Merry Toothmas🦷🎃‼️
Went to a friend's place and watched a horror movie, but the trip to and from the hangout was worth it for people's reactions to my mask. It's quite terrifying seeing this at night 🦷
#Halloween #costume #teeth #horror #punk #crustpunk
A person, the writer of this post (Eugene), clad in a black denim and cloth hoodie with lots of decorative stitches and buttons, and a mask that looks like an open mouth with eerily large teeth. Behind the teeth, where the face is supposed to be, is a black void. Eugene in his mask and hoodie getup, but now seeing him leaning down on one knee, looking at the viewer. He is wearing black pants and long, black boots.

i have listened to every crustpunk argument on god’s green earth and still do not get smelling bad on purpose
kendrawrites.com Kendra "Gloom is My Beat" Pierre-Louis @kendrawrites.com · Oct 11
I'm going to start calling essays like this "odes to whiteness" because the underlying premise is that they are like this because they don't anticipate any social cost to smelling bad.

This one is v. frustrating because it tries to lump in perfumes with the broader (problematic) beauty industry
I’m turning 50 next year. I rarely wear deodorant anymore. Many women I know have stopped, too. We don’t talk about it, but I catch it in the air — a faint musk of onion, goat, curry, mustard, salt, sage, fennel, ozone, and the muddy wet marrow of the earth itself. I’m kind of obsessed with this collective stink: the animal symphony of skin, of women being women, punk and unfiltered, taking up space with their scent. Raw, unapologetic BO. The more I live among it, the more I see it not as a hygiene failure but as a radical act of self-acceptance. It’s not polite, but it’s honest — and that feels hot. Hotter, even, than anything a Guess ad ever promised.

i have no more comment of my own to add to the latest ceo meltdown but i hope they know the nazi bar story (reproduced for brevity)
Popularized by an anecdote shared by Michael B. Tager (@IamRageSparkle) on Twitter in July 2020. Tager recounted visiting a "shitty crustpunk bar" where he saw a patron abruptly expelled: the bartender explained that the man was wearing "iron crosses and stuff", and that he feared such patrons would become regulars and start bringing friends if not promptly kicked out, which would lead him to realize "oh shit, this is a Nazi bar now" only after the unwanted patrons became too "entrenched" to kick out without trouble. (Instances of people noting that if a bar starts serving Nazis other customers stop going and it becomes a Nazi bar are older.)
