"....the backs of most modern bras are secured by a two-part elastic band joined with adjustable hooks or clasps that is remarkably similar to Clemens’s vest strap."

How does 109-year-old Alfred 'Alfie' Date keep himself busy? Apparently by knitting sweaters for endangered penguins.
Apparently, a wonderful Australian man knits sweaters to help injured penguins. How sweet is that?
lots of rurouni kenshin and sticky glue fingers later, I bound a couple drawing notebooks!
I used Liberty of London’s Tana Lawn fabrics from Purl Soho in Manhattan on 7 of the books (definitely worth the splurge). The other two were a plain hemp fabric, also from Purl Soho.
this was primarily done to downsize my current collection of drawing papers, but I am looking to sell a few of them as well!
Look forward to a potential store link popping up soon, otherwise, I will be selling them at Derby City Comic Con or through PayPal
Someone enjoys my knitting even more than I do.

Today at the gym
There was a representative for a new protein product
“Hey would you like to try our new product?” “Sorry, I’m vegan, do you guys do any vegan products?” “You’re vegan?” *pause* “Yeah…” “I thought vegans were meant to be skinny”

so Johnny Depp has been exposed by his wife as an abuser & she has a restraining order against him. I’m gonna say this once and once only, people: I’m straight out of patience for abuse apologists who are already coming out of the woodwork defending him. what is wrong with you? you’re halfway up his ass because he was once cute or something, meanwhile you’ve sent a message to abusers everywhere once again that it’s ok for them to remain powerful, idolized, loved influences in the spotlight. you’ve sent a message to abuse survivors everywhere that they are dishonest, untrustworthy fakes who deserve no justice.
seriously, stop worshiping the ground these men walk on, many of them are trash long before they’re called on abuse but their fanbase is willing to stay silent the whole time. Depp has redfaced and appropriated indigenous regalia and imagery and played an indigenous character as well as defended Roman Polanski, a convicted child rapist. you should not have supported him through that, and you should not support him now, when his wife has come forward.
do not hesitate to denounce Johnny Depp. do not hesitate to denounce every other powerful man who is exposed as an abuser. do not mourn the decline of their careers. do not feel you have to revere them or continue to uphold them as icons. do not continue to support them having a platform of influence. stand with abuse survivors.
I stand with survivors.
I made a dinosaur. It lives on my coffee table and is in need of a suitable name.

May 23, 1533: King Henry VIII’s Marriage to Katharine of Aragon is Annulled
On the morning of May 23, in 1533, Archbishop Thomas Cranmer declared that Henry VIII’s marriage to Katharine of Aragon had been annulled. This declaration emphasized the ruling made in earlier that year in March by Convocation, where it was determined that Henry VIII and Katharine of Aragon’s marriage was contrary to Biblical law, and that a papal dispensation should never have been granted allowing the two to marry back in 1509. However, after Cranmer was consecrated as Archbishop of Canterbury, one of his first acts was to open a special trial at Dunstable Priory in Bedfordshire to look into the annulment proceedings. He wanted everything to be done as thoroughly as possible, so that no one could question the validity of Henry’s marriage to Anne Boleyn. Once the court ruled on the invalidity of Henry’s marriage to Katharine, Cranmer immediately sent a message to Henry letting him know that he had pronounced “sentence to your great and weighty matter.” This also paved the way for Anne Boleyn’s coronation, which was set to take place on June 1st at Westminster Abbey. The following excerpt describes the events of May 23rd: “My lord of Canterbury gave sentence this day at 11 o’clock* in the great cause of matrimony; has declared it to be against the law of God, and has divorced the King from the noble lady Katharine. He has used himself in this matter very honorably, and all who have been sent hither on the King’s behalf have acted diligently and towardly. Sentence shall be given for the King’s second contract of matrimony before the Feast of Pentecost. The process is partly devised. 23 May.” It should be noted that Henry and Anne had already married earlier that year, but Cranmer’s ruling on the invalidity of Henry’s marriage to Katharine, as well as the annulment of their marriage, now made Henry and Anne’s marriage 100% legal and valid, although this fact would be officially declared on May 28th. It also meant that the child Anne was pregnant with would be unquestionably legitimate. One can only imagine the triumph and relief the couple felt after years of waiting and struggle. *Thomas Bedyll, in a letter to Cromwell, states that the sentence was declared at 10am, not 11am.
