4 days ago | i-d.co | Douglas Greenwood

Most people ease their way into a new job, but for her film debut, the musical provocateur Shygirl had a different idea. Last summer, she signed on to Getaway, an enticing, full-frontal short film about a man whose heartbreak-healing venture into nature intersects with a sexual awakening. Adopting her government name, Blane Muise, she’s both an executive producer and one of its lead stars.
Camille Couldn't Help But Wonder...

My writer’s block has kicked my ass something terrible, and I can’t shake it. My chapter about dating is overdue, and I am CHOOsing to ignore the familiar clinch of panic coursing through my body because I have an early train to catch. Running away from work commitments is my preferred type of cardio, and HBO has kindly asked if I’ll join them for dinner in Paris to celebrate season 3 of And Just Like That…—the internet’s most unhinged reboot (complimentary).
Not Just a Brand-IWANNABANGKOK Is a Belief System

1 week ago | i-d.co | Alex Kessler

The first thing you see when you step inside IWANNABANGKOK’s flagship store in Si Lom is a towering golden sculpture of an alien goddess with three boobs, shiny skin, and a smug expression like she knows something about your fate. She’s wearing a gold bikini—obviously—and surrounded by coins, plastic pigeons, and a powder pink three-piece cake offering that looks like, well, three more boobs. She looks serene. Unbothered. Worshipped.

Sauna Raves Are Coming to London

1 week ago | i-d.co | Arielle Domb

It is a truth universally acknowledged that the fewer clothes worn at a party, the more fun the party will be. In New York City, this is common lore. Since the pandemic, Big Apple parties have been nakeder than ever, with a growing number of steamy soirées taking place in bathhouses, saunas, and spas. Tech bros are starting their mornings dancing in saunas in Manhattan, literary circles are shvitzing at Wall Street Bath, while techno-heads are sweating it out Bacchanalian raves in Brooklyn banyas.
Touching Grass In The Desert With Vans’ Curren Caples

1 week ago | i-d.co | Aemilia Madden

I arrive in Palm Springs to the raging heat of the desert. The temperature is 85 degrees Fahrenheit, the sky is eye-squintingly sunny, and the allergies that have been plaguing me for weeks in New York have miraculously disappeared. This town is a haven for retirees, bachelorette parties, post-Coachella hangovers, and now me. In fact, I’m here to mingle with a roving pack of skateboarders to get a little taste of how the other half (as in people untethered to desk jobs) live.
How I Became a Labubu Mother Overnight

I didn’t mean to become a mother. But here we are. It was a Tuesday afternoon in Chiang Mai, a city that smells like grilled pork, eucalyptus, and my unresolved childhood trauma. I was home again—half from here and raised here, now floating through my mom’s house like an Airbnb guest who occasionally weeps in the shower. The plan was to decompress and heal. Instead, I became a plush toy parent with a rapidly growing emotional support army.

Back in 2004, the director Shih-Ching Tsou linked up with her friend and collaborator—a young Sean Baker—to make a movie together. It was called Take Out, and followed the life of an undocumented Chinese immigrant working as a takeaway deliveryman in New York City.
