    I just bought a pair of men’s sweatpants (with giant pockets) and I’m over the moon with how well they fit.

    I also buy men’s shoes almost exclusively, because they are more comfortable. My men’s Hey Dude winter boots are the most comfortable winter shoes I’ve ever owned. They make women’s, but men’s shit is often more comfortable.

    Even my skinny mini gen z sister in law has taken to wearing men’s (she fits boys sizes tbh) jeans and she rocks them well.


  • Burning a CD mix, or recording a tape mix if you go further back, was a sweet gift idea I saw often in that time. One would put songs both the giver and receiver related to in some way. They would draw something on the cover, and spend a at least a few hours curating a list of songs that the gift giver thought would move the receiver. It took a lot of throught and time…

    And even still, sometimes was not well received. I feel like this AI song maker, will be less likely to go over well, but tbh, there’s prolly some goofball out there who might like it, but personally, not for me.

    Does your idea sound gimmicky? Yes, it also feels fake, not rooted in reality.

    Oh, what would make it feel real? Being a gift that is actually made by a human, not just some half ass attempt to be sweet. It’s a lazy idea. I’d rather get a burn CD or fuck, a mixtape.





  • You’re not wrong, this is totally a thing. I’m a euro mutt (I coin for myself) and I can trace some lines.

    It’s because were all immigrants in a young country. Even the census we take asks where we hail from. I’ve maked “American” on it the last two times. It is a deal here, and yes it can be annoying especially when you get the tropes going. “Oh my family is Italian we like big families” mean while I’m fourth gen Italian (mixed obvs) and like what, are you inbreeding to stay Italian? Your husbands last name is “smith” like, fuck off. My full first gen Italian great grandmother married a first gen polack and had one kid. One. Fuck off with your stereotypes. This bitch I’m thinking of feed her kids all the american processed foods, give no fucks about the quality of her food ingredients or where they come from, just fuck off “were Italian” bitch shut up.








  • That’s how it’s supposed to be. About five years ago I switched off cup bras and just do sports bra styles because it’s such a pain in the ass. I’ve been thin and fat, can’t say I relate to it making my boobs 3 cup sizes larger.

    I’d imagine they way they manufacturer bras comes some issues. You can have two pairs of jeans, same brand, even same lot, and they fit different because they cut the fabfric all at once. If you over stack the fabric, the top piece is not the same measurement as the bottom.

    I’ve never before in my life wished we could go back to tailored clothes and owning less like humans used to. Mass production messes with people like this. You have both a 36C and a 34D fitting, and they should not fit the same. And they probably don’t, but manufacturing has totally warped how sizes were created.
