i read a really interesting response to this very question once.

good food is one of the only luxuries millennials can feasibly afford. with student debt, job insecurity, and an increased cost of living millennials can no longer afford to indulge in the past generations luxuries. things like cars, houses, even travel! a good meal is honestly one of the only things we can treat ourselfs to, so shut the fuck up and let us enjoy our fucking food

Canadian retailer pulls 'stolen' sacred Inuit design from stores

Yesterday, we heard from Salome Awa, who discovered that a European fashion label copied the design of a sacred caribou skin parka worn by her shaman ancestor. Now, a Canadian retailer has pulled the same design from their stores.

It’s a sacred Inuit parka that has been copied and sold for big bucks by a European fashion label.

On Wednesday, As It Happens spoke to Salome Awa, the great-granddaughter of the shaman who designed the parka. She says the fashion company KTZ stole the design without her family’s permission.

After our interview aired, we learned of a Canadian retailer that sells the KTZ sweater. The company is called CNTRBND and has stores in Toronto and Vancouver. They were selling the garment for $925 CDN.

We called the high-end retailer and spoke with owner, Christopher Casuga. He told us that he was personally offended when he saw our story. On Thursday, Casuga pulled the sweater from his sales floor and removed it from the company’s website.

He says he didn’t want to sell “anything that insinuates negativity toward native people. We want to make sure we are representing Canada in the best way possible.”

Casuga says he has reached out to KTZ in the U.K. but has not heard a response. The label is still selling the item on their website. So far, KTZ has refused all media requests, including ours.

Wanna make a monster? Take the parts of yourself that make you uncomfortable - your weaknesses, bad thoughts, vanities, and hungers - and pretend they’re across the room. It’s too ugly to be human. It’s too ugly to be you. Children are afraid of the dark because they have nothing real to work with. Adults are afraid of themselves.

A long time ago, when you were a wee thing, you learned something, some way to cope, something that, if you did it, would help you survive. It wasn’t the healthiest thing, it wasn’t gonna get you free, but it was gonna keep you alive. You learned it, at five or six, and it worked, it *did* help you survive. You carried it with you all your life, used it whenever you needed it. It got you out—out of your assbackwards town, away from an abuser, out of range of your mother’s un-love. Or whatever. It worked for you. You’re still here now partly because of this thing that you learned. The thing is, though, at some point you stopped needing it. At some point, you got far enough away, surrounded yourself with people who love you. You survived. And because you survived, you now had a shot at more than just staying alive. You had a shot now at getting free. But that thing that you learned when you were five was not then and is not now designed to help you be free. It is designed only to help you survive. And, in fact, it keeps you from being free. You need to figure out what this thing is and work your ass off to un-learn it. Because the things we learn to do to survive at all costs are not the things that will help us get FREE. Getting free is a whole different journey altogether.

i think i gasped a little when i read this because it’s almost word-for-word my therapist’s explanation of why i learned to be anxious as a child (“if your dad might blow up at any minute then your anxiety protects you”) and why it’s not helping me now (“he’s not here anymore”).

Nigerian suicide bombing leaves at least 32 dead

A deadly suicide bombing Tuesday at an open-air market in Yola, Nigeria, killed at least 32 people and injured dozens more. Blasts rang out just before 8 p.m. local time in the capital city of the state of Adamawa. A terrorist group did not immediately claim responsibility for the attack, but according to Reuters, the attack “bore the hallmarks of militant Islamist group Boko Haram.“ Following the attacks, Facebook took note.

“I was a maître d’ at a restaurant for thirteen years. But one week I got a really bad case of pneumonia that put me in the hospital. While I was lying in that hospital bed, I was thinking about how I really didn’t want to go back to work. Then that motivational speaker came on TV. You know– the one that has all those teeth in his mouth. And he said: ‘Think back to what made you happy when you were young! That’s what you should be doing!’ Well I grew up in the country, and I always had a lot of dogs, so I thought that nothing would make me happier than to be a dog walker. But I knew I needed to distinguish myself. So I decided to make a uniform. I smoked a joint and came up with this outfit. I wanted people to look at me and think: ‘If this man is walking our dog, and there’s some sort of major disaster, he’s going to survive. He’s going to fish for those dogs. He’s going to build a bunker and shelter those dogs until it’s safe to bring them home.’ After I finished the design, I got four of my friends to wear the uniform, and we borrowed all the neighbors’ dogs, and we walked them down 5th avenue while handing out business cards. I got five customers that first day.”
