On the Importance of Listening to your Gut....

Wow, wow, and wow.

Please check out this article in the Washington Post about Stanislav Petrov and how he saved the world (as far as I'm concerned). I won't recap since you can just link through and read all about it in the WaPo article...

The group that gave him the World Citizen Award has received such a strong response since April that they have begun accepting donations for Stanislav, who is still living in Russia. Please consider donating... this guy is the best, obvs.

turtle head or package stalk remedy?



I just started getting this Japanese magazine called Street Jack. Street Jack is geared towards men; they focus mostly on sneakers, but also shoot guys wearing a lot of BAPE and lady like sandals and really, really crazy shit on the streets of Tokyo. I look through it mostly to check out sneaker color blockings and silhouettes for work, but I really relish the ads in the back of the mag. In this other magazine I get for the ladies, Non-No, there is a bevy of ads on hair removal with ladies showing off close ups of their pits and weight loss ads with plump ladies shown before and after (I can never see a serious difference). Since I just started getting Street Jack, I was excited to see what interesting ads I would find in the back... I think I was even thinking about it when I ordered the subscription.
Oh wow.
I opened up the mag to the last pages and came across this pic. I honestly and seriously thought I was looking at cartoon onions.
Curiosity got the best of me on this one and I went straight to the website.... Although I really, really enjoyed the pleasant visual story in the beginning, the site as a whole was highly dissatisfying since I can't read Japanese. I babelfished it.
Holy shit.
I think the joy here lies in the discovery and horrible translation... and learning about turtle heads and the difference between the Cantonese package stalk and false package stalk.....Because I know you're curious.
