Dorothy Phillips uses the new horn button vanity case on her steering wheel in 1926. It's great for make-up on the road when you're late to the set.

Almost 100 years later…who still sees women putting on make-up while driving? 🤚

Because choosing a Disney hotel after randomly selecting an item was starting to be a bit difficult, I decided that I would randomly select the Disney hotel and create an outfit inspired by it. Thankfully, the first hotel had a very strong theme: Disney Explorers Lodge at Hong Kong Disneyland. Of course, I had to create an outfit worthy of such a theme.

I knew I would go with earth tones, so when I saw those earthy green shorts, I knew I had to add them to my outfit. The shirt, with its front patch pocket, also fits the explorer vibe. The main elements of the outfit selected, all I needed was now was to choose the footwear, the bag, and the other accessories.

Of course, one needs to be comfortable when exploring, so these ankle boots looked perfect. It’s not the time for a fancy handbag; this tan crossbody bag looks practical and fits with the earth tone of this outfit. You also need protection from the sun, hence the hat and sunglasses.

Finally, I decided to add the necklace because the old coin-like pendant gave such a vibe of “old thing I found on one of my digs”. It was just too perfect to ignore.

He challenged prevailing notions about sacred vs. secular and broadened the field for gospel music, bridging it with funk, pop, rock, and soul. Despite challenges to his early career and ministry, he earned many awards and made many well-received records, yet still kept his eyes on God. He’s best known for his recording of “Oh Happy Day, “ an extension of an 18th century hymn. Edwin updated it in 1967 and his worship group played it repeatedly at the Ephesian Church of God in Christ in Berkeley CA. In 1969 Hawkins took the church group and made a small budget recording of it on a custom label, with Dorothy Combs Morrison on co-lead vocals. Their modest production is lo-fi by today’s standards but—lo and behold—the track became a surprise international hit, reaching #4 in the USA, #2 in the UK, Canada, and Ireland, and #1 in France, Germany, and The Netherlands. 

Edwin’s version won a Grammy in 1970, has appeared in upwards to 20 movie soundtracks ,and has been covered countless times. It was also included on the RIAA Songs of the Century. George Harrison stated the song was a primary inspiration for “My Sweet Lord.” Here’s our modest take on it, and HB EH—thank you for making a joyful noise.

Sc!Phil wakes up in “purgatory” a white void with Phillip and Missa as ghosts.

“We were waiting for you.”

Phil tried to run for them, begging not to be left alone again, but they fade, and he wakes up.

On the grass, next to Dorothy, tear stained and very much out of it, but has an odd ice chill in his body, like ice cold.

He just lays his head on Dorothy, questioning if it was real, but, now he’s alone, again. With nobody else to talk to…but himself and the crows.

I'm finding your address as we speak you little shit

I gotta hand it to the Bridgerton (Netflix) writing team

Eloise feeling like the sibling with the most potential to come out as wlw (lots of us were feeling some Creloise vibes) & then surprising us with Frannie being the wlw of the family was great fun! Gives me the same vibes as when Once Upon a Time confirmed Mulan's bisexuality with her unrequited love for Aurora (& maybe Phillip too) & then seemed ready to pair her off with Merida. And then, instead, we got the reveal that Ruby (Little Red Riding Hood) is bi too! And she ended up with Dorothy Gale (Wizard of Oz). True love's kiss & all lol.

Those in italics have five or more pieces of usable visual, written, or audio propaganda already. If you have any visuals like photos or videos, or if you have something to say in words, submit it to this blog before round one begins on June 25th!

If you don't see a name you submitted here, it's because most or all of their career was as a child/they were too young for the cutoff, their career was almost entirely after 1979, or music was something they only dabbled in and are hardly known for. There are quite a few ladies on the list whose primary career wasn't "recording artist" or "live musician," but released several albums or were in musical theater, so they've been accepted.

HELLO! you're one of my fave lamen writers and fave fic writers EVER and I wanted to ask if you would recommend any books/authors? sending love and deep gratitude for the lamen AGENT au

AW what a lovely ask, thank you anon !!! My face looked like this reading it: 🥰I hope you like the (rest of the) fic!!! And this list of some books I like:

the Lymond series really got its hooks in me this year-- I'm only through book 4 but it's made me LAUGH, it's made me GASP, it made me WEEP UNCONTROLLABLY. Dunnett is an insanely good writer I think even if or perhaps because I am so slow getting through her stuff

Also really enjoying the Peter Wimsey series right now -- I'm up to book 6 and I just love the way Dorothy Sayers writes, her turns of phrase are outstanding, Peter is such a weird little guy, the details of the setting are just incredible... what's not to love

The Locked Tomb series -- enough said. I feel like heaps of people have read or at least heard of this one. I do think it's good and I was completely blown away by book 2. I love HARROW

Random Harvest by James Hilton, sorry. It's even available on archive.org! Read for free with no account! Or read a slightly nicer version for free with an account! If this niche book from 1941 has ten fans I'm one of them, one fan it's me, no fans I'm dead. It's not perfect but I really did find this amnesia story so touching and compelling and the final pages made me cry. Go in unspoiled if possible, read this first, and then watch the 1942 film!!!

The Stars Undying by Emery Robin -- another one whose final pages just knocked me flat. "Cleopatra in space" is a hook that's both compelling and also somehow doesn't capture the expansiveness and creativity of this novel at all. Mark Antony was, as promised on my back cover, the hottest butch girl in space. I'm waiting so so hopefully for the sequel

Jasper Fforde -- a friend once called his work 'English major fever dreams' which I think is accurate. Love his worldbuilding, love his insane worlds. I actually read his Nursery Crimes books first and secretly The Big Over Easy is still my fave, but Thursday Next is probably better known / regarded and they're also such good romps. There are always so many spinning plates and somehow it all gets pulled together

Honourable mention lightning round: The Phillip Marlowe series, twisty hardboiled pulpy fun from Raymond Chandler -- the Trickster duology by Tamora Pierce was, I have to admit it, extremely formative for me -- I'm also 8 books into the Highland Guard series by Monica McCarty and they're ridiculous but very fun if you like romancelandia stuff (and super buff guys; I think every hero thus far has been the biggest meatiest slab of muscle in all Scotland) -- Ion Curtain by Anya Ow, super fun space opera which also has me pining for a sequel -- Between Silk and Cyanide, the memoir of a codemaker during WWII who comes across as a vaguely smug but very funny personification of chaos -- Frenchman's Creek by Daphne du Maurier, gorgeous descriptions and I did really enjoy the romance; this one also got made into a film in 1944. With Joan Fontaine! In glorious Technicolor! In period gowns!!!

Thank you for the ask anon!! I hope this was interesting (?) or edifying (?) or satisfactory in some sense. Sending kisses!!
