Frida Khalo was such a legend. I can't say anything that hasn't already been said, because she is so iconic. But for me, her self determination and control of her own image in the face of her illness and disability is the lesson we could all take from her. #Tate #art

Autorretrato con collar de espinas y colibrí Frida Kahlo - Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird, 1940 In this self-portrait, Kahlo portrays herself wearing her hair in an elaborate braid, adorned with butterfly brooches. On either side are a monkey and a cat. She wears a necklace made of thorns, which pierce her throat. From her necklace hangs a dead hummingbird. Above her head some gossamer blooms look like dragonflies.
Frida Kahlo - Girl with Death Mask, 1938, Oil paint on tin plate In this miniature painting, a young girl wears a skull mask while holding a yellow marigold flower. Both objects are associated with the Day of the Dead, a day in Mexican culture where the dead are celebrated instead of mourned. The tiger mask that lies near the girl's feet is used for traditional celebrations in the state of Guerrero, Mexico. The open landscape, gentle colour palette and the presence of a child contrasts with th…
A rare self portrait of Frida with her hair loose. An inscription below tells us that this is her, aged 37, painted in the mirror.
Self-Portrait (in a Velvet Dress), 1926, Oil paint on canvas This was Kahlo's first self-portrait, painted soon after she was hit by a bus, sustaining serious injuries.

The city’s new transit plan wants to encourage "workers and visitors who travel to the downtown core to extend their time in the area."

I think the #LIRR strike was basically like undoing #CongestionPricing. My kids' bus has returned to taking 1.5 hours each way rather than 45-60mins.
Now that the strike is over, let's hope traffic returns to normal. It would be a great time to raise the congestion prici…

It somehow saves me $32 to BART to Richmond instead of taking the bus connector to Oakland? I could see that making sense if it was mid-line, but it's not like they are going to sell that seat from OAK to Richmond.
