I’ve been taking Mucinex a bit this week but I have no idea if it’s the guaifenesin making me feel out of it and nauseous or if that’s just my baseline state of being currently 😵‍💫

Ashland is my hometown & where my family still lives, it’s especially cool to see this much public response in Hanover County of all places; we called it “Klanover” growing up, and there are still actively maintained TEA PARTY (remember them?!) billboards out there.

Ain’t over but there IS hope.

"actually his stuff was very Derivative and not Original" like, you don't have to do this. it is good for us all to sit with the cognitive dissonance that a very bad person can make very good art. it is good for us to work through the moral ramifications of that.

A photo of a heavily tattooed woman with red hair in a tall pompadour, standing in her living room wearing 18th century undergarments: a cream linen shift, brown and beige strapless fully boned stays with a bird print, and a set of light yellow and purple side hoops or panniers

This view is from the back, really accentuating both the delicate pointed tails of the jacket and the truly impressive “18th century BBL” aka bum roll.

some completed & in progress projects… 100% hand-stitched linen shift, self-drafted stays 1.0 (2.0 in the works), some side hoops/panniers, yet another silk petticoat that still needs hemming, and the first muslin mockup for THE JP Ryan swallowtail jacket (sans sleeves still)

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

this is because Dolly Parton is the equal or better of most strung- instrument players you can name, a fact often obscured by the vocabulary of iconography sometimes used to discuss her work. thanks for coming to my presentation this’ll take about half a hour
