Will 🇺🇦 Absolute Shower 🇺🇦

As ever, the best answer to those Anglo pundits complaining that Macron doesn’t accede at all times to the NFP is Mélenchon’s words.

Isn't that literally that it's winter so there are many, many fewer?

I'll say I'm not sure any of the big houses have someone who can *really* cut in place any more. So, so much reliant on drape-and-embellish, or completely astonishing craft techniques. Jonathan Anderson can cut but basically mostly doesn't? And Balenciaga with PPP aren't showing couture yet.

Surprisingly, with the very lovely if not quite *there yet* haute couture debuts at Dior and Chanel, I've decided Valentino was my favourite of the week. A first and welcome move, clear homage to the Pier Paolo Piccioli in the colour stories of some of the frocks.

For b) it's actually always clear: he is the least good looking person in the picture

Honestly some people you look at the pictures they've chosen and you think "you want to be rejected"

The technical term is now an Aellagram actually

Fuck that's an exceptionally low number of Tinder matches tho

I bloody love Rhys Thomas’ output, in particular this all-time classic:

It can be really hard to escape that kind of background

Proud to say that my father was the first person in his family not to go to university

Eye popping isn't it

Oh no him I mean. Bet he can't be stopped

Can and sadly will...

Ha!

Celibacy taught me I’m too clever to find love Before my sex hiatus, I prioritised physical chemistry over emotional intellect. Now, it feels impossible to meet someone with both

This is marvellous. He's even worse than the headline might make you think (gift link)
