Hello Kitty!!



Hello Kitty (ハローキティ Harō Kiti?)[1], is a fictional character produced by theJapanese company Sanrio, first designed by Yuko Shimizu. The character is a staple of the kawaii segment of Japanese popular culture.[2] The character is portrayed as a female white Japanese bobtail cat with a red bow. The character's first appearance on an item, a vinyl coin purse, was introduced in Japan in 1975 and brought to the United States in 1976.[3][4] This debut came under the Sanrio company lineup, where her various products are still developed and sold.
The Hello Kitty trademark has since spread globally and developed licensing arrangements worth more than $1 billion annually.[5] Examples of products depicting the character include dolls, stickers, greeting cards, clothes, accessories, school supplies, dishes and home appliances.[6] Her fame as a recurring Sanrio character has led to the creation of two officially licensed Hello Kitty theme parks, Harmonyland and the indoor Sanrio Puroland.

in nature...






this is a really traditional style nature documentary that happens to focus on the gay life of many different species: birds that only mix up the sexes for the purposes of egg fertilization but couple in same-sex pairs, pan-sexual monkeys who resolve aggression with coitus between all any which way followed by sharing of whatever food/territory/prize object was in dispute being two of the most memorable instances... I would love to see this again.

In fact, I demand to see it again!

oh I haven't said enough its from Australia or new zealand or somewhere but is not at all goofy in style a la say mark lewis films, but the revelations laid out are jaw droppingly,..funny actually really. Unless I suppose you're scandalized in which case you will want to preach at the creatures.

a little bit of art fashion...(2)




The continually changing fashions of the West have been generally unparalleled either in antiquity or in the other great civilizations of the world until recent decades. Early Western travellers, whether to Persia, Turkey, Japan or China frequently remark on the absence of changes in fashion there, and observers from these other cultures comment on the unseemly pace of Western fashion, which many felt suggested an instability and lack of order in Western culture. The Japanese Shogun's secretary boasted (not completely accurately) to a Spanish visitor in 1609 that Japanese clothing had not changed in over a thousand years.[2] However in Ming China, for example, there is considerable evidence for rapidly changing fashions in Chinese clothing.
