the white lighter
In less subtle language, a few of the things you might see here: coffee/barista nerdery, androgyny and gender-fucking, gender studies in general, feminist theory, sex-positive imagery, fat people, photography and art of varying medium and subject, cat-related anything as well as my own feline friend, owls, tattoos, self-portraiture, nakedness, intermittent music of the people I love, writing, books, flea markets and thrift stores, Frida Kahlo, Patti Smith, anything related to my city of Philadelphia, me attempting to be less racist, and the sporadic, enjoyable internet meme I cannot resist. But I'll try to keep that last one to a minimum.
I seek to post only items which are credited to the originator, be it fine art, photography, tattoos, or writing. If you see something uncredited, do feel free to point it out to me. Also: ask anything. Call me out if I fuck up. Give props if you feel like it. Ask questions. I like internet interaction.

So little of what I own was purchased retail, and you know, I actually am a little proud of that. Nobody else has my muumuu!

GDSP #4 is to consist of your reflection. Your image can be reflected from whatever you wish: a mirror, puddle, glass, etc. When taking the photo, look at yourself in your reflection, not at the lens. If possible, do not let the camera be seen in the reflection. This photo can be taken any time of day and your environment can be whatever suits you. The picture can be of either your face or your body, whatever you think best works with the photo and the reflective piece.
30/365 || Oh, lah-di-dah. In front of Kevin’s grandmother’s kitchen wall, or at least the slice of it that we salvaged from her house and posted it to our own wall.
I woke up at 11:57 p.m. to take this image and promptly go back to sleep. With the lights on. Who even knows. It turned out better than I thought it would, considering my eyes were closed and remained closed for most of the self-portrait process.
