Honestly I feel like SF is much more interesting now than it has been recently. Good things are happening in the WAYWT thread almost every day.

^ nobody has commented on my sick N. Hoolywood Amish shirt (I have like 3 or 4 N Hooly Amish quilt pieces) since I posted it, both here and on sufu.

Word. Still have the typical lumberjack steeze or SF uniform happening but with addition of some more gothninja-lite and luxe looks. It's a good mix of looks.

Please tell me cup sizes are different in Asia since an E-cup here is ridonkulous on a 100 pound Japanese girl.

Anyways, Kim K's breasts are probably DD's American size. The girl I'm messing with now is similarly blessed.

I am hoping for the day more women dress like this in LA, I feel like it's the perfect setting for balmain and even knock off balmain. It would be both marvelous and perfect. Come on celebrity blogs work your magic.

Chrono you should read my blag. No one else writes uncomfortably personal ramblings about being a hipster magician in suburban hell.

Monocle is similar. NYT etc. have experimented with subscription but it seems print/online pubs that have had success with a limited-access model do it by not putting the best content online at all, or at least marketing it so you think the best content is not online.

Look at the pubs SF has fetishized recently--Mens Ex, Non no, Free and Easy, etc. (Granted these are overwhelmingly not English language pubs to begin with). Not much online at all.


I've interned at a newspaper a couple times, and kept a watch over print journalism for years, so I've noticed this, too. Once the outlets realized they were sort of cutting off their nose to spite their face by giving everything away for free, they retreated and tried to slowly install a means to limit free content.

The average person has been conditioned to expect content at no expense, so it's been a difficult push in the other direction. As someone who wants to end up working in print/online journalism, I hope the majority of publications are able to find a sustainable model that utilizes the online component, but in a way that isn't slowly bleeding the industry dry.
