Would you kindly help me? I want to know what sort of suit Howl wears in the book Howl's Moving Castle. It is described as blue and silver with long trailing sleeves with scalloped edges and Sophie cuts it up so it's only a silver net. The most efficient ways of transportation in the book are by magical means (flying carpets, seven-league boots) but there is advanced plumbing with hot and cold water on demand and has been for a while at least.

Is there any historical outfit that matches ; what era would it be from?

That´s a super interesting question! It might be a Houppelande, a very popular garment from the 14th and 15th century. In this case, it would be checkered one in blue and silver. The combination of scalloped edges and trailing sleeves definitely sounds like a late Medieval garment to me. I´m not an expert on (late) medieval fashion though, but I still hope my answer helps!

always blows my mind as a european when people talk about states like “yeah theres nothing in ohio/montana/wyoming/etc” because i look at a map like but. but theyre so big. every state could qualify as its own country what do you mean theres nothing there. and then i ask people from those states and theyre like “yeah theres nothing here” what do you mean theres nothing there!!!

Spin this wheel first and then this wheel second to generate the title of a YA fantasy novel!

(If the second wheel lands on an option ending with a plus sign, spin it again)

Share what you got!

You still can on some of the galleries in MANN (Naples Archeology Museum). They make you wear foot covers, but that's it!

That's a 2,500 year old mosaic floor from Pompeii. The cord across the entryway, the text in the display on the wall, these things make me think that once upon a time they used to let you walk on that floor. Which is wild.

It’s been hard to motivate myself to do art for a long time, so I’ve been going back to basics which is binging dozens of hours of content and drawing traditionally in a frenzy.

Anyway, here’s Caleb, I really missed him ✨

i think we should start having episodes which are direct sequels to first/second doctor era serials, but only the missing ones, so that ncuti gatwa can look beautiful and deliver a fantastic monologue as he realises with horror where he is... and then we cut to a single poor-quality frame of william hartnell grimacing
