Movie idea:
Y'know the movie 'Thirteen'? Make it punk. Less romanticism of self harm. Two punk teens battling depression and a toxic family life.

This tote bag is nice and big but it had this annoying print on it because years ago i bought it at a fast fashion store to avoid a single use bag. And since i don't wanna be a walking ad and i am a little punk i am covering the print with patches. I might also make longer handles for it, so i can wear it over my shoulder. I painted most of the patches myself. This bag seems like a better place for them than my pants since i do wash my pants regularly /j. Also the weather in germany is always either too hot or too cold to wear denim jackets or vests (at least for my neurodivergent ass) so even though i do have a battle vest and a battle jacket, i barely wear them which is sad
So if u have some handy tote bags which have annoying logos on them, just cover it. U will probably use them more then since u put effort in it and they look much cooler :D
If u don't like the punk look, u could use an old shirt with a cool print on it that u don't wear anymore for whatever reason or make one big patch out of any piece of fabric big enough and paint something on it urself. It's a really fun project and hard to mess up and even if u mess it up, u can just detach ur patch and try again

Punk 101: Safety Pins
For those of you who didn't follow me over from my old blog, I used to do a 'Punk 101' series designed to educate on the history of Punk culture and to help out puppy punks who want to get into the scene more. I decided to restart that over on this blog! Starting of course with where I got my URL: Safety Pins.
Safety pins are undeniably a staple of punk fashion, but thats not where their relationship with punks began. Originally, they were incorporated into the outfits worn by the first wave of British punks for more practical reasons. Safety pins were used to keep their clothes from falling apart.
Now, however, safety pins are seen as more than just a tool to keep our clothes together. We use them as clothing decorations and piercing. A quick google search of the word ‘punk’ will show you that. But they have also become a symbol in the punk community, and a very important one at that.
They are a symbol of solidarity with victims of racism, homophobia, transphobia, abuse, and violence. They show minorities that we stand with them as allies.
Of course the prominent meaning of them changes with the time and place (for example in 2016 in the US, safety pins were mainly used to show support the LGBTQ+ community after Donald Trump was elected president).
Its important to remember that there are, and always will be, people out there who only use safety pins as a way to decorate their clothing. But if you see a punk wearing safety pins, there is a more than likely chance they are a safe ally.

If you saw someone stealing, no you didn't, you didn't see shit, it is always morally acceptable to steal, unless it's from a small business, or from a person, then AND ONLY THEN do we have a problem
