just finished the maggie gyllenhaal audiobook which was so entertaining. so well written and so insightful into the minutiae of being a girl. the magnifying glass she uses to describe her surroundings and feelings! she can't sleep and she can't read! the metaphors!!! so tragic to think how she overcame this but still came to such a sad end :( and even worse to think of how hard she was on herself and how revered she is now

I started with this book, it’s more of an essay than novel but really eye opening and I think it introduces her work very well

I sometimes worry that I wouldn’t be such a feminist if I had bigger tits.

My toaster is having a bad week so she doesn’t have the energy to hold the lever down anymore. Which means I have to stand there pressing it down for three minutes making sure my toast doesn’t burn. I used to take that time for granted, now it’s being robbed of me by my broken toaster. Trying to give her grace.

Give your beauty to the people who can stare back in real-time and give you theirs. I rarely think I look like myself in pictures and that’s because I look like me outside where my expressions harmonize with the sunlight.
This portrait of Dorothy Beridge, (by Joseph Wright of Derby) is on display in MIA and they actually have a plaque describing her as having plain features, which is the worst insult of the 18th century. She‘s trapped in a museum where the professionals call her uggo. I want to meet her in person where those features are meant to be seen. But, she gave that to her friends and family, not the strangers passing her by on their way to the elevators.
