So, I Already Made A Sketch Of Claus Chasterell, And I Might Do The Lineart Tomorrow.. Anyways If Anyone

Prologue :D !!

Today, I finally realized something.

A lot of my family member's name is just a variant of the name "Louis".

It dated back from 1837, when Percival Chasterell,my fifth great-grandfather, named one of his sons Alois. Alois was born after Claus II, who was named after my sixth great-grandfather, Claus Chasterell.

And then, there's great-aunt Louisa, grandfather Alois II, great grandfather Aloysius, great-uncle Louis, cousin Lutz, aunt Mary Lou (yes, Lou is a variant of Louis), niece Louella, and of course, me, myself and I. Aloisia Chasterell.

It makes me wonder, you know? Why is there more people named after variants of Louis than people named after sixth great-grandfather Claus? He was a famous poet, playwright, and actor.. and yet there's only two people in his family named after another variant of his name: Claus II, and my sibling Claude.

I mean, Louis is a great name. It means 'famous warrior' or 'famous in battle'. But who is this Louis, or Alois, or whoever their name is, and what did they do to have more Chasterells named after them than Claus?

Nothing pisses me off as much as the genocide funding fast food chain trying to clean their name by putting up a banner claiming that they have donated a teeny tiny bit of their revenue to Palestinians

It's kinda baffling how some people still think that the Pompeii eruption happened because of gay people lmaooo

tried to make a doodle of that one teacher of mine. he looked a little younger than he actually is but I'm still pretty proud of this.

Anon here, I remembered what movie it is around like, 15 minutes after submitting the ask. It was Zootopia and the scene I was referring to was the one where Judy's about to apologize to Nick lol

@tipofourtongues

There's this movie, the only things I remember about it are:

-3d movie

-probably from 2010s?

-female mc

-there's a scene where she frantically asks for keys to her parents, and when she got the keys she says "I love you mom, I love you dad"

If it turns out that somehow I made up this movie inside my mind I'm so sorry

Guys.

Y’all.

I…

I just. I just… i have discovered something. And I have laughed too much. I have laughed every time I have tried to explain it to someone. I cannot get through this.

Look. Okay.

There are two things you need to know, here.

First: There’s a style of Greek pottery that was popular during the Hellenic period, for which most of the surviving examples are from southern Italy. We call them ‘fish plates’ because, well, they’re plates, and they’re decorated with fish (and other marine life).

Like this one, currently in the Met:

Or this one, currently in the Cleveland Museum of Art:

They’re very cool. We’re not 100% sure what they were for, because most of the surviving ones were found as grave goods, but that’s a different post.

The second thing you need to know is that when we (Classics/archaeology/whatever as a discipline) have a collection of artefacts, like vases, sculptures, paintings, etc. and we do not know the name of the artist, but we’re pretty sure one artist made X, Y and Z artefacts, we come up with a name for that artist. There are a whole bunch of things that could be the source for the name, e.g. where we found most of their work (The Dipylon Master) or the potter with whom they worked (the Amasis Painter), a favourite theme (The Athena Painter), the Museum that ended up with the most famous thing they did (The Berlin Painter) or a notable aspect of their style. Like, say, The Eyebrow Painter.

Guess what kind of pottery the Eyebrow Painter made?

Behold, the excerpt of the letter I quoted

“I am longing to press you to my chest, and to tell you - face to face - what you mean to me. Love me as I adore you.”

— Nicolò Paganini in a letter to Luigi-Guglielmo Germi, from Paganini, le magicien by Renée De Saussine

Hhhh themmm <//3

(this is from Stanley Lombardo's translation of The Iliad, by the way)

I hate when people don't know that Hector 100% knew exactly who he was killing when he killed Patroclus.
