Pinko Magazine Hedonism + Activism

This video is good: an essay by Dinelle Lucchesi …

Did I say essay? I meant list. I’m too busy drinking a vitamin water, coveting coffee and feeling paranoid someone will notice my jeans are from The Gap. I can’t believe I just publicized that. Maybe instead of coffee I’ll have a kombucha. Anyways, when I said inner monologue, I meant list.

1.) It starts with the alphabet. I’m pro education

2.) The plastic bag with a line through it looks like Dolly Parton’s sports bra. I’m pro bras. You should be too.

3.) The bright colors, fast frame switches and house-ish music makes me feel ecstatic.

4.) Speaking of raves, this video is about San Francisco. Where there are a lot of sexy people who ride bikes to save the planet-making them athletic and green. Plus they aren’t weighed down by plastic bags full of useless material goods…(i need a new pen cozy…)

5.) This video encourages people to get HOT TOTES. How many times have you seen a person, decided they were hot, then seen them weighed down with Target Bags and non-reusable water bottles, then been depressed because you’re going to die alone?

6.) Brings me to my next point: Cute accessories will get you dates, creating an environmentalist opportunity: Nothing says save the planet like using responsible birth control methods.

7.) The reusable bag takes off the pressure to be a conscious consumer by allowing you to be conscious about how you carry what you consume!

OMG. Totes. Bags.
