You would think people would be thrilled to have someone seemingly forward thinking and creative gracing the cover of Vogue.

    VERSACE AUTUM/WINTER 2014| MILAN FASHION WEEK

I think it’s really important today with what’s going on in the world with civil rights and love.” – Donatella…

    Independent Music Isn’t Dead. It’s the Only Thing Left. If you haven’t been reading the trades for the last couple of years, you might be saddened to know that the music industry–at least, the music industry as it has been molded over the last 40 years–is crumbling. The cause of death is a pretty simple one: You and I and everyone we know have been stealing records for almost ten years now, remorselessly and relentlessly. As much as we all hate to listen to Lars Ulrich cry into Bob Rock’s silk ascot, it’s true. It’s illegal, and we’ve been doing it because we assume that we are justified because our…

    The Reclamation of Words

    Author: Jon Lawrence The Reclamation of Words I have been using words for a very long time, I owe so much to them. They helped me proclaim my devotion to my wife nine years ago this very day, they enabled me to eloquently articulate my feelings in poetry and songs, and they were really useful when writing my somewhat tart, yet amusing and satisfying letter of resignation after eleven intolerable years at a certain teaching establishment. I therefore feel compelled to stand up for the verbs, pro-nouns, nouns, adjectives and onomatopoeias, invectives and more, that have served me so well. For all the good they do for us we, the…
