It’s been quite some time since I’ve felt like myself enough to do some bright over the top make up and dress up in a loud layered outfit. It was date night and we went to see An American Werewolf In London at the theater. It was a great night and I had such a good time seeing one of my favorites in a theater like that. I had fun doing make up too. I don’t think it had a place in my life from a day to day perspective, but it was a fun creative exercise. In Flickr Explore 10/10/2025

A woman with striking red hair poses confidently in a black leather outfit. The dynamic abstract background features colorful swirls and splashes of paint, creating an energetic atmosphere with the effect of her red hair seemingly flowing into the painting.
# 🎨 *The Painting in the Artist*
In a gallery tucked between the steel veins of the city, where concrete met canvas and neon flirted with nostalgia, she stood—unapologetically bold, a living brushstroke against a riot of color. Her name was Sera, and she wasn’t just in the painting. She was the painting.
Clad in a sleek black leather outfit that clung to her like a second skin, Sera’s presence was magnetic. Her red hair cascaded in waves, catching the gallery lights and seeming to bleed into the abstract backdrop behind her—an explosion of swirling color, splashes of electric blue, citrus orange, and fuchsia that danced like emotion made visible. The painting behind her was hers, but it was also her mirror.
She had painted it in a fevered burst of self-expression, each stroke a declaration of defiance, each swirl a rebellion against conformity. The canvas was large, almost overwhelming, but it bowed to her presence. Viewers didn’t just admire the art—they felt it, as if her confidence had seeped into the pigments themselves.
Sera’s pose was deliberate: chin lifted, one hand on her hip, the other relaxed, fingers stained with dried paint. Her black jacket, tailored and edgy, framed her like punctuation in a sentence of color. She didn’t smile, but her eyes held a spark—an invitation to see not just the art, but the artist. Not just the woman, but the force.
Around her, the gallery buzzed with murmurs and admiration. Some called it street art elevated to high fashion. Others saw emotional depth in the chaos. But all agreed on one thing: Sera had turned the act of painting into performance, and the performance into portraiture.
She was the muse and the maker, the canvas and the color. In a world that often-demanded softness, she chose sharpness. In a culture that prized subtlety, she embraced spectacle. And in that moment, framed by her own creation, she reminded everyone that true artistry isn’t just about what you make—it’s about who you dare to be.

Woman poses gracefully in a softly lit room with elegant decor and vintage style
A woman stands confidently in a softly lit room with a vintage feel, showcasing elegant features and stylish attire. The warm tones add to the ambiance of the setting.
"In the Language of Soft Light"
She stands where the evening hush
meets the glow of a vintage room,
soft light folding over her shoulders
like a whispered secret.
Confidence rests in her stance—
not loud, but certain,
woven into the curve of her arm,
the tilt of her chin,
the quiet command of her gaze.
Warm tones ripple through the air,
touching the edges of elegant decor,
where every detail—lamp, fabric, shadow—
becomes part of her portrait.
Her attire speaks in fluent style,
a chic silhouette
that carries both the grace of the past
and the pulse of the present.
The room holds its breath,
as if aware it has become
a frame for her presence—
timeless, poised,
a study in allure and tranquility.
And in that moment,
she is not simply *in* the light—
she *is* the light,
casting her own warmth
into the quiet corners of the world.

Obama Popular Despite Challenges
By David Zussman (*)
The United States is a great sporting nation and, as a result, Americans like keeping score and handicapping most public events. The performance of their presidents is no exception and, since the early days of the Roosevelt presidency, the media have marked the first 100 days by providing a report card based on their performance.
It is generally acknowledged that no other U.S. president has arrived in office with higher expectations than Barack Obama, and more difficult problems. It is, therefore, not surprising that he has been subjected to a steeper learning curve than his predecessors.
By the time Obama was sworn in on Jan. 20, the U.S. financial system was in freefall, the credit markets were becoming unglued, house prices were tumbling, and a half-dozen foreign hotspots required presidential attention. It is difficult to imagine how it could have been more challenging.
Since the 100-day mark is an artificial marker, the White House staff was reluctant to join in on the rating game but their efforts proved futile.
Once they realized that it was going to be impossible to blunt the media's interest in rating the administration's performance, some senior staff tried, albeit unsuccessfully, to lower the public's expectations regarding Obama's early accomplishments by assigning themselves a B-plus. And finally, the White House embraced the 100-day anniversary, with the president appearing at last month's 100-day town hall celebration in St. Louis.
At this point, given all of the challenges and difficulties encountered by Obama, he remains a very popular political leader. In fact, according to the Pew Foundation, his personal popularity is higher than the ratings for his individual programs.
However, there is a very wide gap in the perceptions of Democrats and Republicans, suggesting that he might be one of the most polarizing presidents when compared with his predecessors. This may foreshadow future political tensions in the United States.
While not popular with Republicans, Obama appears to have precipitated a dramatic shift in attitude in favour of a greater role for government in the United States and may be giving a new name to the notion of activism.
Most observers attribute the positive rankings to Obama's personal style. He offers calm leadership that is heavily dependent on teamwork.
It is generally acknowledged that his eclectic team of advisers has two characteristics. First, they represent a wide range of ideological beliefs that appears to have broad appeal, and they seek a consensus among key decision makers before they act. In addition, he prefers to signal his intentions and his overall policy direction, but is reluctant to dictate how the policy will be implemented. At this point, he is perfectly willing to allow Congress to sort out how his policies will be implemented.
Ironically, some observers have noted that his approach to governing is the one used by Ronald Reagan more than a generation ago.
Former Clinton labour secretary, Robert Reich, may have captured best Obama's "cool" approach to governing when he described the president as being "the serene centre of the cyclone -- exuding calm when most Americans are petrified."
While management style is obviously an important factor, America has also changed its attitudes since George W. Bush was first elected in 2000. The American population is aging and appears more predisposed to accept an increased role for government.
Given the obvious failure of the Bush administration to buffer Americans from the impact of unfettered markets, it is not surprising that Obama has been very effective in changing the conversation with Americans and bringing in a new paradigm about governing that includes a broader role for government.
The swine flu epidemic that is sweeping across the world is a good example of how events can upset the best plans of newly elected governments. The American political system replaces its senior managers after each change of administration but this time it has been severely handicapped during this crisis period.
More significant, the epidemic has also exposed the weaknesses of the American transition process that requires it to replace the top 7,000 public servants.
The complex vetting procedures in addition to the generally cumbersome appointment process has created a backlog of appointments that is undermining the government's ability to respond to its various challenges.
For example, at this point, the Obama administration has still to fill around 15 senior executive health jobs, with a similar number of vacancies at the Treasury department.
One observer noted that "we're setting up a system where the only people who qualify to work in government are the ones who never actually left government."
Trapped between retaining the former Bush-appointed administrators or following a lengthy search process to find suitable replacements, the government remains leaderless in too many important departments.
While the first 100 days are not a very good predictor of what's to come, it's clear that the public is currently content with Obama's performance.
He has introduced a new vocabulary and style to governing and he evidently understands Prof. Drew Westen's observation that citizens want to hear values-based and emotionally compelling narratives from their political leaders.
As in Canada, Americans want to be reassured that their leadership can feel their pain and is working in their interests.

It’s been quite some time since I’ve felt like myself enough to do some bright over the top make up and dress up in a loud layered outfit. It was date night and we went to see An American Werewolf In London at the theater. It was a great night and I had such a good time seeing one of my favorites in a theater like that. I had fun doing make up too. I don’t think it had a place in my life from a day to day perspective, but it was a fun creative exercise.
in the serene settings of parc de sa feixina in palma, this photograph captures the bond between a stylish dog owner and his loyal bulldog. The man, dressed in a sporty Newcastle United jersey, exudes a casual yet distinct style, reflecting a relaxed urban life. His tattoos peek out, adding a personal touch to his portrait, while his bulldog, attentive and poised, complements his demeanor perfectly. Together, they traverse the park’s landscape, a snapshot of daily life where the simplicity of a walk reveals the deeper connection shared between man and dog. This image celebrates not only the companionship but also the style and individuality that come to life in everyday moments.
Went out to run some errands and I actually felt like getting shined up nice. One of the things I love most about Dracula is that he is also a weirdo and doesn’t mind the social interaction that sort of comes second nature to dressing very… loudly. Haha. I really love this sweater vest I thrifted recently. Aside from my tights (Snag tights), boots (Dr Martens from 2011-ish), and earrings (I made them), all this stuff you see is thrifted.
