I love my repression 🌋 #MyRepression
Girl go off
If I walk into a Subway and ask them to make me a grilled cheese, do you think they’d do it?
Try phrasing it like “American cheese on six-inch Italian bread, toasted”
Good news:
Every time I think this post has died, someone brings it back and I am forced to relive possibly the worst sandwich I’ve ever eaten
Honoured to have received some wonderful results from this year’s @greatwalksmag Wilderness Photographer of the Year competition, including a win for ‘Creatures in the Shadows’ (photo 1)
swamp puppies used some reference photos to sketch them and get familiar with these cool animals (my croc hype is just getting started)
daily affirmations
- days are not real.
- days are only a cartographic representation of time.
- should the sun not rise, should the earth cease to spin, time would still march inexorably on.
- calendars were invented to raise money with risqué photoshoots. they are not prisons.
- I can choose what day I am going to have today.
- It's virtuous and morally correct to have my thirsty thursday while everyone else is having monday morning.
- no law of god or man can stop me.
tumblr media criticism
Most people who did my list challenge only saw 4 movies. Very few have broken 10. No one has gotten higher than 43 (so far).
I've had a great time seeing everyone's responses and even hearing about movies I haven't seen before. If you're curious about any of the films on my list, I thought I'd put together a guide.
I like arthouse films: Jeanne Dielman, Fellini's Casanova, Fellini's Satyricon, Sleeping Beauty, Thirty-Two Short Films About Glenn Gould, Rhinoceros Eyes, Closet Land, Gummo
I like experimental films that don't have a traditional plot or character development, I'm not afraid of filmmakers doing weird shit with the medium: Pink Narcissus, Belladona of Sadness, Brand Upon the Brain!
I like classic old horror movies: Eyes Without A Face, Onibaba, The Bad Seed
I like old(er) horror movies: Cube, The Entity, The Serpent and the Rainbow, Don't Look Now, The Collector
I like schlocky so bad it's good horror plus North Korean propaganda: Pulgasari
I'm not scared of exploitation movies and want to see a movie that A Serbian Film was trying to be: Salo, Cannibal Holocaust
I like dark fairy tale fantasy: The Company of Wolves, Cronos, The City of Lost Children, The Beast
I liked Silence of the Lambs: The Collector, Memories of Murder
I like old period dramas: Black Narcissus, The Beguiled, Fitzcarraldo, This Sporting Life
What about a period drama that's a musical? And set in the Australian outback: One Night The Moon
I like weird movies that are sexually explicit: Otto or Up With Dead People, Through the Looking Glass, Caligula
I like queer documentaries: Paris Is Burning, Southern Comfort
Is there a queer movie that's meant for children?: Benjamin Dove
I like romantic movies: Eat Drink Man Woman, 3-Iron, Monsoon Wedding
I like movies with psychosexual tension and toxic relationships: The Piano Teacher, Lust Caution, The Monk
I like Guy Ritchie films: Sexy Beast
I like gritty crime drama/Mads Mikkelsen: Pusher, The Yellow Sea, Man Bites Dog, The Boondock Saints, A Better Tomorrow
I like sports movies that make your heart soar and have deeper thematic backdrops than just 'my team won': Offside
I want to watch a Best Picture Oscar worthy film that didn't get that attention because it's not in English: Where is My Friend's House, Close Up, Spring Summer Fall Winter and Spring
I want to see a movie that is 'dead dove' (please please check the synopsis and all the warnings first): Happiness
I want some of that but less taboo, and more of a dark and funny coming of age with a heartbreaking performance from a young Heather Matarazzo: Welcome to the Dollhouse
I want to see the Muppets if it was an NC-17 film (directed by Peter Jackson): Meet the Feebles
I like trains and autism: The Station Agent
I like weird old scifi movies: Fantastic Planet, The Man Who Fell To Earth, Beyond the Black Rainbow
I liked/did not like Annihilation: Stalker
I liked Weekend At Bernies but it could have been Irish and more wholesome: Waking Ned Devine
I want to see Samuel L. Jackson stick a match in his mouth and make his teeth light up like a jack-o-lantern: The Caveman's Valentine
I liked Watership Down and being traumatized as a child: The Plague Dogs
Why did everyone have to watch Gattaca in bio class?
Can you explain 'Rock and Rule'? Not really.
Can you explain 'Brazil'? Again....not so much. It's one of the best movies on the list though.
You caaaaan't leave out the best part

The plum you're going to eat next summer
by Gayle Brandeis
The plum you’re going to eat next summer doesn’t exist yet; its potential lives inside a tree you’ll never see in an orchard you’ll never see, will be touched by a certain number of water droplets before it reaches you, by certain angles of light, by a finite amount of bugs and dust motes and hands you’ll never know. The plum you are going to eat next summer will gather sugar, gather mass, will harden at its center so it can soften toward your mouth. The plum you’re going to eat next summer doesn’t know you exist. The plum you are going to eat next summer is growing just for you.
