No one:
Me: Remember the short-lived 2009 NBC drama, KINGS — a retelling of David & Goliath but in an alternate reality where the United States is a monarchy and it’s ruled by a king played by Ian McShane but also starred a young Sebastian Stan as his closeted prince son???
Cities having fights with each other is so silly. I love my hometown of Boston, but I also love New York City, Chicago, and various other places.

Nothing added to this golden gown, it needed no beads or sequins, no embroidery or ruffles or pleats. It is simply a column of bias cut cloth gleaming from high neck to toe, mid #1930s @KSUMuseum #fashionhistory
ALT Long gold bias cut dress, sleeveless with a high neckline. There is a horizontal seam at the waist but otherwise it is plain

The red stripe bisecting the centre of Elizabeth Hawes’s late #1930s evening gown runs like a flicker of flame between the shaded green panels. Hawes was a master of colour selection, bringing unlikely hues together @RISDMuseum #fashionhistory

“Being rebellious and black, a nonconformist, being cool and hip and angry and sophisticated and ultra clean, whatever else you want to call it—I was all those things and more.” --Miles Davis
The turn to exquisitely styled casual dress in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s revolutionized fashion. Black designers and wearers were at the center of redefining how people dress and show up—as themselves—to work and play. Resisting authoritative norms of dress, they donned khaki, knitted cardigans, tracksuits, and denim, which came to manifest the art of being unbothered and dexterous.

One of the reasons I miss the Hollywood Arclight is because in The Before I used to be able to see movies by myself at 8:30 AM on a Saturday with a breakfast sandwich from the Jack in the Box across the street hidden in the bottom of my purse.
People who were raised on the original Berenstain Bears know about the movie book where they took snacks into the theater.
A friend is dealing with the recent passing of her mother and needs help properly putting her to rest.
If you have anything you can give, that would be greatly appreciated. gofundme.com/f/help-miranda-…
