Someone posted this pic of Kamala Harris from the 80's and said she looks like she played synth for a German New Wave band and tbh I'll never be this cool.

A young Kamala Harris, wearing a black coat with a high collar in front of a blurred maroon background. She has short hair and kind of a wistful look on her unsmiling gorgeous face. She about to drop the most fire synth album ever.

This is a poster for 80s kids. Jamie and Shannon are dressed in all black against a bright pink background. Jamie is holding a boombox over his head like John Cusack in the movie Say Anything, and Shannon is standing just in front of him holding a pink neon sign that says 80s kids. There is a quote at the bottom that read, "80s music saved us once. It can save us again."

This would be a great "driving through the mountains" mix, or just something to listen to when your ears need The Cure, Pale Waves, Peter Schilling and more alt-pop throwbacks.

A short history of Paul and his playlists: First I started making mixtapes to play in my car. Then I started making mix cds to share with friends. Later I started sharing playlists with complete strangers on Soundcloud. Now I have a weekly show on Mixcloud for friends, strangers and other music fans. You're invited to listen in to hear alternative rock from XTC to Maneskin and all the decades in between. Listen here:

39 years today since Jim Henson's cult classic 'Labyrinth' was released on June 27th 1986, with George Lucas as executive producer, starring Jennifer Connelly as Sarah Williams and David Bowie as Jareth the Goblin King.

Illustration showing Sarah from the Labyrinth sitting in her bedroom, wearing her distinctive outfit from the film, sitting with her legs crossed on the bed holding a book and reading it with visible fascination as she is surrounded by most of the main characters from the film including Hoggle the dwarf, Ludo, a brown horned beast, William the worm, a blue worm-like creature wearing a tiny red scarf around its neck, Sir Didymus a talking Yorkshire Terrier wearing an eye patch and Ambrosius the dog sitting next to the bed near them. In the room there are several items referencing both the film and other Jim Henson works including the Muppets and The Dark Crystal, including a picture of Henson himself holding Kermit the frog hanging on the wall.

I played around with #inkscape again and trying to simulate this #80s aesthetics.

This style was very popular during the 80s and is retrospectively often use for anything related to this era. The name comes from the #Memphis Design Group.

Simple geometric forms and bright colors are quite determine for it.
