This girls is literally perfect. I can't resist posting this. I wanna get my hair cut like this right now. I love when she says "Oh shit" in the video, it's so adorable. I love her voice too.
Androgyny as Suberversion.
Every once in a while a fashion archetype comes in so strong and influential that it cannot be ignored. Anything other than androgyny is unacceptable right now. She's perfect. I love the aesthetics and also the sound of this video, reminds me of when I went to see the Punk exhibit in Vienna a few years ago.
self-expression

If you're not watching Parks and Recs, you're missing out. Also, Ron Swanson and I may have similar interests.

Lentils
I made this today.
Coconut lentil soup, Heidi Swanson's recipe.
I pretty much just followed the recipe, but I never measure anything and I added bacon and used curry paste instead of curry powder. It was really delicious, I feel human again.

Dear Virginia
"I am reduced to a thing that wants Virginia. I composed a beautiful letter to you in the sleepless nightmare hours of the night, and it has all gone: I just miss you, in a quite simple desperate human way. You, with all your un-dumb letters, would never write so elementary a phrase as that; perhaps you wouldn’t even feel it. And yet I believe you’ll be sensible of a little gap. But you’d clothe it in so exquisite a phrase that it would lose a little of its reality. Whereas with me it is quite stark: I miss you even more than I could have believed; and I was prepared to miss you a good deal. So this letter is just really a squeal of pain. It is incredible how essential to me you have become. I suppose you are accustomed to people saying these things. Damn you, spoilt creature; I shan’t make you love me any the more by giving myself away like this —But oh my dear, I can’t be clever and stand-offish with you: I love you too much for that. Too truly. You have no idea how stand-offish I can be with people I don’t love. I have brought it to a fine art. But you have broken down my defences. And I don’t really resent it."

A hustle here, and a hustle there.
Holly came from Miami, F.L.A.
Hitch-hiked her way across the USA
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she
She says, Hey babe
Take a walk on the wild side
Hey honey
Take a walk on the wild side
