Cora, official tumblr old™, ace bi, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, cryptid, I honestly have no idea what labels best fit, mostly I'm just a collection of anxieties and depression stacked on top of each other in a trenchcoat masquerading as a person.

London’s alternative royals… 

The Pearly Kings and Queens were founded in the 19th century by Henry Croft, an orphan who worked as a street sweeper in Somers Town, London.

Inspired by the Costermongers, a close-knit group of market traders who sewed buttons onto their garments in order to recognise one another, Henry decided that he wanted to help the needy in the same way that the Costermongers helped each other.

Knowing that he needed to stand out if he was to collect money for charity, Henry swept the street for pearl buttons and eventually gathered enough to cover his entire suit. He soon became so popular and successful as a charity collector that he could not cope with the demands for his help. He then asked the Costermongers for assistance, many of whom became the first Pearly Families.

Today, after more than 125 years, there are are still many Pearly Kings and Queens who carry on Henry Croft’s charitable aims and once a year they gather in central London to celebrate the Autumn harvest…

You see that one? He's called the "heel." He looks mean and says a lot of scary things, but it's not real and he's actually very nice. When he says "I'm going to break you in half" you don't have to be scared because it's pretend. These two talked about this beforehand, and now they're playing pretend together. Can you think of any other situations that might be like this?

no that part was real

saw someone on instagram say “you shouldn’t post your art until it’s good” and that comment filled me with rage so i want to say to every beginner artist or artist who feels their art is not improving no matter how long they’ve been at it. i love you and i love your art and everything you post bears part of you and that is so beautiful. block everyone who says otherwise they are not entitled to freely consume what they rag on.

You're never going to think your art is good enough. Following this advice means nobody ever gets to see your art.
