“I want gay things to happen to me now” I say, sitting at home being an unpleasant harridan with weird interests and very specific romantic tastes and life goals not common among my preferred dating demographic

#personal #area lesbian wants kids and a Victorian house that loves her too much and also is turned off by people who use slang too much #(memes excepted)#also not into clubbing or going to bars #also bitches about costume inaccuracy in period dramas on Movie Night #also almost 30 so you know. time is running out to actually HAVE said kids and also to be attractive #(standard not applicable to anyone but me re: attractiveness)#somehow still hopes to find love #(area lesbian is delusional)

One Dress a Day Challenge

February: Coeli's Monochrome Picks

I'm No Angel / Mae West as Tira

Coeli's comment: "Wowza!"

The pre-code era strikes again, with Travis Banton as the designer. The slinky, low-cut gown with spiderweb wrap in the bottom photo looks positively demure next to the costume she's almost wearing in the other photos. In Tira's defense, she is a circus sideshow performer. However, it's not too hard to see why this movie was cited as one of the factors leading to the implementation of the Hays Code.

Classic lines:

"Oh, Beulah, peel me a grape!"

"Well, it's not the men in your life that counts, it's the life in your men."

"When I'm good I'm very good. But when I'm bad I'm better."

Gearing up for Huevember! I rearranged this year’s colour wheel to prioritize Red at the end of the month to accommodate Secret Life, since we’ll likely have some Red shenanigans by then :3c And of course I had to make my colour wheel a sunflower ✨🌻

Since I want my inevitable Secret Life fanart to be a part of this year’s huevember, I don’t know what I’m going to paint until I paint it! To compare, last year I had a list of what each colour’s painting was going to be before November even properly started. “Okay, when I get to this shade of purple I’ll paint the Rift, when I get to this shade of green I’ll paint Bdubs’ mossy cloak.” I always knew the subject of the next day’s painting in advance.

Not this time! This year I’m improvising day by day because something epic and cinematic could happen in Secret Life (or Critical Role!) at any time! The lack of preparation is intimidating but also really exciting because it’s just gonna be that much more challenging. Last year I did huevember in order to give me something to do while I was sick as hell from Covid. But now I’m recovered… taking the ankle weights off… I’m so hype to get started! 🧡💛💚💙💜🩷❤️

#huevember #huevember 2023 #huevember2023 #this year will also be multifandom!#last year I kept it to just mcyt but this year I’m opening it to Critical Role #and also The Locked Tomb if i can swing it #the hardest part is narrowing down all my ideas to just One painting per colour #it’s not ‘oh I have to do 30 paintings’ it’s ‘you mean I can ONLY do 30 paintings??’#i want to do more brainstorming but I actually have to build a Halloween costume today…

30 days of Harvest Moon Day 5 - vibrant / child

combined the prompts! rock’s limited edition crossover Skecher x Pleaser Discolite platforms have been repurposed as a nightlight for his son (they do nothing to get him to sleep)

thank you @psychosvr for the Cool Prompts

(based on this meme)

We never really left

#byler #stranger things #birthdaygate #st5 predictions #ok so theory!#I’ve talked about this theory a million times #but basically the opening to s5 is already filmed #they had s4 fully written and s5 planned out BEFORE they returned to filming s4 after the hiatus #which means they knew that they wouldn’t be filming again until 2023 at the earliest #which means theres no way in hell they would have s5 start off right where it ended #knowing their young actors would look vastly different #and in those same exact costumes #and therefore distracting to watch them return to that setting #with 2 years passing in real life…#like they knew that wouldn’t work #and so what if…#they simply wrote the opening scene to s5 in advance?#think about it.#they said in an interview post s4 that the s5 opening is set in stone…?#and how could they plan out s5 and have the last 30 minutes of the series clear in their heads #but not the opening to s5?#arguably the opening to s5 is something they feel very confident about…#which just begs to question…#is it already filmed?#considering the bts photos of Noah at the rink o mania location in his yellow plaid…#and considering these Easter eggs connecting Jon Mike and Joyce to Max #who was cursed…#what could this possibly mean… 🤔#😏#why do you think spellbound was playing right when the screen went to black? 🤫

the thing about wearing Victorian “feminine” summer clothing in the heat is that it feels like one of those Gothic posts

you are wearing six layers and long sleeves. you are aware of this. every inch of skin from neck to floor is covered.

you are no hotter than you would be wearing your usual sleeveless modern sundress

you ARE hot, to be clear. you’re sweating. you know this to be true. “my chemise probably smells pretty bad,” you think. “I should wash it later.” you ply your fan and idly twirl your parasol. you move into the shade

you are no hotter than you would be wearing your usual sleeveless modern sundress

an event guest comes up to you, sweating profusely in shorts and a t-shirt. “Aren’t you so hot in that?” he says, fanning himself.

“well, yes, I’m hot,” you say, “but-”

“I can’t believe our ancestors dressed like that!” he says. he walks away

you open your water bottle and sip slowly. you really should feel hotter, you think. it seems fake. layers = heat, after all. that just makes sense. you are wearing six layers and long sleeves

you are no hotter than you would be wearing your usual sleeveless modern sundress

#historical costuming #historybounding #background info: I live in the greater Boston area (Massachusetts USA)#summers tend to be in the 80s F #(high 20s C)#with bumps sometimes into the 90s F (mid-upper 30s C)#and rather humid #all of my historical kit is 100% natural fiber materials

Bruce being one of the older superheroes is funny because I like to imagine when he reveals his identity he's like 45 and after everybody gets over the shock of him being Bruce Wayne, one of the younger heroes like Flash just goes like "damn you're old" and Bruce receives intense psychic damage from the comment

#45 is a little old to be jumping off of buildings #like you can't really tell his age in the costume #so most people assume someone as athletic as batman is early maybe mid 30s #same energy as that kevin hart and don cheadle interview #batman #bruce wayne #justice league #dc #dc comics #mine
