The very talented Sydney Padua made pictures based on the jobs Victorian woman had according to the 1881 census, reminding us they didn't all just stayed at home cooking and looking after the kids. This should be a book. sydneypadua.com

Thanks to all for your kind remembrances on this awful day. Words will come later. Only feelings at the moment. Mourn and remember him but don’t forget to celebrate too. We won’t see his like again. The man from another place has gone home. #DavidLynch #TwinPeaks
