Recommended Posts

There's a pretty funny article on today's NY Times about the skinny boy model epidemic.

Once the Hedi Slimanization got started, all anyone wanted to cast was the scrawny kid who looked like he got sand kicked in his face.

...the idea of bulking up now seems retro when musicians and taste arbiters like Devendra Banhart boast of having starved themselves in order to look good in clothes.
Banhart's a "taste arbiter"? What the hell.
