  • I remember seeing a poster of Maxfield Parish’s Daybreak, looking the painting up online and feeling super depressed when I read that no one can ever see the original in person because some anonymous asshole bought it for over $25 million dollars. The worst part is that for all we know, the buyer could’ve decided to set it on fire and feed the ashes to pigeons. It’s their property. Rich people can seriously just take important artifacts with barely any oversight. They collect the weirdest shit, too: the personal letters of celebrities, Gutenberg bibles, stolen Egyptian art. It’s literally just hoarding but expensive.









  • Omg, yes! It boggles my mind how casually people on the internet will bring the fact that a big part of their childhoods was stalking and bullying a severely mentally ill person. So weird. The saga’s more mainstream than other chan-related things. There’re hours-long documentaries this person’s life and a subreddit with thousands of members—and everyone just acts like it’s completely normal even now.

    My hot take: the level of hatred for just that one individual did more damage to the public’s perception of autistic people than Autism Speaks.
