I was so sad to miss the show on the Facades series! And now with his death, the [out-of-print] Facades book is of course selling for $125+ a copy on Amazon. Booo. Do you know if there’s anywhere online to view more of the Facades collection than the very few posted on the Society’s website?

WTeverlastingF PETA. I had no idea. Thank you for sharing. This is so unbelievably fucked up.

Although (in only semi-related news), I had corn & mayonnaise sushi at a conveyer-belt sushi restaurant the last time I was in Japan, and it was unabashedly fantastic. It was exactly what it sounds like...sushi rice wrapped in seaweed and topped with cooked corn kernels and Kewpie mayonnaise.

Indeed, I just love the use of the word “young” in this sentence.

That’s a fascinating way of approaching it, and one I hadn’t heard before. Would the reverse work as well - levels of estrogen? Like anything, I’m sure there are tons of pitfalls and potential issues with this solution, but it makes more sense than many others I’ve heard batted around.

I love this story, and I love that saying from your mom. I’ve never heard that before but it is so, so true. Thank you for sharing - it sums up Richard perfectly. <3

Great article - thanks for sharing!

Agreed, I don’t really want any toplessness at the dinner table. :D

I think that in our country (the US) specifically, much of it descends from the Puritans’ views that were so indoctrinated into the earliest years of European settlers here. Although that was a long time ago, it’s my understanding that some of that got so deeply embedded in our psyches that it never really went away.

Honest question...are bow ties a strictly (or implicitly) Republican thing now? Because I always liked them, but I don’t like the idea of clothing choices that make implicit political statements. This is all news to me. I thought bow ties were just hipster.
