentence that you'd like gradiented, choose the starting and ending colors, and it'd automatically give you the html code for the gradiented text. i think it was this one?

and that's what you get!

you just gotta copy the code, start editing your post, make it so you're editing it as html, paste the code in, and it SHOULD work. hopefully!

#nicole answers #Anonymous #the colors work for symbols too. like hearts and arrows and stuff #i Think this is what the rainbow thing refers to?? #if this is too messy i just checked and googling ''tumblr how to gradient words'' shows a few more indepth tutorials

TW: Gore & Body Horror!

This is Strawberry Pillow, an experiment which escaped from Indome Labs due to a stupid employee leaving her chamber unlocked; it's less Strawberry Pillow, moreso the parasite inhabiting the pillow's body.

SP is very curious and tends to explore things, places, and other objects without any consent, and usually has to be carefully coaxed out of her interest before she ends up crushing a guy's skull to "see what the maximum withstandable pressure is". She speaks in a very "alien-like" way, usually calling objects "mere entrail containers" and using strange, literal combinations of words to get her (usually unnecessary) points across. (For example, she'd call milk "aging fluid", meat "flesh carvings", hands/fingers "flexible extremities" etc.)

"Normal" Form:

In order to disguise herself, Strawberry Pillow has created another form to use. This has worked pretty well, but due to her having no idea how her arms are supposed to work, they just kinda loosely flop around.

Strawberry Pillow's corners function like ears, they're bigger than a normal pilllow's and prick up when she senses prey, they also fold back when she's stalking as well.

Strawberry Pillow may look (and be) pretty strange and unpredictable, but she smells pretty good, strangely, like a strawberry cake. She uses this to attract prey like rodents or other objects.

Strawberry Pillow never frowns or becomes visually upset in either of her forms, so she's always seen with a half-smile. Don't be fooled, she can and does get very angry, and will definitely think of repeatedly bashing your head against the ground if you set her off.

She LOVES to eat Pilot, he's like gourmet food to her, and nobody knows why. The leading theory is that Pilot is simply lacking so many survival skills that he tastes better.

Strawberry Pillow has amateur sewing skills because of having to disguise herself, but she only keeps getting better...
