Love and Pockets Jill "xtingu" Knapp 6/7 '19

I hate that women's clothes don't have useful pockets, especially being an anti-purse-ite (I just hate holding stuff or worrying about nouns).

I am, however, a huge fan of infinity scarves (it's like a regular scarf, but they sew the ends together so it's a big loop) and I pretty much wear 'em on any day below 80 degrees. And holycraaaap, you can get 'em with pockets! Eeeee! And I just found out about a nifty, nerdy, queer-owned Etsy shop based in Philly who makes 'em by hand, for slightly less than you'd pay for a shitty one from China on Amazon. And she'll even make custom-ones!

Speaking of queer-owned bidnesses in Philly, BillyPenn.com curated a list you can consider supporting this Pride month and fer always. (And holy balls, why have we not arranged a PhilaDel Field Trip to Henri David's Halloween?!)

TAKE MY MONEY!

For a change, I'm going to try worrying about adverbs, instead.

I love those scarves but not the colors.

I flipped to the "custom" order functionality and it looks like she welcomes a dialogue about the fabric.

Michele Grant

Of course it’s all academic at this point, since wrapping anything against my neck instantly induces a hot flash.

Anne Mollo

Yeah, not so much with the cats and plaid.

I love trawling through funky buildings. I could study this place like a museum.

Halloween overwhelms me. it's such a cool shop, but it's like jewelry overload in there. (i can't believe i'm even saying that!)

Y'know, looking at it, I kinda thought for a moment "Hmmm... I wonder if this'd be too much after 30 minutes?" Like, after Rare Brooch #937 you're like "Yeah, rare brooch, yup, whatever, great, ok."

There’s only one way to find out! I demand Halloween overload followed by South Street yums.

Lindsay Harris Friel

make it so!!!

FOR SCIENCE! (And for awesomes!)

When you go to Lush, if you get smell overload, they give you a little cup of coffee grounds to sniff so you get a palate cleanser and can fully appreciate the subtle nuances of all their products.

(this doesn't help if you can't breathe)

What do you suppose this stuff uses as a palate cleanser? probably 2 minutes of QVC.

I'm in! FWIW: I combat jewelry overload by only being interested in jewelry consisting of legged reptiles. Bonus if articulated.

I imagine if anyplace is gonna have what you're looking for, it's gonna be this place!
