So my husband and I work at the same workplace, and he took a little longer in the office than usual before we left because they were discussing this new process that they started.

While I was waiting on him to finish talking to some managers, the nice Ukranian woman that works there (about 75yo) was explaining to me in the breakroom that my husband is very nice and very smart and he should study. She said in her broken English (which she learned simply by listening to other speak, which is incredible) that she is weird because she cares about whether or not people are studying throughout their life and going to college, etc. She told me that our workplace also helps out with going back to school and scholarships and stuff.

Idk, that talk with her just made me want to do Things, and the way she talked about how her kids all took language classes and speak like 4 different languages and are in medical and science fields and make lots of money and how she wants that for me and my husband just made me think.

"You don't want to be working at this warehouse forever, you want to get good job and study hard and make lots of money."

You're right, Vera, I do. Thank you.

St. Patrick’s Day is tomorrow! And I just want everyone (mostly the people I interact with IRL) to know:

i think the only downside to not visiting my moms family for thanksgiving is i miss out on my uncle johns pierogis. his sister comes over and brings some kind of pastry i have no clue what it is and her wife brought sushi last time we visited.

but uncle johns pierogis....... phenomenal

anyways sometimes I get a bit sad that my mom just gave up on the ukrainian heritage and never looked back. every day I mourn my inability to make pirogies.

I am currently trying my best to ignore the piles upon piles of propaganda sounding on the TV. Like, fuck, I knew that all the propaganda was bad, but not THIS bad my god

The real question is if when Один Не Один releases on November 14th I can pull the same stunt I did when Ghost's Hunter's Moon came out and play it literally so much it gets added to this year's Spotify Wrapped a month before the cutoff point. I'm already insane about this song just from previews.

One of my friends is a finnish teacher, originally aiming to teach literature and stuff to teens, but she's currently teaching an adult class of finnish as a second language to a classroom of ukranians. Apparently yesterday they returned assignments to write a short essay about things they do daily, and one of them started with "every day I wake up, and enjoy my life."

The sentence itself wasn't 100% grammatically correct, but that's not the part that's impressive. Like how the fuck do you hold onto an attitude like that when having to learn finnish as a second language is only the second worst thing that has happened to you this year.

SET FOURTEEN - ROUND ONE - MATCH SEVEN

"Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks" (1880–1891 - Ilya Repin) / "Garden of Earthly Delights" (1490-1510 - Hieronymus Bosch)

REPLY OF THE ZAPOROZHIAN COSSACKS: Uuuuuuooo I’m pretty sure somebody has submitted the world famous Repin with the fella holding his dead son, and yeah that one is truly harrowing and I think it should be in the final bracket cause it would sweep but Repin has such a range and it’s all very deeply felt and sensitive stuff. For this one he did a couple of versions - you could pick either because they’re both rich in a really immediate sense of humanity. Again on the technical side this is a truly bonkers piece of work because he stitched its elements together from countless studies of people he knew and the result is still somehow a Realist masterpiece rather than the patchwork amalgamation you’d expect.

And each figure isn’t just irresistibly human - he gives all of them so much tangible warmth (the riotous laughter! The attention paid to detail in their clothes! The irritated dog in the bottom left corner) and the fact that theyre all his friends and colleagues is really charming. Dunno if its like “molten lava” kind of evocation of emotion but it certainly makes me feel something. ( @idiotpalespiral )

GARDEN OF EARTHLY DELIGHTS: think it's one of the greatest odes to human imagination and it's insane that it was painted around 1500. it's hard to overstate how innovate and unique bosch's art is. besides, he probably hadn't even ever taken acid in his life, so i don't know how he did that (@cuties-in-codices)

(The "Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks" is an oil on canvas painting by Ukranian born Russian artist Ilya Repin. A large number of the "Cossacks" are modelled after either friends of Repin or people he saw around him, including the bald head belonging to the Grand Chamberlain of the court of the Russian Emperor who declined to be added and Repin painted in anyway. This painting measures 203 cm × 358 cm (80 in × 141 in) and is located at the State Russian Museum in Saint Petersburg. The submitter originally submitted the preliminary version of the piece.

"The Garden of Earthly Delights" is a triptych oil painting by Hieronymus Bosch. It measures 205.5 cm × 384.9 cm (81 in × 152 in) and is located in the Museo del Prado, Madrid.)
