You know how 50 degrees feels amazing at the end of winter but quite deadly after summer? That’s how I feel we view Obama-style pragmatism. Definitely a legacy worth examining and evaluating, but also hard to imagine now the context he was operating in after Bush Jr.

When the fashion mind can grasp and contain the aesthetic possibilities of both @dieworkwear *and* @modsiwW then we’ll start seeing progress in society as a whole. The expansiveness is infinite.
