There is an opulence to our language that always flutters the delicate butterfly wings in my chest. You let me drape the excess of "delight" and "adore" and the shimmery lighted metaphors of suns, moons, and stars on you as if they were everyday wear. Between our lips is space a space for the velvet, satin, and lacy frill of feminity, but no artificial requirement for it. I love that. The richness and indulgence in the words we use to describe each other brings me a lot of joy.

Let me tell you about
The 1973 Levi’s Gremlin.
Looks like just another AMC Gremlin, yeah? Well, notice the Levi’s logo on the front fender just behind the wheel well, and you know that when you get in this car, you’re in for something very… special.
Your eyes are not deceiving you. The seats and the trunk are upholstered in GENUINE LEVI’S DENIM, complete with bronze stitching. This is not some ironic custom job from recent times, either; this was a real option offered by AMC in 1973.
And people thought it was a good idea, even!

Black Cat’s sudden but inevitable betrayal
I'm seriously re-evaluating multiple situations in my life and I don't see a future where I feel comfortable that the rug won't be pulled out from under me. People can't sustain their emotions. One moment they are in love with a concept, the next they are bored or irritated by it. I can't put any trust in that. I feel like I will constantly be building things with people that they ultimately reject, ignore, neglect or avoid till I'm forced to leave the situation. Not just in relationships, but in work and family situations, too. I suspect I'm getting close to the point where I need to retire from people, so I can recover from them.
I'm looking back at my past relationships and I'm realizing that a lot of what people call "NRE" (New Relationship Energy) isn't a cutesy description for the initial shock of new brain chemicals and their eventual tapering off. It's an excuse for lack of engagement. I experience the same chemical phenomenon without any marked reduction in my enthusiasm for or engagement with my partner.
It's more like a bait and switch experience. The trial relationship is always loving, caring, and full of mutual interests, but once the NRE chasing partner feels satiated and their needs are met, they revert to whatever behavior ruined their last relationship. Sometimes that's aggression and abuse, sometimes it's cold disdain, sometimes it's lack of interest and disengagement from shared responsibilities, but it's always something different from originally advertised.
The idea that NRE is responsible for the difference between a partner being enthused and participatory in a relationship and then again responsible for the partner becoming a progressively poorer steward of that relationship just rings hollow to me.
It’s an excuse for not doing the work of maintaining that interest. People who refuse to put effort into maintaining their relationships are more prone to chasing that NRE feeling at the expense of fully formed relationships. NRE is easy, accessible engagement that requires very little work on their part to maintain. Some people are more than content to let the happy brain chemicals and the other person do all the work of making the relationship a growing, dynamic thing. Ultimately this results in a dissatisfied partner, which means switching up for another person to get that NRE fix. If they can keep the previous partner on the hook and hopeful that their relationship will improve, all the better for them. They now have a fall back relationship for when their next NRE fix wears off.
NRE chasing is hurtful, toxic, near predatory behavior, IMHO.
The idea that someone becomes less worthy of energy, attention, affection, and relationship “work” the more times you've fucked them is right up with the notion that women become less valuable the more their pussy has been used. It's degrading and gross. The idea that a person should be able to chase that NRE in other arrangements, so they can displace that new excitement onto their existing partner (thus they don’t have the do the work of generating their own excitement) is particularly objectifying. It just another way of justifying using someone then casting them away when they’ve satisfied the purpose.
I’m pretty disgusted with relationships at this point.
10.10.20. Louisville, KY
136 days of protest in Louisville for Black Lives and against police. Louisville is the home of Breonna Taylor. DA Daniel Cameron didn’t bring any murder charges forward for the grand jury in the murder of Breonna Taylor, which meant no officer was indicted for killing a Black woman in her sleep as part of a secret raid at the wrong address.

“Stranger Fruit,” Jon Henry Photography,
Jon Henry’s Stranger Fruit series, named after the well-know song originally by Billie Holiay, was created in response to the murders of Black men across the US by police.
In Stranger Fruit, Henry photographs American mothers with their sons in a pieta-like arrangement, reenacting the pain for loss that is too common for Black families in the United States.

“ We are the arbiters. We’re the ones that create change because it’s creative in how we talk about it. We open hearts and minds in a different way. It’s not didactic, it’s not finger waving. Whether it’s visual art, whether it’s music, whether it’s storytelling in a book, whether it’s storytelling on film and screen — why do you think we’re attacked first by tyrannical governments? Why do you think that that’s the shit that’s cut first? They know.” - Billy Porter for ALLURE Magazine FEB. 2020
This is some truth laid down right here boy.
Well said.
The Vent Haven Museum
The Vent Haven Museum in Kentucky is home to nearly 1,000 dummies once brought to life by ventriloquists. It is the only museum in the world dedicated to ventriloquists.
Vent Haven was originally just one man’s personal collection. William Shakespeare (W.S.) Berger, the founder (top picture) of this museum started this museum with a personal collection of 500 dummies.
I have been to this wonderful place. The tour is super informative. It's less creepy in person.

Okay but for anyone who legit wants to know how to calculate it correctly:
The elbow joint on average rests a couple inches higher than the navel, so if you measure how long the distance is from the middle of the shoulder to that point then you have the length of the upper and fore arms!
So if anyone’s wondering about legs too, the simplest rule of thumb is that the length from the top of the leg to the knee is equal to the distance between the top of the leg and the bottom of the pectorals:
And I wanna stress that when i say “top of the leg” i’m not talking about the crotch (please don’t flag me tumblr it’s an anatomical term) i’m talking about the point where the femur connects to the pelvis, which is higher up on the hips:
It’s easier to see what I’m talking about in this photo of a man squatting:
So yeah if you use that measurement when using this technique you should get fairly realistically proportioned legs:
But remember! messing with proportions is an important and fun part of character design! Know the rules first so you can then break them however you please!

HOW THE HELL DID I FIND THIS POST OMG

Licherally in the midst of drawing a guy and crying at how bad the arms are. Thanks Tumbles
I only ever saw the part where people started drawing the limbs outrageously long and genuinely wanted to know how to fix that, so I’m really thankful to see the rest.
Striking, beautiful images with a solar punk feel.
Holy SHIT.
THE ONLY ONE ALLOWED TO SIT THERE SHOULD BE THE ARTIST AND THEN IT SHOULD GO BE IN A MUSEUM.
Hand made crafts should be worshipped for the art they are.

This is closer to what I was thinking. That’s more of a fire pit and less of an oven. If the larger half of the semi-circle curved around with a bit of an overhang for rain, that would be it.
This nonsense makes me think I can combine the oven/seating structure with a shelter structure in some way. Beautiful buildings.
I have a patch of woods that I’d like to hide in. I’m looking at a cob oven/bench combo and a maybe little cobbed leanto type structure a couple people could sleep under? I’m not sure yet.
