The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 12 December 2017 6 Comments

From Blackbird, the Weird Wife rollerball gift set: "She may not actually be a she, or a wife. She's her own person. She dresses for herself. Her thoughts are her own. She dances or sings at the wrong time. She knows that cheese and crackers is a perfectly acceptable dinner. [...] Feel free to gift to anyone who might enjoy this combination. Packaging is not labeled with set name." With 10 ml each of Y06-S and Anemone in "a small black and white Blackbird branded box ready for gifting", $76.

    So why call it a gendered name? Call it the Weirdo set, not Weird Wife!

      I’m on their email list, and in their emails they mention that the set is inspired by Brett Westfall’s painting “Weird Wife.”

        Yes, sorry, probably should have included that bit of info!
