i think one of the hardest things to do as an artist is to look at your art and see where it sits in relation to other artists’ work. that kind of objectivity is antithetical to making art in the first place—we should know our influences, but it’s much harder to correctly assess the output.

nothing anyone actually wore in the 90s i’m sure. (i did see whatever it was, but it left no impression.)

i keep getting ads for “the 90s lipstick everyone wants” but it’s never toast of new york in the original shade so i don’t think they know what they’re talking about.

Illustration of a white skull partially obscured by colorful mushrooms and plants. Different fungi sprout from and around the skull, including red mushrooms with white spots, yellow fan-shaped mushrooms, gray cluster mushrooms, and orange bulbous mushrooms, with green and purple plants filling the background. A ribbon at the bottom of the skull reads “ADMIT ONE.”

private note to winona ryder’s ex: if your lady friend is after you for sex “constantly,” you are either very bad at it or very good at it. it would behoove you to find out which one.

lotta people seem to be finding out today for the very first time that women enjoy sex and want to have it with our partners. thank you for spreading the word, nicole kidman’s ex.

reminder that you can be the gentlest, kindest person--you can dedicate your life to protecting the planet!--and still keep a little list of people you fucking hate. it's okay to be angry! anger is a symptom of giving a shit!

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

this makes me so sad and my instinct is to fix it! instead i will just tell you a secret: you can add all of the broth and put it in the oven or instant pot instead of using the traditional method. if you want to!

the blurbs on these premades are better than most real blurbs!
addi.social
Anyone need a cover? I'm making some premades this morning, and open to commission as well. DM me for stuff and junk. I just made these three, and am only looking for $50 a piece right now. Prices will probably change as I set up a proper shop. Reposts appreciated! <3
