The Texas Chainsaw Massacre by Tobe Hooper (1974) Christina’s World by Andrew Wyeth (1948)

“When asked about his biggest influences on the film, Hooper surprisingly responded by saying “Christina’s World” by Andrew Wyeth. It’s a 1948 painting by the American artist which currently resides in the Museum Of Modern Art in New York. Just one glimpse at the piece below totally shows how it encapsulates the movie.” [Source]

Love goth culture but not really loving this prevalent shift into distinct gender presentation that's developed as its become accepted in society. Or the... I guess gentrification is the wrong word.

Like. You remember goths with huge ratty hair and KISS makeup and men in heels and corsets and women in huge shapeless sweaters till you couldn't tell who was under what? Remember when the clothes were hand-shredded from the thrift store for five dollars and some spit?

My first black lipstick was eyeliner. What's this Women Get Crop Tops Only For $60 crap. What's this Being Goth Too Expensive shit. Girl draw ur nails on with sharpie and embrace damnation wtfff

There is nothing that brings me more genuine joy than a person who has been deeply hurt by people and actively chose to continue to be soft and caring.

There is nothing more powerful in my eyes than someone who has looked cycles of abuse and bitterness in the face and chose to continue smiling back.

It takes so much strength to allow yourself to be soft and recklessly kind. It takes so much strength to use the hands that once blocked hits to give flowers to strangers.

I am so proud of you and your efforts do not go unnoticed.

Raise your hand if you have a very visceral understanding of why people might have gone a bit unhinged in the 1920s after living through a succession of natural, unnatural, political and man-made disasters for several years in rapid succession

Herfstig aangeharkte landart van Nikola Faller in het Kroatische Osijek. Mooi, en bovendien is het ook nog beter voor de grond dan weg blazen.
