Did you see the Mike Hatsune trend on twitter? So many Catalan Mikus!!!
I hadn't seen it! They're so cool!!
(And by the way, Miku is already Catalan 😉 the software used for her voice —Vocaloid— was created by the Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona)
Say in the comments which one is your favourite!

I've reached the photo limit for a Tumblr post but there's more! Say which one is your favourite in the tags. I can't choose just one but I'd say the 1st one, SpaceSpheal's, and the castanyera.
Fashion can sometimes be quite a handful things to manage. Look at this hairdo. During 1930s, Burmese ladies had adopted the hairdo that features an oversized cylindrical bun. It sat upright on the crown of the head. You can see that the width of the bun is almost the same size as the width of a person’s face !
And here is the trick. Although Burmese people typically leave their hair to grow long, the amount of hair is never enough to sculp up this bun at this size. So, the solution was a hair piece ! The bun that sat gloriously in their heads was entirely a separate hair piece. The wearer’s real hair would be clumped up into a smaller bun before pinning on this hairpiece, leaving the end of their real hair as traces hanging on the side. The hair bun with hanging traces were fashionable among single ladies while for married ones would not have.
The fashion of gigantic hair bun like this remained popular throughout 1930s till WWII before superseded by other styles.
