tumblr is such a different animal than other social media platforms for so many reasons obviously but one thing i really find funny about it is how on other sites if i see something that doesn’t interest me i don’t follow or don’t like the post. but on here if someone i follow starts posting exclusively about something really niche that i have no interest in my reaction is never to unfollow. its just part of the natural environment. like oh mutual is now really into pro wrestling? ok i guess ill be seeing these guys around now

So called “Landschaftskleid” (Landscape-dress) of Elector Johann Georg von Sachsen, 1611
Consisting of breeches, a doublet, a cloak, a hat and a baldric, this suit was gifted to Elector Johann Georg by his widowed mother Sophia.
All garments are made of silk and heavily embroidered, featuring small-scale depictions of different regions and ladscapes, hence the name “Landschaftskleid”. Most of the depicted regions are part of the Duchy of Saxony, where Johann Georg ruled. So he basically cosplayed his own country.
Currently exhibited at the Rüstkammer in Dresden, Germany.
Isn’t that reason enough to keep living? To rediscover simple delights one moment at a time, I mean.
