The problem with the SS was lack of discipline, I hear.

Carving linocuts while I wait for final papers. So satisfying (the carving, not the papers πŸ˜‚).

Woman in a xenomorph hat and a child in a Godzilla costume.

As I always say, the best Halloween costume is an elaborate inside joke about declining public transportation infrastructure by way of a 40-year-old science fiction franchise. Particularly in combination with a lizard that critiques nuclear war. Halloween is famously a holiday of ideas.

Rereading Wells’ The Time Machine, and this story about an attenuated race of vegetarians frolicking among once grand institutions, waiting to be hunted by carnivorous trolls, while a guy panics that everyone has gotten stupid and desperately plots to escape his timeline does not hold up at all.

When you begin a chapter in Dickens and you can tell he’s going to kill an orphan, is that the same pleasure for Victorians as when u are watching the latest Jurassic Park movie and you know the T-Rex will eat somebody? Like it’s the pleasure of the familiar motions of a beloved genre? lol

'The Landing in Summer.' Mary Dawson Elwell emerged on the British art scene as a painter of interiors, or more strictly, 'portrait interiors,' of her Yorkshire home in the 1930s. Her watchwords are stillness, silence, containment, privacy, meditation, illumination.

Before there were computer databases to make sure you weren’t a bigamist, they read banns each week for three weeks in the Anglican church so neighbors had time to wreck it for you. That’s why people eloped to Scotland if they were in a hurry. Poor manners to wait for the wedding but much more fun!

The third and final wave of my Canterbury Bells. This has been the very best plant I’ve ever grown. I already miss her. πŸ₯² #bloomscrolling
