ain’t no party like a Gatsby party because a Gatsby party don’t stop until at least two people are dead and everyone is disillusioned with the jazz age as a whole

I was today years old when i found out that i was allowed time off to vote. Something no boss has ever told me.
Reblogging now but I’m also scheduling this to post again at the end of October, when folks may need a reminder that they may have right to time off work to vote.

So I’ve been re-doing my coffee table, because the decoupage of tea-stained paperback pages was starting to show its age. I’ve been working on it for a while, and was committed not to showing anyone until I was finished. Still, with my mother coming over I had press pause, and…actually? it looks pretty good. Weird, because there’s a pure white box in the middle of my apartment! But still…not bad.
…guess how I did the bas relief vines? HOT GLUE GUN, it took me two weeks.

cant stop thinking abt ursula k. le guin’s essay abt the carrier bag theory….. she’s like, maybe the first human tool was not a weapon, but rather something that holds, a bag, a pouch, a vessel, something for gathering and storing and sharing. let’s shift the narrative of humanity from that of violence to that of safekeeping. and i’m like
and THEN she’s like, a novel is also a carrier bag. there’s the Hero’s story, sure, but there’s room enough in fiction for every experience, for every little thing, and it’s that other story, the life story, that she seeks……. o|-<
*slaps novel on the hood* this bad boy can fit so many facets of human experience in it
The first link’s broken so here’s another one
one of the first plants we ever started growing on purpose, the bottle gourd, was grown exclusively because it could be filled with water or other things and carried. pottery is actually older than domesticated gourds, and it’s likely that baskets are even older than that, but it’s just really nuts to me that the early neolithic farmers devoted entire fields just to growing not food but completely inedible bottles. and then those people took their bottles with them everywhere, including when they left Africa, and today they are on every continent. and we don’t even really use them anymore, but we still grow them just for decoration, because they’re shaped like something we carried for thousands of years and we cannot put them down.
I really like bottle gourds
