I like the word sensibility, I’ve started using it instead of taste when I’m trying to tap into something de... See more
Haley Nahman • #197: What is "personal style"?
The declining quality, overwhelmed customer service, and constant drops of “limited edition” “sustainable” clothing feel like textbook results of prioritizing profit.

3-2-1: How to deal with a changing world and the wonders of ordinary life
I have always loved and learned from @wendymac’s work. In the very early days of the pandemic, she was one of the first artists to offer free virtual daily drawing practice to everyone — especially kids — sheltered in place. Posting her drawing practice as a small act of seeing. It’s been a horrific week plus. As a generous host, to practice protection as well as connection, I’m turning the comments off for a period. Social media is creating even more separation. One antidote to horror is connection. Sending love. Thank you, @wendymac for reminding us to see each other. Not what we expect to see. But the stranger in front of us. Via @nytopinion
