[moonlitpoems]

it all comes down to you, every single time. i never thought i would be the one to be affected by you, because i figured i would be used to it by the time you left my life. but here i am, and since we haven't spoken in 6 months, our past is all i have to focus on. i am standoffish, and i don't let people into my life, and i hear your voice in my head when i meet new people- judging them. i always thought i could be better than you, that i knew who i didn't want to be so i could be better. but it all comes down to you. you are the reason i can't get close to people. you are the reason i am so cold. you are the reason that i am simultaneously terrified of commitment and being left alone. thanks to you, i am no longer worried about ending up with someone like you- i'm also worried about becoming you.

[102319 - VOGUE] Seoul Fashion Week Was Missing Some Of The City’s Finest Exports

The brands that are truly making waves in the cooler corners of Seoul are nowhere to be seen around the city’s fashion week, says Vogue’s fashion critic Anders Christian Madsen.

News that G-Dragon’s discharge from military service is now a matter of days away wasn’t just the hot topic of last week’s fashion shows in Seoul for obvious reasons. Next to being one of the biggest pop idols on the planet, GD – as the kids call him – represents the elusive South Korean cool factor the country’s fashion industry is so crucially trying to market. Watching the shows at Seoul Fashion Week, it’s apparent how much the city’s vast but emerging designer landscape needs to draw on the effortless millennial whispering G-Dragon masters so eloquently. His clothing label PeaceMinusOne casually releases t-shirt drops and Converse All-Star collaborations with superior insight into what makes the young generations swoon. It’s an Off-White-esque approach to the new fashion market that each of the infinite young brands in Seoul wants to mimic, but which few – if any – on the official show schedule seem to get right.

I far from attended all of the hourly shows that fill said schedule for six days, some of which even group designers back-to-back in a tent dedicated to emerging talent. But as something of a veteran at Seoul Fashion Week, it became apparent to me this season how fundamental it is that this platform restructures its approach and creates a more intimate, more exclusive and more curated pedestal for its fashion export. While labels like D-Antidote, Youser andMünn have become recognisable names for those in-the-know outside of the South Korean borders, the brands that are truly making waves in the cooler corners of Seoul are nowhere to be seen around the city’s fashion week.

Notably missing are This Is Never That, a brand that so perfectly captures the current appetite for bringing performance wear into the urban wardrobe, and LMC (Lost Management Cities), which makes the kind of normcore sportswear and gritty stylised campaign films that make Gen Z tick. Where is KB Lee aka Fakesickness? And Wooyoungmi, a highly established brand that shows in Paris and should be represented in its hometown, too? Where is Juun.J?

Most loud in its absence was of course PeaceMinusOne, which should be the crown of Seoul Fashion Week’s USP. You could compare it to the London men’s shows without A-Cold-Wall, or even the London women’s shows without Victoria Beckham.

Seoul Fashion Week does a lot to nurture emerging talent: alongside that Generation Next tent within the soul-destroying Zaha Hadid spaceship – the Dongdaemun Design Plaza – that hosts fashion week, which desperately needs to use locations around the city instead, there are mentoring schemes in place to further the development of new designers. But in order to motivate the talent graduating from the city’s colleges, Seoul Fashion Week needs to elevate itself to an aspirational level. For international visitors and the local industry alike, this platform has to showcase the coolest, most esoteric brands, models, artists and musicians that South Korea has to offer. Currently, they are MIA; for that same lack of cool factor.

In that sense, it was curious to see how the newest names on the official schedule all seemed to be boding an impending apocalypse. Seokwoon Yoon played dystopian techno, showed tracksuits almost identical to Balenciaga’s, and wrote “Nothing Inside” on clothes including a garment worn as a dress. Sling Stone, another young label, seemed to be imagining a dystopian Lord of the Fliesscenario, with all the single black feather headpieces and anarchic hacked-up tailoring and sportswear that notion entailed. They even played a painful piano version of Michael Jackson’s “Bad”.

The designer Dozoh presented a collection that felt like an off-limits government UFO facility with test lab utility wear, the word “Stranger” and an ID number sprawled across the back of a trench coat. And in the Young Talents Show, one debuting designer came out wearing a t-shirt that read “Don’t Burn Our Future”. It was no doubt a political or climate-centric statement, but it doubled as a message to this local industry that a serious makeover is called for. Seoul has the cool factor. It just needs to put it into play.

Medical pot on campus: Colleges say no and face lawsuits

“The legal challenges are coming from students studying nursing and other medical specialties who, under school policies, must undergo drug testing.   Thirty-three states and Washington, D.C., allow medical marijuana, and 11 states and Washington, D.C., have legalized recreational marijuana, creating clashes with federal law that have been playing out in courts, mostly in employment cases that have had mixed results for medical pot.There don't appear to be efforts by recreational marijuana users to challenge college drug policies, observers say. That's likely because states limit recreational use to people 21 and older, excluding most college students, and because there haven't been successful legal challenges to campus alcohol policies even though state laws allow people 21 and over to drink, they say.

The lawsuits have the potential to set legal precedents on the use of medical marijuana at colleges.”
