Karen Carpenter wasn't even real guys. She was just a piece of gossamer, she was a fragrant phantom, a piece of delicate fabric stitched together from all our silly hopes and dreams of the 70s.

She was too precious for this world

Just a reminder that Gram Parsons was cool as hell ❤️

Iconic singer-songwriter Gram Parsons wearing a Gram Parsons and The Fallen Angel's t-shirt. He is holding a beer and wearing a hat and sunglasses, there are rings on some of his fingers and a cool turquoise bracelet plus a gold necklace

An alternate ending for Thelma & Louise where after they drive off the cliff the car takes flight and sails away into the clouds just like at the end of Grease

Opal says it's spooky season now!

A grey cat looks over her shoulder at the camera, she looks kinda creepy! Next to her is a glowing mushroom lamp on a decorative doily. The cat is in front of a window with a curtain and the sky outside looks dark blue and ominous

Opal the cat sits next to a mushroom lamp, she has a cute look on her face like she is very pleased

what's wrong with being put in a corner? you get a full view of the room before you and you can rest your head against the wall when the ennui of daily life becomes too much to bear

Boomer:

Doctor, I asked her what was wrong and she said she was butt-hurt. Is that something I need to make an appointment for?

Someone I truly admire

A black and white photograph of Afeni Shakur. She is holding a camera. She has glasses on her head and is wearing a leather vest and a dark long sleeved t-shirt. Her face is turned upward and she looks deeply focused

Afeni Shakur sits cross-legged on the ground in a garden. She is wearing a black graphic t-shirt and blue jeans. Her hands are in her lap. She looks thoughtful. There is a house in the background, a tree is behind her with a decorative blue glass sculpture hanging from it. There is also a grey statue that sits to her right.

My favorite kind of youtube comment:

I am 70 years old, I was raised by wolves and spent most of my childhood at the bottom of a well. I have never heard a song before today and I must say now I am a fan for life. I'll never forget the first time I heard Blueberry Faygo by Lil Mosey
