Cribbed extensively (fully) from today's Dazed States of Independence with Mike the Ruler, please see the following description of a SS'04 show and accompanying image and video. Then enjoy spending the rest of the day devouring more information about it. "Considering the awesome, spooky spectacle of Carol Christian Poell’s “Mainstream Downstream” presentation in Milan for men’s SS04, it’s a wonder the label isn’t more famous. Models were sent floating down the city’s Naviglio Grande canal (presumably buoyed by hidden floats), like a bunch of well-dressed corpses, or modern-day male Ophelias. Injections of blood red in the outfits only added to the sense of the macabre."

Well Buzzfeed really nailed it .  In particular: You don't have a closet full of clothes, you have a closet full of potential decisions that will eventually make you late. Any menu that is longer than one page is going to give you nightmares. Netflix = the thing that makes you waste more time deciding between 46 different options than actually watching one thing. You have definitely stood at the store trying to decide what to get for so long, that you finally just quit and went home. (Even if you went to the store SPECIFICALLY to buy something.) **also applies to Netflix Choosing what to read next is kind of torture. Friday night = the night when you argue with yourself for two hours about whether to go out or stay in. You really wish that Google maps would give you one route option, instead of three.  **New York edition: You can't decide the best train combo to get to 25th and 3rd, so you walk.

This is an excellent YouTube channel, with excerpts from audiobooks of Jung's works together with surrealist film clips. You're welcome.

What do Angiepymy's recently-used emoji say? [narrate/caption in the comments below]

so i was getting a post ready about how much we really need to watch black orpheus and then when i went to add it to our extra-official film list page thing ...well black orpheus was already there. i don't even know why i'm making this post now.

fa·til·o·quent   adjective   \fā ˈ tiləkwənt, fə ˈ -\ Prophetic; fatidical; speaking of fate. · Other form(s) : Fatiloquist · Etymology : Latin fatiloquus : fati- (fr.  fatum * ) + -loquus (fr.  loqui ) · See also : Fatidic ; Psalm 33:9   · Sample usage : In the beginning, a fatiloquent fellow spoke spake the world into existence. " Fatiloquist " is not to be confused with "ventriloquist". *So apparently the Latin noun fatum  is itself derived from for/fārī/fātus sum , a deponent verb meaning "to speak, talk, say". PIE = *bʰeh₂- BTW, you need to click each and every hyperlinked word above, because one of them is not like the others... #suspense

Lately in the course of daily reading, I've been acquainted with some particularly delicious English adjectives. It has been my custom [A] to raise an eyebrow whilst typing in a dictionary search, then [B] to grin-smirk at the monitor for anywhere from 5 seconds to 25 ( t  being correlated inversely to the Credibility Factor of the proposed PIE root), before finally [C] filing under Things That Exist and getting on with my day. But some of this shit is too good to keep to myself. So I'm gonna tack on a Part [D]: posting the word here. And I'm gonna call it WOTD , because ¡abbreviations! And when I'm bored at work I'm gonna scout out a word that be Fun and Interesting ( forms thereof  duh), and I'm prolly gonna match the first letter to the day of the week because ¡alliteration! And I'm gonna invite you to do the same, whenever you have occasion.  ~ Angiepymyjew
