Heroin Chic

  Term “heroin chic” has been popular in 90s in the world of fashion. It describe person who is tall, very thin, has pale skin and dark circles under eyes. It appeared after death from overdosed of famous fashion photographer. He was photographing very thin models. In this time heroin and other opioids was a huge problem.  Gia Carangi was very popular this time supermodel. She was heroin user and she was also an icon of heroin chic. It shows what lifestyle was promoted that time. This month New York Post published article with headline: “Bye-bye booty: Heroin chic is back”. People are shocked that today someone is still promoting this kind of lifestyle and they are saying: “our bodies are not trends!” I’m glad that society has opened their eyes and nowadays "body positive" movement is promote. It's so strange to me that in past people glorified that unhealthy shape of body.  source:  https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2022/nov/20/heroin-chic-fashion-skinny-worship

Ocean in Molong

  Molong is a rural town in Australia. Few days ago rain and storms caused huge damage to this city. Size of flood was compared to the ocean.   Flood destroyed people’s houses, business, cars. Almost everything. People got trapped in their homes. Some of them started to panic. Owner of the hotel said that this is miracle that no one got killed. But almost every inhabitant of this city is suffering because of this natural disaster. Similar flood happened there in 2005. Citizens are saying that calamity this year is even worse and they are scared if they could handle this again. All natural disasters shows us how helpless people are and huge power of nature. Mother Earth tells us that we are 100% dependent on her. source:  https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2022/nov/14/like-an-ocean-molong-devastated-by-deluge-with-more-nsw-towns-hit-with-fresh-flooding
