Sackvillesque - CUT WITH THE KITCHEN KNIFE

I used to play the saxophone in middle school 🕴️

it's so weird to me that everyone on this website is a human person outside of their weird internet niche so rb this with a random bit of your lore

Martha Gellhorn, from a letter featured in The Selected Letters of Marth Gellhorn

this applies heavily to me, maybe some people can tell by the username 😔

I noticed if I’m gonna be obsessed with a straight historical figure then you bet im gonna be more interested in their girlfriend than their existence.

anyone who has “known for being the love interest of ___” in their Wikipedia page I’m sorry those Wikipedia contributors did you dirty like that.

btw op (I don’t care that this isn’t Reddit) has good taste in historical figures

just realized that my favorite historical figures are always the less well-known gay lover of a famous historical person

Novelist Patricia Highsmith ate the same thing for virtually every meal: bacon and fried eggs. She began each writing session with a stiff drink—“not to perk her up,” according to her biographer, Andrew Wilson, “but to reduce her energy levels, which veered towards the manic.” Then she would sit on her bed surrounded by cigarettes, coffee, a doughnut and a saucer of sugar, the intention being “to avoid any sense of discipline and make the act of writing as pleasurable as possible.”

While I’d love to start an art history side blog, this is just my little corner of the internet for now.

I like a lot of things:

★ authors. . . katherine mansfield, franz kafka, françoise sagan, virginia woolf

★ shows. . . ghosts ✨, portrait of a marriage, hataraki man, world fool news (pls talk to me about world fool news)

★ fandom. . . US history, old hollywood, beatlegirls, athletic history, motivational vlogs lol

★ music. . . riot grrrl, vintage music, obscure classical

★ hobbies. . . playing tennis, drawing, going on wikipedia, staying up reallyyy late.

do you ever think about that joke people seem to love that's like, "why do mothers always say 'my baby is 24 months old'? no, [woman's name] your child is 2." as if it's not extremely obvious that mothers who state their baby's or toddler's age in months are dedicated to keeping track of the child's development and looking after them appropriately, which at that stage is, yes, important right down to the exact month. and mothers are answering this way because that's the number they have in their heads from spending so much of their time dedicated to the wellbeing of their child, not because they're being pedantic or annoying or whatever it is people are projecting onto these women. and it's never, "why do dads always say 'my baby is 24 months old'?" it's specifically always mothers who are made fun of for this, and they're literally just being made fun of for being good, diligent, dedicated mothers.

reblogging this one because I’ve always loved the top right pin, I really wish they’d make a reprint. I actually found a rip-off one on Etsy that would theoretically work if you just took the pin outside and weathered it down a little 😭 In terms of vintage pins, the lesbian pins really understand graphic design while the bisexual pins are suffering slightly.
