Here are 543 images (1.5GB) of items at the Philadelphia Museum of Art arms and armor exhibit

You're free to use them for anything, even commercially. I tried to focus on details not usually represented in available reference material

drive.google.com/file/d/1NRzg...

Here's a small sampling:

A closeup view of an ornate cuirass and tasset, showing heart-shaped designs along the edges of the metal panels.

An extremely ornate ceremonial halberd head showing etched and blackened designs with various plants, mythical creatures, and heraldic designs.

A closeup of the shoulder intersection of the cuirass, pauldron, and bevor of a piece of 1500s field armor. Some ornate etching of the crucifixion is visible in the lower right corner on the cuirass.

Crazy drug, I’m shocked we still let it be prescribed tbh

At the clinic we used to have a college student come in and pay $30 every month just to get a signed record of a pregnancy test (negative) faxed to the doc in another state that prescribed it for them

thank u, hexed @lindsaykingmiller.bsky.social · 1d

Sex scenes are almost never "gratuitous" or "unnecessary." You learn things about characters and relationships during sex that you can't really learn any other way, such as whether they're into fisting.

I will say that if you want to go back down, don't sharply drop down. if you have tablets, cut them in half to step back down over time (about a month). not sure how to step down with capsules without doc assistance

co-sign, this is precisely the kind of advice we gave to people upping their venla at the clinic I worked at.

Sometimes there'll be a joke written by someone who's been dead for tens, hundreds of years & i'll stop and think about another human reaching through time to make another human laugh, long after they're gone, and it's so beautiful it makes me well up.

fun history fact!

you might think that captains choose to "go down with the ship" out of a sense of honor or tradition, but it's actually much simpler than that. every ship's captain dreams of piloting a ghost ship, and there's only one way to get that job

i think about this tweet a lot

tweet from @arod_twit:

"characters in tv shows are too self aware now! every emotional convo is like "i guess i yelled at you earlier because i never processed dad leaving" no!! no!!! flush someone's blood pressure medication because they called you lazy."

I'd really appreciate if writers these days took a look at their characters doing therapyspeak and whether that's appropriate for their work and their world.

By "therapyspeak" I mean speaking like this: "This is the emotion I'm feeling, and feeling that emotion makes me want to act in a way"

There’s a lot more vile discourse that I can imagine for them
For example the reaction to Aurelia and Keiten’s actual physical bodies will be troublesome, there will be no shortage of Weird Shit said about Koka ans Noale in particular, etc etc etc

morse @tieflingemporium.bsky.social · 14h

Koka is lore accurate, she only sings and does not speak if it cannot be put to music, so she’ll be seen as annoying.

Dya will be “minor coded” because she’s short with big ears and small tits, so her fandom response will be intolerable.

morse @tieflingemporium.bsky.social · 14h

Evara will absolutely get heat for “getting in the way of a precious yaoi ship” because of who their husband is.

Keiten will be rightfully lambasted for their actual crimes, which are a doozy.

R’yhlae has chronic resting bitch face and big boobs, she’ll be picked apart and blamed for plot issues

Also since they’re all femme presenting they’re all gonna get hit with the “they’re one dimensional” critique or the “they’re Mary Sues” critique regardless of their actual characterization and flaws.

morse @tieflingemporium.bsky.social · 14h

First of all, they’re all getting hit with the “why are their designs so oversexualized” beam to which I actually have no defense. Girls hot, I like hot girls. I like when the women are pretty.

Some of these shades were metallic (the pink/grey/cream) but I didn’t know how to represent that on my markup app

TL;DR
Yes they are, yes they have been, yes the Phan speculation is a big part of why they took so long to address it, it was very scary, no they're not mad at the phandom for Doing All That, even though it was rough, and they're happy they get to live their lives a bit more openly now.

oh good god

morse @tieflingemporium.bsky.social · 1d

now is the part where I reveal that in 2016 a friend's mom (an entertainment lawyer) revealed to her kid that they'd signed an NDA regarding the nature of Dan and Phil's relationship since the dudes were doing press in the US and that person told me, and I've been quiet about it this whole time

today in "god my characters are hot"
look at evara they're the light of my life (today)

Look, they are taking a MILLION years to get to the point but I think the point is yes. I mean, they say it in the start of the video, but they also go "but let's talk about it"

And lots of people did think they were, to the point where it became A Problem For Them when their careers were young.
