@freeshreeda I think people signal on legible levels because illegible levels are too complex and they give up
@freeshreeda and lots of people end up feeling compelled to wear something that is more of an apology for existing than an outfit
@sarahdoingthing @freeshreeda pinned tweets as clothes
@sarahdoingthing @freeshreeda a lot of people seem compelled to wear things that are accusations that other people aren't existing enough
@sarahdoingthing @freeshreeda no, that's not quite the right nuance. things that are threats to out-exist the people around them
@sarahdoingthing @freeshreeda we cannot allow a salience gap to develop
@VesselOfSpirit @freeshreeda this is another service a small-group aesthetic provides I think
@sarahdoingthing @VesselOfSpirit @freeshreeda In the 90s you could dress subculturally and be seen by the mainstream as merely subcultural…
@sarahdoingthing @VesselOfSpirit @freeshreeda But since subcultures are over, that just registers as “freak” now.
