ASMR

It stands for Autonomous sensory meridian response.  It's typically a mundane and repeating (and often very quiet) sound.

I read a gizmodo article on it, and it featured this video of a woman playing with some sort of fluffy playdoh, which eventually turns into a bubbling video when she adds vinegar.  Both the whispering and the liquid bubbling is pretty soothing (as well as her whispering voice)

But then she also has this 360 VR video:

Which in of itself is interesting, but also at about 7 minutes in she begins brushing the camera with a makeup brush.. Which if you use your imagination can become a VR makeup experience.  It's a shame it isn't a true split lens video you can use google cardboard with so it really feels real.

Neverending transition

I always thought Atreyu from neverening story looked a little girly with his longer hair and boyish face.  What if the princess could no longer perform her duties, would he have to fill in?





Will Smith's son Jaden is new face of Louis Vuitton WOMENSWEAR

Apparently he's not transgender, he's gender fluid.  So far I can't find any photos of him crossdressed, he just likes wearing skirts and the occasional bow in his hair.  Still, committing to being the face of a female clothing line is pretty bold and something tells me there's more to this story.



I say he should go all out at least for one photoshoot
