@spiegelmama Nooooo 😭
You're going to bankrupt me!
@catsalad @spiegelmama came to say this! ☝️😁✌️
@spiegelmama @catsalad Is that for mourning?
@michaelgemar I don't think so - it might be based on a mourning hat, but not one I'm familiar with. It's mostly just goth.
@catsalad
@spiegelmama @michaelgemar @catsalad Looks more appropriate for evening, if you ask me. πŸ€”πŸ˜
@ColesStreetPothole It was almost 7 pm when that picture was taken. I was going out, don't worry. 😁

@spiegelmama

great hat/look!

@paul_ipv6 Thank you, friend! I never do looks, so it's nice when I do one and it works. 😁
@spiegelmama Yesterday I had here a discours about german fairy tales and historic legends e.g. from brothers Grimm. We discussed the differences between Hags, Witches and Trudes. You don't know Trudes ? Cursed women with lunatics that leave their bodies in night times and torture other sleepers by sitting on their bodies causing night mares
@enigma I've seen them in art - I'm familiar with them as mares rather than trudes. Different cultures have different names for them, I guess! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_hag
Night hag - Wikipedia

@spiegelmama
in my countryside they have an ancient name Wildriderske or short Wildrider πŸ˜„πŸ§™β€β™€οΈ
Nightmares in german are AlbtrΓ€ume ( Alb dreams). But the demon for Albs is called the Alp
The names root is peculiar because it's derived from .. Elves ( germ. Elf ... Alb)
maybe you'd like to see the outcome from JΓΌrgen last days discours: ( yeah, english πŸ˜€πŸ™, but look how scientific long he wrotes .. abstract ? )

Aaaaaaaaaannnddddd… followed. πŸ‘’πŸ–€

@Carolee Yay! Hats are necessary here in Los Angeles, but also great for keeping glasses useful in the rain.
@spiegelmama
It might work well against cameras with facial recognition.
@spiegelmama I bet that hat is extra handy during fly season
@Gorfram It's getting to be mosquito season - we'll see how it does.
@spiegelmama It would be a massive hit in Australia.
@ThePolishDispatch I'm sure it would find its people anywhere. 😁
@spiegelmama Fabulous hat! Suits you.
@caity The less seen of me, the better, on some days. πŸ˜‚
@spiegelmama Theres no flies on you!
@DJDarren Not unless they can get past the fringe!
@spiegelmama that’s next level hattage right there, awesome.
@alexanderdyas Thank you! I almost wore a top hat that honestly makes me look like Babadook. I'm glad I rethought the plan.
