Two artists I'm currently obsessed with:

Very Semi Serious, an offbeat documentary about humor, art, and the genius of the New Yorker cartoons.

Mextures and an updated
VSCO Cam.
2013.06.12Kanye West gets the NYT treatment. "I think what Kanye West is going to mean is something similar to what Steve Jobs means. I am undoubtedly, you know, Steve of Internet, downtown, fashion, culture. Period. By a long jump. I honestly feel that because Steve has passed, you know, it's like when Biggie passed and Jay-Z was allowed to become Jay-Z." Wait, what!

2013.06.11Girls, Season 38. "Wow, I couldn't hear that, because my hearing aids are all fucked up from this insane party I went to in Bushwick. But I'm guessing it was super hostile from that ugly pursing thing you did with your lips when you said it." LOLOL
