in a couple years these same american universities will teach classes on the genocide in Gaza, organize panels on how it happened, and host memorials that capitalize on the scholarship and activism they are currently penalizing

A random anime fanart website will have better tagging and findability than some world-class museums.

If the museum field knew what was good for them, they would get the weebs who run boorus to rehaul their metadata systems.

It’s clear that the Democratic PR machine is targeting Los Angeles right now. “Oh people are starting to make the connections about giving the police billions while critical services are being cut? TIME TO GASLIGHT!”

Don’t fall for it.

Today, a brush fire started in Pacific Palisades fueled by extremely high winds.

At the Getty Villa, some trees & vegetation on site have burned, but no structures are on fire, and staff and the collection remain safe.

The Villa is closed to non-emergency staff and the public.

1⃣ Julia Child's kitchen. When I first saw it, I instantly knew that—among all the amazing things on view from @smithsonian—this would be be the highlight of my DC museum visits. Making this one of my pilgrimage spots whenever I visit DC.

My five favorite things I saw in museums this year:

2⃣ Madonna & Child Enthroned w/ Angels at @NortonSimon. Certain material qualities of medieval art really are best experienced in-person. My latest obsession is with the punchwork used to tool out patterns like the halos and borders in this retablo panel.

Reading Margery Kempe through the lens of the hater. Yeah ok, Marge, Jesus definitely came down and said He is in you, and therefore anyone who negs you is also negging Him. 🙄
