Pages from a diary shared between Robert Smith and Lydia Lunch, circa 1980-1981.

Update: Read this excerpt from a biography on the Cure to learn more about the time Lydia Lunch opened for them, whence this “beautiful little funeral book” was created:

Help me find this sweater?

Hello! I'm not sure if you'll be able to help, but I've been searching for a very specific sweater or something very similar to it that Robert Smith was wearing. I believe the picture was taken in the 80s, possibly the early 90s. From what I gathered, the style of sweater pictured is called a batwing sleeve. Do you think you can help me find this?

i keep thinking about robert smith in his big boy age of 60+ and the comments i sometimes see about him (not here, but on youtube and ig) and our perception of older people and aging and alternative people in general.

i think there's this really pervasive idea of aging gracefully and how more alternative looking people don't fit that idea. robert smith is older now, not young and skinny, but he still does the iconic hair and makeup. and some people don't like that. that same style that he has held most of his career.

perhaps people have an easier time with the idea of young people being alternative, looking countercultural, raging against the machine. but when you get older you're supposed to "age gracefully" (= conform to society's expectations of older people). somehow it's not graceful to be yourself, be different or alternative. why don't we let old people to have the same self expression we applaud them for when they're younger? (i know there have always been people provoked by his look, but imagine being mad about a man in makeup in 2024)

robert smith is wonderful as he is, wrinkles and messy makeup and grey bird's nest and all.

Currently fixated on Saint Joan d'Arc and my complex connection and resemblance of her. Please ask me about it if you want!

I got to see the Cathedral of Notre-Dame a few days ago, and took pictures of her statue there :S

I just watched @strange-aeons 's new YouTube video on clown husbandry and that got me interested.

I've got one question: What breed of clown would Laughing Jack be? Is he a circus or something else? His darker colors remind me of a pierrot, but I know that would be false because he was once colorful.
