Carry that weight/I'm every woman

I've been thinking about the idea of a 'cultural wasteland'. These are all scans from various books I own on weird things like bacteria and children. Don't you just love pictures of discoloured meat from the 70s? I DO!

    1. No you do not sound dumb at all! I forget that not everyone is Australian.. Op shops are what we call thrift stores in Australia - it's short for opportunity shop - so like everything in there is an opportunity! haha :) :) :)

  3. Those are beautiful! I need to check out Biology books in charity shops for stuff like this. They probably stink bad though.
