I made this design a few years ago to practice lettering and now every few months I get served ads for it on t shirts (not sold by me)

next Pope should be whoever is best at playing dress up while managing diverse groups of weird zealots who have an unhealthy relationship to a billion dollar international cultural product. Whoever plays Goofy at Disney World would absolutely crush it imo

Thanking God today that my nephew Miles is with us for Easter today. His wound is still oozing blood but he's alive & we're thankful. The knifemen who stabbed him are still roaming around London. Perhaps around your loved ones. Happy Easter xx

And then it’s her appearing far too affectionate to him in a photograph

One of the times where you talk to your parents and realize oh this explains A LOT about me
Screenshot of a text from my dad where I simply let him know that I’ve been enjoying the live version of Dylan’s Isis lately. 

Dad:

The album Desire has story-songs.
Romance in Durango is a favorite.
Most songs were cowritten with Jacques Levy.
One of Dylan's worst songs is on the album: Joey. 8 minutes of a sympathetic view of Joey Gallo that is musically hard to sit through.
Which live version? There are a lot officially released.
There is a partial video of Isis.

Me: 
The one that is on biograph

Dad:
Ok. Caribbean Wind and Abandoned Love are on that album. Up To Me is a Blood on the Tracks outtake.

If you're a horror person who hasn't seen Eyes Without a Face, RUN, don't walk. It's on both Max and Criterion right now. Even more of a "holy crap, they made this WHEN??" horror film as its contemporaries Peeping Tom and Psycho.

A thing I noticed in golden gate cemetery is that prior to about 1999, many of the women didn't have a full name listed on the headstone, just "his wife."
Tombstone in the shade of a large tree that says GERTRUDE F HIS WIFE APR 14 1905-MAY 15 1999. It is not clear whose wife she is.

The hard truth is that there are some products you just can't make in America. These must be imported from elsewhere. Like chocolates, for example. American workers will always become overwhelmed by the speed of the conveyor belt. They'll end up shoving the sweets into their mouths and blouses

Sad news about a major musical theater figure. William Finn enriched the canon and also wrote an important chapter in the history of gay theater with the Falsettos trilogy, and The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is an enduring joy. RIP. playbill.com/article/tony...

I don’t generally nitpick the lyrics of pop songs because vibes are so much more important ,but every time I hear “mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids/ In fact, it's cold as hell/And there's no one there to raise them if you did” I make this face 😬
