Ilford XP2 B&W Disposable Camera
Words cannot express how much I miss affordable, non-disposable, analogue, point-and-shoot cameras. Ilford XP2 is 3 out of 4, so I’m sticking with it. Advertisements

Feminism: you’re doing it wrong
It’s chicks like you that give women a bad name.
Kodak Pocket Instamatic
We had a Kodak Instamatic 110 camera when I was kid, which was eventually replaced by something more modern – by 1989’s standards. Being a lover of film and wanting something a bit more handy than a 1kg camera, I decided to search the interweb for a working sister of my old Instamatic. It cost me 2€ and the seller […]

‘Animais de Sangue Frio’
Festa de lançamento de Animais de Sangue Frio, o segundo livro de Elisabete Marques, ed. Língua Morta. Como um maquinismo louco ou uma lâmpada quase fundida, sou intervalado. Tremo até deslocar o ar. Minha inquietação, uma espécie de granido sem moldura. Vi-me ansioso por ser completo e absoluto, eu. Esta questão de lugar, o lugar sempre outro e atravessado e esquivo. […]
Viver com Esclerose Múltipla
O próximo dia 31 de Maio marca o Dia Mundial da Esclerose Múltipla. Para assinalar a data, a Sociedade Portuguesa de Esclerose Múltipla (SPEM) organizou uma exposição no jardim exterior do Centro Comercial Colombo que, para além de querer divulgar a doença e as várias formas de apoio, tenta, principalmente, mostrar-nos o que é viver com EM. Desde os pesos […]
Amélia dos olhos doces
Há cerca de 3 anos atrás, decidi colaborar com a Associação Mais Proximidade Melhor Vida (MPMV) e voluntariei-me para visitas semanais a um(a) idoso/a a ser designado. Alistei a amiga Stella e, pouco tempo depois, fomos informadas de que iriamos visitar uma octagenária “bastante culta, que fala com a família por Skype, por Facebook e por mail.” No dia 19 de […]

that’s how the light gets in
Last week I went to the photo store to develop a black & white film I had completely forgotten about. “We’re sorry, but the pictures are ruined,” they told me. “There must have been light coming into the film at one point, and only one photo made it. Do you still want us to print it?” Heck, yeah. Turns out […]
Daily grind
When you stay home for 6 months healing a broken foot, going back to the daily work routine feels like this.

family is…
…texting your proxy-mom asking if you can have dinner at her place because you had a shitty day and don’t feel like going back to an empty house to wallow in self-pity – and seeing this when you finally get there:

it’s the manic goblins!
It’s the goblins again! The plan: go to one of The Holy Bible shows in 2015. The venture: never-ending setbacks from day one. Getting the tickets back in December of last year was a nightmare, from visa cards failing, to money transfers and login issues – all to the sound of the ticking clock you always get with shows that […]
