I was just watching the video for …Baby One More Time (because I hadn’t watched it in far too long) and remembering when luinelwen and I went to one of my primary school dances in matching outfits inspired by Britney Spears and All Saints. We had black skinny strap tops, camouflage cargo pants and our hair in pigtails with fluffy hair-ties. I hope I’ve got photos of those outfits, somewhere…

Heather Laine Talley: Zelda Wasn't 'Crazy': How What You Don't Know About Fitzgerald Tells Us Something About 'Crazy' Women, Then and Now »

fruit-coverednails:

“Scott benefited greatly from her eloquence and charisma, but Zelda’s ‘crazy’ also served his interests. This dynamic between Scott and Zelda is not unlike stories of women we know who in academic, professional and artistic contexts have been mentored to their peril. Affiliating with a seasoned professional may be ‘how you get started,’ but too often young women — artists, graduate students and business professionals experience the uncanny moment of seeing our work presented with someone else’s name attached. This relationship relies upon gendered patterns of socialization, which leave women less-equipped to be assertive, along with cultural tropes that label women ‘crazy bitches’ for speaking up and demanding credit or fair compensation for our original labor.”

I think that so much of this article is really good and I cried a little bit while I was reading it in a positive emotional release sort of way.

The Virgin Suicides, 1993 »

The Virgin Suicides was one of those movies I didn’t ‘get’ when I first watched it. And I think not ‘getting’ a film is a valid viewing - there are various reasons why a film may go over our heads …

I wrote very inarticulately about The Virgin Suicides on my movie blog and how it took ‘growing up’ for me to really understand this film/story.

vaeinzine: Situated in the upper level of Adelaide Arcade, Two-Bit Villains is a slice of kustom kulture and culinary heaven in the historic adelaide building. Opened in mid-2011, Two-Bit Villains set out to fill a gap in affordable threads for lovers of kustom kulture, rockabilly and vintage inspired fashions, as well as giving folks the chance to try items on instead.In March 2012 the Two-Bit Villains team moved from one side of the arcade to the other, expanding to add delectable eatables to their store.Catering to a range of dietary needs, including vegan and gluten-free options, the Two-Bit Villains menu is always promising something new to eat. The seasoned fries are probably the best I’ve eaten…then there are the home-made sodas which are likely the tastiest beverages to have ever wet my whistle. You can have them on their own or as a float (or, if you like, spider) and if you’re not feeling like anything carbonated there are also milkshakes available. Two-Bit Villains is definitely not the kind of place you want to only visit once (unless you can eat everything on the menu in one sitting…even then you’ll want to go back another day for more) and with an inviting atmosphere it’s easy to find yourself visiting again and again. - Andrea
