Duponceau - Tumblr Posts

these are some scetches of du ponceau inspired by @littlewritingrabbit’s AMAZING story “operation tortoise”

I’M SORRY COULDN’T RESIST just a small meme about duponceau’s and von steuben’s first meeting ofc, this is all for @littlewritingrabbit

Oh man, just let me inhale, and I can ramble individually about random figures in the American Revolution who nobody cares about, and then the war in general, and if we have an extra 3 hours, I'll recite all Hamilton.

Just you wait.

😏

the spn drama could take a whole year to explain in the least so i’m good

Every day, I wake up and open Wattpad and ao3, hoping that the people have discovered the baron's harem, and Steuponceau.

Every day, I am disappointed.

YEESH...

Sorry Pierre, we still aren't there yet.

(Du Ponceau's Book, "American Law: The formative years: A dissertation on the nature and extent of the jurisdiction of the courts of the United States.")

Ririririririiriii I'm sorry my angel we're tryingggggg

I say I wanna meet Von Steuben but in reality with how broken my French and German are, I'd probably just freak out and since I basically only learn these languages to write fanfiction I'd know only the most inconvenient words so I'd probably just be like "uh...embrasse les garçons oui?" And he'd probably either be like hell yeah or like wtf and Du Ponceau would be there BC ofc he'd be and then either way I'd just start crying after a while and uh ruh roh that would suck, do your French lessons kids.

Maybe I'd show him some art that he'd either love, or that would make him cry, too.

Anyways, tags go (Aaron) Brrrrrrrr and save me from this post

Just saw a source saying that Baron Von Steuben showed up all bedazzled as we know with his doggo and "secretary"...

"SECRETARY"?!

The QUOTATIONS!?

Oh damn you better tell me about this "SECRETARY" he had...wowwwwww

😭😭😭😭

Anygays, woohoo! Tags.

Hey my, like 30 followers! LETS COMPLETELY CHANGE THE MOOD FROM MY LAST HORRIBLE, ATROCIOUS, DISGUSTING POST!1!1 Enjoy a silly bOi Du Ponceau sketch I made during theatre because idk man the director was focusing on other ppl? :DDDDD

(ft. my low quality android camera, 6$ sketchbook, and my illegible handwriting♥️♥️♥️)

anygays, tag time♥️♥️ reblog this if you would NEVER disparage Du Ponceau like that, and completely recognise Mandarin and Vietnamese as lexi(co)graphic.😤😤😤

I'm like 99.9999% I'm interpreting this weirdly and wrongly but uh I read somewhere that Du Ponceau would basically monitor every conversation the baron had with a woman and assuming they're lovers by the way that's just SO, SO FUNNY TO ME like bro he's not gonna hit on her you're in good hands this is the gayest man ever like 😭😭🤧🤧

To be fair this was also the "pretty young French secretary" and "plaything" website, so this isn't an 100% confirmed phenomenon, but if it is, c u t e.

Anygays.

(there's been A LOT of Du Ponceau on my acc lately-)

IMPORTANT!!!!

TOMORROW, JUNE 3RD, IS THE BIRTHDAY OF PIERRE-ETIÉNNE/PETER-STEPHEN DU PONCEAU!!!!

DU PONCEAU WAS A FRENCH-AMERICAN LINGUIST AND LAWYER, AS WELL AS THE PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL SOCIETY!!! HE WAS THE FIRST MAJOR WESTERN LINGUIST TO STUDY ASIAN AND INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES, AND EVEN COINED TWO MAJOR LINGUISTIC TERMS STILL USED TODAY!!! DU PONCEAU WAS ALSO HEAVILY SPECULATED TO HAVE BEEN BISEXUAL, AND TOMORROW IS BISEXUAL PRIDE DAY!!! EVERYONE TOLD HIM TO WRITE AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY, BUT HE DIDNT, BECAUSE HE THOUGHT HE WASNT WORTH REMEMBERING!!! LETS SHOW HIM THAT HE WAS!!!!

Reblog this to show pretty boy that he was so worth remembering.

I can just imagine

"Liebling, sag den Amerikanern zu ******************** bis sie*****************uns *****************"

"J-Je-je ne peux pas dire ça..."

"Ouais, du kannst?????"

honestly,.,. Dream Job. Also, the Baron is a Gay Icon™ and I love him

I'm crying because I lost my anxiety management book but here's a sketch of the pretty boy (ft. Tumblr quality)
