This is why I love linguaphiles.

Dear Jack,
I want a man who knows what love is all about. You are generous, kind, thoughtful. People who are not like you admit to being useless and inferior. You have ruined me for other men. I yearn for you. I have no feelings whatsoever when we're apart. I can be forever happy- Will you let me be yours?

Original entry found here.

And also, recently found the website of Margaret Keane, who I hear was the source of inspiration for Mark Ryden, and probably Loretta Lux as well. Mmm ethereal, creepy, yet beautiful. Keane's work (from the little collection she shows us) is often about animals, kids, or Japanese people...(?) So I thought this one is quite representative (and kind of ties in above. And it has a kitten in it).


intellecticious, funny
