Knotted Half-Shirts and Bare Midriffs


I almost never watch the NFL. Once upon a time, I followed the Broncos, largely because my friends did…but other interests took over. Every now and then, I check out a few NFL clips on YouTube, not so much of American football but of the gyrating hips of the league's scantily clad, fresh-faced cheerleaders.

The other night, I watched Daughters of the Sexual Revolution: The Untold Story of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. It tells the story of Texas legend Suzanne Mitchell, who created the Cowboys cheer squad, as we know it today. I liked it. It's frisky and informative. I think I have a non-sexual crush on Dana Adam Shapiro. He makes films like I make pancakes.

Irene Saputra's Colorful Stitched Pieces

Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her.  Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

Fly Through Victoria Falls

Watching this video makes me feel like a tiny and trivial organism in the face of nature's relentless power.
