Looking for good waistcoat/vest brands
Well, that will likely be a tough find. Even if you find something that sort of matches, it’s probably going to look off in one way or another

This is probably the best take here so far (and a realistic possibility if people would actually do it—they won’t but point stands)

Capitalism and Fashion - Topic of the day 2/28/25
Human beings were not dealt from the hand directly into a capitalist card game. Part of what makes us us is the ability to create freely and with reckless abandon. Capitalism is a system that’s used to directly stymie creation if it doesn’t benefit the few. There’s literally no argument here or theory necessary to argue this, because it’s just a fact of existence. Art created through capitalism is still art but it’s art that’s been twisted through the lens of the need to survive in a system that will never allow that.

You don’t need theory to understand this shit, it’s fucking fundamental to being a person. The struggle of a modern artist is existing within the confines of capitalism while still being able to create art independent of that system, because 99 percent of the time the system is not allowing the artist to live a full life solely through art
