![]() ![]() ![]() May you write it in beauty as we have told it in beauty."-Zeahley Tso, Chief of the Navajo. Asa Delugie, War Chief of the Mescallero Apaches. There is a golden thread which touches Tollan, The Mighty, and beautiful Tula, while through some of our mothers there is a white thread to the words of The Prophet. There is a thread which runs far to the south where the mountain tops touch the sky and the Thunder Bird moves through the lightning’s. Through the tribes we have captured and with whom we have intermarried there is a red thread which runs back to the Red Land long sunken in the Destruction. Tell the legends so that our young men will realize that the ancestor threads run in many directions. Now we are looking down and our feathers are drooping. When you string them together, remember our great pride. These are our legends told about the campfires on winter's evenings.

In 1969, Easy Rider reaped huge box-office profits with its combination of biker cool, trippy strangeness, counterculture politics, naked chicks and a freak-out soundtrack album tie-in. In his 18th column, Kim uncovers Hex, a 1973 film in the “Weird Hippie Shit” genre starring everyone’s favourite Carradine – Keith, and the one, the only Gary Busey.Ī particular guilty pleasure genre of mine is Weird Hippie Shit cinema. ![]() RT Obscura, the exclusive column by renowned critic Kim Newman, sees the writer plumbing the depths of the RT archive in search of some forgotten gems. ![]() Nina lacour yerba buena6/6/2023 ![]() ![]() The morning Emilie and Sara first meet at Yerba Buena, their connection is immediate. On a whim, she takes a job arranging flowers at the glamorous restaurant Yerba Buena. Across the city, Emilie Dubois is in a holding pattern, yearning for the beauty and community her Creole grandparents cultivated but unable to commit. Years later, in Los Angeles, she is a sought-after bartender, renowned as much for her brilliant cocktails as for the mystery that clings to her. Sara Foster runs away from home at sixteen, leaving behind the girl she once was, capable of trust and intimacy. ![]() “A Carol for our times.” - Harper’s Bazaar “A study of complex, modern love…Expertly illuminates the trauma that Sara and Emilie are both wrestling with, as well as their hope and healing…Lingers like a perfectly mixed cocktail.” - San Francisco Chronicle FROM BESTSELLING AND PRINTZ-AWARD WINNING AUTHOR NINA LACOUR, PERFECT FOR READERS OF WRITERS AND LOVERS ![]() Get the guy by matthew hussey6/6/2023 ![]() If ever there was a person who was the human embodiment of that phrase, it was Natalie.įor a long time, I couldn’t figure out exactly why I found Natalie so sexy. The French have a phrase - “Je ne sais quoi” - which translates to “I don’t know what.” It is generally used to describe someone who has that special “something” that you just can’t put your finger on but is irresistibly appealing. ![]() While she didn’t tick any of the boxes for conventional standards of beauty, she had an incredible presence that was impossible to miss. She also had a head full of frizzy hair - the kind people spent hundreds trying to straighten. Being half-Samoan and half-Caucasian, she had a curvy build that is a far cry from the model-thin figures we often see in ads. It’s worth noting that Natalie doesn’t look anything like what the marketing world tells us sexy should look like. In fact, the mutual friend who introduced us later confessed that Natalie was the only woman she had ever had a crush on too. Sexiness seemed to ooze out of Natalie’s pores and she exuded an energy that was noticeable by everyone in her presence. Whenever I was around Natalie, it was clear that I wasn’t the only one who thought that she was incredibly sexy. It was over 10 years ago but I still remember how electrifying her presence was. ![]() ![]() I’ve only ever been attracted to a woman once. ![]() Stuart little online book6/6/2023 ![]() ![]() When his best friend, a beautiful little bird called Margalo disappears from her nest, Stuart is determined to track her down.

Plans to reintroduce wolves to the national park were hatched in the 40s but it wasn’t until 1995 that a group of Canadian wolves were released in Yellowstone. ![]() One of the world’s first national parks, Yellowstone was supposed to be a wilderness for all, but without wolves – the park’s apex predator – the elk population skyrocketed and the natural ecosystem began to deteriorate. This absence of wolves was felt keenly in Yellowstone National Park, in the American West. By the end of the 19th century, wolves had been hunted, trapped and poisoned into extinction in most of the lower 48 states. When the Mayflower pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock in 1620, there were two million wolves on the North American continent. ![]() ![]() ![]() The New Internationalist Magazine was just starting at the time, and Putney appreciated the opportunity it gave her to interact with idealistic designers and artists.

The author was living in Oxford with a friend when she landed the position. ![]() Putney worked for The New Internationalist Magazine (London) as an art editor. At the time, she had no intention of pursuing writing as a career, so she was more than happy to dedicate her life to design. Putney doesn’t regret the decision because she fell in love with design. But then the author met an industrial design student that was seemingly having more fun than her, so she changed majors. ![]() She pursued the subject because she loved reading. ![]() Deathless by Catherynne M.
