When I say I'm a hat bitch, this is what I mean.

@spiegelmama @catsalad Is that for mourning?

@spiegelmama

great hat/look!

@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

@Carolee Yay! Hats are necessary here in Los Angeles, but also great for keeping glasses useful in the rain.

[sternecker@infosec.exchange]

@spiegelmama stunning..
and fierce!

@catsalad Spend all your money at Witchwood Bags https://witchwoodbags.com/

@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.

@spiegelmama Nooooo
You're going to bankrupt me!

[spiegelmama@infosec.exchange]

@paul_ipv6 Thank you, friend! I never do looks, so it's nice when I do one and it works.

[spiegelmama@infosec.exchange]

@sternecker Thank you! I do enjoy cutting the occasional bitch.

[spiegelmama@infosec.exchange]

@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

@spiegelmama @michaelgemar @catsalad Looks more appropriate for evening, if you ask me.

The hat is awesome

@spiegelmama
in my countryside they have an ancient name Wildriderske or short Wildrider 🧙‍️
Nightmares in german are Albträume ( 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 Jürgen last days discours: ( yeah, english , but look how scientific long he wrotes .. abstract ? )

@spiegelmama wayyyy cute!

@spiegelmama
It might work well against cameras with facial recognition.

[gorfram@beige.party]

@spiegelmama I bet that hat is extra handy during fly season

[thepolishdispatch@mstdn.social]

@spiegelmama It would be a massive hit in Australia.

[spiegelmama@infosec.exchange]

@spytfyre Aww, thank you! I would love a stick to hit people with. I do have a shillelagh that belonged to my grandfather, but my son has claimed it.
