Was just sitting up here staring at some top secret stuff and looking back...again.
I don't really Google 'hungry human' too often, it's weird.The stuff that used to popup back in the day was competitors and brand jockeys with better SEO ,and then maybe us on the next page, you might see a piece or two, maybe a model or one of you guys rocking something that I may have forgot about, despite it not being out that long ago.
There's this thing that goes with working the way we do, where you look forward,then back, and are somehow in the end forced to make decisions in the current that are reflective of both times.It's hard to give a complete visual and it probably isn't even necessary unless you're hard up for ideas or want to get in my head,but just for the fans that like stories, I'll give it a go.
Put yourself in the world and see everything at once.Take yourself outside of time and you can see energy all around you.Each piece we've had, also had an energy to it and the people that picked up on a piece or had an influence on it's creation, they span the design.
So, when I look at a piece, I actually don't see the visual.I see the feeling and the people that made it what it is.I see the friends and fans we have never met that I can look at wearing a shirt or hoodie and say "you get me" and "I get you back", it's the most unique feeling in the world.You're communicating in a place where matter isn't relevant, it's more than that.
I found a comment on Iplaywinner, one of the only websites from the community I come from that has ever really supported us.And it read:
For real shout out to Hungry Human, it's obvious this dude puts a lot of effort into his work. I ordered from him a while ago and it arrived quickly with some extra shit tossed in the package for fun. It made me feel loved in a way a monster such as myself never has
l cried.As a man, you're taught not to cry, but the farther I go, the more often I find myself breaking that rule.
You see, the brand isn't really centered around the people you may think.People that understand and are exposed to the energy support it.Those that loathe or fear it either do their best to suppress or ignore it.It's almost like a cockroach,snails,stray cats or the smell of raisins burning in the Sun...those things all evoke something..and they are obscure but familiar references that show you someone's character.
People can pour salt, offer food,protection,shelter,or they can cover their nose at the "smell you make".But rarely does one disregard these, they do something.Even if they don't know it,they do something.
When I think about the Monsters or people I don't know,I wonder what they feel when they open a package.I've spent many a night trying to fathom the best way to show what it is "I" feel when an order comes in.The resulting inclusions in your packages were the most refined semblances I could offer at whatever time a parcel was sent.
Now that the direction is more clear, I find myself wondering what you guys think.Let's be honest, stuff hasn't come out for a while, I was quiet for a minute, and even now, there's a reservation that is necessary when "doing business" with people.You can't throw it all out in the street, you have to hold back.
The way that I live life is a contrast of privacy and extroversion that comes to make awesome gear with a message that hopefully translates to anyone that runs across it.Many of you started with little to zero knowledge of the brand and now have made strides towards musedom, I draw inspiration from the words an insights you share with me. It's funny how the world changes.
Back to the present, there's a level I've been trying to reach and the components needed seem within in reach.History bufs may liken it to the Paleolithic era, but instead,the tools are in my mind (alongside a killer way to get more ounces in my Slurpee,but that's another story for a different day).
Now that the statement has been made, I will go head and shoot you guys something that may speak to you.I am thinking about ALL OF YOU and for the ones who never poured salt,or tried to step on us..maybe even moved out of the way...that has been what has made the endeavor worthwhile.Thank you to every fan,friend,foe,weirdo,nobody,and somebody that has made us what we are...and to the strangers, I hope you continue to feel the love we have for you and more.
Try Hard,Stay Hungry,Never Settle -h_h-
