More TBOSAS fan art of moments that didn’t make it in the movie. So a moment that made me cry, a moment I thought was sweet and a moment that threw me completely off guard and I had to reread it like 5 times to make sure I read it correctly 😭
if I had a nickel for everytime I saw an animated wasian character with blue eyes and dark blue or black hair I'd have 3 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened thrice.
Henry Ossawa Tanner (American, 1859-1937, active in France)
Lion Licking Paw, 1886
Oil on canvas
Allentown Art Museum
"Henry Ossawa Tanner painted this lion from life at the Philadelphia Zoo. He was preparing to make a larger work depicting Androcles, a formerly enslaved Roman who stopped to remove a thorn from a lion's paw while fleeing his enslavers. Tanner often explored stories of oppression and freedom in his work. As the son of a woman who liberated herself from slavery, and as an expatriate who left the United States to mitigate racism's impact on his career, he likely found particular significance in these themes."
HI GUYS! I made a video about Twilight getting an animated series and my thoughts on it plus what I think could potentially happen! Check it out at the link below!
finishing up my scavengers reign rewatch and this might be the only media in existence to make me burst into tears with just a shot of a funky looking bug
Do you have Netflix? Do you enjoy animation? Are you ok with animated violence? Don't mind amoral characters? Like dark comedies?
I have a great show rec for you. It's called Captain Fall. Its equal parts funny, interesting, and horrifying. Let me put it to you like this, there was an episode that involved deadly boner pills. Interested? Check it out.
In all seriousness, James T. Tanner is one of my biggest inspirations in life. I admire his dedication in searching for the ivory-billed woodpecker and how he stood up for them when corporate greed threatened to destroy one of their last known habitats. Never actually read his book about the ivory-billed woodpecker, but I would love to do so if I can get my hands on a physical or online copy of it. It's a shame that it's so hard for me to find...
If you want to know more about James T. Tanner, I recommend reading the book "Ghost Birds" by Stephen Lyn Bales - way easier to obtain, a lot more information about Jim and his life. Had a blast reading it, very good book.
Thank you for existing, James T. Tanner. Happy birthday.
