dragonlady7: self-portrait but it's mostly the DSLR in my hands in the mirror (Default)

Everyone I know is fine, and that’s sort of the problem– Buffalo is a very segregated city, and the attacker had researched to find the Blackest area code in the city, which is served by only one grocery store, which is understaffed so there are always long lines to check out, and so he knew he had a bunch of sitting ducks guaranteed right there for his mowing-down pleasure. There was nothing mentally ill or unpremeditated about it, he drove in from halfway across the state expressly to do this thing he’d done several practice runs for and he absolutely knew he could achieve.

And no one I know was hurt, because I live in an almost entirely white zipcode, and work in another almost entirely white zipcode, and the bus lines don’t even come directly to my zipcode from that one.

Which is now served by zero grocery stores.

Thank you for asking <3 <3 <3 (Your picture was not posted)

hey! Do you want to test the results of weird historical recipes? Stuff like lip balm from 1711 that could arguably smell like gay pirates? Click here and fill out this google form https://href.li/?https://forms.gle/g4ABLErSYHHhYy9R9!

At the moment I need several people to try out variations of my recently attempted gay-pirate lip balm, which look like these: [image: Photograph of three small, quarter-sized containers of handmade lip balm. Each has what looks to be an ornamented parchment-paper label affixed to their lids; in an old type font the text on the label reads: "May 2022 - ARCANA CURIOSA 278 - A Pomatum for the Lips - coconut oil variant".]

–and you can read about me making them here. https://triflesandparsnips.tumblr.com/post/683735554740961280/triflesandparsnips-triflesandparsnips-because

If you fill out the form above, I’ll add you to the list of people I contact about testing these and sending me feedback. The cost will be just whatever the shipping ends up being, along with the mortifying ordeal of being known.

The form ALSO includes the opportunity for you to tell me the sorts of things you’re interested in and might like to be a tester for in future (all potential stuff under my Historically Inaccurate Shop label, because this is exactly the sort of fun shit I started it for.) Either which way, though, this isn’t a “yes please!” list but just a “keep me in mind” list – you’re not on the hook for anything until I contact you, give you the option, and you okay the shipping cost. SIGN UP AND GET WEIRD STUFF, HOORAY (Your picture was not posted)
