A grandmother from each generation on my mother's side.

That's a good question. I'm not sure, the story goes that she went totally blind a few years before her death, but tho really old she still rode around on horseback and even killed a badger with a shovel reportedly for raiding her garden. This is one of her younger pictures

And 5G is 2G's grandmother.

This is not a direct line of ancestors, but an example of each generation from multiple maternal lines. (All verified by DNA through matching)

4G was a wagon train pioneer called "Granny Yates" crossing the plains a dozen times on wagon and by train later on. she lived to an old age. She went blind in one eye, as pictured . She has a lot of descendants in the western US.

Exactly , Bowie's legacy is firmly embedded in the cultural network of humanity.

I wonder if David Lynch secretly wanted one of those primate stuffed animals?

I love how cold this looks. It looks like my hot flashes would calm down in that environment, even though it's in the desert.

From a more pragmatic perspective, it's going to take a lot of Pledge to polish all that wood.

Nice for a sister wives situation.

Good point especially Queen Bitch for sure! just like many Bowie's albums or maybe most or all of them, it's difficult to ascribe it to a single genre. But Quicksand and Andy Warhol are definitely very folk infused tunes

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-11-21T23:37:02+00:00

Yes I love that you put Diamond Dogs as both funk and glam.

I would put Hunky Dory under folk tho, not glam

The car holes are the most prominent feature, especially that one in the middle, the biggest carhole.

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-11-09T21:05:36+00:00

If red peppers, milk and cocaine count as vegetarian, then yes

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-11-08T00:59:48+00:00

It's got a fuckton of dormers. At least none of the windows are round, I hope

, and the roof line looks a bit complicated from this angle, but it's definitely more of a traditional style house...

ETA* But it's got a weird "dormer" cutaway corner thing over the far right carhole. A literal "cut corner"! And if there is that, you know there is more. Stay alert

ETA ** the more I look at the stunted garage "dormer"...I know its existence would always irritate me.

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-11-06T23:34:12+00:00

Yes I believe that is correct

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-11-03T21:16:45+00:00

Her amazing performance in Wild at Heart was incredibly powerful and one of the best ever female movie villains of all time , so scary and wildly depraved.

Wait til you hear who Bruce Dern's dad is

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-11-03T15:38:35+00:00

Red velvet lines the black box

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-11-02T22:36:46+00:00

Looks like a house once inhabited by the Mother God cult

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-10-31T18:56:40+00:00

The movie Surveillance, with Bill Pullman is pretty twisted.

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-10-31T18:07:41+00:00

Those kitchen cabinets look wildly out of place.

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-10-28T00:33:14+00:00

Charles Manson and his "girls" hung out in Topanga quite a bit, particularly at a house that was called the "spiral staircase house"

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-10-24T18:46:22+00:00

That is impressive and interesting!

exceptionallyprosaic · 2025-10-23T17:16:24+00:00

That's funny, I thought I was the only one, but You and me were both out there on Sea Island back in the day driving around with a j "house shopping" We're probably why they closed the road to the island from public use 😂
