Fascinating!

have you yet had the cognitive dissonance that comes with learning that Jon Pertwee was an actual spy in WWII or have you not yet had that pleasure

i HAVE and it's so funny - imagine being a real life British spy and, posthumously, your most recognized achievement is playing a gay science magician on children's television

it's what he would have wanted

Don’t be the reason someone feels insecure. Be the reason someone feels seen, heard, and supported.

"You can't be a lurker on tumblr." Yes, you absolutely can. I've been quietly reblogging things since 2014 and I haven't interacted with anyone in years.

Do you like poems?

yes! my favorites are The Tiger and the unnamed werewolf fridge poem

absolutely gutted that I’ll never get to live in an art nouveau style house!!

Inside the Perfume Wardrobe of…: Cher

Singer, actress, model, icon. Cher burst onto the Mod 1960s scene, and has memorized us ever since with her strong voice, poignant performance in Moonstruck (1987), sequin encrusted Bob Mackie gowns, and firecracker attitude.

- Ritz by Charles of the Ritz and Vanilia by L’Artisan Parfumeur When asked on Letterman in 1986 what perfume she was wearing, Cher states “It’s two together. One’s real cheap, it’s called Ritz and it’s like Tabu, good girls don’t wear it. And the other one’s real expensive, called Vanilia.” David Letterman replies, “The end result is quite effective.” They go on to discuss how she has turned down appearing on the show for four years, “Because you thought I was a-”, Letterman starts to say. Cher cuts in and finishes the sentence: “An asshole.” The audience boos.

- Uninhibited by Cher (1988) and Cher Eau de Couture by Cher (2019) Cher went on to create two fragrances: Uninhibited in 1988, and more recently, Cher Eau de Couture. Cher says the fragrance “makes you want to hold yourself,” because of the juice’s warm, gourmand blend.

my internal monologue when Ancient Egypt is mentioned: [don't talk about imhotep and the first codified diagnostic manual. the fact you know so much about it is deeply weird and nobody cares about medicine that much]
