    fashion is supposed to be a unique representation of your personality and image.....so why is it is homogenized? 

    haagsman.paul•...

    Because most of us like to fit in with the rest of society.  Fashionistas tend to be people that follow their own path.   I would encourage anyone to follow there own fashion muse

    Significance of Kendrick Lamar's Superbowl performance. Here's what I've learned so far, would love to hear everything others find!

    The Drake Stuff

    • As the lights in the audience at the end said, this is Kendrick's "Game Over" in his ever-increasing beef with Drake. They teased the song "Not Like Us," in which Kendrik calls Drake a pedophile, nodding to the immense talk over whether he would perform the song there. When they did do that song, they added insult to injury by panning the camera over a cameo of Drake's ex, Serena Williams, dancing.

    Black Culture

    • Every human in the entire halftime show was black, including the prime old-school representative of the USA, Uncle Sam, portrayed by Samuel Jackson.
    • When the dancers were in the american flag formation made only of men, there was a potent dance move of them all simultaneously did the Black Power fist.
    • One youtuber referenced the significance of the colors, when Kendrick was wearing mostly blue and the only other color on stage was dancers wearing red, that it was a powerful reference to last year's "Pop Out" concert in LA which was a groundbreaking moment in music creating unity because the stage was filled with members of both the Bloods and the Crips, two gangs that have had decades of violence between them, going so far as to gather for a group photo at the end of the concert. During the photo, Kendrick said "This is unity at its finest... this shit makes me prouder than a motherfucker..."
    • The choreography was jam packed with black culture, all the way to one of the most successful tennis players in history Crip Walking.
    • Black culture is also celebrated with the souped up Grand National car, streetlights, and clothing styles.

     

    Things I want to know more about:

    • There had to have been a lot of commentaries on America with how blatant that theme was. I'd love to learn what all people find, beyond what I've heard about the boldness of doing that while Trump was also there.
    • Symbolism, including the colors and all other things I missed.
    • Significance throughout the lyrics and phrases that were added in during transitions, etc.

    Just watched again- not one high heel in the whole performance. Even SZA's wearing sneakers, and still sexy as hell.

    Navigating Buying or Walking. For those of you who are good at saving your money. 💰 What inspires you to not buy? 

    Say you’re in a store or online and you see something cool. What do you do? What are your criteria for buying or walking away? 

    Asking because while I love knowing money is being put away, I also love to shop. It can be as simple as, I’m in Manchester (like I am right now) and want to buy something unique that I can’t buy at home. Or I don’t have a something in that color, fabric or design. I don’t need it. I just like it and will enjoy it.  

    How do you navigate this? What’s your approach?

    It’s super helpful to me to create a structure of rules for myself to obey in the moment and upgrade later if needed. For example, I used to buy way too much clothing at thrift stores because why not it’s so cheap....

    Who should date me? I get really pumped about what can be possible for online dating in UpTrust.

    For example, someone having high current trust scores from a majority of his exes.

    Or me going through all my single friends who are the gender I date and posting on their Dating Recommendations tree posts like I adore him as a friend and would totally want to date him if we wanted the same lifestyle! He gives the best hugs and is someone whose opinion I value highly when I make major decisions. I’d like to see him with a woman who embraces spirituality and likes throwing Superbowl parties.

    So here’s my personal test-drive. Feel free to populate this tree with your opinions on my dating life, recommendations, questions, etc. <3

    What's your view on EMFs? What do you belief about EMFs? I keep hearing seemingly reputable people warning about them. My husband says the argument isn’t scientifically sound. If you think EMFs are harmful, why, and how do you reduce exposure? I use wireless headphones a lot- my phone not so much.
