CAUGHT IN 4K!!
Before there was Moo Deng, there was William.
This little blue hippopotamus, known affectionately as William, has been a fan favorite at The Metropolitan Museum of Art for over a century. Dating back to Egypt’s Middle Kingdom (c. 1961–1878 BCE), William was likely placed in tombs to offer protection in the afterlife.
His bright faience glaze and lotus decorations connect him to the Nile’s waters—but don’t let his charm fool you! Ancient Egyptians knew that hippos were both revered and feared, making William a powerful symbol. He epitomizes the Egyptian craftsmanship of the era.
Take a closer look at William on JSTOR.

black widow stan here and yah. you’re 100% right.
Hot take but Yelena is already a better written character than Natasha ever was and she's only been in 2 movies and a couple TV episodes
What does force ghost cere think about her grandkids?
you mean what does ALIVE cere who is STILL ALIVE think abt her grandkids
(commission info // tip jar!)
au of the acolyte where the only difference is when master vernestra asked mae if "the name Osha meant anything to [her]"
mae responds, in all seriousness "the Occupational Safety and Health Administration?" while master vernestra goes through the 5 stages of grief.

Live action only has a purpose if it’s improving upon the previous animated version.
Honestly? I haven’t seen a SINGLE “live” action adaptation that’s improved an animated feature. I think most people would agree that no “live” remake would EVER replace the animated version, so remind me then: what’s the point?!??? why are we doing this?!?
If I want to experience the magic of ATLA or HTTYD or the Lion King. . . why the hell would I watch the inferior version?!? ESPECIALLY since I can just as easily access the original, better version?!? idk it makes no sense to me. Make new stories in the universe if you must, but at LEAST put the effort into making it look good.
I'm so so tired of "live action" remakes. HTTYD is my comfort film. It's ALREADY good. I was JUST telling my family that I love Dreamworks for making interesting films and not going the "Disney Cash Cow" route by making all their old franchises into "live action".
It hurts my heart to see this is happening. They don't NEED to do this. And if it does well we're just going to get more... we're going to get live action shrek and live action madagascar and we won't have anything new any more.
I hate that capitalism is killing literally everything i hold dear, trying to squeeze every last drop out of what makes us happy.
as the person who goes around collecting cool rocks on hikes, it somehow makes sense that most of my full-odds shiny pokemon have been rocks.
SHE DESERVED SO MUCH BETTER BRO I’M TELLING YA
Mytimetoshine who had leaked the og script all the way back to 2023 coming out to tell what exactly Taskmaster's story would be like after Eric Pearson came out to say she would not only survive but have a bond with Ava... bruh she should have been at the club SHE WAS JUST A BABY FUCK U MARVEL
Anyway, spoilers for something that they didnt film i guess, Antonia's reason to be there at all in that Val promissed to help her cure her brain of the damage inflicted by Natasha's explosion when she was a kid(9 years old), that now, without her father's control, is heavily affecting her memory(like in the comics)
SHE WOULD LOVE SKITTLES ALSO???? SHE WOULD SHARE THEM AROUND WITH THE OTHERS WHEN THEY WERE RESTING??? Its mentioned a couple of times, more often than not it feels like Antonia is more confused at everything than anything else and its what triggers the others, specially Ava to be protective which u know, ironic as fuck considering who gave her the final shot in the movie
Also the team instead of getting angry or tired about her lapses in memory and her attacking walker because of it are more worried for her than anything else, specially, obviously, Yelena, Bucky and Ava, Ava who btw makes a video to help Toni get through her episodes.
THERE IS MORE I CAN'T REMEMBER NOW BUT ANYWAY, bro taskmaster got robbed so bad 😭
I genuinely feel like shit for Olga Kurylenko and her character they both deserved so much better to the point that i went from "whatever" to the character to actively wishing they bring her back and develop her as they should have done.
Now we know why ghost felt so off from the rest of the team as well, her main bond would be with Antonia and since they cut her off...
for my art friends. stay safe, folks.
