I thought I was done I lied They just posted another update on insta I can’t look away from this trainwreck
artofplay We'd like to clarify one additional detail about Kelly Clarkson's visit to our Curiosity Shop on Saturday.
During the 5 minutes she spent in the store, she inquired about our mechanical bird puppet named Molly. We explained that while Molly is permanently attached to the wall and serves as a de facto mascot for our shop, a nearly identical automaton is owned by the creator of the machines, a brilliant artist named Bliss Kolb who lives in Seattle. He told us he would be willing to part with Molly's twin for $15,000. We explained all of this to Kelly Clarkson.
We also offered to show her a different singing bird automaton, made by a traditional clockmaking shop in Germany, that she could have taken home with her that day. It costs about $2,000.
She did not stick around long enough to see it.
We've reached out to Kelly directly to try and clear the air. We really do wish her the best and hope that someday we can all laugh about this misunderstanding.

WELL NOW I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE They have a post on their insta from Sept about the stupid bird that says it isn’t for sale, but it apparently has a price tag next to it? I’m over it I no longer care These are rich people problems

"Cool, cool. Sure, it wasn't for sale. That's the narrative Art of Play is gonna go with so the
whole conversation we had when I asked you if it was for sale whilst pointing to the price tag hanging on the wall with the title Singing Bird didn't happen as you elevator eyed me saying in a condescending tone "yes, it's for sale but it costs 15,000 dollars so if you'd like me to find something comparable for you I can." That all never happened and now it's not for sale. Okay, cool. So you're not only rude, you're also a liar. Got it And by the way, I obviously support small businesses because | was literally at a small business trying to purchase things. I love small businesses and know they are important and I always support them, but you don't get a free pass to treat people less than in your store just because you are a small business. It's not that hard to be kind. I never blast people but you my friend were an exception.
Your store is really cool.
Unfortunately, you aren't."

Sometimes grief is a hatchet Sometimes you have to let it swing
Sometimes
Grief is a Hatchet

"Grief is love with nowhere else to go" is a concept
that doesn't touch on complex relationships, on fractured love.

I find the saying chisels away hurt and anger and the human wringing wrenching of grief, as though to smooth it all away under the guise of love.

It forgives the griever. It reassures, says oh you misunderstand yourself, that's just love. There there.

But what about when it isn't just love.
What about when the grief is rage.
What about when the grief consumes not just you,
but your family.

What about when the grief shatters everyone differently and you skitter-scatter away from each other like fingers flinching from fire.

If that is just love, I am not fond of love.

Love can be a part but it cannot always be the whole.

Sometimes grief is a hatchet.

Sometimes you have to let it swing.

OVERSHARE

Tell me of an overshare
and I will instead choose to witness
a courageous soul-care
an intrinsic laying down of mask
to brave the social scare
to save the unsure, the unaware

from more pain.

Show me an overshare
and I will see the healing glare
of sunshine after the rain
the feeling of defeat
that was actually the gain.

It is a love language, a gift
and I will give it again
and again.

Please ignore the fact that my aunt put the whole message in the subject line of this email I have never heard this word in my life
Tidbit: I was clearing stuff off my tablet & one of MawMaw's letters...she wrote to PawPaw she was making ROASTENEAR & wished he was home to have some. Because she was a pretty good speller I looked up the word...it's corn on the cob. I never heard it called that before.

"Roastenear" (most commonly spelled roastnear, rosnear, or roas'n'ear) is a regional American dialect term for an ear of sweet corn or corn on the cob. YourDictionary +1

It is a blended pronunciation of the phrase "roasting ear," a traditional term used primarily in Appalachia, the American South, and parts of the Midwest. Merriam-Webster 
Origins and Usage
• The Etymology: Historically, farmers used the term "roasting ears" to describe young, tender sweet corn that was harvested while the kernels were still soft and "milky" - making them perfect for human consumption. This distinguished them from field corn, which was left to dry and harden to feed livestock or grind into cornmeal. Over centuries of spoken tradition, the words naturally smashed together into "roastnear". -Facebook +3

As someone who struggles with body positivity, something about this is quite lovely From Say The Thing by Kami Orange
I once posed nude for a local art class who advertised for figure drawing models. I'd never been naked in what felt like public before and was a little nervous about being able to hold still for the length of time they requested.

Settled comfortably on a divan, I listened to music and the soft scrape of pencils on canvas for 30 min-utes. At the first break, I walked around to see how the drawings were progressing.

One artist remarked, "I love drawing bodies like yours! They're so interesting! You're art!" as he gestured to the shadows and highlights on my fat rolls that he'd sketched.

As I sat for the next 30 minutes, nude in a room full of people looking intently at my body, I considered what he'd said. I'd previously tried the body positivity technique of declaring to myself, "My body is beautiful!" but it felt too far from my current belief of "My body is a problem."

The idea that my body is interesting? That I'm art?
My body is art?

That was the bridge I needed! After that day, I've used "my body is art" as a mantra whenever I feel less than stellar about my lumps, bumps, moles, acne, and stray hairs.

Art doesn't have to be pretty or perfect. It can be grotesque or boring or maddening. As long as it makes you feel an emotion, it's art. And that's my body. I am art.

A memorial service honoring Pam Fortner's life will be held on Sept. 16 at Omni Royal New Orleans, followed by a second-line to Tropical Isle at 721 Bourbon Street, where there will be a reception, the bar announced on social media.
Pam Fortner's love for New Orleans nightlife never faded, even as she grew older. In the last four months of her life, she could frequently be found at Tropical Isle, where she'd greet customers, buy them drinks and listen to live music. Often, her nephew said, she'd get a Hand Grenade herself.
