the elevator pitch for this is "a Toy Story/Night at the Museum-style educational series that teaches kids about art history"
they probably wouldn't let me have the tits-out minoan snake woman but that's ok

I've been sick and really out of it, and felt possessed to print out some classic statues. I asked my partner for one to start with, and they chose Winged Victory of Samothrace

I love that museums and independent organizations just go around using high quality scanners to help make history more accessible, even in small ways like this. I'll likely never visit the Louvre, or Greece if they ever get it back, but I can print my own

actually i dont think ive mentioned my impulse headcanon here so im gonna talk about it
does anyone else remember season seven? where impulse said "i think i'm human", then laughed it off as a joke? well that line lives in my brain rent free. he thinks hes human. but hes not sure.
and really, why would he be? he was summoned. he eats amethysts. he seems to be drawn towards totems, and he likes to sort items (literally invented the item sorter). what else fits that?
totems come from evokers. vexes are summonable. allays duplicate when given amethyst, and they also love to sort. impulse feels like something related to them.
vexes and allays are like. minecraft fae. impulse.... is a changeling.
hes human shaped, but not quite the same. he thinks hes human. he grew up with humans and never knew he was anything else. but there is something off about him, some traits that betray his true nature. back in season seven, he didnt know. he was starting to question it. i wonder if he knows by now.
and if hes a changeling, i wonder who he replaced.

Kinda ironic that you would bring someone to life just to take it away
aka When your soul gets so damaged that you turn your only friend into an ice sculpture (when she started her life as a statue to begin with)
