Me about multiple women: this is the most beautiful woman in the world

Came across this art installation, Liza Lou's Kitchen, at the Whitney Museum of American Art, NYC. It's a kitchen made of tiny glass beads, that artist Liza Lou did, taking 5 yrs. to complete, from 1991 - 1996.

My favorite part is the sink.

Details of a recipe book.

All the details in tiny glass beads.

Love the pie in the oven.

Love this so much.

No wonder it took 5 yrs.

I bet raising your arm and summoning a weapon for you to grasp feels good as fuck

the horrors persist but so do books, art, hot chocolate, winter nights, the moon, the sea, the stars, sunsets, literature, libraries, cats, flowers, stories, love and the wistful feeling you get when you finally return home

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON (2022-?) 3.08 | The Treasons at Tumbleton

[starberry-cupcake]

the phantom of the opera by gaston leroux reads like an intense true crime podcast with a host super into this specific story, frankenstein by mary shelley reads like the most intense AITA reddit post you've ever seen and dracula by bram stoker reads like an unhinged discord server dedicated to calling out one creepy sus dude

this is why they're classics and they still slap, context can vary but good stories are forever

[fictionadventurer]

The very best thing about The Phantom of the Opera is that it shows us a possibly supernatural occurrence, then gives us a natural explanation that is infinitely crazier than the supernatural one would have been.

What if there was a ghost in the opera house that was killing people?

Requires you to accept the existence of ghosts, but otherwise is a straightforward story.

What if the chief contractor who built the opera house was a deformed circus freak who used his experience building palaces and torture chambers for sultans to keep building secret passageways and torture chambers in the basement when construction halted during the Franco-Prussian War, and then kept living down there working on an opera and killing and blackmailing people who crossed him and also training a pretty opera singer that he wants to marry?

There is nothing in the world that could have prepared me to expect even half of that.
