Clocking in at barely more than half an hour, these eleven songs whiz by in a gorgeous blur, over far too soon.

The Shins’ Oh, Inverted World was released 12 years ago today.

opulate:

how about instead of “all body types are beautiful” we say “beauty is extremely subjective and fleeting and doesn’t determine your worth and you don’t owe attractiveness to anyone so why don’t you focus on something important like being a worthwhile human being”

Movies should not be made like this.

This is why I don’t blame Cumberbatch himself for taking the role: by all accounts, at the time he signed the contract, he didn’t know his character’s real identity.

(Actually I try not to blame actors in general for taking parts, unless they’re in a position where they can pick and choose their roles, Johnny Depp. People gotta pay the rent, after all. I save my side eye for when they’re actively stupid, like Jackson Rathbone saying all he needed to play Sokka was a tan.)

That is a thing I did not know! Yaaay I have a reason to be less irritated with Cumberbatch, which is nice, because I’m spending too much time irritated with JJ Abrams-related things lately.

I was disgusted to find this out, to be honest. The whole thing continues to smack of JJ knowing he’d done a bad thing, giving no shits, and actively undercutting the ability of fans/consumers to make an informed decision about their purchase.

Yeah, I don’t have a beef with Cumberbatch on this—it’s Abrams I’m not happy with here.

Life Before Photoshop -1950

Bruce Mozert was renowned for being pretty innovative, coming up with underwater tricks to make these scenes seem as real as possible including using baking powder to create the powdery “smoke” coming out of the underwater barbecue.

“The real fashion victims are not celebrities, but anonymous workers in poor conditions, in polluted countries.”

Spanish artist Yolanda Dominguez makes a statement on the garment industry, staging live art with “dead” models, symbolizing the 1,129 workers who perished in a Bangladeshi garment factory in April. Dominguez’s show, on Madrid’s posh Gran Via, lie in direct competition with the flagship stores of many global discount brands like H&M and Zara.

Music on the Bones

When vinyl was scarce various underground retailers sought out alternatives. One such alternative was to print music on old discarded x-rays they recovered from the Soviet hospital. The result was a flimsy disk with ghostly images of rib cages and broken limbs imprinted on the plastic.

then I had an emergency vending machine breakfast, because I knew I couldn’t get it together and be human any other way. I had a honey bun, but all I could think about while I was eating it was drowning in the innards of a jelly donut. Yeah, not having a great morning.

it’s one of those mornings where I lay in bed until the last minute trying to decide what to wear, and then I get up to put it on and still have no idea if I’m actually going to wear it.
