"Rationalism" is up there with "Objectivism" in terms of "definitionally funny things to call your own belief system".
i know we joke about cis artists having the weirdest sense of anatomy, but also even when the anatomy is fine, no one seems to want to draw women doing normal things
Yes we founded this hobby in late victorian europe where we divide animals of the same species from around the globe into races and measure them with calipers and put extreme emphasis on blood purity and conformity but WE SWEAR this has zero links to the eugenics movement that was coincidentally happening at the exact same time and place
Free pattern announcement!!
I’ve been working together with clockwork_faerie to bring you a pattern from an extant 1890s corset in my collection. (Waist 33”, bust 40.5”, hips 44”). It’s available for download on my blog here 🧁
The original has loads of cording and very few bones; for ease of mocking up I just made this with bones in the seams. Since it’s paneled and not gusseted, it was a super fast make - this whole thing took three hours. I made no alterations to the pattern for this mock-up. FYI, it is too small for my bust as is, and most people like to have an even 2-4" gap at the back.
This would probably best fit measurements between 38-46” bust, 33-38” waist, and 44-48” hips, but it’s also easy to modify since it’s paneled.
I wanted to make this available for free to promote access, but if you have the money and want to support more projects like this, there is a donation button on the blog (or you can use ko-fi here).
Definitely tag us if you make it, I’d love to see!

ok but one thing i love about goncharov is the ironic subversion of themes. like we have katya, the madonna-like character whose white palette screams of loyalty and purity, while andrey is the judas-like character whose motifs are the dagger and the poisoned cup.
but at the end, it’s katya who draws a gun on goncharov, and andrey who’s left holding his bleeding body in his arms. by having the “loyal wife” be the backstabber and the “doublecrosser” be the broken-hearted lover, scorsese subverts both biblical imagery and gender roles, and he does it in such a subtle and poetic way too, without taking away the complexity of either character.
I think the truth every KF fan needs to accept is that Forrest could rizz every single goddamn adult in that town and it wouldnt even be hard.
He is THE fandom bicycle solely because he has too much rizz
Forrest x Sandra? Practically canon.
Forrest x Ponty? Easy.
Forrest x Peggy? Straightforward.
Forrest x Teddy? Toxic old man yaoi, love it.
Forrest x Ricky? Go for it.
Forrest x Virginia? Fantastic.
Forrest x Marie? Spicy.
Forrest x Murphy? Stepdad 4 life.
You could ship this mf with ANYONE and it would work. He is straight. He is gay. He is queer. He has no concept of the spectrum of sexuality. He is all sexualities at once. He is infinite. Forrest is that bitch and will always BE that bitch.
2025!!!
