I tried making some (non-animated) reaction images to try and link to when needed. So far they haven't worked in any of the threads in which I've wanted to use them.
While looking up the Otto Dix portrait, I also found his painting of Dr. Wilhelm Mayer-Hermann ; I’d known for years that “I’m just going to make everyone look ugly ‘cos I hate’em” wasn’t really Dix’s motivation (apparently he and Dr. Heinrich Stadelmann were pretty good friends, and a lot of his sitters were proud to have been painted in his snarky style ) but I love it that Dr. Mayer-Hermann, years later when both he and the painting had separately ended up in New York, apparently liked to visit his portrait in the Museum of Modern Art and eavesdrop on people’s reactions.
Wow, Florence Bates had an interesting life.
Gearing up for Hallowe’en: “When He Died” by Lemon Demon is the cheeriest slice of horror you’ll hear this week:

When he died
Turns out he left behind a mansion full of other people's skulls
The odd thing is
they never found his own
