‘We’re losing accessibility’: America says goodbye to the mass-market paperback
How I miss smoking! Although I probably looked more Bette Davis than Jacques Brel when I did!
Fun fact: the birthing figure in Rivera's mural was based on a pre-Columbian artifact of debatable authenticity that also made its way into cinematic history, inspiring the golden idol from Raiders of the Lost Ark www.nationalgeographic.com/history/hist...

"Unscrew the locks from the doors!
Unscrew the doors themselves from their jambs!
Whoever degrades another degrades me,
And whatever is done or said returns at last to me."

Cover of Sacha Coward’s Queer as Folklore. Bright yellow background, red and black title lettering, illustration of a merman/maid, fairy, unicorn hybrid.
Just finished @sachacoward.bsky.social’s excellent Queer as Folklore. Absolutely packed with fascinating ruminations on gender and sexuality and the connections LGBTQ people have with history, myths, legends and folk tales. A total delight and highly recommend. #Booksky

Edie Sedgwick, Andy Warhol superstar, biography and the true crime story of a Sedgwick imposter.

Serie "Shadows" (Sombras) de Andy Warhol, creada entre 1978 y 1979. Es una obra de 102 lienzos, de los que podemos ver unos pocos en la exposición. Modus operandi con la marca de la casa, repetición con variaciones, pero no solo sugarpop
Serigrafía fotográfica "Un solo Elvis" creada por Andy Warhol, basada en un fotograma de la película "Flaming Star ("Estrella llameante") de 1960. Hay una serie de fotos (no aquí) con "Doble Elvis" que juega con esta imagen. Dimensiones apropiadamente gigantescas para el Rey, la megaestrella, esto sí es pop
Pintura de Oxidación ('Oxidation Painting') de Andy Warhol, circa 1970 Lámina de cobre oxidada con orina. Sep. Hay algunas sobre papel que también quedan chulas, como pergaminos orientales. Esta tiene un color espectacular, regio, que contrasta guarramente con esos verdes mohecinos
Pintura de Oxidación ('Oxidation') de Andy Warhol, 1977-1978, orina y pintura de cobre oxidadas Otra de esta serie donde se lleva al límite el dripping más escatológico con soprendentes resultados orgánicos y semialeatorios

What answer do you get when you ask Google if Tidal accepts ICE ads? I get this:
David Bowie sings All the young dudes
All the young dudes (hey, dudes!)
Carry the news (where are you?)
Boogaloo dudes (stand up, come on!)
Carry the news... #Davidbowie
Somewhat cartoonlike painted rendering of a male figure at center, rousing a crowd with a noisemaker, megaphone, drums, etc.

Black and white photo of Charles Bukowski pictured with John Rechy, standing casually next to each other in what appears to be in a garage.
"Every man is afraid of being a queer. I get a little tired of it. Maybe we should all become queers and relax."

A trick I learned a long time ago, being an honest and effective ally, is make everyone question your sexuality.
