fundraising on here is genuinely making me cynical in ways that feel so fucking foul, do you know how it feels to sit here trying to come up with 'strategies' to tell a new interesting story every day to get people's attention for someone surviving a literal genocide. like genuinely i do not want to believe that most people are so thoughtless and careless that they would turn away from mohammed and his family simply because one of my posts doesn't catch their attention like a youtube thumbnail but what am i supposed to think when every 18–24 hours the campaign stagnates again because i miscalibrated and people didn't see a perfectly cute kid photo or enough coloured text. idek what to say i wish that i had a million krona and i would just fund the whole thing and not ever think about how to package a story so that a genocide can generate compelling social media posts day in and day out. it's the polar fucking opposite of how i ever want to think about this atrocity it makes me feel dirty and slimy and not even dirty enough to be reliably succeeding. i just want people to fucking care enough for them to buy a packet of biscuit rations on the black market and it's like pulling fucking teeth
OMG YES JOHN DOE!!!! ANT THIS ART IS SO GOOD OMGGG
Fear prompt. Doe got caught looking through your stuff
Artist: Louis Jean François Lagrenée (French, 1725-1805)
Date: 1755
Medium: Oil on Copper
Collection: The National Gallery, London
Description
In this exquisite small painting on copper, three women are looking after two infants in a grand neoclassical setting. One woman breastfeeds an infant, while another holds up a second baby for a kiss. A woman to the left is busy arranging bedding in a wooden cradle. The open loggia and warm light suggest that the scene takes place in a southern climate. To an eighteenth-century audience, the women’s clothing would have been understood as antique Roman dress.
The painting shares similarities with a series of eight paintings by Lagrenée at Stourhead in Wiltshire. It may be Lagrenée’s painting formerly at Stourhead, described as ‘Maternal Affection – a beautiful group’. The subject was of special interest for a contemporary audience as motherhood, and particularly the practice of breastfeeding one’s own children rather than sending them out to a wet nurse, was much discussed in both France and England at the time.
one of my favourite things about saiki is how hes just chanting to himself 'i dont care i dont care i dont care i dont care i dont care i dont care everybody except for me and mine can get fucked' and meanwhile he's like scooping baby ducklings out of a storm grate to reunite them with their mama with his hands and LIGHTNING KICKing nendo out of the way of oncoming traffic with his foot and retrieving random childrens balloons from trees with his telekinesis and inspiring passersby to do the best with their lives that they can. he has the entire weight of the world perched on his head. in his opinion. but he doesnt care about it. not at all. prommy. honest. HONEST.
