Puritans - Tumblr Posts
It’s true and you should say it.
The last of the non-fiction drawings from when I had computer troubles.
This was really common when I was in primary school - comparisons of clothing styles between puritans and catholic royalists. One thing I noticed though is that they tended to show upper-class royalists, and middle or lower-class puritans, so I drew a standard upper-class royalist pair (although they ended up looking way too much like the actual king and queen...) and tried to find information on what upper-class puritans would wear.
It turns out puritans were very much in favour of the social hierarchy, and upper-class puritans would have worn richer fabrics and embellishments like ribbons and lace edging to visually indicate their social standing. The open-fronted skirt was apparently a more conservative style at the time, because it required less of the more expensive outer fabric.
Kill them. Kill the Xenos immediately. Then use their body for corpse starch.
I need ALL of you to understand that your silly little technicolor furry/scaly/protogen/“creature” OCs would be shot down the moment anyone saw them without hesitation.
Super Earth is the right hand of the god of xenophobia that is Warhammer 40,000, meaning everyone that isn’t 100% human in appearance is dead on the spot.
Hell, they’d probably do worse than that. I wouldn’t put Super Earth past classified concentration camps for people with birth defects, or worse, grievously unethical human experimentation that’s hidden behind the guise of a placebo medical program.
“Oh, you think we’re just gonna give you some pills for a few weeks and you can just leave? Hell no. We’re going to pump a gallon of medical class deliriants into your body to see how much fear the human body can handle. Our Helldivers will really benefit from this glorious sacrifice of yours.”
They might not even bother with all that. They might have mandatory legislation that states they HAVE to abort the baby, and force the grieving family to work on a hell-colony on Hellmire, or god forbid a Terminid hive world.
You wanna know what’s crazy?! It could be EVEN MORE BRUTAL. They could just toss them off a cliff like the Greeks did and brand it as some sick, demented ritual to appease the “Spirit of Democracy”. Shit’s fuckin’ BAD, brother.
Super Earth is a DYSTOPIAN society that makes no place for anything different or erratic. It’s all black and yellow, and the people who are not wearing black and yellow are killed because the government tells them that they are wrong, bad, stupid and dumb and a bunch of poopy face losers.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk about the nature of societal dystopias like these being inextricably linked to puritanical hellscapes.
(It looks really good btw)
