Fortunately I've been able to successfully avoid the boring stuff thus far because people keep putting this kind of stuff in my line of vision:
Johnny from the video by NAFA,
"Johnny Weir and His Love for Fur,"
filmed at the Adrienne Landau show during NYFW.
Thank you to Ira Lisovskaya for her beautiful screencaps
Won't you support me in my completely lackluster celebration of avoidance behavior by disinterestedly enjoying the video with me?
And then of course for further random languid distraction, there was Johnny's weekend, which thankfully was documented extensively via twitpics from Chris Benz (original photos are here, here, and here). Chris' fab hair also managed to rouse me from my ennui for a millisecond.
The next day Johnny found himself--as would most people who had spent the previous evening having way too much
The "Родина-мать зовёт!" statue
("The Motherland Calls!") in Volgograd.
At first I was like, "Eh, yeah, so she seems
kinda tall whatever ..." --- until I noticed
the teensy tiny people at her feet. OMG.
Which reminds me: There's nothing like yet another Russian photo gallery from the Mishin Jubilee to break through even an extreme who-gives-a-f*ck-Imma-just-lie-here-in-my-own-desolation-and-wait-for-someone-to-bring-me-a-Starbucks-or-not-I-really-don't-care-well-actually-that-sounds-kind-of-good-now-that-you-mention-it... attitude. Many thanks to the lovely Natasha Ponarina and her gallery for bringing us gorgeous pick-me-up pics like this:
And this:
And this. Which I leave you with, macroed here in honor of Johnny's Saturday-shopping attitude and my current perspective on everything:
(I actually misread his tweet as "mescaline" at first glance, which broke through my world-weariness enough to completely crack me up: "Damn. They just have everything in Jersey, don't they? Right there in plain sight at the grocery store." I don't think they have either mescaline or mesclun at the stores near me ...)
