You study the objects passing you by, and with them your immaturity and misconceptions, and the bitter pain you swallow, tasting your own blood.
I dont wanna hope for the best, i wanna hope for what i want
Together we can fashion the coil of fear around your gut into a flower and release like a Chinese lantern into the sky. Come on, you have enough for a spectacle.
Imagine this series of words posing shirtless under a spectacular waterfall of YouTube comments
People on diet aren't mad at you. They're mad at their lunch
Me and the hummingbirds have come to an agreement: I won’t try to trim the honeysuckle and they won’t try to stab me in the face.
Ill formed taste is not a thing to be consulted, but rested, hibernated until from the depths of oblivion, it emerges as a blank, hungry for culture.
All along it was me: the persuasion and the bully on the vast, blank sheet of not a speck.
Sometimes I get overwhelmed and need to disappear for 2 to 3 books
That look you reserve for the walls, I’ve seen leaves turn yellow from its vacuity. The moss cover everywhere, you, again.
“Why you hurting yourself? Why you hurting yourself?” - me to my brain
I suggested to my wife that it seemed pointless to continually fill the bird feeder, as the squirrels always empty it in hours. Behind me, my son said, “It’s in your interest for the squirrels to be on your side when the Great War begins,” and ate another spoonful of Froot Loops.
A pigeon flies swiftly across a uniformly grey sky, and you are overcome by the urge to wear something orange and yellow. To be that bird among birds.
The sun shall set brilliant into the sea and turn to seashells as per usual, like you vanish into an outline of sighs and disperse as disapproval.
I might just be a crown on a sapling, but I can persuade the sky to wash my feet.
A moth flies into your face out of nowhere. You could ask him why he does that, but what would you do with the information?
I opened my door to go outside & one of the barn cats ran inside, sat down in the center of the room, & calmly stared at me like, "Greetings. I have conquered this house in the name of Spain. This is my colony now."
Believe it or not, a belief can be altered enough to make room for kindness and it still functions as good as any old belief.
Consider a heart with holes for windows and a cross breeze of humanity’s woes and joys, passing by without lodging.

Just his family. We sat and talked for 2 hrs before exchanging numbers. Bub slept the whole way through. Mother left with a new friend of her own, and a list of support in WA that can help her. 🥰

@dieworkwear I'm obsessed with that blue sweater!
@dieworkwear i got one of their flannels at a thrift store in Nantucket for $8 and had no idea what the brand was until after i bought it. it fits incredibly well and is so well made i feel very lucky
@dieworkwear I gasped at this outfit. Sending to my daughter in Austin. Thanks for the wonderful tips, @dieworkwear.
@dieworkwear That black (or navy blue?) pleated maxi skirt is my new obsession. Absolutely gorgeous and timeless. I would pair it with a vintage beaded cardigan and ballet flats. Or else an old concert t-shirt and my favorite Docs. On hot days, a black Hanro camisole and fisherman's sandals.
@dieworkwear Just discovered a new brand I can’t afford ❤️
As usual, this is not a paid post (I don't even know anyone at 45rpm). Just sharing a brand I admire. The clothes are simple and often inspired by workwear, which may or may not be your bag. But they're cool to check out if you like thoughtful designs, unique details, and quality
I once asked Fred Nieddu, a bespoke tailor who made all the menswear for The Crown, if there are any ready-to-wear companies he especially admires. He said 45rpm. When he holds trunk shows in NYC or San Francisco, he tries to make time to visit one of their stores.
Antonio said that he's never seen a 45rpm garment that one of his Italian suppliers could replicate without charging double. There's always some complicated technique that requires skilled handwork or special machinery that would slow down production.
IMO, people often look for simple ways to understand quality, like durability or the price of the materials. But sometimes quality is about how much time it takes to create an item. Factories don't like stopping and restarting their line, as time is money.
Even the bandanas involve a lot of craft. They're woven on old 110 cm looms, which is why these 55 cm bandanas have a selvedge on one side. Designs are hand drawn and then applied using a combination of hand silkscreening and discharge printing.
More bar tacking on the center back seam. The interior waistband has also been finished with a chainstitch, which is a detail you see on jeans. But since this is a split-back waist, the material has been turned inward by hand. Outseam also has a chainstitch.
The materials on these side pockets have been slightly offset, so they looked piped. The fully curtained waistband has been attached to the interior of the pants using handsewn floating bartacks.
The thing about 45pm is that the "quality" is not always apparent to casual observers. Years ago, Antonio of 18 East—who used to run an Isaia sub-label called Eidos—broke down all the work that went into these seemingly basic navy 45rpm chinos.
I fell in love with 45rpm 15 years ago after coming across their lookbooks. Their lookbooks at the time were often shot by Eric Kvatek, a talented photographer who now works for Kapital. Here are some images from more recent lookbooks (my old image files are too low res)
If you like quality for quality's sake, and you mostly wear casualwear, then I think you should check out the Japanese brand 45rpm. 🧵
I dont wanna hope for the best, i wanna hope for what i want
