68 Ridiculous Fashion Fails From The “It’s Called FaSHEIN Sweaty” Group (New Pics)

It's 2024, and the capitalist overabundance of things doesn't seem like it will go away anytime soon. One of the best examples of this is fast fashion. It seems that no matter how much awareness and how many sustainable fashion bloggers are out there, they're still outweighed by the SHEIN haul girlies on YouTube and TikTok.You might ask yourself: 'Why are brands like SHEIN, AliExpress, etc. still alive?' I'd say their only function is to fuel groups like this. The Facebook page "It's Called FaSHEIN Sweaty" dedicates its…

‘I dreamed of blocky pixels’: the strange, sweaty, sociable early days of gaming – in pictures | Games

Today it is trivially easy to play games on a computer, games console or phone with your friends over the internet. But before the wide availability of high-speed internet, things were more complicated.In the 1990s and early 2000s, 3D graphics in video games were becoming more and more complex, but the low network speeds of the period meant that these games, unlike slower-paced and less graphically intensive strategy games, were nearly unplayable over an internet connection.

Pornomelancholia review – sorrows of the sweaty, permanently aroused sex influencer | Film

Lalo (Lalo Santos) is a sex influencer and porn star, and his job is to present his life as one long, hard, sweaty state of permanent arousal. To follow his various accounts online is to imagine a world simmering with constant sexual potential, always ready to boil over into hardcore scenarios, perhaps even involving you, his loyal follower. But even if the title of the film hasn’t clued you into the fact that Argentinian director Manuel Abramovich’s docudrama is not an enthusiastic commercial for this lifestyle, the…

Kali Uchis: Orquídeas review – swaggering, sweaty Latinx party | Pop and rock

Kali Uchis’s last outing, 2023’s dreamy, romantic Red Moon in Venus, earned the supple-voiced Colombian-American bouquets of praise.

Buying a game controller on Black Friday? Don’t forget this must-have accessory for sweaty gamers

SCUF Every competitive gamer knows that, sometimes, you’re only as good as your gear. I personally use third-party controllers for every platform I game on — I use a Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma Pro when I need a controller for PC gaming, a wireless Scuf Instinct Pro controller for Xbox marathons on the couch, and a PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller for Switch. Improved ergonomics on all of these controllers make for overall comfier gaming (and they look a lot cooler than first-party controllers too). But lately, I’ve…

These $130 bone conduction headphones handle sweaty runs, and replaced my Shokz

Jack Wallen/ZDNETI've been using Shokz bone-conducting headphonesZDNET RECOMMENDS Mojawa Run Plus headphones Sweat-proof and sounding great, these bone-conducting headphones will go the distance for you and then some. The first runI'm not going to lie. The first run wasn't exactly a spectacular outing. However, the initial impression of the hardware itself was impressive. One complaint I've had (for the longest time) about the Shokz headphones: The button to pause and skip songs is tiny. Even worse, it can be

Alison Goldfrapp: ‘I like the intensity of a sweaty club’ | Music

It is fair to say Alison Goldfrapp has a complicated relationship with fame. In 2000, around the time of Felt Mountain, her and musical partner Will Gregory’s bewitching debut album as Goldfrapp, she returned home from a full day of interviews “crying and thinking: ‘What the fuck.’ No one had ever told us what an interview might entail,” she recalls now.Later, as the duo’s success ramped up with 2005’s Grammy-nominated, million-selling opus Supernature – an album whose sultry, glam-adjacent electropop would influence…
