It's all well & good to create new fabrics to keep us warm but do we really need more plastic in the clothing chain? Maybe a sustainable solution would be better or just wear extra layers of natural fibres like wool??

Basically Emily gives "Zero Shits"
This is why I continuously share these posts to make the change.
Why would you continue to buy badly made fast fashion items made in labour exploitative sweatshops, just because 'everyone else is doing it?'
Really Emily? Really?

Instagram has been awesome (albeit a bit local - mostly UK)for my sustainable fashion business. BUT now this! Jeez Zuckerberg! I came to Bluesky on @blindboyboatclub.bsky.social recommendation just to see what it was like. Just in time I'd say!

Charts like these mean well but I have an issue with how people are missing the irony between minimalism v maximalism.
1. Don't buy too much in the first place.
2. Don't follow trends
3. Don't toss out anything!!!

Art should be funded like science. To properly fund art, you fund failure. Funding failure will give you occasional excellence. Creating any art with the aim of it being popular enough to make money, will give you consistent mediocrity. Arists need funding to play and fail because that's the process
Let me tell you about the weird business that delivers art into our lives, and the impact it has on the long-term careers of artists. This is a thread prompted by yet another article on authors' incomes, and the inevitable reactions from the 'people-would-pay-if-it-was-worth-it-to-them' brigade. 1/
