“Nina Hagen is at once the most outlandish of rock clowns and the most intensely committed and flaked-out female pop visionary since Patti Smith herself.”

/ From Tim Holmes’ review of the album Nina Hagen in Ekstasy (1985) in Rolling Stone /

Released forty years ago this month (February 1985) by CBS records: Nina Hagen in Ekstasy, the berserk German punk diva’s third solo studio album. Don’t compare it to Hagen’s earlier futuristic avant-garde science fiction tour de force Nunsexmonkrock (1982) and Ekstasy is a blast on its own terms (and it’s been a perennial favourite of mine since I was a teenager). The cover depicts Hagen as a punk rock Jayne Mansfield complete with shocking fuchsia hair extensions. The music inside more than lives up to this persona (aptly described by The Village Voice’s Evelyn McDonnell as “extraterrestrial demon-child”): it’s an anything goes explosion of lurid maximalist bad taste, gleefully throwing heavy metal, punk, psychedelia (she covers “Spirit in the Sky” by Norman Greenbaum), hip hop, reggae and dance music into the mix. As ever, Hagen’s lyrics offer her crackpot ruminations on religion, spirituality, UFOs and politics (especially Russian politics). Never one for false modesty, on “Prima Nina in Ekstasy" Hagen declares, “I love myself and I know who I am / Don't you be afraid, doc / I'm the queen of punk rock …” “Universal Radio” is one of the catchiest things she ever did. Her version of “My Way” matches Sid Vicious’ rendition for ferocity. Growling “Go down on your knees and pray for peace …” on “The Lord’s Prayer”, Hagen seemingly channels Linda Blair in The Exorcist. And her repeated references to “ekstasy” perhaps hint at what she was dabbling in at the time. To be fair, CBS gave the album a major push: did they think Hagen could be their equivalent to Cyndi Lauper or Madonna? As Trouser Press’ critic concluded, “Hagen’s rampant individuality almost precludes mass comprehension, let alone full-scale popularity.”

i didn’t really expect one of the main storylines of the film to be “ken discovers horses and the patriarchy” but that was an EXCELLENT movie

Something really stupid I started doing in my “manic pixie dream boy” phase that I never stopped doing was drawing on my bruises pftttt

I bruise so easily and draw little stars in moons on them it’s actually really cute and endearing and definetly not cringe right guys?

R-right guys?? Uh guys? Hey?

I AM NOT THE TARGET AUDIENCE: PART 3

From Giuliano Calza CGDS runway show in Milan 2022/2023. The fashion outlets seem hesitant to actually criticize runway show. So when Vogue described “Calza’s construction is middling at best” - that says a lot.

These look like the Yeti from a Doctor Who episode.

These outfits look like they were designed for villain’s in Sony’s Spider-Man spinoff.

This outfit was described by Vogue as:

“The surreal piece was a shocking pink dress made of hair extensions in collaboration with Charlie Le Mindu.”

I did like these two…

Maggot is such a fun name for a durge, anything interesting about her?

Not sure how you define interesting but I'll happily share more about her!!

She's a half-wood elf Circle of Spores druid with a dabbling in monk (haven't decided the level split yet tbh). For the most part she embraces the Urge, but she prefers to give everyone a fighting chance - she tried very hard to convince the tieflings to leave the grove before Minthara and the goblins arrived, but ultimately let them stay and get slaughtered.

Speaking of Minthara, they absolutely fucked after the goblin party (I may or may not be writing my own version of that scene because i was deeply disappointed by the lack of whips chains etc involved). And then Maggot took great pleasure in watching her get tortured at Moonrise before saving her <3

The most recent escapade has been facing down Thisobald Thorm, who she managed to both outdrink and impress with her escapades despite having a -1 to charisma. Also I think I killed Isobel on accident even tho I meant to keep her alive bc darkness & death is more meaningful when a sliver of hope exists to dangle in front of you :(

I got rid of my lash extensions because they’re too expensive and at first I thought I looked like a naked rat but the longer I don’t have them the more I like my bare face
