The first tattoos recorded in history date back to the 5th century B.C., In Greece, prisoners had to be tattooed in an attempt to “brand” them as unfit for society. Hundreds of years later, tattooing was carried over into religion in places like Egypt and Syria. Some of the highest priests and lowest of criminals have had their bodies marked to tell society who they are and their role in the world. Decorative tattoos were and still are frowned upon by the general population. Heavily tattooed individuals evade a corporate lifestyle by settling for individuality.

We love to see our favorite recording artists win, but what we all love most are the red carpet styles. From glammed up pastel palettes to seductive leather looks, the stars showed up and showed out during the 2021 Grammy Awards and I've rounded up my favorite looks. The first star up is Lizzo and her (not one) but two red carpet looks. Lizzo started out wearing a green Balmain dress. The stunning jewels were Bulgari.

For millennia, the world has constructed a narrative for the ideal man. A man who does not question his gender, traditions, religion, etc. If a man wants to be taken seriously he must act the part. If he wants to lead a life of respect and dignity then he would never go against the solid foundations which have been laid out for him by all of our heteronormative bound fathers throughout time. Through the years an exceptional breed of man has been questioning that logic. How so? Dressing, behaving, eating, and just living to their hearts full content. No agenda, no rules except for one, never live miserably. However, the general population striving to be (or be with) the...
Lately, the media has been drowning us in the news of collusion within our government, COVID-19 fatalities & a shameful list of social injustices that keeps growing at an alarming rate. A lot of death and dismay surrounds our narratives. This can put our anxieties in quite a swirl. In a perfect world, we all have the power to end the hate, illness, and violence controlling our existence. Sadly, we can not stop or reverse time with our kind hearts and good intentions.
