Makes me miss my tumblr of #redandwhite #sexanddeath pictures. Nothing will make me forgive the false dichotomy between tumblr making everything a meme and Pinterest making everything an ad. Library and Archive souls like yours make it better.

In Western society, sex and death have remained two big taboos not to be talked about openly. Both taboos are strong forces which remind us that we're just part of nature, and they raise one of our main fears: the loss of control.

This is some work of a friend of mine, Peter in Australia, who does the most amazing silk screen designs if any of you are interested.

Orson Welles (spouse of Rita Hayworth)—discussing Hayworth’s photo on Crossroads Able nuclear bomb:

Welles makes clear that Hayworth DOES NOT use atomic branded lipstick & DID NOT ask to be on the bomb.

Black & white photo of a thin, white woman, a “vegas showgirl” in a short (top & bottom) white one piece outfit with an overly tall mushroom cloud crown. The woman has dark hair & is standing poolside at a Vegas Hotel with one hand on her thigh and the other patting her crown. To the left is a stairway on which five USA service members (all men) are visible or partially visible at various heights gazing worshipfully upon the woman and her crown.

Not so practical for daily wear and I am still covetous of this crown.

Ah, Las Vegas in the 1950s & the days of atmospheric continental nuclear explosive testing.

IIRC that is Linda Lawson in 1955 (not 1995 as previous skeet version claimed).
