only one who mines her own vulnerability. She’s the only one who makes it into a performance. And there’s something radical in acknowledging that feminine vulnerability as a performative, as something fake we are taught to expect and to mimic. That can be our superpower. We can be strong in ways men never will be because we face bullshit they will never have to face. That’s not justice, but it is power. It is strength. It’s control.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://fuckyeahblackwidow.tumblr.com/post/23280543974/control-or-do-you-really-think-im-pretty">this super great essay about black widow and feminism</a> (via <a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://eucatastrophia.tumblr.com/">eucatastrophia</a>)</em>http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53354379412http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53354379412Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:28:06 -0400me: *not religious*<br /> me: oh my god<br /> me: praise the lord<br /> me: thank god<br /> me: oh dear lord<br /> me: jesus christ<br /> me: good godhttp://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53350513704http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53350513704Wed, 19 Jun 2013 06:33:25 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mbf97xHZFT1qe31lco1_r2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mbf97xHZFT1qe31lco2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mbf97xHZFT1qe31lco3_r1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mbf97xHZFT1qe31lco4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><blockquote> <p><a href="http://mungothomson.com/">Mungo Thomson</a> - <em>Negative Space</em> (2006)</p> </blockquote>http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53348621638http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53348621638Wed, 19 Jun 2013 05:30:24 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/3819ff359581edc5f87bf7ebd1765fab/tumblr_moi5w4a9kK1s3j33ro1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://karldavies.tumblr.com/post/53136504820/silhouette-photogram" class="tumblr_blog">karldavies</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>Silhouette & Photogram</p></blockquote>http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53348182474http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53348182474Wed, 19 Jun 2013 05:15:41 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/4c652bd18b96bcaca90d14d49472b504/tumblr_mo430qJRjm1qbkx0lo1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/f585d0b88dfc797130a71ddffb908b48/tumblr_mo430qJRjm1qbkx0lo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/cfdda0240646bc01ab16e2e3bf56ffca/tumblr_mo430qJRjm1qbkx0lo3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><blockquote> <p>Stick Insects by <a href="http://www.mymodernmet.com/profiles/blogs/kyle-bean-stick-insects">Kyle Bean</a> </p> </blockquote>http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53347912461http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53347912461Wed, 19 Jun 2013 05:06:34 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/90a77275d0fbe03d803862d370df5703/tumblr_mnwgmnkpi91qm86p7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://gaptoothbitch.tumblr.com/post/53313553638/donna-karan-fw-2008">gaptoothbitch</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>DONNA KARAN FW 2008</p> </blockquote>http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53347536719http://originalmeaningofalternative.tumblr.com/post/53347536719Wed, 19 Jun 2013 04:54:07 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/0a7b859ccea8d224ffac040b1dfa1a5f/tumblr_mm1evuKqw21s3ik60o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://c0ssette.tumblr.com/post/49207821088/marie-christine-de-habsbourg-lorraine-detail">c0ssette</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Marie Christine de Habsbourg Lorraine (detail) circa 1765.
