“BEYOND THE EYES” is born from an idea by Valentina & Riccardo.

The reason why we started taking photographs of our closest friends was to intentionally put them in a playful and spontaneous mood to see what clothes they were willing to remove.The intention was to bring out of them a potential erotic energy that they didn’t think and or feel they had. We fall in love with human bodies because of how fragile they are and because of their marvelous authenticity. We feel that the act of admitting to oneself in a quiet way that one can be at any moment turned on by even the boyfriends and or girlfriends of one’s closest
friends is one of the most dignified expressions of the mystery of this universe. Without physically making love to our subjects, it is our necessity to create a desire of gentle lovemaking for the spectator of our images. In each one of us there is a space which is timeless; a space that can allow us at any moment to completely fall in love with whatever object or being we have in front of us. This is a space we either deny ourselves through predictable concept of what is right and what is wrong. So often we cover up these feelings of wan-
ting to make love in the gentlest way possible with a perfect stranger and or a close friend. Reconnecting with our inner dreamy timelessness can be a way of fighting against the alienation brought about by imposed conditioning and preconceptions.
We find ourselves disgusted by women who express their sense of femininity with a maniacal and vulgar precision. Our muses are women with a profound sense of eroticism void of excessive jewelry and make up and flashy product placement. We adore when a woman wears a pair of jeans, a t-shirt, and without uncomfortable heels. We are fascinated by the duality of the human being. Lately, humans have lost the habit and or pleasure of observing. Our photographs need to express a sort
of nostalgia of getting lost in others without the need to constantly cover everything up with the simple gesture of obsessively controlling cellular telephones. It saddens us that seduction keeps becoming more and more vulgar. We feel that fashion is a lovely source of inspiration, thou-
gh we personally prefer to photograph friends. Models have the habit or necessity to create predictable machine like poses which make us feel uncomfortable. Perhaps this all has to do with dedicating too much time on our cell phones. Perhaps it could help to give oneself the time and space to observe whatever we have in front of us for the sake of allowing ourselves to fall completely in love in any moment of life. Float.

Trump isn't racist at all. He encourages people to immigrate to the US legally so that they can clean the rooms in his fabulous hotels.

does that really belong here??

No the content doesn't, but the headline just sounds trenchant as written.

by which I mean it could be the headline for an onion article in which Hawking is being uncharacteristically trenchant to a humorous degree. and it struck me that way in the context of a news aggregator.

oh yeah that's fair

you can try thinking for yourself

Well, as we're talking about a woman, Sanders supporters are probably threatening to euthanize her as we speak.

unpleasant truths guy gets "friendzoned" a lot I bet

wait, what if the comforting lies guy is lying with his sign too?

maybe his line is so long because word got around that he actually has useful advice

no, unpleasant truths guy made both signs to avoid this problem

(though you will probably ignore the unpleasant truth of that post, too)

me irl

Marketing anything as unpleasant is probably a mistake.

Comforting lies guy has to work overtime and he's not even getting paid by the looks of it. Unpleasant truth guy basically gets to read blogs at his desk all day.
Maybe he should've worn a tie idk

but one is lying on his tax form thereby increasing earnings

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

unpleasant truths guy gets "friendzoned" a lot I bet

that's a lot of jogging

tie in twitter account https://twitter.com/kurtmarkoneill

279 bloops
364 blorps

that's an average of over 3km of jogging per day over a lifetime. If I managed to do that I would totally want it to go on my tombstone.

what Clinton says hasn't necessarily got fuck to do with fuck. There she and her friend Don have common ground.
I'm not saying there aren't areas where he wouldn't be more damaging than she would be.

The AR-15 is rapidly becoming the shining symbol of our glorious freedom to go on a killing rampage against anyone we don't like, including whoever is standing next to them.

http://neil-gaiman.tumblr.com/post/43087620460/i-was-reading-a-book-about-interjections-oddly

I was reading a book (about interjections, oddly enough) yesterday which included the phrase “In these days of political correctness…” talking about no longer making jokes that denigrated people for their culture or for the colour of their skin. And I thought, “That’s not actually anything to do with ‘political correctness’. That’s just treating other people with respect.”

Which made me oddly happy. I started imagining a world in which we replaced the phrase “politically correct” wherever we could with “treating other people with respect”, and it made me smile.

You should try it. It’s peculiarly enlightening.

I know what you’re thinking now. You’re thinking “Oh my god, that’s treating other people with respect gone mad!”

Happy Valentine’s Day.

that seems less trenchant, more Rev JC Flannel style platitudinous waffling
