I'm not, but I feel like a burlesque elder in this town's scene when I choose renting Gypsy (1962) over hand holding a producer, and when I find out my ex is producing a show I have a great act for at a venue his other ex and I scouted previously and I just roll my pretty eyes.

And it's now every show that someone does the ol' "I've always wanted to try burlesque 🥺👉👈" Ok. I don't have an opportunity for you, and I don't think you actually want me to infodump to you about the ancestors, I think you just think "oo I wanna be pretty onstage" and that's FINE, but do you CARE?

I, for one, am really interested in more content that involves Muppets being really excited about a particular number.

My hottest burlesque hot take is that there is definitely some sort of magical mystery current that some practitioners are tapped into and iykyk when you cross paths. Like, are you a Theater Person and you dance with the Devil and Dionysus, or what? Girl, I saw you at the Sabbat you mystical bitch

Digital Photomanipulation image of Ziegfeld Follies chorus girls, appearing statue-like in grainy black and white, and inverted to create a very Spooky looking image. This is juxtaposed all collage-style against a white line art backdrop, rendered in a simplified style and alluding to a theater facade with marquee. Text in a handwritten font appears in the top corner with the discernible lines reading "lace and silk and feathers, were the show's siren call"

We literally put forensic files on in the hotel room and saw our own county courthouse on the screen. Weird weird, like, bruh WE ARE IN NEVADA.

Shot from Cherry Thrill Photography - from a show ft. Auntie Heroine headlining (!!) - to hype myself up that I'm real before getting on the plane to #bhof.

Let the record show I'm not actually a big fan of bustles, but they're better than ruffle panties or tiny hats in my book.

Parents not letting their middle school daughters (until coming out otherwise) have binders is crazy to me. Your 14 year old doesn't like grown men looking at her like meat?? They weren't there a few years ago, and now they're jiggling nuisances. It's a compression garment.

I need to start using this site more 😭 What if I meet new burly friends and they can't even tell I'm unhinged and chronically online?? I need to make my digital footprint worse.

Most frequently heard phrase on the bus: "you gotta do what you gotta do." Whatever you can take away from that. That sentiment. From people who ride the bus. Often prefaced with "That's okay."

Veggie Tales could not depict Jesus as a Vegetable, but if they did, I think he needs to be represented as a pickle (post Resurrection). I will not be taking questions at this time. Thank you.

Hamburger lingerie set making the rounds: I believe it to be an indicator species. We'll most certainly see a bloom in recession pop but stay aware, the kooky aspics and jellos are lurking around the corner. These are invasive and periodic. Their most memorable upswings being the '50s + pandemic

The future is a web of branching paths, and each choice opens up new possibilities as it closes others. This is as true for a civilization as it is for an individual. The more our collective intelligence can inform each choice, the better our chances of finding paths through to a beautiful future.

graphic of branching lifelines, with the path taken traced through it. past paths no longer in play are greyed out, possible future paths spread out like a network of roots in front

Nick Offerman TV show where he guides you through wordworking, home upgrades, refurbishing, but it's somewhat in the style and vibe of Bob Ross's Joy of Painting series. IS this anything???

7y ago I took an all time favorite pic of Josephine Shaker, and tn I mildly embarrassed myself by being the only woo girl in the audience who reacted strongly at the mention of @jeezloueez.bsky.social and Juke Joint 😳😅 No, wait - reframe. Good on me. Shame on everyone else 😂
