hazy haze

If you squint, my new cardigan kind of looks like it has swastikas on the back.

Emily, darling sister...help a sibling out?

Anyone else find this creepy?

A couple more fantastical things.

sisters

Quick note:

I'm a little sister, this is just what we do, no matter our age.

When i was younger i wanted to do what Richard Friend does.
Who wouldn't want to be responsible for a badass Blade Runner drawing?
The rendering, oh the rendering!


Listening to: Three Blind Wolves 'Sex Is For Losers'

stirling

I have the shameful urge to watch Sucker Punch, even though it's a misogynistic exploitfest.
Why must it be so damn pretty?

Archer, you are the boss.
