one of my forever favs have read nothing like it / punky techno feminist dystopian
“kitchen-sink realism, told from the perspective of the one stuck doing the dishes.”
explores relationships / gender / desire / detachment / sucker punch pop song / wildly clever n devastatingly prophetic
Alien Daughters Walk Into The Sun - Jackie Wang
“An almanac of extreme girlhood”
abolition/underground/biking across countries/accidentally falling into success
Not so much a collection of short stories but diary entries, tumblr posts, zine archives, “essays“, poems
Contents titles are: The Hard-Femme years / The Punk House Years/The Desert Years/The Getting-My-Shit-Together-Years/
I also remember enjoying Jesus’ Son by Denis Johnson!

idk how i came across this in my daily wikipedia surfs, but something about this painting just amuses me so much.
my first impression was this looks fairly modern in a way, possibly because of the composition and how she made her features so light and bouncy. it oddly made me think of disney when i looked for longer. then i see it was made in 1909 😂
this painting can transcend times and i wouldn’t truly know when it was made unless i looked more closely at the objects around the subject. but even that can be a stretch as vintage items can be popular amongst anyone and they can just have their vanity setup look like this.
i tried looking for photographs of her online but alas nothing came up with certainty.

when you’re bored, ever just get the urge to take a walk, do yoga, or work out in some other way?
