Studying With Dyspraxia: 3 lessons you need to know
Studying With Dyspraxia surprised people. Instead of another personal story, I chose to develop a survival guide to university for dyspraxic students.

Elizabethan playhouses were supplied by a network of tailors, merchants & craftswomen. Their names survive in records, but little is known about their lives. I’m working on new research that brings the stories of these makers & traders centre stage. Here is the project in biscuit (cookie) form. 🍪
A photograph of eight rectangular biscuits (cookies) arranged in two rows on a square white plate. The plate is framed on all sides by a trailing vine pattern in green with pops of red. The biscuits are mostly in shades of ivory, cream, yellow, and grey, with a burst of vivid red and blue in one corner of the arrangement. Moving across the top row of biscuits from left to right, the designs include: neat lines of handwritten names in an early modern parish register; a section of a hand-drawn map from 1561 featuring St Paul’s Cathedral, with street names like ‘Carter Lane’ visible in a tiny spiky font; an extract of text from a funerary monument printed in an early modern book, ending ‘So transitory is our glory’; a section of embroidery from a funeral pall featuring metallic silver armour, crossed gold keys, and two hands holding up a crown. The biscuit designs on the bottom row include: horses prancing past shopfronts on Cheapside in the mid-sixteenth century; a receipt written in early modern secretary hand, which is difficult to read; a portrait of a stern-looking women dressed in a ruff, pearls, and sober dark clothing; swirling calligraphy and dense secretary hand featuring on a will dating from 1638.

Finished my #tricolourcowl by #hannahfettig knitted in #theweeyarncompany in the Glastig fingering weight. Overall I enjoyed the texture and colour of the project but I think, for me, the fabric was a little too drapey so will continue to use sock yarn instead #knitting #knitsky

A few years ago I went to a pig sanctuary and most of the pigs were stoned from eating green acorns. This one, Wilbur, couldn’t stand up and was too big to lift, so the staff had to leave him in this bush and wait for him to sober up.

If Dolly was our constant reminder that it was Good to be Good, Tim Curry was our reminder that it was Good to be Weird. Embrace your strangeness, sing with Muppets, wear your lingerie with a leather jacket, and fuck with uptight people who hate anything that makes them remotely uncomfortable.

One of the more obscure facts I remember about Dolly Parton is this: just like Star Trek would not exist without Lucille Ball, Buffy would not exist without Dolly Parton. She was a silent producer of the movie and show. That's why Buffy Summers has the same birthday as Dolly: January 19.

I always found it admirable that Dolly seemed totally awestruck by Whitney’s “I Will Always Love You” No jealousy, no protectiveness of her own work, just joy that somebody had taken the song she wrote and made something new and special out of it.
confirming this. Parton also publicly stated she liked Houston's version of the song better than her own. 14]
Parton recalled that when she first heard the song while driving in Nashville the week of its release that she "just heard this voice come on the radio. It kind of rang a bell, but it didn't hit because she was kind of talking it. Then, all of a sudden, it went into the l Will Always Love You' part and I just about wrecked. I had to pull off the side of the road, seriously, to listen to it." 216]
Parton stated that she was "overwhelmed" and that Houston "made it so much more than it ever would have been."(216][217) In an interview with Howard Stern, Parton added "I couldn't believe my little country sad song could even be done like that. That was one of the greatest experiences I've ever had in my entire life." 29]
Houston told Rolling Stone in 1993, "I think Dolly Parton is a hell of a writer and a hell of a singer. I was so concerned when I sang her song how she'd feel about it, in terms of the arrangement, my licks, my flavor. When she said she was floored, that meant so much to me." 28]

Dolly Parton decided to cover "Stairway to Heaven" as a gospel song, and asked Robert Plant for permission to write a new verse for it, and Robert Plant basically said "of course you can, you're Dolly Parton" youtu.be/YhTvxVxXJLQ
