Sevelyn Gat, the Kenyan woman who became an overnight Internet star and hero when she used her flawless Photoshop skills to take herself on a thrilling trip to China!

Sometimes, all you need is a copy of Photoshop to make your dreams come true. It can shave half of your body off (see: any damn magazine picture of Mimi), it can take you to the Oscars (see: former HSOTD and Photoshop Idol Anna Allen), and as Seve showed us, it can take you on a thrilling trip to China! Seve documented her journey to China on Facebook (via The Telegraph). Seve’s Photoshop trip to China started on February 29, when she boarded the Copy + Paste Airlines by dropping herself in a picture of a plane. She also let her family and friends know that she left the country, so their texts may go unanswered, because you can’t Photoshop an international roaming data plan.

I have left the country to china

Seve’s first stop in China was a bridge, where she fearlessly walked it barefoot and in a cocktail dress. (Note: This picture is 500,000 times more believable and realistic than most of the pictures on Kim Kartrashian’s Instagram page.)

 

After Seve’s barefoot stroll on the side of a mountain, she changed back into her flying dress and visited the Great Wall:

 

And with that, Seve’s magical trip to China came to an end and she had to say goodbye to the fake friends she made before taking the long flight back home (aka closing Photoshop and stepping away from her laptop):

 

Seve’s masterpiece Facebook posts made the rounds, went viral and became an instant meme. Seve also earned a place on my “People I Wish I Was Facebook Friends With” list, because I’d much rather see pictures of busted Photoshopped trips around the world than invites to play Sugar Smash and endless ~inspirational~ quotes. I was hoping that Seve’s faux trip to China would earn her a spot on the next season of The Amazing Race, and that hasn’t happened yet, but a businessman in Nairobi named Sam Gichuru did offer to make her Photoshopped dreams a reality by paying for her to go to China. Sam reached out to Seve and of course, she took his offer.

 

I hope that this newfound fame doesn’t change Seve and when she actually goes to China, she continues to post Photoshopped pictures of her in China.

Sam also told you bitches looking for a free dream trip to not even bother. You can post as many Photoshopped pictures of you in Bora Bora as you want, but he’s not going to pay for you to go to Bora Bora. You know, I’m not going to listen to Sam. I’m going to post all my Photoshopped pictures of me taking a dream trip into Prince Hot Ginge’s pants, because maybe the Make-A-Gay-Wish Foundation will see my pleas and make it happen.

Veggie Crust will serve vegetarian pizzas, vegan ice cream, and more

One pizza place moved out of Union Square, but another will move in, taking over the now vacant space on Somerville Avenue. A4 Pizza closed permanently last November, months after an electrical issue forced its closure, along with that of its next door neighbor, Dosa N Curry, which was able to reopen in January.

Now, the people behind Dosa N Curry are working to open a new pizza place in A4's stead, which will serve vegan and vegetarian pizzas and will dabble in "nice cream" or vegan ice cream, according to a post on the restaurant's Facebook page. The restaurant will be called Veggie Crust, as Boston Restaurant Talk reported.

Dosa N Curry, which specializes in North Indian, South Indian, and Indo-Chinese cuisine, put up a sign at 445 Somerville Ave. advertising vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free pizzas, nice cream, and "meatless everyday." The sign also says Veggie Crust will be "coming soon." Eater has reached out for more details on a timeline for opening and will post any updates as soon as they are available.

[7.36]Crystal Leww: Dance music splintering into a bunch of different directions has been good for the genre. “Rinse & Repeat” has been all over all kinds of dance floors since the end of last year, featured in big sets by dance giants like Fatboy Slim and Annie Mac for being the sound of the future. There’s not a lot going on with “Rinse & Repeat” — the track is a simple, monotone vocal that sometimes gets pitch shifted over a house beat, but the effect is magnetic. “Rinse & Repeat” becomes a parallel for dance floors themselves: it is the movement of bodies and feet, the posturing and posing, the closed eye dreamy wide smiles, the potential for sex, and what feels like an absence of time while that house beat plays weekend night in and out. Major ups to Riton, who has been very consistent on shouting out Kah-Lo. This track would not be what it is without her vocal. It could sound hollow or icy or robotic to someone who hasn’t spent time getting sweaty in clubs, but to me, it feels like an absolute surrender to the genre. Her vocal is just another texture, another percussive instrument that plays alongside that bass. This is both the last great dance track of 2015 and first big dance song of 2016.
[10]

Iain Mew: I love “this is not how I woke up but it’s how I look now”: not a rebuttal to the iconic line it’s referencing, but an alternative that blends humour and matter-of-fact confidence. The rest follows from there, Riton realising Kah-lo is a star and providing an unobtrusively banging beat for her to demonstrate it.
[8]

Cassy Gress: I laughed about “this is not how I woke up / but it’s how I look now”, and I like how this sounds sort of like hitting pipes full of water. I’d totally dance to this, except that for a song all about rinse and repeat, it drops the drums out too many times, and “to the club we go” is a weirdly old-sounding phrasing. Why does the backing track fade out at the end, on the repeated “time to make the club go up?” It sounds like Riton left Kah-lo hanging, or like she was completely lost in a song in her head, and then opened her eyes to find everyone gone. Or, more accurately, this sounds like a song that is undecided about whether it’s a regular club song, or whether it’s a song about being bored of the club routine.
[5]

Maxwell Cavaseno: A fine roller that sounds like skimming your finger around the edges of a torpedo, and an apt comparison when you feel the subs on this track.
[6]

Megan Harrington: Credit to the nasty production which spares every expense, but the star of “Rinse & Repeat” is Kah-lo and her disdainful monotone delivery. You know that face Rooney Mara makes on every red carpet? Withering and far away, like you should feel bad that she’s disgusted with her display of crass capitalism? Kah-lo can do that face with her voice and it’s so much more effective.
[8]

Brad Shoup: Did Riton use a Casio SA-1 for the hi-hat in the intro? God, I hope so. “Rinse & Repeat” has drawn “212” comparisons, which is more a matter of timbre than anything: Kah-Lo is so blasé she brags about it in her Twitter bio. She’s basically narrating, which has got to be real effective in a club.
[7]

Alfred Soto: Distorted piston bongs meet laconic vocal intoning a perfect po-faced hook. I wouldn’t have minded another six minutes if it didn’t take its title so seriously and the drum fades weren’t so insistent.
[7]

Katherine St Asaph: “Eat Sleep Rave Repeat” told by someone likable.
[8]

Scott Mildenhall: For some reason it’s proving impossible to listen to this and not hear a comedy Yorkshire version of the vocal concurrent with the real one. Endless fun. “Rinse & Repeat” certainly doesn’t wear as thin as Fatboy Slim’s similar 2013 effort, because unlike Beardyman’s additions there, Kah-lo’s resilient deadpan makes the perfect distinction to the covert brio of the minimalism around her.
[7]

Will Adams: “Rinse & Repeat” reminds me a lot of Benny Benassi’s classic “Satisfaction,” even beyond the octave-to-fifth-to-root riff they share. The insistent repetition of the main hook in both songs reframes the club experience as something sinister. “And it just goes on,” repeats Kah-lo. The confident club strut so often adopted in songs about nightlife is subverted, peeling back the curtain on the terrifying social ritual it often is.
[8]

Juana Giaimo: “And it just goes on” Kah-Lo says as her voice is distorted in endless repetitions. “Rinse & Repeat” feels exactly like it could be going on forever, with its steady beat and a unchanging chorus. But if we could be dancing forever, when is it time to say stop? Is it possible to get bored of what once was so fun? Kah-Lo’s monotonous tone erases all the excitement of going to a club to transform it instead in a routine. But while we think the answer, we just keep dancing because it just goes on. After all, what else could we be doing but dancing?

The Kardashian women have long since proved their superiority at naming things, starting way back when the woman born Kristen Mary Houghton decided to shorten her handle to a kickier "Kris." She went on to dub her first daughter Kourtney with a K, despite a wealth of K-names at her disposal, and things have only gotten better from there. So, of course, when it comes to naming businesses — the second funnest thing rich people get to name, after racehorses but before yachts — they come up with unbelievably perfect, [100 emoji] titles.

Kimberly Kardashian West is the President of the truly-amazingly named Kimsaprincess Inc, which, in 2007, was incorporated, like the vast majority of Kardashjenner kompanies, in California. She is also, under her unmarried name, the Secretary of Dash Boutique, Inc. named after the sisters' store and/or that one emoji that Americans think means fart but doesn't. Dash Boutique, Inc. (of which Khloe is the President, while Kourtney is the Treasurer) was incorporated in Florida in 2009, so that explains Kourtney and Kim Take Miami.

In addition to her active corporations, Kim was previously also affiliated as a managing member with Klass Act LLC (filed as a Domestic in 2009), Dash Dolls LLC (filed as a Domestic in 2010), Khaotic LLC (filed as a Domestic in slightly-later 2010), Kdash LLC (finishing up the 2010 Domesticating spree). She was also a member of the tragically named Kklove LLC, in which she shared managing membership with the bad Kris: Humphries. Kklove LLC was filed as a Domestic in 2011, and then, as we all remember, quickly filed as a Get the Hell House of My House.

Khloe Kardashian, sometimes spelled Kloe in some legal documents, or occasionally Kloe K. Odom, is also associated with Dash Dolls LLC and Khaotic LLC. Additionally, she is a managing member of Khlomar, LLC, along with her kinda-husband-depending-on-what-Us-Weekly-says, Lamar Odom. The pair were formerly members of an LLC called Bread Maker LLC, filed in 2011 before Khloe stopped eating bread. Khloe is also, under her unmarried name, the President of California-incorporated companies Khlomoney, Inc (2007), and Khlomoney Productions (2015), which: yes, get that Khlomoney, girl.

Kourtney, the low-key mom type of the group, is the President of the aggressively named 2DIE4KOURT, Inc (incorporated in CA in 2007). She is formerly the President of Smooch for Kids, filed as an Articles of Incorporation in 2007 and a member of Just the Two of Us, LLC. Notably, when Just the Two of Us, LLC was founded in 2010, Kourtney was the only human member, not sharing it — as one might have naively assumed — with exboyfriend and child father Scott Disick. The other member of Just of the Two of Us, LLC, is Jenner Communications, Inc.

So who is involved with Jenner Communications, Inc? Mysterious President "Kristen" Jenner founded it in 2007. This "Kristen" person went on to become the President of Momager, Inc in 2012, which seems late TBH. (It's Kris — if you didn't get it, it's Kris.)

Kris (as Kris, get it right) is also the President of Kylie Jenner, Inc, which is like, moooo-ooomm. She was previously President of Kendall Jenner, Inc. Both companies were incorporated in 2010. Kris was formerly a member of 2009's Tower Lane Productions, but who cares, that name is boring.

The current president of Kendall Jenner, Inc. is Kendall Jenner not Inc. This is Kendall's only company, which I'm sure her sisters think is adorable. Kylie Jenner, meanwhile, is not left out, she is a member of King Kylie, LLC, filed as a domestic in 2015. Caitlyn Jenner has, surprisingly, no active corporations under any name.

Finally, Scott Disick is also a member of a handful of companies, of course, but not one of them involves the word "Lord," so we're sure you don't care.

SOUTH BEND, IN — Multiple audience members attending a show at The Rectory last night report that one overly-enthusiastic man was clearly sorting out a few personal issues in the pit.

James “Puggs” Puggstein, 25, was observed moshing far more forcefully than others, performing a record number of impassioned spin kicks and wall-to-walls while grunting forcefully, pounding his chest and pointing at other audience members, telling them to “bring it.”

“Yeah, you could tell Puggs was really working through some shit last night,” said Jason Pacioretty, a close friend of Puggstein. “He’s usually a dedicated pitter, sure, but he looked like he might have been hyperventilating and he says it was sweat but I swear I saw a tear.”

Puggstein, the chief delivery cyclist for a local vegan restaurant, was a force to be reckoned with during each band’s set, often shouting at the ceiling about someone named “Angela” before barrel rolling into other concert-goers knees.

“Angela’s his girlfriend,” said Andrew Seguin, Puggstein’s roommate. “Or, ex-girlfriend now, I guess. Yeah, poor guy was out running food downtown and caught her with some other dude coming out of — get this — an Outback Steakhouse. From what I can tell, she tried to explain herself, but he just called her a ‘bloodmouth’ and pedaled away.”

In between sets, Puggstein was seen alone sitting alone in the corner scrolling through his iPhone, deleting pictures and text messages. When asked for comment, he said he “didn’t want to talk about it” and, after a pause, “We have been together four months, does that mean nothing to her?”

It remains unclear whether Puggstein was able to fully exorcise his personal demons within the pit, though Seguin reported it was the first night all week Puggstein slept through the night without waking up to scream in the shower.

“Y’know, I talked with Angela this morning,” Seguin continued. “Apparently that guy was her cousin or something, and just wanted to catch up while he was in town. According to her she just had a Bloomin’ Onion. But you just can’t get through to the kid, sometimes.”

Happy Monday Everyone. I hope you all had a great weekend. My weekend was spent being sick. I end up calling off work on Friday. Since I wasn't feeling good. On Saturday I went to work but only lasted 2 hours before coming back home.

Yesterday I finally felt like my normal self. Minus the fact I have a swollen eye. Due to my allergies are acting up.  So that was my weekend in in a nutshell. How was yours. 

The picture above were taking in Rothenburg Germany. Before I got sick. Ant and me took an overnight trip there last week.  It was so much fun. To see the old town and walk the wall. For are first day in Rothenburg I wore my new vest from Newchic. This vest was super comfortable to wear. 

HAVE A GREAT MONDAY!

Did you wake up Palm Sunday thinking, Why yes, American Idol's Chris Daughtry covering that one Evanescence banger in character as Judas is a thing I'd definitely like to see today? Or does the idea of Saint Peter belting Hoobastank bring on a deep nostalgia for the early '00s you've been hiding all this time? Perfect! Because Tyler Perry's The Passion delivered all that and then some. Jesus Christ Superstar it was not; what happened semi-live on the streets of New Orleans Sunday night can only be described as the karaoke night of Avril Lavigne's dreams — a smorgasbord of vaguely Christian hits from the early '00s that have aged about as well as Scott Stapp. Here are just a select few of the weirdest covers to happen to Fox since Glee bit the dust.

Hoobastank, "The Reason"
As if denying Jesus three times wasn't enough, Peter poured on the salt with some Hoobastank.

Creed, "With Arms Wide Open"
Nothing says you're one last meal away from being crucified like Creed.

Evanescence, "Bring Me to Life"
We never pegged Amy Lee for a Judas, but Daughtry has us reevaluating a lot of things right now.

Train, "Calling All Angels"
Sorry, was Pat Monahan himself not available to play Jesus?

Lifehouse, "Broken"
In the span of two hours, Trisha Yearwood covered Whitney Houston, Jewel, Jason Mraz, and Lifehouse — a miracle only Jesus' mom could perform.

Oh yeah, and this happened:

Tears for Fears, "Mad World"
Did you find it kind of funny that Seal (!) played Pontius Pilate? Not as funny as this.

Katy Perry, "Unconditionally"
We personally would've picked something from Perry's Christian singer-songwriter years for Jesus' big Resurrection song, but sure, this works.

Deadline reports that HBO Films has tapped Ava DuVernay to direct The Battle of Versailles, a film about the legendary 1973 Palace of Versailles fashion show. DuVernay will also co-write the film with Michael Starrbury. The fashion show served as a fundraiser for Versailles and pitted the five best French designers, Yves Saint Laurent, Hubert de Givenchy, Pierre Cardin, Emanuel Ungaro, and Marc Bohan, against five American designers the world had not yet heard of: Oscar de la Renta, Bill Blass, Anne Klein, Halston, and Stephen Burrows. Spoiler alert: The Americans won. The show was also a trailblazer for diversity: Ten of the 30 models from the winning American side were African-American. This film will likely be Selma levels of inspiring with fashion-battle–worthy levels of shade.

Happy Friday! Here’s what we’re reading while we watch the clock tick down to the weekend…

Happy Friday Everyone. It must be poncho weeks. Here on the blog. Today I'm wearing my favorite poncho to work again.  Funny store about this poncho. I was not looking to buy a poncho that day I went shopping with my co-worker.  My co-worker is the one that find this poncho and I just fell in love with it.  

So I brought it. She own the same one but has yet to wear it. Which I have a feeling one day we both will accidentally wear it to work at the same time. I hope you all have a great weekend. I'm not sure what I will be doing this week. I only have to work Friday and Saturday. This weekend. Which is super nice.

HAVE A GREAT FRIDAY!

For my jeans today. I'm wear a pair of dreamer boot cut jeans that I brought back in 2013. Which it kind of funny. Since the last time I wore these jeans was March 1st of 2013. I stopped wearing these jeans do to I couldn't fit in them but now I can fix back in them. Which makes me so happy.

HAVE A GREAT WEDNESDAY!

North West: fan of giant pink fur coats, custom Balmain, and evidently, 1980's west coast skater magazines. During a trip to a Build-A-Bear Workshop birthday party alongside both parents, North wore a (heavily shrunken-down) copy of the exact uniform of every off-duty model during Fashion Month.

Not only did she wear a tiger print jacket, baby-sized combat boots, and a leopard print dress, but wore said dress over a Thrasher t-shirt, a magazine whose logos now grace the clothing of street style stars, Rihanna, and, weirdly, Andrew Garfield. Even Justin Bieber's tour merch clearly took inspiration from the logo.

Here it is up close:

Despite wearing the uniform of models nearly two decades her senior, North West still managed to prove she's a toddler by getting really, really excited at the sight of Build-A-Bear:

Here we have another gem from the popular Christian dieting section. Remember that the Devil makes you fat!

This book is more confessional/scripture lesson than a specific diet. See the “contract” below. Obviously Satan is behind this awfulness of being fat. The author’s life is a series of awfulness beginning with teen pregnancy, miscarriages, stillbirth, alcoholic husband, and probably more that I don’t remember. It was like reading a month of Lifetime movies in one book.

I also think the ladies out there will appreciate the heads up on suicide and your menstrual cycle. Bottom line: a little more fiber in your diet and extra prayers and your life will be good as new.

Mary
