The Exploits of Miss Quest

36, they pronouns, living in Minneapolis, musician, writer, dancer/aspiring aerialist, can't stop thinking about music theory. Messaging welcome but response times are unreliable. Things I like: sff, They Might Be Giants, Les Miserables, Cary Grant, Oscar Wilde, Elliott Smith, Erik Satie and literally anyone he was friends with, abstract mathematics particularly topology, and The Wicker Man (1973). The best parties have bonfires, group singing, and hugging, but two out of three ain't bad. I update this description eventually, sometimes. Don't ask how long my queue is and definitely don't ask how many unqueued drafts I have. Please ask me about the fractal rhythmic structure of Hozier songs instead.

My modest collection of vintage horror imagery is screaming along.

Does it count as 'sword in the stone' if it looks more like 'sword in the cairn'...?

Image Description: Sword in stone motif which is adorned by lavendar colored flower embroidery in an oval wood frame. The tendrils and hanging flowers trail around a braid that serves as a trellis and warous greenery is sprouting between the stones, all done with embroidery. The semi-preicus stones in different shades of green forming the stone moundare stiched down like pearls and the model sword is stuck inside in King Arthur style.

Unless clowns give you nightmares, decide for yourself whether my collection of vintage clowns is charming or terrifying.

imagine fainting goats, but they float and they're cows. also it only happens whenever they're positively delighted, like when they find an especially yummy patch of grass, they'll float away in excitement..
