I'm very much in the "anti-car culture" camp and find cars to be one of the worst aspects of living in any city (especially in Philly in the summer). It seems early cartoonists often depicted cars as machines of death around their general introduction into our shared public spaces. (I've amassed a rather large collection of these anti-car cartoons, this one from Punch being just one example.) Here's some car facts from a recent study from the Journal of Transport Geography: 1) 1 in 34 deaths are caused by cars and automobility with 1,670,000 deaths per year 2) Cars and automobility have killed 60–80 million people since their invention

I’ve been looking at photos and paintings of Ancient Greek and Roman dresses for weeks, preparing to make several chitons and accessories for my SWFF persona, and I came across this photo from Edward Linley Sambourne, taken in 1896. I didn’t find her name but I do find her entirely fascinating. Big “fuck you” energy. She looks a little deranged; wild hair, clothes disheveled, a touch of menace, and utter languid comfort in her pose. She looks like she’d kick your ass and she knows all the best dirty limericks too. Whoever you are lady; I like your swagger.
