There was a sweet magazine shop big little news that TRAGICALLY closed, that’s where I used to go to find physical magazines. If you have any interest in fashion, Viscose journal is great.
that’s so sad! I haven’t found a dedicated spot, but there is actually a great little magazine selection at the central co-op in cap hill. but I think they come from some mysterious benefactor bc the cashiers don’t seem to know much about them
Viscose is a fashion mag but all about the actual theory of fashion, fashion culture, its history etc. So sick! Their latest issue was all about scent with a cover that can be cut out into the shape of a box. zweikommasieben is a swedish music magazine as far as music mags go this one is the best best best. Also visually stunning.
Are the biggest fashion mags the only ones left, like Vogue? I miss Entertainment Weekly, and Consumer Reports, and the days of getting 3 different teen magazines
🎪 Cabana (amazing interiors + each issue comes covered in dead stock fabric from a luxury brand)
🏸 racquet mag (explores the niche of tennis and other racquet sports)
🪄 a magazine curated by (Dan thawley is my idol!!!)
🪆 the gentlewoman (Penny Martin is also my idol)
🌸 BLUMENHAUS (deserves its own rec tbh— the most gorgeous large-format mag all about flowers, florals, plants, and gardening)
Tell them to clear a day, plan out a nice (surprise) day together, drive them around and pay for everything. This doesn’t have to be fancy or expensive you can take them to get pie and sit on a nice rock to watch the sunset. Frankly a lot of people (esp people that have had a lifetime to gather things) don’t need more shit, and the best gift to give is novelty and a deepening of the relationship.
When I worked for a crisis line the busiest hours were 10-6. Thinking about it, a lot of grief in my life would have been avoided if I was just asleep.
