By thinking of clothes as cultural language, Kermit is able to put together cooler outfits. Here, he's channeling 1980s Miami Vice energy with a lightweight jacket, pink mock neck, striped pants, white horsebit loafers, and giant sunglasses.
11. And the risk is not equal – in Mobile, AL, we show how flooding is a matter of environmental injustice. As a recent city resilience report puts it, “People of color are more likely to experience flooding” in Mobile.

ladies, please do not smear queso all over your body instead of wearing regular clothes. this will make me want to take a tortilla chip and mmm, yes, you won't miss just a little bit, but now my wife is yelling at me, she says to scrape off a little bit for her, she loves queso

The main thing that you need to understand AL Republicans is the phrase “unintended consequences.” If you try to tell them about the consequences, you’re part of the woke mob regardless of how conservative you are.

Quick coverage of yesterday’s pro-Palestinian demonstrations at the University of North Carolina for NYT.
Peaceful protests aren’t harmful, right? Until they threaten to dethrone the people who think they are in charge. That’s when they send in violent hordes like this one. But these are OUR streets and OUR schools and OUR resources, and there are more of us than there are of them

These past three years, I’ve had the privilege to work with and learn from some of the most passionate and brilliant public servants in Washington state. Here's a look back on some of my favorite things we made together:

Thanks for making this so fun. Thanks for all the replies. I laughed at a lot of them. I was moved by some of them. And a few of them just straight up concerned me (again the cannibalism thing). You all are great. I'll miss you. And remember: Don't set the state on fire. 🫡

Finally, Kermit knows that dinner suits (aka tuxedos) should be worn with black bow ties made from the same material as the jacket's facings, not long black ties, which should be reserved for business meetings, court appearances, and funerals.
Again, the same issue here. Piers is wearing generic clothes (no cultural message, lack of a finishing layer, visually uninteresting). Kermit improves on this by aligning the materials (chambray with denim) and using an open shirt as a lightweight layer. Has a workwear vibe.
Kermit wears a similar outfit but employs a field parka, a Fair Isle knit, and a scarf. The coat gives him a distinctive silhouette. The sweater is visually more interesting. All the elements in the outfit make sense in terms of weather and cultural language.
You can see how the same language is channeled in Aime Leon Dore's spring/ summer lookbook. The outfit on the right is a little better because the man is wearing a jacket (outfits often need a finishing layer). But perhaps Kermit was hot that day.
Compare these two outfits. Piers' black polo with checked knee-length shorts and bad sneakers says nothing. But Kermit's cargo shorts with an Aloha shirt, fishing bag, and straw hat says: "I'm a mid-century sportsman on vacation."
By thinking of clothes as cultural language, Kermit is able to put together cooler outfits. Here, he's channeling 1980s Miami Vice energy with a lightweight jacket, pink mock neck, striped pants, white horsebit loafers, and giant sunglasses.
Men often struggle with this because their identity may be rooted in just being a "normal dude," so they see any outfit that deviates from some middle-class uniform as "cosplay." But do you think a frog actually herds cattle?
