thistle is a writer, illustrator and flower lover based in Dresden, Germany.

She has worked in a bookstore, a porn cinema (briefly), an office (less briefly) and academia.

This blog is how she passes the meantime. It mostly contains film reviews mixed with touches of memoir and reflective essay (because A.I. can’t copy personal insight) and some artwork.

Otherwise, she is probably tending to one of her many pet plants. Not a thistle among them, though.
