A gentle reminder to move your bones
I never got into her music but her tastes in costumes and theatrics are absolutely incredible. That dress is the most exciting thing I’ve seen in ages, across all art disciplines.
It is infuriating to see in French, where our equivalent of the NYT loves to make everything sound pretty and just cannot help themselves (they also go so far as to use poetic-sounding euphemisms to talk about rape, that’s French culture for you).
Also love the song she wrote about her dad, “I love you, I hate you”.
Yes! And then looking at something I’ve drawn, the music I listened to while making it will immediately start playing in my head.
Nope, Japanese! onlineonly.christies.com/s/arts-asia-...
French paperback copy of Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina with a pulp novel style portrait illustration
I am not, weirdly enough considering how many hours of podcasts I listen to each week. I just love to hold books and write on them. I will get back to it, but for now, I need to finish this very cunty copy of Anna Karenina I found on the street the other day.
War & Peace used to be the book I kept by my bed because I found it so hard to get into that it put me right to sleep. Now you’re the second person in a month to make me really want to give it a shot.

That tracks! I thought they were the same thing!
Same thing, as it seems they also stuck wings to its back. Poor dead little things. Where have you seen those?
A wolpertinger! Bavarian mythical creature.
When I followed you after your great pear dessert experiments, I didn’t expect your possum selection to become a highlight of my digital life.
We’re gonna win.
Great conversation. It did not need to provide all the answers (who could?) for it to feel encouraging.
I’ll add a recommendation to buy and read both books - sharp, very well written, will leave you wanting to tell everyone you know about them.
i think sometimes cis people truly have a hard time understanding that jk rowling is a living person actively using her wealth to fund the international assault on trans lives. she’s not some Complicated Author we can have a spirited debate about separating from the art with!!!!!
Yes! I went to the premiere in Paris, she was there to introduce it. It was so great!
Caught a screening of Kelly Reichardt’s The Mastermind in a tiny cinema, at a price that made me wonder what year it was (€5!). I loved it! Didn’t expect it to be funny on top of its general brilliance.
housing is more expensive now, but also a lot safer. this kind of home was considered cream of the crop in the 1980s
My local cinema is screening My Neighbour Totoro and Scarface at the same time, a really great illustration of the French expression “two rooms, two vibes”.
Love the wicker man especially!
You know what, I originally just drew it to pin it above my desk because I keep on fucking up my neck & back. Those lateral stretches help a ton!
