The makers of the #Madagascar series, consulted the paintings of artist #HenriRousseau for inspiration for the movie's sprawling jungles and leavy trees. Here is a #funwithfundas thread on this strange French painter who died #OnThisDay in 1910. (1/n) 
Henri Julien Félix Rousseau was born in 1844 in Laval, a market town in northwest France. His work is said to belong to the Naïve or Primitive style. The 1870s and 80s saw an #Impressionist wave in Europe. Rousseau's #art moves in a new brisk direction from impressionist roots.
Rousseau took painting pretty later on in his life, in his forties. At 49, he retired from his job as a customs clerk on the outskirts of the city to paint full-time. He was known by the nickname Le Douanier or customs officer for the same reason.
Well this is interesting, Google is honoring #SylviaPlaths birthday today... No mention of this by Google of course but just looking into her story for 5 minutes reveals her husband Ted Hughes introduced her to occult practices- contacting Pan?..
2/ Contacting dark entities through Ouija,seances etc, is never a good thing, as you dont know what you are going to get.
3/ SO they were contacting Pan and trying to get answers, nice..Pan is associated with paganism, satanism and pedophilia.
a trickster.

She did indeed descend into madness, but how much did the occult rituals play a role?

Fell into a 90s/00s #suicide anthem music loop this afternoon and it reminded me of how depressed I have been in the past and how depressed I am now, again, and how much we still don't discuss #depression in this society.

I wrote this a couple years ago.
It's a good piece on writers & suicide, with an emphasis on #LGBT suicides because we kill ourselves more (thanks #homophobia/#transphobia)than str8 people.
Society still romanticizes #depression instead of treating it.
