One of those tumblrs that posts pictures of pretty ladies in various states of undress in the name of art or fashion or some other fucking thing just lobbed three interesting pictures across the bow of my dashboard.

Interesting because they’re of a friend and former co-worker who I haven’t seen much of in the last two years, but now I’ve seen two instances of what it looks like when she wears her hair down over her shoulders as a shirt. (Link almost certainly not safe for work, coffee shops, co-working facilities, libraries, browsing Tumblr while doing a bit of laundry at Mom & Dad’s, or, in my case, unsuspecting friends.)

In fairness to Tumblr’s half-naked lady awareness community and its erection based economy, the pictures were originally posted on lastnightsparty.whatever, which exists in it’s own strata of hipster perversion. She’s spent the last several years working for a monolithic fashion rag (parent company rhymes with flambĂ© blast) and a few fashion houses, so I don’t find myself at all surprised that she’d be running in the same circles as that fancy gentleman with the perm who finds himself so capable of getting girls to take their shirts off so he can photograph them and go all PIXORITDINTHAPPEN online, apparently with none of the Joe Francis-esque stigma one might expect. Furthermore she’s a big girl and she can do what she likes.

Nevertheless, the internet is a weird fucking place.
