Good night, sweet prince,
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

thank god for curly hair because even on my hashtag bad hair days there is always someone who thinks my hair is fire

"Mortuary chest from Winchester Cathedral, Winchester, England. This is one of six mortuary chests near the altar in the Cathedral, this one purports to contain the bones of King Edred d. 955, along with others." - picryl.com This has Edred's name at the top with his DOD. Above is is a cross with a crown on top. At the bottom are two angels on each side of a plaque in Latin.

Who Lies in Winchester’s Medieval Mortuary Chests?

"The tangled remains of medieval kings and bishops at Winchester Cathedral are finally beginning to give up their secrets."

the great thing abt knowing how to sew is that the thrift store is truly a sandbox to me. an unmitigated land of potential. the horrible thing abt knowing how to sew is not having a sewing machine

the beauty of being in school is that i am watching everyone return back to their jobs after the holidays and meanwhile i will continue to spend my winter break reading by the river and going on long walks

I didn’t see any of the movies but this title is really not trying. “The Fellowship of the Ring,” that’s trying. “The Two Towers,” man cmon. “The Return of the King.” Elite titling game. “The Hunt for Gollum” you basic ass bitches. Not a Tolkien stan but that dude should haunt your asses for this

Tennessee whistleblower says library board chair sought private data as part of state's book purge A First Amendment expert told The Advocate that there are "huge" legal implications stemming from the situation.

Officials in Tennessee aren't just banning books, they're now demanding information on who checked out contested (largely LGBTQ+) books, including names, addresses, and "household composition."

A librarian who was given the directive has come forward asking for whistleblower protections.

An excerpt from The Washington Post's interview with photographer Christopher Anderson: Question: "Were there moments that you missed? Anything that happened that’s on the cutting room floor?" Anderson: "I don’t think there’s anything I missed that I wish I’d gotten. I’ll give you a little anecdote: Stephen Miller was perhaps the most concerned about the portrait session. He asked me, 'Should I smile or not smile?' and I said, 'How would you want to be portrayed?' We agreed that we would do a bit of both. And then when we were finished, he comes up to me to shake my hand and say goodbye. And he says to me, 'You know, you have a lot of power in the discretion you use to be kind to people.' And I looked at him and I said, 'You know, you do, too.'"
