#Everything Is Content

[deramin2]

Taliesin's neat swimsuit here is from Beefcake Swimwear of Portland, Oregon. They're based on androgenous 1920s bathing costumes, and were designed by a lesbian to be affirming to gender-nonconforming friends. They're also size inclusive from XS to 5XL with the full range of models.

ID: Taliesin Jaffe sitting with his hands in his lap looking looking off to the side. He's sitting ion the bench of a dunk tank surrounded by a cage with a large rope woven between the bars. He's wearing a teal and purple scarf tired around his head, several necklaces, and a one-piece swim suit with a sleeveless black and white horizontal stripe top and black shorts. End ID.

They're a bit pricey at $99, but it's because they aim for ethical labor at all stages of production and durable more sustainable materials. They have a pretty low markup (she's been very transparent about how they're made and costs). Slow fashion horrified by industry norms.

I just think they're a very interesting company. I bought one of their swimsuits early in my trans journey & it definitely unlocked gender euphoria. I like seeing how companies run when they're founded on the principal that industry norms are terrible & they can do better.

(In addition to recognizing the distinctive design on sight, I also know it's not a knockoff because the CR guys filmed an All Work No Play episode in a hot tub before the pandemic, bought these to comply with Twitch/YouTube rules, and mentioned the company by name.)

The funniest thing about this Let’s Play so far is that everyone’s deck has betrayed them—except Liam, who has no idea what he’s doing, is dressed as Dr. Grant from Jurassic Park, and keeps playing dinosaurs.

RELEASE HER

I feel like Taliesin has been waiting all his life to voice a parrot/a flock of parrots, and he is not letting this opportunity slip.

That’s one way to wake up, I guess

How every day in the past 8 years has felt.

ID 1: Marisha Ray giving a salute while holding a paper toucan. She's sitting on the bench of a dunk tank surrounded by a bar cage. She's wearing a black one-piece swimsuit under an open bodice top.

ID2: Taliesin Jaffe in the same dunk tank throwing up his arms and yelling as the bench is released under him and he falls in the water. He's wearing a one-piece Beefcake Swimwear bathing suit with a black and white horizontal stripe tank top and attached black shorts. He has a teal and purple scarf tied around his head.

Liam has put boots of haste on a dinosaur. Because of course he did.
