Black Friday is such a joke nowadays. “Don’t miss out on 30% off” don’t piss me the fuck off. People used to hit each other over the head for a microwave that’s how low the prices were. People literally died. We used to be a country

I know I don't shut up about this but frankly not enough people are angry about the 5-day/40 hour workweek (and I am AWARE a lot of people work even more than that). I feel like a lot more people should be absolutely furious that we only really have two days a week and some occasional hours in the evening to socialise, run errands, do chores, or relax.

It's no wonder so many people are profoundly lonely and disconnected from their communities when maintaining a social life in what little free time we have is incredibly difficult. If you have kids, a second job, a very long commute, or other responsibilities, it's nearly impossible.

We literally aren't meant to live like this and I'll never stop being shocked how many people just take it as the natural state of things and don't want to throw a brick through a billionaire's window every time they think of it.

I can't believe it's Current Year and motherfuckers think "trauma bonding" means "bonding over past traumas," but they still think it's a bad toxic fucked up thing. Something really fucking needs to be done about the pop-consumption of psychological abuse nomenclature. Especially given how the widespread misuse of these terms straight up results in victims being treated as though they're just regurgitating buzzwords when they correctly identify things they've gone through.

yall realize that forcing trans people into gender roles based on the gender they're transitioning to is still BAD, right? like gender roles don't suddenly become good when you force them on trans people in a "gender affirming way" because gender roles just suck to begin with, yknow that right?

the class war is not some hypothetical future event. class war is being waged right now, by the ruling class, against you, every single day of your life. the question is what you're going to do to fight back.

FEMA is doing an emergency alert test on all TVs, radios, and cell phones on October 4, 2023, at approximately 2:20pm ET.

If you live in the US and you have a phone you need to keep secret for any reason, make sure that it is turned off at this time.

Yes, I'm doing this months in advance, and yes, my blog has very little reach, but I figure better to post about it more than less.

Please reblog and add better tags than mine, I'm bad at tags.

This isn't just a problem caused by fast fashion.

I've been sewing for 30 years, and when people would find out I could sew would ask like "If I bring you a pattern and some fabric will you make me something?" And of course I'd say no.

I told so many people I wouldn't sew them stuff, and they'd ask "well how much do you charge?" and like I am not a bespoke tailor, my guy. I am not making anything for you.

I mean I will alter stuff if it's a simple alteration and it's a Cool Friend who like buys me coffee sometimes cause Friendship is Magic. But also... No.

still thinking about the brainrot that fast fashion has caused in people, like i made this pair of pants that are black and white with a cool flowery design, and an acquaintance saw them and said "wow i'd pay like 20 dollars for you to make me a pair" and i could barely think with how utterly horrified i was at that; i told them that 20 dollars wouldn't even cover the materials, let alone the hours of work that went into cutting, sewing, ironing, hemming, altering, etc. they just had this look on their face when i told them that, when i said i wouldn't make them a pair for even 100 dollars because that was still way too low of an amount, a look that said "you're crazy for thinking that those cost 100 dollars" and maybe i am crazy but holy shit, 20 dollars for a pair of handmade, durable, lined pants fitted specifically to your measurements? 20 dollars for upwards of 60 hours of work? 20 dollars for several yards of high-quality fabric, thread, and buttons? 20 dollars???
