I really wish the seasons were even just 2 episodes longer. the show is so densely packed, and you're almost hyperaware of the limited storytime, it pulls you out of immersion.

Some of their factories have been associated with human rights abuses, such as putting workers in hazardous work conditions, stealing their wages, and sometimes even murdering them for trying to organize. When garments are produced using misery, no joy can be derived from them.

If a $40 hoodie ends up stretching out, pilling badly, and looking like crap in a year, it will still cover your torso, but won't bring you any joy. Conversely, if it holds its shape and ages in a charming way, you'll want to *repair* and not *replace.* This is sustainability.

The point of this thread is not to give you a checklist for "quality metrics," but rather help you develop an understanding of clothing. There are lots of quality hoodie companies in the world. Each makes a design according to their taste, much like how a chef creates a dish.

Don't just think about the price. Consider how much you'll love wearing the garment, which will be about finding a manufacturer that produces things to your taste. A $100 hoodie worn for a decade is cheaper than a $40 hoodie you replace in a year.

As usual, the key is to buy less, buy better.

(like watching a sad movie, or dropping her ice cream lol)

and look what I found in the dvd rental store next to the theater and on a lamppost outside 😏

'Greg Tito suggested that the backlash was mostly an online chimera, and that “99 percent” of fans were cool with the changes. The 1 percent who weren’t just happened to include, well, the “one percent.”'

And as always, it's a small elite group that drives the culture war, amplified by elite media.
