who the fuck genuinely enjoys the taste of sour candy
who the fuck says “im going to eat this sugary sweet coated in pain salt and im gonna fucking like it”
It’s finally out of the kiln and ready to be taken home! But I am going to bring it back to school so it can go on display for everyone to see! I’m so glad and I love how it turned out.
Truth Coming Out of Her Well to Shame Mankind, 1896 by Jean-Léon Gérôme
I’ve been thinking a lot about it and this is literally the best title of anything
so I guess it was some ancient Greek who said “truth lives at the bottom of a well” and I don’t know what he meant or why it stuck, but I’ve seen a lot of 19th-century references to it (because people always love showing off how much they know about stuff)
but I like this because imagine how fucking pissed off you would be if you lived at the bottom of a well in the first place, but then you had to climb all the way out of it somehow because humans were such unbelievable assholes that you were forced to yell at them in person
