the TikTok algorithm is so good that it even served up the perfect video to act as the background for its ban announcement

In case anyone was wondering, the "cat tunnel under the tree" trick works like a charm!

The way that some "sustainable slow fashion" content creators will preach the value of buying your clothing from ethical sources & then collab with the likes of Urban Outfitters or H&M pisses me off. I won't maintain a connection with someone who doesn't stand ten toes down on their values.

Outfit layering tip you might not've thought of yet - your skirts can also be worn at the bust as mini dresses & mini skirts!

Scheduled an appointment online w/ a local pharmacy for the novavax & an HPV vax. Turns out, they didn't have *either.* They couldn't figure out how to bill Medicaid for a Moderna covid vax. Had to wait for an hour and left with a flu shot I did not sign up for.

There’s a long proud history of Jewish atheism and agnosticism. Yiddish culture & radical thought. Spinozish, arguably. You can be a great Jew and not believe in God. So much of our focus is on caring for people & the world here & now.
saw something on myjewishlearning about converts asking if they can still become Jewish if they don’t believe in God, and rabbis asking which God they don’t believe in. or something like that

People seem to really believe that every garment factory around the world is just a shein factory that makes every article of clothing to ever exist and all of the fashion brands that exist actually just get their clothes from the shein factory and mark it up unfairly

"I would never spend more than $20 on a [new] top!" is rhetoric that, in addition to obviously devaluing the labor of garment workers, honestly feels like a lack of self-love or self-appreciation, too. Let me explain 🧵

These houses in Rodanthe, NC were built ~40 years ago far away from the water, but in the time since, the beaches have worn away and Mother Nature is creeping in.

Several houses have already fallen into the ocean. The rest are beginning to buckle, too.

How did copying the things that other people are wearing on social media 1:1 get rebranded as "finding your personal style" when that's ostensibly the same thing you're doing when you're buying endless fast fashion microtrends

This is a textile landfill in Chile that is visible from space. 60-80% of thrift store donations (yes, even the "cute stuff!") winds up here, where it suffocates the economies and ecosystems of countries affected by waste colonialism.

Only on TikTok could a faceless account try to make me feel bad for feeding a stray cat. 🙄

They were like, "why are you feeding a stray? Leave it alone or take it in, you're just toying with an animal."

Anyway, this is Simon. I took him in a full month and a half ago.

I just found a picture of one of my outfits in one of those "TikTok aesthetic outfit inspo" slideshows 😭 What a positive little jumpscare! Maybe I should keep posting my outfits to pinterest, lol!
