“You might find yourself compelled, upon first coming into contact with Milk Fed, the junior clothing line designed by Sofia Coppola, to dismiss the range as exclusive and ultra-hip; the type of line that is worn only by young private schoolgirls from Manhattan who are in the know.

You might be a little annoyed by the fact that Milk Fed doesn’t seem to both itself with advertising or with any consideration of marketing to your tastes, or even with paying attention to any of the rules that you’ve come to associate with the branding of new fashion.”

You know, I could be like 80% of you and ask ChatGPT to “make the intro for my new Substack series called “analyzing” that will be just me ranting and showing my elaborate research of topics i love and care about very much”,but that would spoil the fun, wouldn’t it?

I’m very obsessed with some particular things that happened (not only in the 90s, but mostly in the 90s) in pop culture, and I guess this is my way of validating myself. You must read it. Anyway,

here’s me analyzing milk fed by Sofia Coppola.


One of my closest friends is throwing a karaoke party this Saturday….

and, as one naturally does, you’re kind of obligated to wear a wig. Like, a serious wig. Not the kind of wig your uncle uses cause he’s balding.

I immediately thought about a pink bob wig. The pink bob is a cult classic, but before it consolidated itself into the modern woman’s “I’M DIFFERENT! I AM DRUNK AND IN A WIG AND IT IS A PINK BOB.”, it probably was just a wig sitting in Sofia Coppola’s messy office.
