Shamrocking
Americans are trying to make #Shamrocking a ’thing’.
Hey America? Fuck you.
Also, while we’re on the subject, the first one of you sons of bitches to call it “St. Patty’s Day” is getting punched in the dick.

Pristine Convenience
# Mar 6, 2012“I fantasize about a massive, pristine convenience. Brilliant gold taps, virginal white marble, a seat carved from ebony, a cistern full of Chanel Number 5, and a flunky handing me pieces of raw silk toilet roll. But under the circumstances I’ll settle for anywhere.”
Soviet Ruins
I first heard about the Buzludzha monument (pronounced Buz’ol’ja) last summer when I was attending a photo festival in Bulgaria. Alongside me judging a photography competition was Alexander Ivanov, a Bulgarian photographer who had gained national notoriety after spending the last 10 years shooting ‘Bulgaria from the Air’. Back then he showed me some pictures of what looked to me like a cross between a flying saucer and Doctor Evil’s hideout perched atop a glorious mountain range.
I love that we live in a world where a place like this actually exists. And has been allowed to go to ruin, making it infinitely more dramatic-looking. I couldn’t even decide which picture to post, they’re all so amazing. Just stop whatever you’re doing now and check them all out.
