this just flooded my brain with so much dopamine
This They Might Be Giants TONIGHT SHOW performance of "Birdhouse In Your Soul" from 1990 remains firmly lodged in my noggin thanks to the Tonight Show Band's full commitment and Doc Severinsen's incredible trumpeting... It took an already great song and made it transcendent.

greatest thread I’ve ever seen
Hello good people of Bluesky. If you followed me on Twitter, you’ll know I’ve been documenting my sporadic trips to my mum’s house by documenting bric-a-brac, old technology which has been hoarded, and a lot of antiquated studio gear, and I thought I share it again here.

a) this poem is a banger b) it expresses the exact frustration that grips me every time someone ""feministly"" explains that military history is Boy Stuff
I tend to think every nerdy trans woman should read Margaret Atwood's The Loneliness of the Military Historian and sit with it for a moment no matter what it is exactly she's nerdy about, but that goes double for you www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/47788/...

This is why few people ask me to dinner, though Lord knows I don’t go out of my way to be scary. If I roll my eyes and mutter, if I clutch at my heart and scream in horror like a third-rate actress ch...

Thinking about the Cave of Hands, some of the art dating back to 7,300BC, where 25% of the hand prints are thought to be that of children. Imagining those people gently holding their child up to the cave walls, and using their tiny little hands as a stencil. Art = love = the human soul

Today is National Biscuit Day, and it’s about time that I populated this account with biscuit (cookie) sets from the past few years. Here are some of my favourites. 🧵
First up, a set inspired by the delicious designs of William Morris and John Henry Dearle.

This is a quilt my Granny made using dresses my mom and aunts wore in the 30s and 40s. All the stars are made from the flour sack fabric she used to make their dresses. I love this quilt so much! Thanks for the reminder of all of those wonderful women!

Let's talk about these two department store owners: brother and sister Louis Bamberger and Caroline Bamberger Fuld. From Newark, New Jersey.
They are random people, basically. But in the late 1920s, with fascism taking over Europe, they made a choice that profoundly changed the world: 🧵
