hi 1984 fandom
banned books you need to read
with everything going on in the world, it's so important to stay educated. a lot of these books are banned because there are parallels to dystopia and today. these books are just some that i have read, and i'm working on reading more banned books, so drop your recs below!
1984 by George Orwell
The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
The Giver by Lois Lowry
The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls
Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson
The Color Purple by Alice Walker
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
You're the Only One I've Told by Meera Shah
**note: by the term, "banned books", it means that these books are frequently challenged, usually by conservative groups, and as a result, these books have been banned in some schools and libraries across the US. so these do NOT mean they are banned everywhere.
BUT the trump administration is aiming to ban A LOT books across the US, and most of the books on here are on their list.**
Geralt of Rivia. fanart by me.
I really want to make a spirit tunnel TikTok of 1670 characters soooo badly
what's that one thing where they asked how ripely from alien was so realistic and believable as a female character in scifi for once and they were like "well we just took the dude from the original script and made him a girl and changed nothing else. it works bc men and women are the same?" and people were like "woah no way" and then didn't learn anything from that for 20 years
MICHAŁ BALICKI as STANISŁAW ADAMCZEWSKI 1670
Cirilla
of course can’t forget about him with his cutesy flower sweater
(੭ˊᵕˋ)੭ ❀ ✿
It's very funny that Netflix confirmed season 3 of "1670" on April Fool's Day so most news sites had to write in the headlines THIS IS NOT A JOKE
I made another shitpost
Hiii‼️ Dorian here, I'm making this blog to post all my doodles of pinterest references, things i see in real life, museum paintings and such, just so that It won't clog up my main art blog, if you like silly doodles, feel free to follow me here too :]
Guys… Filip Zaręba replaced Michał Balicki in a role of Stanisław 🥹 It’s been written in polish on some paper’s website 🥺
@rivianarts you were right!
Okay, so while reading the Season of Storms, it’s becoming wildly evident that Geralt gets ahold of textbooks relatively often, in such a way that allows him to absorb and understand the contents.
Geralt defends himself in court.
Geralt successfully defends himself in court!
Geralt educates himself on multiple complex subjects and can quote these books years after the fact.
Geralt is a reader, and he is frightfully smart.
This will probably be my most controversial design for now, but i think i have nice explanation. So, i drew fan favorite ✨Regis✨
Regis is one of the best people in witcher universe, but he is still a vampire. Geralt always felt weird about him, and when he found out what he was, he was terrified. Fringilla was also catious around him, so i figured that his very presence is intimidating.
In my headcanon, Vampires are similiar to dopplers, they can turn into various animals but only one person. And their tranformation is much more painful and grotesque which we can see in this drawing. I relied on uncanny valley, i don't want vampires in my drawings to be just another pointy thooted undeads, i want them to be smthg else. His human look should look human, but with a very small unnatural feeling, so guess what i used for inspiration. Botched plastic surgeries! Like Simon Cowell, Donatella Versace, etc. I wanted to focus on creepy smile, since in the books in the scene where Dandelion hurts his head, Regis is described with a huge scary grin. When he transforms into huge bat like creature, he basically rips his human skin off revealing horrifying, gorey insides. I think it's very interesting for Regis to look uncanny, since it's a very nice contrast for his great personality. Plus, it creates very unique dynamic between him and readers, since you will never know if he'll end up being bad, which makes his sacrifice in the end much more meaningful imo. My idea for vampires is that they can mimic human shape, but not what makes us humans. Bcz they do not understand our emotions, our mannerism, social gestures and basic human experiences, so even tho they can look human, they can never capture humanity, which causes uncanny valley.
Another subtle detail is that i tried making him look similiar to Geralt, almost like a demonic version of Geralt. And that's mostly bcz we all mimic people we like. We copy their movements and their speech when we feel comfortable. And i assume, Vampires are no different. Except instead of movements and speech, vampires borrow faces. Think of my Regis as a parody of Geralt, an extension maybe. So that's another neat detail i added.
In the upper image, he is simply discussing poetry and art with Dandelion, regardless of his creepy smile, Dandelion knows that Regis is harmless...
In the middle is my favorite scene in which when he was challanged by that priest. Here we see his petrifying and vampiric side where he walks towards the priest while scaring him shitless with his mandela catalogue type face.
And then at the bottom are simply few of his faces, mostly during the Stygga battle.
Thx ❤️✨

Where my 1670 fans at !!
Literally my experience
Ok so bitches wanna like the show Dexter now but when I recommend it people years ago they said it was weird.
Happy Walentynki 🥰
class of 09 girls + their aesthetics bc i’m tired of people not getting them.
(minor tw for sh & ed):
jecka: she’s literally a preppy, trendy 2000s teen. she wears lacoste/abercrombie polo shirts, hollister skinny jeans, american eagle, bebe jackets, and juicy couture. a lot of her clothes come from her mom’s job, as apparently her mom gets them for free.
she is a “pharma-princess” and openly idolizes paris hilton. she smokes cigarettes and casually abuses painkillers. she may be a little trashy, but she dresses like any other fashionable girl from that era.
nicole: for starters, shes lower middle class. her mom buys the cheapest internet and cable packages, as well as having nicole on the assisted lunch plan. with that being said, she’s not buying a ton of miss me jeans, bb belts, or affliction shirts. shes a hot topic/spencers fiend bc she can steal it. her outfits are usually a hoodie, tank top, or t-shirt with ripped skinny jeans- which is to say they aren’t very complicated. i think people get confused and try and dress her in the modern “y2k” fashion, but it doesn’t really work for her.
shes severely depressed and winning the idagf war, which is shown in her makeup and nails. i think her makeup routine is very messy and smudged, but thats lowkey the look.
emily: shes rich, but she doesn’t care or acknowledge it. she can buy whatever she wants, but chooses to go for the grungey/emo look. even though she’s the most “scene” character, she still follows a few trends- ex: the lifeguard hoodie. her hair is definitely damaged by the box bleach she uses and the excessive use of her straightener. i also think she 100% has raccoon eyes (in the avril lavigne-way.)
she parties with her sketchy boyfriends, day drinks, and does almost any drug she can get her hands on. she’s suicidal and highkey crazy, which results in her tattoos and scars. (the excessive SH-culture is completely on brand for the 2000s.)
ari: borderline manic pixie dream girl going through a sexuality crisis. she’s almost emo, but not quite. she wears winged eyeliner and red lipgloss. her wardrobe consists of mostly graphic tee shirts and skinny + bootcut jeans. she dyes her hair because “no one understands her,” but she still has a decent relationship with her parents.
she used to be a girl scout, so she definitely cuts her own hair and thinks it’s rebellious. i think her favorite shoe would be black high top converse.
kelly: is the definition of a trendy, trashy, 2000s girl. kelly is also rich (as stated by jecka.) she’s popular with the boys because she’s pretty, has big boobs, and dtf. she wears a lot of hollister, wet seal, juicy couture, and victoria secret. i think she would wear a full face of makeup to school. her hair is dyed blonde but she keeps the roots grown out just a little.
megan: 2000s THEATRE KID!! she’s ARTSY, not EMO. she’s apparently pretty, but not pretty enough to be constantly hit on. she wears a lot of media/pop culture clothing and jeans. (if she were in the 2010s, she would wear those hot topic disney dresses.) her hair color is her natural hair color and her nail polish is always chipped.
jecka & hunter say she’s a christian girlie, so most of her outfits are more modest and toned down compared to some of the other girls. she probably wears minimal makeup unless she’s doing a show.
karen: she’s dorky and nerdy to the extreme. she looks very mousy and homely. she likes twilight and harry potter + she works at a library (and is strict about the rules.) karen likes and is good at school. she probably only wears mascara and medicated chapstick + her glasses. she has a messy bob that she never styles.
she’s also insecure about her body, as jecka and nicole make her relapse on her ED, so she wears baggier clothing than any of the other characters.
i think she would wear sketchers and jeggings.
anywho, i like this game and im also super into the genuine 2000s fashion, so a part of me dies whenever i see someone say “nicole listens to ayesha erotica!!” or “jecka wears affliction and bb belts!” girl bffr.
w-wait...what is this.... the main chaperone ambassador????🤯
Literally what I want in life 😭😭😭
I’m becoming disillusioned with life and I wanna die. Here’s a meme though. Happy Wednesday.
