I hate that everyone points at eReaders killing Borders when it was really Amazon/constant CEO changes. I think I there was a new chair in each time I changed my own position in the years I worked as a Borders employee. Yeah, the eReader didn't help, but B&N is able to still keep afloat because they knew how to make…

I was referring to her for sale prints, but at the same time, it's also not the best photography I've seen, compositionally.

Like I said in my last comment to you regarding this, English is hard. It's a stupid bastard language that can't decide if it's truly a Germanic language, or French, or Gaelic. That gets really confusing when the majority of languages outside of the Anglophonic world has a more solid root.

Some people have greater…

Ehhhhh, English is a hard language, man. My rommate has been in America for about half her life and she's got a thick accent and trouble with some words. My cousin has been here since we were ten and he has the same issues still. AND our family is from a dual language country with English as an official language.…

As much as I'd love to pin everything on racist white conservatives, racism comes from everywhere, including good intentions. And a quite a bit of the racism I've experienced as an ambiguously mixed-race POC have also come from POCs, not to mention white liberals.

While I'm not 100% sure that this project is the best of ideas with her intentions well thought out, I'm not sure that a photographer selling art that includes her daughter is the most villainous thing ever. But that just might be my being an artist talking.

I think a lot of it depends on why they were popular, which also can depend on the mentality of the school/town. Art school has that specific "deep" tone that Mark mentioned. Smaller, local-sports-obsessed towns are more likely to carry out the stereotypes in the video. My school was in between, as I expect most…

Also the fact that you (I presume) and I were more likely to go shop in Spencers as kids/teens than as adults, now. This woman is not protecting anyone and is actually giving cause for a second print run of a poorly designed tee collection.

I work at a graphic tee company. This kind of placement with no treatment, no good scaling and no boarders is shit we sell to Wal-mart.

You and I have vastly different definitions of pornographic, then. There's nothing in that image that you don't see in a Victoria Secrets window or catalog. Porn implies a sexual act, not sexuality.

I kept asking friends of mine that liked football to explain this shit to me when I was dating a football fan and I just gave up when I felt like a child having the facts of life explained to them. It was that awkward.

The last guy I was regularly dating was really big into football and I just. Didn't. Get it. It's not even that I'm completely uninterested in sports: we had phone conversations watching the World Cup and getting into it. But I'm just so not into football and I avoid it like the plague, so I was honestly dreading the…

Disney in the '90s was actually fantastic with women, before Princesses became a seperate franchise (I think in '97?). While the women of the feature films left a lot of feminists wanting, a good deal of that had to do with the fact that their films were based on pretty sexist fairy tales. However, both the Little…

There were, but Disney Princess as a franchise wasn't a thing until well after Aladdin came out. All the Disney Renaissance characters had a fashion doll for the girls, but other than that and most of the costumes, a lot of the toys were honestly more gender neutral. They even had some dress ups for the boys, though…

And How to Train Your Dragon. He's fond of creature designs, pin-ups and drawing scamps. He's one of my favorite concept illustrators.

It's also the first Disney film ever where white people were in the background. All the major characters are PoCs and aliens.

I think that largely depends on location, though. The colors are lighter and there tends to be an exclusion of the blazer or vest in the three-piece ensemble, but there are a lot of young men in NYC that dress up more. There are two guys in my office (which is a mass producing clothing company and extremely laid back)…

Still way more dressed up than the average fedora-wearing dudebro, though. I cringe a little every time I see one of my favorite TV actors wearing a fedora in that dudebro style.

Same, though a lot of it is also that I was running late for work and my hair was no cooperating when I tried to fix it. And I try to make sure it's not one of the rare days that I have to go in to a license meeting with one of the companies we produce work for. But my job is so casual, a buyer from another shop sends…

This is honestly a big reason for it, which is why women still typically removed their more functional headgear in the haydays where these rules started to come into play. Bonnets and brimmed hat's that don't need pinning often came with a brim, which meant that your face is shaded and/or obstructing someone else's…
