Q: Was It Fun To Shed Some Light Into The Backstory Between Ford And Bill Cipher And To Get A Glimpse

what if bills legs actually were proportional to his body but he just wore some very ill fitting jeans

the thing i love about bill being a flatlander is that he so clearly hates the fact that he is one but he’s also just as clearly still so attached to his dimension, even if he doesn’t realize it. i love that he falls back on being an equilateral salesman in so many of his interactions, that his role in flatland still shapes him so much. i love that he grays out the world when he appears, that he is still associated with monochrome. i love that he builds his physical form over a flat, gray version of himself. i love that he kept kryptos around, even though the guy seems to be from, at the very least, a dimension very similar to bill’s, if not literally being from bill’s home dimension. i love that even the way he dresses could be seen as cultural carryovers from growing up in a victorian environment. i love that he’s sensitive about people asking if his sides are even. i love that, when he finally gets a shot at a physical form, he basically makes himself a spacelander. i love that he has tried so hard to escape the repressive, oppressive society he grew up in, and that it still seeps through so obviously to anyone who knows even the slightest bit about him

Okay so I started watching Astro Boy (the 1980s series) and I noticed THIS… They are so damn similiar its scary. They also have a quite similiar goal, reviving their dead Child….

I am more than certain that this was an intended nod by the Pokémon staff at this series…

De herencia Purépecha, la Danza del Viejito nace en el pueblo de Jarácuaro, ubicado en la ribera del Lago de Pátzcuaro en Michoacán. Su legado es ancestral, pues data de la época prehispánica antes de la llegada de los españoles. Se ejecutaba, en cada cambio de estación, por los “Petámutis” - los sabios o chamanes - quienes eran los más ancianos del pueblo y, por ende, los únicos que podían realizar la danza. El propósito era realizar una ofrenda para el dios del sol o el dios viejo - llamado “Tata Jurhiata” -, pidiéndole por buenas cosechas, lluvias o salud para sus enfermos.

Con la llegada de los españoles la danza fue prohibida. Los ancianos del pueblo, ignorando las nuevas reglas de los colonizadores, siguieron enseñando esta tradición a sus jóvenes, quienes ahora bailaban al ritmo del tambor y la flauta, adaptándose así al proceso de mestizaje cultural adoptando nuevos instrumentos del viejo mundo. Con el tiempo la danza perdió su sentido religioso y pasó a ser una forma de burlarse de los españoles, sin que éstos se dieran cuenta.

Los danzantes portan una máscara de viejito echa con madera o pasta de caña -materia prima típica de la región-, utilizan fibra de zacate para simular el cabello del viejito. Su atuendo consiste de una camisa de manga larga y un pantalón, ambos de manta, con decorados bordados en la zona de las muñecas y tobillos. Se complementa con un sombrero adornado con listones multicolores y un bastón rudimentario de madera.

Los huaraches son imprescindibles, pues la forma de bailar esta danza es con un vigoroso y rítmico zapateo. Los danzantes se encorvan, simulando la postura de un viejito, al mismo tiempo que actúan diferentes achaques típicos de la vejez. . . #michoacan #morelia #méxico #mexico #mexicomagico #mexicodesconocido #tradicionesmexicanas #mexicantradition #ancestors #purepecha #danza #folkloremexicano #folklore #travel #travelphotography #viejitos #photo #photooftheday (at Morelia Centro, Morelia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CW_a66sPAUD/?utm_medium=tumblr
