Flexing: A Fusion of Contortion and Break Dancing
Flexing (aka “bone breaking”) is a fusion street dance style that incorporates contortion with various other styles. The dance group in the video is the NextLevel Squad, and the music is by B’zwax. It was filmed by Yak Films, who have done hundreds of urban dance videos.

A Tentaclesque Embrace: Does no one realize that some people are naturally that slim? And that...:
Does no one realize that some people are naturally that slim? And that just as much as you can hurt a naturally fat girl’s feelings for trying to pressure her into losing weight, you can hurt a naturally skinny girl’s feelings for making her body type out to be sickly or wrong?
And on top of that, even if they weren’t “naturally” that size, per se
if their size was a consequence of an eating disorder
why
fucking why
would you make them feel even shittier?
People with eating disorders do not feel good inside.
Your being an asshole about skinny does not discourage others from developing an eating disorder, it does not make people WITH eating disorders just fucking miraculously quit their eating disorders and it certainly doesn’t encourage body acceptance
like fuck
people
just pay attention

Acedia: The ADHD of the Middle Ages
John Plotz writes for The New York Times:
By some miracle, you set aside a day to tackle that project you can’t seem to finish in the office. You close the door, boot up your laptop, open the right file and . . . five minutes later catch yourself thinking about dinner. By 10 a.m., you’re staring at the wall, even squinting at it between your fingertips. Is this day 50 hours long? Soon, you fall into a light, unsatisfying sleep and awake dizzy or with a pounding headache; all your limbs feel weighed down. At which point, most likely around noon, you commit a fatal error: leaving the room. I’ll just garden for a bit, you tell yourself, or do a little charity work. Hmmm, I wonder if my friend Gregory is around?
This probably strikes you as an extremely, even a uniquely, modern problem. Pick up an early medieval monastic text, however, and you will find extensive discussion of all the symptoms listed above, as well as a diagnosis. Acedia, also known as the “noonday demon,” appears again and again in the writings of the Desert Fathers from the fourth and fifth centuries. Wherever monks and nuns retreated into cells to labor and to meditate on matters spiritual, the illness struck.

Acedia was also considered a precursor to the deadly sin of sloth.

I like the jacket, even without a tie.
Love the lace. Not crazy about the beret or the lack of a tie.
