I feel like people should be made more aware of the fact that the artist who made the Great Wave, you know, this one?
The print that’s slapped on every single handbag, bookmark and phone case from here to Japan?
Well, guess what
That is the same artist that is responsible for KICKSTARTING HENTAI
DREAM OF THE FISHERMANS WIFE, THE DRAWING THAT STARTED IT ALL
Made by the one and only Katsushika Hokusai.
This man truly made an incredible impact on art history.

| Anonymous | whats ur favorite bird? |
anon you have just opened pandora’s box
My favorite particular bird is the Pfeilstorch! This is a piece of taxidermy from the early 1800s currently on display at the University of Rostock in Germany.
In the early 1800s, natural historians and biologists did not know where birds went for the winter. They just disappeared. Some people thought they hibernated like bears, or turned into fish (!!) or flew to the moon (!!)
Cut to 1822 when a this bird was found in Germany. It was still alive, walking around with this spear in its neck. The spear was made from wood that only grows in central Africa. The German biologists determined that the bird had been speared in central Africa and then flew north to Germany. This was how they figured out that birds migrate with the changing seasons.
Titanic: Project 401 allows you explore a jaw-droppingly authentic recreation of the RMS Titanic, from first class all the way down to the engine rooms.
Can’t wait for the submersible DLC
I say this with affection: the Honor & Glory guys are absolutely fucking insane. They’re going on? Eight years of work now? With the eventual end goal of recreating every inch of Titanic in painstaking historic detail. There used to be an actual game planned for the environment as well but I think at this point it’s 100% about the ship.
Godspeed, you lunatics. Hopefully my computer will be able to handle the end product.

Top: in 2022, the official webcomic based on the 1993 SNES platformer Plok featured a reference to an obscure cut character from Super Mario Sunshine, Hinokuri (widely known by an unofficial name, “Tramplin’ Stu”, given to it by the community).
Bottom: Hinokuri/Tramplin’ Stu appeared in the game’s first reveal trailer at SpaceWorld 2001, but is absent in the finished version’s gameplay. Its model can still be found in the files, shown on the right.
