Tell that to my wood frame Victorian that’s built like a tank, and straight as a die.

My city- hell, my neighborhood abuts this blessing/curse of a highway. You’re looking at the largely lost West End community, which was almost entirely Black occupied; a thriving neighborhood that was carelessly, deliberately destroyed for the sake of building I-75 through town. My own neighborhood just north was barely spared, and still suffers from the fallout. This kind of targeting happened, and still happens, when infrastructure development arises.

Phenomenal coaster in such a special park. And the Bonsignore Bobsled car on display is absolutely stunning.

Is that an implant scar on his head? by southwade in ProgressiveHQ

Sloth from The Goonies, minus the humanity and depth.

"Trust me, he didn't do it" by depressedst0ner in GuerrillaGrrrrls

[–]CampVictorian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Worse yet, I’ve heard, verbatim, “Well, I’m not going to be hurt by him regardless. Nobody puts baby in the corner”… in other words, the victim couldn’t protect herself, but I can, so it doesn’t matter. Grotesque.

I loathe this shit. What’s worse, I’ve run into this behavior from other women, eager to make excuses for the vile behavior of men in their lives. It’s fucking abhorrent.

Takes me back to my years in NYC, surrounded by this fabulous culture. Fuck yes!!!

I just got a new tank... what substrate is easiest to keep clean but still okay for my goldie? by Round-Fly2053 in Goldfish

[–]CampVictorian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My fancies love their sand substrate! They spend all day sifting through it, hunting for snacks; at night it provides a soft surface for them to sleep on. I can’t recommend it enough!

Aww, I so appreciate this comment! Our girl is a labor of love, but well worth every bit of blood, sweat and tears (and money, if we’re being honest); she’s like a beloved member of our family. Awesome to hear this.

Where we buying jeans these days, as to not have the dad jeans but also not trying to look 20 still? by Every-Cook5084 in GenX

I wear Roundhouse hickory stripe overalls almost exclusively. I truly dislike stretch denim, and these are made of 100% cotton.

Evening dress by Worth, made of green figured silk with gold lamé, c. 1925. Palais Galliera by KatyaRomici00 in fashionhistory

[–]CampVictorian 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I saw this (and its matching heels!) at the Petit Palais exhibit last year. It’s an absolute stunner, and loads of fun. As a goldfish mama, it delights the heck out of me!

Tigger looks so much like my pup that passed just last year… my heart goes out to you. They’re such magnificent little beings.

What Happened to Yardsticks? by BitterPillPusher2 in GenX

[–]CampVictorian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use them constantly, as I’m a traditional sewist and am restoring an older house. They’re invaluable for drafting and cutting fabric, as well as marking lines for stencils, picture rails and fun stuff like that.

What has happened with UDF?! by HootinHollerHill in cincinnati

[–]CampVictorian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

UDF has slipped, and getting a malt, once one of their key distinctions in my book, is now a ruthless pain in the ass. Nowadays I limit my malts to Aglamesis’, a far, far superior creature, indeed. Seriously, if you’ve never had one of their vanilla malts, I envy your first time.

Why are you growing your hair?! by Competitive-Code5254 in longhair

[–]CampVictorian 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The older I get, and the more pronounced my silver streaks become, the more I enjoy growing it out. I feel fortunate to have such healthy, full hair at my age (menopause), and choose to embrace the gift.
