Strega Nona’s spaghetti lunch was a success! Nona loves and appreciate you all, especially those of you who ate her excess spaghetti. She has asked me to let you know that she is available for children’s spaghetti parties as well as small business spaghetti parties.

Strega Nona, a grandmotherly witch. Her smiling face is actually a mask. She wears a maroon sweater, green vest, cream skirt, and white apron. A matching cream veil covered her hair. Her arms are raised as if to say “Come get some spaghetti!”

Strega Nona, a grandmotherly witch, stands with her hands curled into fists, as if she were just beckoning someone to come eat spaghetti.

Foto meme de um tipo de efeito dominó em que as peças ficam gradativamente maiores, um homem esta prestes a derrubar a peça menor onde o texto diz em inglês "learning to draw" (aprendendo a desenhar) e na peça maior no final da fileira o texto diz "everybody knowing what your fetishes are" (todo mundo descobrindo quais seus fetiches são).

Friend: seriously?

Probably unsurprising to know that there was a period of childhood where I was really into learning about traps

I would be so into this place if they didn’t use generative AI, but truly them doing that is such a huge turn off. To the point I have almost zero desire to go now. It sucks, cuz I know they really did put it so much work outside of that aspect. Wish they’d respect their own work :/

If a Korean style spa opened up in my city, I’d be there all the time. The one in Atlanta is amazing and I’ve been chasing that high for years

ashley scarebanks 💀🕯️ @ziibiing.com · 1d

i just wish there was any sort of american equivalent (outside of like la,nyc,chicago) of the spa culture in china or korea. just like a crazy place you can go to all day and eat and hang out and soak in a hot tub and get massages or take a nap

I'm so proud of everyone from my old neighborhood of Rogers Park in Chicago. I see what you have been and are doing. I am so proud of how organized the community is and how much more so everyone is becoming. It is inspiring. Just one example... And this is something EVERYONE can do. Everyone.

Informational flyer about Rogers Park Whistle Protocols, explaining how to use whistles to alert neighbors of emergencies, with color-coded alerts, steps for use, and encouragement to form a crowd and stay loud for safety.

You can’t tell from the picture, but it’s humming with activity too. All the pollinator neighbors love my yard

My white asters’ bloom just ended, but the purple ones just started popping off this week.

Aromatic asters bush. Small purple flowers with yellow centers.

every now and then I end up in a non-freak majority crowd and its like "oh shit right most people don't actually have fun most of the time"

just in general bending my life towards spending as much of my time as possible around freaks and queers and weirdos has been the best thing ever

A royal purple one would also be good. Truly, a color for every occasion is the way to go. Might as well build an entire wardrobe around it

I have a similar one in black and red. I feel like a very recent, very wealthy widow whenever I wear it

It is amazing how much the brain does when you tell it to take a break and go on a walk.

Mariah McCourt @monsterteatime.bsky.social · 4d

When I struggled with something writing-wise I take a walk. And 100% of the time I end up figuring out the solution. I would never, ever, ever, ask a machine to do that for me. Wtf.

For many years, I was certain I’d die of TB and I was repeatedly assured that wouldn’t happen. But now I’m thinking maybe…

These have been making the rounds on tumblr, so you should also see my decade-old fanart of Wicked Lady

A young woman in a dark flowing hair in a dress modeled after, I think, an Elie Saab dress from the mid-2010s. She’s under a red parasol.

The same young woman with two spiral oxhorn pigtails in a white dress.

It’s been 5 days since this post and I haven’t worked on my website at all in the interim, but I’m closer to the spiritual understanding that the real solution I seek is to get offline

Stella Glitterbomb @shoelais.bsky.social · 10d

Actually I may give up social media entirely and focus on finishing my shitty little website where you can read about the weird art I’ve been making. I’ve been terminally online since I was single digits years old and I’m tired
