occasional reminder that it's ok to make mistakes in art or not be super productive or performing at a high level
artists can tend to be very unforgiving of themselves, just ease into the process and get all the good/bad/meh ideas out of your system until you get something consistent

Universal signed Conrad Veidt to be their resident creepy guy, a post unfilled since Lon Chaney left for MGM. Veidt was, of course, gloriously macabre but he also added something to the mix: sex appeal

Leaving Hanwell
Photo of an Elizabeth line train leaving Hanwell Station.
A short walk from here is the Wharncliffe Viaduct. The viaduct was built in 1836 and is a picturesque place to view trains zooming on their respective journeys. I'll see if I can find some photos of it!

Lot of Lolita talk going around. It truly is one the greatest English language novels, written so beautifully you could die of jealousy, but it transparently is a horror novel. Not a romance. It’s a nightmare in which part of the nightmare is our complicity with the narrator.

I often wish the band Nancy Boy had recorded a song called "Placebo" but life's not fair, I guess 😮💨

This may surprise some people to hear, but intellectually disabled people are literally just people lmao. You’ve probably met way more than you think. It’s literally fine, there’s no need to do this weird uncomfortable dance a lot of people do, literally just talk to people like they’re people lol

Tangent, but while I’m personally not intellectually disabled (at least not according to any test I’ve ever been forced to take), it rubs me the wrong way when some of my fellow autistic do the whole “Autistic people aren’t ID!!!!” Thing. Lots of us aren’t, but some are, and that’s fucking fine.
