Information

Dante Rosetti 1864

Beata Beatrix

Johannes Moreelse 1630

Democritus, the laughing philosopher

The Dutch masters were ahead of their time, a lot of 17th century Dutch work is much more like 18th or 19th century work from other European countries.

if the significance of the internet archive being threatened has been lost on anyone, maybe these quick comparisons will put it into perspective…

Banning the Internet Archive would be the equivalent of burning the Library of Alexandria hundreds of times…

Time Travel Question : Murder and Disappearance Edition I

Given that Judge Crater, Roanoke, and the Dyatlov Pass Incident are credibly solved, though not 100% provable, I'm leaving them out in favor of things ,ore mysterious. I almost left out Amelia Earhart, but the evidence there is sketchier.

Some people were a little confused. Edward V and Richard of Shrewsbury are the Princes in the Tower.

the anglophone t/v distinction fans i keep seeing on this app need to get weeaboo-grade obsessed with Yorkshire culture it would be so fucking funny for me personally.

and it’s not like it’s been done either. fandom tumblr’s teaboo phase didn’t touch on this shit at all; closest they got to recognising England has a north was an alien from Salford and even then they preferred the one that was a Scottish guy doing a generic southern English accent.

(for today’s lucky 10000 or whatever the number in the xkcd comic is: in Yorkshire (and to some extent in a few other parts of northern England), English retains a t/v distinction with ‘thou’ and ‘you’.)

Edit: I grew up speaking an english dialect with a t/v distinction: language nerds AMA

「30歳まで売れないとアイドルになれるらしい」 (from cherry magic volume 12 special edition) — english translation

#cherry magic #my translation #ok immediately massive disclaimer there was a bunch of idol fandom+music+fashion terms in here ive never heard of so stuff might be v wrong #pls have mercy i tried my best with whatever info i could find 🙏 #also another small t/n for a thing i Do know about . so on pg 4 kurosawa actually says '好きなんだよ' which has no object specifically #so the thing he says he likes depends wholly on context #since he says that straight up first it could be interpreted as him saying 'i like You' which is why adachi goes 'whuh???' and turns red- #-in the next panel for a second anyway before kurosawa clarifies that he means the songs #(but maybe he was backpedaling and was actually saying that he likes adachi at first . hmmmmm) #but yeah i couldnt find any good way to actually make that work in english so i thought ill have it in the tags at least #i wonder if sensei will continue this AU like she did wizardsawa that would be cool.... theres so much potential
