JUICE IN THE MAKING
This Tuesday looking Sunday morning, I filled my car with paint thinner. —
Reached 60 in a 25,
Humming the ballad of the cowboy killers
I hit a rock!
Or so I had thought…
When from under, came cracked turtles, told me it was all just part of the plot!
Road fell from under stripey socks, fell into strings and polkadots!
Heres where things start getting weird.
I guess I felt sort of engineered.
I’m stepping on an ant again!
It’s ants all the way up and it’s ants all the way down,
In unison they told me not to frown.
Then a jester turned the corner
With a message from the coroner
Said my mother had just passed, and left me with a
Honey don’t trust the big men : Who pick up pretty stones, Into their dusty pockets to take home
He puts it on his office desk
A paper weight for the stack of checks
Gleaming gold in all the purple
But you’ll grow complacent For at least he put you where you can be seen
And their gaze will scorch each inch of skin
Then he’ll call you metamorphic
Then applaud himself for being metaphoric
So now I’m stepping on an ant The patterns persist.
a big hand reaches forward but this time I resist.
My mother—she told me all about you.
Drink like a sailor Who hasn’t seen the shore in time.
Smoke like a soldier
Shellshocked and stuck in rhyme
And sleep like a nomad
Accounting for your crooked spine
And dance like a mad mad man!
Latte art —
Abstract tulip?
The customer put cinnamon on top and mixed away the art. (°_°)
Tulip #2
Wish it was more centered…
My mom’s screensaver
Okay, clearly I over-aerated the milk, but I laugh at this every time I see it. And bless her heart, my mother is very fond of it.
Tiny latte!!!
So cute I cried.
Tulip
It’s kind of glossy…
El gato
（╹◡╹）
did you read your tea leaves today? It said that nothing gold can ever stay —
I cannot control a thing!
The earth keeps spinning
And my hair will keep thinning
And goes down, even the jewel crowned king
The only constant that she finds in her being
Is that ponderosa tree kneeling,
but even she has a curfew
A time to go home
Even she has a mother
Waiting in the Loam
The turtle has forlorn the April harvest
Crop circles chaos without an artist
His only job was to show me the cracks in his shell
And the rest was all up to me
His only job was to show me.
Life is Strange —
How am I still alive
There’s been so many instances where I could have died but it’s a miracle because I’m still here
Life is strange life is strangeeee
I love you Ian

Best songs this week! (Objective) —
It’s a dance dance revolution baby
I melt with you - modern English
Gets my feet kickin
Also the live version is better for some reason
Girlhood- the preatures
The preachers are great.
I found this song while making my installation called ‘girlhood’
It’s a good mix of riot grl and chick rock!
Reminds me of my dear friend Bella.
She is in Boston right now and she’s kicking ass.
Black polished chrome- Jim Morrison and the doors
Great album overall, especially like this song.
I used to play it at work but Jim sometimes likes to mention his ‘cock’ so I stopped.
I love jim but in another universe I think he could’ve been Charles Manson
Teinen pushiganga- Jun togawa
What a woman!!
Jun is my favorite Japanese artist of all time.
She is chaos
She is beauty
And everything in between.
She makes a lot of commentary on Japanese idol culture
I call her ふしぎちゃん
Rusty Lake —
One of my favorite teams of artists
Rusty lake is a game production team that makes escape room-like mobile games. It’s almost a dis service to call it an escape room because the amount of world-building, character development, and visuals that go into it are amazing. I’ve been playing rusty lake games since I was slacking off in middle school and I still find myself playing today.
Most of their games are free but a select few do cost money. Now, I’m a broke girly but I will immediately pay for anything they put out. No, I do not need to buy dinner tonight, there are things that need to be done— rooms that I need to escape.
I also want to mention the visuals are eerily cartoonish and the soundtrack is amazinggg. I would love to meet the team someday. This production has influenced my art and life in many ways and I want to appreciate them for that.
Latte Rosetta —
I’m gonna get it someday
Latte art was more contemporary than I thought. I believe it was invented sometime in the 80s or 90s.
I would go find my textbook but I’m not a big textbook girly.
I can do hearts and tulips but the Rosetta always kicks my ass.
So so difficult.
The fishtail… how???
OH HEY, FOR BEST VIEWING, YOU'LL NEED TO TURN YOUR PHONE
