Unique vintage male names, companion to this post:
There are less of them because people seemed to be less creative with naming their sons. Not sure why.

I love when gothic lit men fuck around and find out
Emu watercolour from a guitar ensemble piece that I've just finished. It's my third painting ever so I'm hoping I'm improving!!

Reigen is a Discworld Witch
Part of Reigen’s bit as a ‘psychic’ is that he finds people with problems that they have attributed to Cursed Spirits, such as, lack of sleep, stiff shoulders, etc. and solves them with conventional means.
Only calling on Mob, or Serizawa when a spirit is actually the problem.
This is similar to how witches work in the Discworld series, only they can actually use magic.
Witches like Granny Weatherwax avoid using magic as much as possible, mostly using headology (psychology), Boffo (basically kayfabe) and their skills, only resorting to magic when absolutely necessary.

Chrétian de Troyes is legit the funniest medieval writer i’ve read so far??
Like. percival is all masquerading as a badass knight and then the moment he opens his mouth everyone can immediately tell that he’s an idiot. he won’t stop talking about his mom and it takes his mentor to give it to him straight to get him to stop. he’s called an idiot to his face.

LIKE??? THIS IS LITERATURE
Every few years I remember that the Alternative Limb Project exists and get blown away once more by their work.
This one is half hyper-realistic, and half swapable sections based on the woman's personality, moods, and spirituality.
This one comes with a DRONE and has control panels in the wrist and forearm, as well as a flashlight and laser pointer.
This one is older, from 2012, but I still love it. Shiny shiny.
This one has a WORKING CUCKOO CLOCK IN THE KNEE. A WORKING. CUCKOO CLOCK.
Another older one, this one with realistic snake.
This is a two part one, dedicated to railway workers/builders/passengers who lost limbs. The limbs can be hooked together to allow the little train to travel between them.
This one is a literal swiss army knife arm, full of survival supplies.
Just. GAH. They are all so neat.
The project was started by Sophie de Oliveira Barata and you really have to check out her work: https://thealternativelimbproject.com/
Dendrogaster (a crustacean that parasitizes starfish)

Kinda feel like there's some untapped meme/reaction image potential from old horror movie trailers...
KING LINDWORM (FULL comic)
The shepherd’s daughter is newly wedded to a deadly Lindworm…
Saul Realised I never shared this here, painting I did for a discord challenge, task was to reinterpret a piece of Medieval marginalia.
Diagrams from a thirteenth-century version of the Ars Notoria.
I drew a 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea AU of sorts, in which Nemo survives the maelstrom, and Aronnax finds and takes care of him.
