Thank you! I hope you find good friendships along the way , too.
I might have made a new friend in the real world! It’s quite exciting as that doesn’t happen often and I feel very lucky, if the friendship sticks.
Thandiwe Newton is an amazing reader! Her rendition of Jane Eyre is stunning. I’m currently working my way through her reading of War and Peace and it’s equally gorgeous.
She has a voice for each character and helps one dig into the stories. Listening to her, I’m not brought out of the story thinking of her as an actress.
I’d listen to her read the phone book!
Growing up I would hear people hating on her. But this was pre-internet so perhaps the World Wide Web has lessened the Willie bashing?
Willie in Temple of Doom. So what if she wasn’t cut out for the big adventure! She liked her life in Shanghai- dresses, performing, champagne, and nightlife. She didn’t ask for any of what happened next!
Haha- it’s always the shoes, isn’t it? I walk a lot and it’s really driven my footwear choices over the years. There is little crossover between the truly comfortable (hello, plantar fasciitis) and fancy stylish.
Though back in the day I would wear heels and tights for my retail jobs. Definitely helped me sell more!
I love this and wish people would still get more dressed up to do random stuff.
He’s such a whiner!!!
Amazing how this artistic style makes ancient Romans so relatable to me. And it’s so simple- four wriggly puppies playing (or napping?).
The carver was just noodling around one day with a left over scrap of marble and instead of practicing on ears or beard curls, they say fuck it and produce some pups.
All my comments on this sub are “reminds me of such-and-such!”, so here goes: reminds me of Nilfgardian armour in the Witcher 3!
It’s gorgeous and am so curious to know how uncomfortable it is.
Hahah- i started calling myself a San Francisco conservative: absolutely left leaning but compared to the folks in SF I’m not blue enough.
Gorgeous! And I hope your lace project doesn’t turn out like mine- looped around my neck in a bunch, thereby ruining the delicate look.
Listen to music! Especially something that makes me dance, like 90s house music.
Ahhh, the Leg Tent! A favorite for our boys.
Given away by the 3rd century AD’s version of Burger King.
Amazingly vivid colors though!
pizza Bianca- my new favorite
Feel I still have a ways to go due to the darker spots on top but overall I’m pretty happy with this result! Because of timing issues, the dough sat for 2 days before baking.
