Hello my name is Sarah and I’m a photographer whose only subject is herself. I do my own modeling, makeup, and hair, and make my own sets, props, and costumes by hand. Here are some of my favorite things my mind has made so far 💖

I asked Harrison Ford how ultimate Nazi puncher Indiana Jones would feel about the debate over punching Nazis in real life today. “He’d push 'em out of the way to get in the first punch. As well he should."

me reading discourse about how I hate my grandma despite writing an entire thread about how awesome and multi-faceted she was and how meaningful it is to see so many parts of her reflected in me after learning that she not only shared my passions, but excelled at them

Basically what I’m saying is: my grandma was the original Hannah Montana.

So when my dad started volunteering at a local theater and she told him it was a waste of time, I was under the impression that it was because she didn’t take the arts seriously. But it was actually because she didn’t want his talent to be taken advantage of, like hers had been.

Broadway wasn’t her job, but her best friend was a Tony-winning director and she was his closest collaborator, though her work was largely uncredited. She’d travel to the city to work on shows, then return to being a full-time mom — which is the part of her life I was told about.

Didn’t think I’d need to clarify this but my grandma died when I was a baby, on my dad’s birthday. She was a complicated lady with a difficult, all-consuming family life, so I was always told about who she was to them: a divorced, stay-at-home mom of six equally chaotic kids.

Yes, the cashier at Walmart should be able to afford rent and groceries with their paycheck. Yes, the person with cancer and $3 in their bank account should be able to treat their cancer without going into debt.

Honestly, I should’ve known that someone who could look this cool in a candid photo would obviously have an even cooler story to match.

I grew up thinking that I couldn’t relate to her or her life at all, and only got to know her through the fog of the memories and relationships she had with the people who knew her. But I think I’m realizing that so much of what I love about myself, are the parts that mirror her.

When I say I thought she no appreciation for art, it’s because I’d always heard that she hadn’t seen the value in my dad pursuing a career in theater. But when I recently asked him what he loved most about her, he said it was how she always fostered and supported his creativity.

Just to clarify so I don’t do a disservice to my grandma: when I say she was moody, it’s because I inherited my own mental illness from her. When I say she was “just a housewife”, it’s because that’s what was demanded of women then, but not necessarily what I thought she wanted.

Same lady, by the way.
None of these skincare influencers and their anti-aging products will ever be as dedicated to defying old age as my grandma, who always swore that she would never let herself become a senior citizen and, true to her word, promptly dropped dead on the day before her 65th birthday.

“Oh your grandma worked closely with Mandy Patinkin and Liza Minnelli early in their careers. Also she was obsessed with you and held you on the day before her sudden death. I’m sure that is not cosmically linked to your lifelong love for Mandy Patinkin and Judy Garland at all.”

Like what do you mean my grandma played an integral part in giving Meryl Streep her first major acting role. What the fuck do you mean.

I spent most of my life thinking my grandma was just a moody housewife with too many kids and no appreciation for art, then this year my dad casually mentioned that she worked on Broadway and now he’ll just randomly show me videos of her at the Tony Awards for plays she worked on

Ooooh and that's why getting rid of masks with the false narrative that "covid is over" is also useful in a country that wants mass surveillance. Yall seeing how disability rights and class solidarity work together?
THREAD: The official narrative of how Luigi Mangione was apprehended doesn’t add up. Evidence suggests a deeper surveillance operation involving real-time facial recognition technology. Let’s delve into the inconsistencies and explore the implications. 🧵

Hey does anyone want to give me a small loan of approximately $20,000 to $30,000? It’s for something extremely important, I swear.
