I think of this every so often.
A note passed between fourth grade girls in an elementary school in Maryland in 2017.
A teacher found it, gave it to a friend who shared it on social media, and it went viral. Hillary Clinton mentioned it at an International Women's Day event.
So many MAGA accounts sharing this today, yet @grok cannot confirm even what date this event occurred, or the correct location.
This is misinformation and propaganda being promulgated rather shamelessly
2025 has ended, the year Lynch left us. But his work and life will always remain in our memory. Always in our hearts. Eternal love. David Lynch forever.
In honor of the winter solstice and the Yuletide season, a thread of art...blessings, comfort, and joy to you and yours...

From A CHRISTMAS CAROL by Charles Dickens
The Twenty-second Window. The Little Girl had spent so many Christmases ill or convalescing in bed, it had become a family tradition to decorate a tree in her room, usually by the long windows which looked out over the parkland. That year, her bed was made neatly in the morning & only slept in at night, and she was well enough to help her Aunt. Together they dressed the little spruce with all their favourites – sweet oranges studded with cloves, scarred & play-worn wooden penguins and foxes & ermines & doves from the nursery chest, a battered old train engine once owned by her father, a dozen bold flags of elven-realms, strings of dried apples from Old Fox's orchards, baubles & pom-poms & festoons of paper flowers, delicate Japanese chōchin from Liberty's, a papier-mâché model of Felix the Cat and a protective fairy queen, dressed in silver brocade & carrying a wand of gilded hazel.
Day 14: In PRACTICAL MAGIC, Aunt Franny and Aunt Jet (Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest) dress in wild vintage garb, part stylish grandma, part sexy hippie, part Victorian garden maven, all witch.
And now, after a hiatus of some months, it's time for:
A Witchy Fashions Advent Calendar Thread!
Day 1: The Wintry Whites seen in "Hare Moon" (S3, E4 of CHILLING ADVENTURES OF SABRINA).
Day 13: In CHILLING ADVENTURES OF SABRINA, Zelda Spellman (Miranda Otto) oozed impeccable style. From her Hollywood starlet hair to her signature cigarette holder, and her vintage-inspired suits and gowns, Zelda was the picture of confidence, class, and attitude.
