The Arms of Lancelot du Lac.

It is rare to find a knightly character in medieval fiction with a universal and recognizable coat of arms (yet, the direction of the stripes is inconsistent). Even Roland didn’t get that.

Use of his arms in images seems to have fallen into disuse after the Victorians, I cannot think of a film that uses the stripes. If you’ve seen one, please let me know as I’ve seen a lot of King Arthur movies, including that terrible mess First Knight.

It amazes me that medieval people cared so much about these stories that they almost universally (a tough word to use for the middle ages) gave this non-existent knight a sigil.

Even if it he looks like he defends himself with a candy cane.

bathsabbath: is-it-me-ur-lookin-4: boundlessstardust: lucifelle: This is a picture of Luke Rowles when he was 15. He saw a group of men in a garden, kicking and beating this poor fox whose mouth had been sealed shut with duct tape. Lucas went straight to them without regard to his own safety, he shouted at the men and grabbed the fox. After healing his wounds, he freed the animal. Today, Luke continues rescuing animals for the RSDR - The world needs more brave people like Luke, with an unconditional will to help those in need. angel Click here if you want to read up on the Rudozem Street Dog Rescue and see what Luke and his family are up to. It’s awesome stuff. I wish I had a photo of the exact moment I lost faith in humanity. But that photo probably wouldn’t go on to restore others faith in humanity, it would just make them question why some kid is so upset on the ET ride at Universal Studios. (via TumbleOn)

These space colony concept drawings were the result of collaboration between Princeton physicist Gerard O’Neill, the NASA Ames Research Center and Stanford University in the 1970’s. They held a series of space colony summer studies which explored the possibilities of humans living in giant orbiting spaceships.
