I discovered this physical publication when I was a freshman in college and it's one of my favorite magazines by far. It has so many interesting essays ranging from tech, linguistics, to personal memoirs-- one of my favorite essays was one about the significance of Italian-American slang in understanding immigrant cultural identity across generations.
It's honestly worth subscribing to (or at least checking out from your local library!).

I mean it still covers literature and pop culture and comics and art in thoughtful ways. And they're back under their old publishers now.

the design, the art, the writing, the classified postings in the back... I became a bit obsessed a few years back and starting searching ebay far and wide to collect issues

Believer rising from the ashes back to near the height of its power is amazing. Artforum still is generally good, tho I'll prob pivot to a different mag once my subscription is up.

I have to disagree with the people who say that we need to “stay” and “fight“ for IG to be a better platform because in actuality, it’s our presence and engagement that gives them data, and therefore money. As long as they have those 2 things, they make their bottom line and won’t really care about its users desires unless they’re making a move for the optics.
If we REALLY want to hold them accountable, we need to impact the money they make, which means permanently deleting or marking your account as inactive & never coming back. They’ll only care if they’re bleeding money— so make them bleed.

Every piece I wear has some sort of sentimental story backed behind it (my bracelets/rings/necklaces/some of my earrings). For me, wearing sentimental jewelry serves 3 purposes:
1) Bringing life to pieces that have been given to me with love
2) Carrying my loved ones wherever I go
3) Prevented me from making impulsive jewelry purchases (because fast fashion jewelry doesn't feel the same way a gift does)
Ig the only exceptions I make in fast fashion jewelry is earrings, but only bc I need boring earrings for corporate-wear lol
