Fashism


I’ve got all these horrid fashion magazines at home. Not Vogue even, Glamour and InStyle and crap. I hate them hate them hate them, especially because I read them so voraciously. They’re from McCallum street (used books) so I’m reading mags from random years as well. They’re interchangeable. There must be (are) so many moving parts in a woman, so many things to tone and buy and accessorize for things to be just right. And I suppose they never are. The amount of pseudo-science and lists and fears and dears is mind boggling, mind boggling I say. Especially when I’m feel like I can condense all of it in a few sentences.

  1. Here’s a hot sex tip. Give him a blowjob. No candles, no ice, no chocolate, just give him a fucking blowjob. If they printed only this women would be much more successful and men far less baffled by foodstuffs and random theatrics in bed
  2. You probably are fat, maybe you should lose weight. There are plastic surgeons listed at the back
  3. [Insert celebrity here] is surprisingly normal and disarming
  4. Adjusting levels of this [nutrient/food/activity] will [cause/prevent] cancer… if you’re a lab rat and that’s all they feed you for a month. If you’re human it’s pretty much up to chance. Don’t smoke so much.
  5. If you buy more expensive clothes maybe you can land guys with more money, though it’s really more vice versa.
  6. If you want to land a man, refer point one.

Whoever said, “The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach” clearly didn’t own a penis.

Miss Travel. Alternately, Mistravel

This is highly dubious. Miss Travel is a travel/social networking site that connects ‘Generous’ and ‘Attractive’ travelers. To, like, travel together, I guess. It all seems a bit like arranged prostitution and trafficking. This is part of a broader online trend to connect rich men to younger, attractive women. Sites like seekingarrangement.com connects women to ‘sugar daddies’ already. I guess Miss Travel is just taking that trend international. Wait, I checked, it’s the same guy doing both.

Buying Appliances Online (Singer)

Sri Lankan domestics never say anything, they just stop coming. My maid just stopped coming and when I finally pressed her she said I needed to get a washing machine. I was hoping to ride this one out, but I’ve run out of underwear and I have no choice. I finally caved and bought a washing machine, from Singer, ONLINE. I put the online in all caps because it’s pretty awesome. I ordered the thing in like 15 minutes on Saturday and they just delivered it today. It’s pretty awesome, this brave new world.

Future Porn

There’s nothing wrong with pornography, but there’s a lot wrong with porn. Nothing wrong with watching people have sex, but too often that sex is brutal, senseless and coerced. I mean how many couples are coming on each others faces every day? Hence, philosopher king Alain de Botton – after calling for a new atheism, replete with temple – is now calling for a new pornography. One which is “fit for thoughtful, good human beings”. Good idea.

Sri Lanka To Offer Dual Citizenship Again

Sri Lanka is going to start offer dual citizenship again, for people of Sri Lanka descent (ie, those who migrated or their kids). Which is good. Still not an actual immigration policy, but getting, well getting back to the status quo. I got dual citizenship years ago.
