Sorry but the older I get the more I realize that this advice is absolutely correct. Just replace Tarantino with cold emailing about 100 indie directors/producers/crew members and your chances of just getting on set aren't that bad! You have to ask. Always ask.
parents told me i should email Tarantino and ask to work on his sets for a film job. "even if you're just bringing people their coffee, it's a way in!"
This is not good. The world needs less romance. Less love.
It needs to celebrate couples who are together but do not love each other. This is the foundation humanity was built on. Love has always been rare. It cannot be the norm. Or else the world will drastically shrink
Longform is crazy bc we still read longform from 3,000 years ago. The skill ceiling on essay thinkbro pieces is astronomical. One good essay and you go down in history. Vs 50 years of busting yo ass building a company just to get a footnote
@joeybtoonz Haven't sat through snarky elder milennial humour in years. Not since early YouTube. I'm not even a fan of Jaden Smith, but the commentary is ear grating
Fashion was never a male thing. Men have always wore a uniform. Here it was a suit for everyday life. Before that a tailcoat, a justaucorp, doublet, tunic. Or they wore a uniform for their occuptation.
The male uniform makes sense. It looks good in public. the top matches the bottom. It can be worn in any climate. It requires no cognitive energy to figure out what you're going to wear every day.
Now the uniform doesn't exist. We expect men to dress on their own. So 90 percent focus on comfort and dress badly. 10 percent are dandies who think about what to wear every day.
So it's an uglier world for all of us because the male uniform went away
