Reposted by ᎤᏣᎳ LichenBo Thompson @gaudipern.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Because this annoys the crap out of me: Fashion is a language and ongoing societal conversation. You literally cannot be perceived by society without participating. Even when you think you're saying nothing, you're screaming things to people who know how to hear. Only a complete hermit can opt out. 6849
Reposted by ᎤᏣᎳ LichenBo Thompson @gaudipern.bsky.social · 07/08/2026"I'm just not interested in fashion," Okay, that matters as much as whether I'm interested in walking. The fact is that I do it and it impacts my life and whether I make it an interest of mine or not, I will suffer the consequences of how I perform it. Period. I can't act shocked about that later. 1322

This is a common refrain from men that is used explicitly to mean "I do not want to think about what I wear or why I wear it. I want to put on an outfit and simply have it be the right outfit."
