Study Break

Jessica and I have an exam today in our class on Political Philosophy...but instead of spending yesterday studying as intended...we played dress-up and took photos in my front yard. Vanity as self-care. Vanity as time-wasting. Vanity 4ever.
Jessica is wearing my dress! From Topshop. The faux fur is thrifted, but the brand is George which makes me think it's originally from Walmart? Amazing..
 My jacket is thrifted... it was part of a rad pant suit. The dress is Topshop. The socks from F21.



The necklace with the limbs is from Mexico...my sister got it when she was there last last summer! The other necklace (choker) is my mom's.
 
My shoes are from Solestruck! (Jeffrey Campbell Coltranes)

on sex work

I'd like to first point out that these are just my opinions, and that they are coming from a place of solidarity and not of experience. I am not trying to speak for sex-workers - I am only trying to start a conversation! I think it's necessary to actively think about these things in order to make any real shift in consciousness. Sex Work is Real Work We are constantly bombarded with the message that sex workers are troubled. Watching day-time television I have witnessed Dr. Phil repeatedly demonize sex work and those who participate in it. It’s dirty, and dangerous; they must have suffered as a child or lacked a fatherly figure. The two-dimensional stereotype attached to sex-work is ignorant and perpetuates a culture of violence against innocent people who are just doing their job (which there is and likely always will be a market for, I might add). There may be risks that come with a line of work which often requires secrecy and vulnerability (to some extent), but ...

half a year later

Oops, I didn't post for half a year. Turns out doing a PhD is a lot of work! It's summer now, though, so that excuse doesn't work. I've fallen behind on almost all of my internet responsibilities - except for instagram, which I use more than anything else at the moment. Only a month and a half left of summer then I dive back into school. Trying to enjoy the time I have right now, just existing in montreal, learning french and seeing friends and spending all my money on food. Here's what you may have missed from the past 6 months:  Butterball had surgery on his entropion! Thank you to everyone who donated to help us afford this surgery for him. He is so so much happier now. All healed up!  My brother and my niece (not his daughter, my other brother's daughter lol) xoxo
