Oxford Dictionary’s word of the year? Brain rot. Are you holding space for the chip shop diva? What about the solo polyamorous hijabi amputee? Can you define the word “skibidi”? Or know who the Rizzler is? Congrats, you’ve probably got brain rot. According to the University of Oxford, the phrase’s usage increased 230% in the past year, and is defined as “the supposed deterioration of a person’s mental or intellectual state, especially viewed as a result of overconsumption of material (now particularly online content) considered to be trivial or unchallenging.” The phrase feels like a fitting diagnosis and summary of a year spent in global turmoil, constantly glued to our phones.
Supreme x Frank Frazetta is for the warlocks, warrior women and everyone in between. The streetwear label’s latest apparel drop celebrates the influential science fiction and fantasy illustrator. The drop comes alongside a special Frazetta-inspired animation soundtracked by i-D fave Eartheater’s 2018 track “Trespasses”. Check out the video below.
NewJeans are planning to leave their label. Back in April, a very messy (and very public) feud broke out between the K-pop band, their parent company Hybe and their label Ador as a result of the label’s dropping of their CEO Min Hee-jin, the “mother” of the band. The long and short of it is: Ador thinks Min was trying to take “full control” of the label, backing Min into a corner and ultimately leading her to resign from both companies. Now, NewJeans wants out. In an emergency press meeting called yesterday, the band said that the company’s behaviour is “not the type of work ethic [they] respect, or want to be a part of,” announcing their intention to terminate their contract with Ador effective from midnight KST on 29 November.
