Cycling T-Shirts Online

Make sure that the Cycling T-shirts that you are looking for online are made of high-quality material and are soft and breathable. They should be designed with cyclists in mind. Here are some factors that you need to consider while looking for cycling T-shirts online. 

Material: Ensure that the texture is very convenient and does not interfere with the in-between struggle like sweating, consistent bodily movements, etc.

Comfortable: Another factor that you need to focus on is comfort. Do not compromise the comfort of the cycling T-shirts. Comfort is extremely important because slight discomfort can impact your ride and distract you while riding. 

Durable: Durability is another necessary factor that you need to check its durability. Cycling T-shirts online should at least last for a while.

Check Reviews: Last but not least, make sure that you check the customer reviews if necessary. Be sure of all your concerning factors. 

Buy Mountain Bike Shorts

Buying mountain bike shorts is as important as buying kneecaps and a helmet. Messing up in the type of shorts can ruin your experience and cause discomfort. To buy mountain bike shorts and check their comfort is as essential as cycling T-shirts. A case of a few things to consider are here mentioned below:

Moisture wicking: You don't want anything pooling down while in the cycling action. Many lightweight, breathable shorts will wick the sweat away.

Aerodynamics and Fit: A tight, aerodynamic fit makes for faster rides for road riders, while others may find the snug fit that accentuates muscles merely feels better. Off-road, however, a baggier fit could provide comfort.

Comfort: As the primary below body’s portion, shorts can be very important to comfort. The correct shape and amount of padding varies between men and women, but a good fit is important for long rides. Note, however, that this is less of an issue if you go with a comfortable one.

Pockets: Bike shorts don't generally have pockets, and you shouldn't use them anyway. Carrying something on one of your legs would provide an unnecessary Source of friction as you pedal.

Bib vs. regular shorts: Originally, bike shorts were much like walking shorts, with the intent of fastening at the waist. Bib shorts remain in place much better, by fastening over a cyclist's shoulders. Once most riders go to bibs, they never go back.

Color: Of course, there are other options, but the most suggested is the classic black. It's perfect for concealing the chain grease or tire dirt that you need to wipe off your hands, and black always prevents see-through slip-ups.

Conclusion

Being a cyclist means that while hunting for the best online cycling store USA you also pay attention to the other essentials of cycling like cycling T-shirts online and also mountain bike shorts. There is a single-stop shop for you online that you can visit to get all your accessories covered.

[so-i-did-this-thing]

im sorry this might not be the place to ask for advice/help but im doomscrolling about the news and the soon to be president and im seeing so much to be scared shitless about, invasions, removal of vaccines, cost of living increases, revoking of trans rights and how it might make it all the more impossible to get the surgeries i wanted... its just too fucking scary to breathe right now what do i do with myself

Hey, Anon. I'm here. A lot of us are here right with you.

It's scary, to be sure. And I'm not going to sugarcoat the possibilities of things going south very quickly. So, let's jump into some survival tactics.

This post on burnout is a great place to start. There is a lot of overlap with burnout and the anxiety you're feeling.

Allow yourself to slow down and unplug. You are allowed to step away from the news cycle -- events out of your control will unfold regardless.

Don't feel guilty by letting yourself relax. I find it especially helpful to do activities that don't involve the internet -- I've been decorating my house, mending broken crockery, and sketching some embroidery ideas. I try to take the time to get dressed and groomed every day, to remind myself that I matter. I spend more time outdoors.

As you find the ability to relax, you'll be able to focus better on the things you can do to be resilient. Things I have been doing to improve myself and make me a better helper:

Staying on top of my medical appointments and any preventive care I can do

Working to be physically healthier overall to mitigate future medical issues

Getting all my paperwork in order, including passports

Tweaking my financial budget

Researching what estate & family documentation needs to be done to protect my relationship in case my marriage gets dissolved

Brushing up on job skills, getting new certifications to stay competitively employable

Stocking up on my medical and general emergency supplies, especially for bad weather events

Getting in the habit of mindful purchases, curbing my habit of impulse shopping

Selling things I don't want or need anymore to have a little extra money and be able to move house easier, if need be

Building a habit of fixing/maintaining my possessions instead of trashing broken things

Canceling online subscriptions and quitting social networks that make me feel in danger

Getting my personal and any queer-related files out of the cloud and onto redundant solid state drives

Downloading / printing out queer resources and buying queer art that may be banned or monitored in the future

Enjoying physical media again and hunting for old favorites

Keeping in touch with queer friends and allies and making plans in case people (even myself) need to flee

Being visible when I can and knowing when it's best to lay low

Allowing myself the luxury to dig into things Old Me would have saved for "special" events -- aka, wearing the nice clothes and eating off the fine china as an everyday thing

Shutting the fuck up, especially online, when I think my words could be used against me

In a way, I am trying to simply become a better version of myself, one who is calm & self-sufficient, mindful about his actions, and available to help those in need. It sucks that the driving factor is fear, but I intend to use that fear as a catalyst to be stronger and survive.

There is a lot to be done, but there was always going to be work, new regime or not. But please, start with that burnout article so you can jump into your own plans with new hope and energy. ❤️

[decaffeinatedcandycane]

RANDOM Headcanons: Buying make-up shenanigans

Warnings ⚠ none

Includes: Price, Soap, Ghost, Alejandro, Andre, Konig, Gaz, Horangi, Nikolai

Has "can figure everything out" attitude and confidently enters a store just to get lost in it.

Browses for hours, gets mad when he can't decide, then gets distracted by another item. Rinse and repeat.

The cycle continues until he snatches a sales person, or a manager suspects him of stealing, asks tons of questions, ends up buying himself lipgloss (smells like coconut)

There is just too much stuff in the store, it gets him overwhelmed.

Tries to tactically question you about makeup, gives up and snoops through your bags.

Eventually buys some more "stuff" (gets himself different smelling lipbalms and lipglosses) and gets you something you already have.

Admits what he was doing and drags you back to the store with him.

Bonus: The sales people there are sweating upon his arrival. Even the trainee learnt the makeup brands, just by staying next to Price and listening as he asks his question. And he asks, asks questions - even about the ingredients.

Baby boy loves sparkles and the smell of makeup. The salesmen don't like him that much.

He knows what you like, however he is not permitted to shop alone. Why? His toxic trait is that: he buys in bulk.

You learnt that the hard way, after he came home with 27 eyeshadow pallets.

Expiration dates who?

Has a mascara from 7 years ago. Refuses to throw it away. Only does so, after you show him a documentary about eye infection.

Please take a moment to envision how tall and scary he looks in the makeup aisle, standing behind you like a creepy statue, dull on black, with his balaclava. I just giggled.

Insist on paying for everything ( didn't say anything about Price, because there is no insisting - he just pays. Ghost, at least pretends he will let you pay.)

Despises the blackhead mask. Did it once, regretted his life choices.

Experimenting king.

He is the dude who will visit a store, several times, no matter where he is at and buy whatever is new, shiny and cool.

Loves giving you his makeup finds and watching you apply/wear them.

Plays with your brushes a lot. ( They are just so soft and fluffy)

Bonus: Buys skincare for you and the team. Forces his team in spa day retreats.

Definitely knows what to buy.

He knows your makeup, especially if you live together.

Gets lost in the brushes sections and touches everything fluffy. (Don't let him shop with Soap)

Smells everything and if he wants to try something new, buys whatever smells best.

Compares prices online, if a salesperson is mean to him, buys the cheaper stuff and returns back to the store. (Petty boy)

Prefers more matte and glossy options, rather than sparkles.

You already know imma gonna say it. But if you think people get scared of Ghost in a store, you should see them around König.

Can he wear civilian clothes and no mask. Yes. Does he. Sometimes. If he feels like it.

You reassure every sales person that he is with you and he is no a threat.

König in a makeup store is like a kid around new shiny things. Touches everything.

Wants to buy everything.

"No, I don't need this" and "Put it back" are your go to phrases.

Does not enter tight stores after a shelf incident.

If you shop for hours he may make friends with the staff and even help them with the heavy lifting. (lil show-off 👑)

Gets shifty easily, so you better have Horangi nearby or be located near a food court.

Steals shit. Not because he has to, but because he can.

Definitely goes shopping alone, or uses you as a mule for his stolen goods.

Absolute creature when it comes to makeup sponges. Tiny, squishy and come in different shapes and colors.

Has a collection of them.

Sample king (loves free shit, espcially of expensive products), but has a deep appreciation of the tiny samples. Keeps them as another collection.

Lost af

Buys whatever the makeup girl tells him to buy.

He will try to figure out your makeup, after trying solo shopping and will buy some stuff. Not incompetent at all.

Hates the stores. Sales people continuously snuck up on him and talk. Nikolai is not a fan.

Sorry, but he has a special place saved for hatred for every store where he has to socialize.

Has enough opinions on products to need any external ones.

Will buy you makeup as a gift, but that's it.

Don't drag him to a store, ever.

Makeup judge. Buys only brands he trusts and ignores the rest.

Goes with you and glares at the sales people, who try to make you buy more products.

Buys his lipbalm at a grocery store to avoid sales pitches.

Huge on skin care and hair products, which he orders online.

Loves when people stare at you at the store, always puts a hand around your waist. "Yup,she is with me" attitude (one of the main reasons on why he shops with you)

[writingduhh]

either ted or schlatt when reader gets their period?

- ⁉️, could I be an anon?

But of course my love! I hope you enjoy! ❤️

Also I’m open for requests! Preferably HC, Mood-boards, and longer fanfics for the chuckle sammy boys!

Chuckle Sandwich ||Time Of The Month (HC)

❥ Jschlatt

▷ I feel like he’s the type of boyfriend who would be a little uncomfortable, at least at first. Not because he thinks it’s gross or makes him uncomfortable, more like he doesn’t want to mess up or accidentally upset you (plus he only has a brother) .

▷ However, he’s very willing to learn. Especially if it means being able to take care of the love of his life. ;)

▷ Finding things in his search history such as, “How to help partner on period?”, “How to stop cramps?”, “Why do periods happen?”

▷ Let’s you use him as a human punching bag if you need to release some anger.

“We really need to get you some boxing lessons, doll…”

▷ Offers you his hoodies/sweatshirts. He wants you to be as comfy as possible. Plus, he loves to see you in his clothes, ofc

▷ He’d probably make you a whole blanket nest on the couch. Complete with pillows, snacks, and him waiting to cuddle with you

▷ Uses this time as an excuse to lay with you all day. (Totally not an excuse to be lazy… It definitely is)

▷ Suggests using the cats as ‘natural heating pads’ or just holding them like a stuffed animal

▷ He insists on going to the store himself to get you pads or tampons, so you can ‘rest.’

“Babe what size do you wear?“

“What do you mean the S stands for super?”

▷ Spends about 20 mins just reading the boxes or looking up reviews online He wants to make sure he gets the best products for you.

▷ Ends up buying 3 different strengths/sizes, plus a little treat for you.

“Thanks so much for going to the store for me… is this beef jerky?”

“Well, I assumed that you might be craving something to snack on… So, I just guessed and got you my favorite thing.” He explains, kissing your forehead.

▷ It’s the thought that counts, right? 😭😭

▷ Definitely babies you. He won’t let you get anything yourself. Definitely the Princess treatment 💅

❥ Ted

▷ I feel like Ted is the type of boyfriend that is very knowledgeable about periods. So needless to say he’s very on-top of things.

▷ Keeps a stash of your products under the sink “Just In Case.” Probably even keeps an extra clothes for you as well. (Or just insists you borrow his)

▷ Very understanding of your mood swings, pains, and every other symptom periods have (rip)

▷ He’s always there when you need him. A shoulder to cry on, he’s right there. Someone to rant to, he’s listening. Someone to just hold you, his arms are wide open.

▷ Literally your professional teddy bear

▷ There's a good chance he secretly keeps track of your cycle. (I low-key could see this) This way he knows whatever phase you’re in and how best to help you.

▷ Seems to always be learning some new techniques or ‘hacks’ in order to help you.

“I saw this video on how to massage out cramps. Can I try?”

“Can I try to find the pressure points that help cramps? I watched a video on it.”

▷ Let’s be real, it’s mainly an excuse just to touch you.

▷ Cooks all your favorite meals and makes sure you’re eating enough calories/protein.

▷ Essentially he gives you the princess treatment. You don’t have to even lift a finger.

Did anybody else’s parents (or at least one of them) teach them the “Wait and see if you want it?” rule?

Basically, when I was a kid and I wanted something in a store that my dad didn’t want to buy me- BUT wasn’t also a high-end super expensive thing like a video game console that I’d undoubtedly want for a long period of time - he would refuse with the possibility of caving in later...  but only if, by the next time we visited the store, I still wanted it.

For example, I’d see a cool limited edition flavor of breakfast cereal that my dad personally thinks sounds disgusting. He’d say, “Let’s not get it today, but if you still want it after a few days, then I’ll pick it up.”

At the time, of course, I’d be grumpy. But lo and behold, next time we visited the store, I’d see that cereal and think, “Oh yeah... I forgot all about it after a few hours. Honestly, I don’t really care about it too much.” Or I’d spot a new limited edition breakfast cereal and try to get THAT one, and if my dad thought it sounded gross, the cycle would begin anew.

Sometimes, though, I WOULD still want a thing, and if it really wasn’t that expensive or a waste if I didn’t finish/use it, my dad would be true to his word, which made the lesson all the more effective. As much as it gave me later purchase indecisiveness (hemming and hawing over if I really NEED something or if I just want it and will be tired of it), I do think it benefited me overall.

For example, recently I visited the Edinburgh zoo and saw these pandas wearing tartan clothing:

which of course I IMMEDIATELY wanted. But I decided to hold back because I’ve got other purchases to make right now, and honestly, how badly do I want it?

... The answer, as it turns out, was “very badly”, as four days later, I bought one online.

Would I have paid almost 5 pounds less if I had gotten it at the gift shop? Yes.

Is the satisfaction that I truly wanted this toy enough worth the additional expense? I sure hope so.

i'm a man cheerfully surrounded by anachronisms and i'm comfortable w that.

i'm sitting in my turn of the 21st century flat, converted from school rooms in a 19th century building, listening to a 1960s playlist and typing this on my laptop on a bureau that was made in 1960. earlier i was listening to an audiobook recorded in 1992 and published on cassettes of a book published in 1949, set in the 1920s.

in my flat are a wide variety of pieces of furniture and books and pieces of art, spanning from their oldest the early 1800s, most of my favourites at least a century old. my tv even is about 15 years old, because i saw the sign on it in the shop warning the consumer "NOT SMART" and i bought it in desperation, and immediately felt relief upon bringing it home, even if i had to open up the back to do a few repairs and render it usable.

my clothing style is a cheerful mix of 1970s or 1920s silhouettes depending on the day's mood - not to mention the temperature - and most of said clothing is at the very least 2 decades old bc if i buy anything newer, the quality is so poor it will come apart in weeks

bc for all we've come on in modern technology, the state of the world's politics is that the companies manufacturing a lot of our clothes still rely on the cheapest and most easily exploited workers they can get, and whilst exploiting these workers, they give them worse and worse materials to work with, again for the sake of cheap cost. let's be honest, that's the same reason most of my furniture is a century or two old.

my sensibilities and my politics often strike friends of mine as old-fashioned, but funnily enough, what i try to replicate most in my preference for antiquity is the pace. it's not just the aesthetics or whatever, it's how slow everything is, and how slow i try to keep my life so that i can keep pace with it.

in the 21st century, because of the competing desire of so many companies and corporations to sell us the most they absolutely can, to mine as much data from us to sell on as they can, to make the most of the attention of our eyeballs on their advertisements, not to mention the desire to exploit our labour, there is an expectation of the highest possible pace.

infinite scrolling - scroll for as long as you can, never feel satisfied, keep looking at the next post, and the next, and the next. the rolling 24 hour news cycle. wage theft, digital clock-ins, spyware on your work technology, policed lunch breaks. why didn't you answer your phone? why didn't you answer my text as soon as you got it? why aren't you constantly available to everybody, at once? next-day delivery. buy it now. get the newest thing or everyone will look at you and wonder why you're stuck in the past. you'll be the odd one out. everyone is progressing but you. hurry up. infinite, constant progress - infinite, constant expansion.

everything is urgent. even and especially the things that aren't urgent at all.

the urgency is like... a scam, is the thing. getting everything now, everything being so fast, feels like it's satisfying in the moment, but it's lower quality, it's less satisfying, and it cheats you of rest and relaxation and contemplation.

marx talks about it, about the intent being to keep the worker so exhausted by work that he cannot devote his time to protest or to political study. when we are not working, we are buying - and even in the age of social media, that's a kind of buying too, we're buying with our time and our eyes and our attentions, in the sense that we're paying for it.

and like. i say this as someone who makes my entire living online, whose existence is made possible by social media, and by creating art and fiction made available to people through socials - not to mention the fact that i would be dead about 8 times over if not for the various medical interventions i'm lucky to avail of, many of which weren't widely available long before i was born

i'm not saying this as like. "look how i'm doing better" or "oh silly ppl are letting myself be played" bc like

these are problems of a multitude of exploitative systems in place. when ppl see the various anachronisms i surround myself with, i think ppl often take it as aesthetic or about personal comfort, and it's absolutely about those things, but it's always worth thinking like

what the underlying things i'm replicating are, or the underlying meanings and bits of peace that might be present.

it's the same reason there's a rise of cottage core obsession and a fixation on self-sustainability, an eagerness to cultivate land or plants, etc - it's a desire to be close to growth and to see the actual results of one's labour rather than having it abstracted a hundred times in service to a billionaire

yes, there is an undercurrent of white supremacist settler spirit, especially bc some of this content is explicitly produced by fascists, and it is a recurrence of the same politics we saw in the german blood & soil ideology

but it's not just white supremacy, or stealing and "settling" land. it's not a desire for individualism and self-sustainability that comes from just, pure libertarianism and a desire to be separate from others - it's first and foremost a resistance to the constant appetite of our commercialised state of being

the fascist call of "reject modernity, embrace tradition" is about a return to patriarchal white supremacist structures - part of what makes people susceptible to these calls is because of the exhaustion of modernity and the current grind, and they seek escape from it

they then are turned to blaming it on jews or brown people or Black people or the gays or the transgenders or DEI or women or whatever other scapegoat may come to mind. it's exploiting a vulnerability and an exhaustion in the average person and obfuscating what's truly causing their suffering, and who/what is truly being exploited

Q: It’s better to change "modernized hanfu" into "hanfu theme modern dresses" because most of those are Western dresses with Chinese elements.

things to do when bored!

just like the photo above, go out with a friend (or by yourself!): enjoying a pretty treat or meal in a cute place is always lovely!!!

start a mini garden: it can be in your room or just around the house, plus plants can have benefits and flowers are pretty! for example, rosemary smells good, can be used when cooking, and pansies are beautiful, and can be eaten

bake/cook!: watch or read a recipe, and try it out. it can be something new, but make something you’ll enjoy eating

take a walk or hike: this can be everywhere, in a garden, park, or just in your neighbourhood

read/watch a series: reading is good for you! plus, it’s always fun to read a book, then watch a movie/series based on it!

do something creative like drawing, painting, writing, dancing, singing or play an instrument

sewing/knitting/crocheting: are all fun and useful. when it comes to sewing, you can repair old clothes, or stitch on pretty designs. and maybe make yourself a scarf or keychain on the go!

yoga/pilates: these can help you relax, and tone your body

try a new sports: something like swimming, cycling, running if you want to do an individual sports, or something like tennis, badminton or basketball is good too!! sports can be enjoyed with friends and family or even with strangers

journal: this may sound boring, but you can always decorate your page with cute stickers, photos, memorabilia and even more!

study: this is most definitely boring but you’re grades will thank you someday

clean/organise: this will help put together any messy parts of your life, plus it can be considered as exercise(?)!!!

puzzles/games: puzzles and crossword puzzles and sudoku are some activities you can enjoy, at home and even outside! you can also do things like colouring or mystery games

self care/pampering: this is so fun, and you can take care of yourself on the go! do a face mask, hair mask, exfoliate your body, do your nails… there’s so much more

shopping: hehe this can be considered a form of exercise(?) and it’s fun! online shopping is great, but going out is even better! buy some stuff for yourself, and make sure to treat yourself to a treat and drink midway!

do you have anymore ideas? let me know

_(:3 」∠)_ (what I’m doing as I type this out)

Period pains

What can I say? They’re a bitch-

Modern!Kid PiratesxReader

Relationship: 4 boyfriends, one pain-induced girlfriend

Warning: It’s period, it’s messy and emotional. Maybe a little nfsw.

~*~

“FuckfuckfuckfuckFUCK!”

That was the only thing that could be heard in your shared apartment.

The men in your life were prepared this time for what was to come.

It was one hell of a painful menstrual cycle and even Kid was told to not tease the affected party.

Pillows fluffed, blankets warm and snacks to your disposition.

They organized themselves on who has better patience. Day one was Wire’s. He was good at keeping you comfortable and making sure to help you run a few errands by going to the grocery store and get your favorite things just so he could cuddle and kiss you better. You’d both watch drama series and binge your favorite shows.

Day two was Killer’s. You were an emotional crying mess when you had the blonde doing everything and anything to keep you happy. From cooking and cleaning to massaging your feet and lower back. Depending on how bad it was- he’d have ice packs and warmers for your disposition. Usually you’d lean for ice packs, you had a personal muscle heater that could cuddled you silly while spoon feeding you ice cream. Day two with Killer was have him dot on your and treat you like a Queen.

Day three was Eustass Kid.

And for good reason.

“You fuckin’ suck, Eustass.”

“Oh yeah? You know what’s not sucked!?”

“What!?”

“MY DICK!”

Cats and dogs.

But he loved it.

Normally he couldn’t argue with you because you are fragile but- when it’s day three of your period?

With the pain and the anger came the horny. And he liked how depraved you’d get with him.

“Ya know…getting railed helps with the pain.”

Of course, Kid knew this. Sure, it was a little messy and aftercare was twice as necessary but it was worth it. Their Angel deserved the best.

“Did you change the mattress’ fitted sheet?”

You nodded yes. Best credit card purchase you’ve done so far and you made sure all the beds in the apartment had one.

“How bad does it hurt? If it’s too much, you know the drill-“

“Pain Pill, load of water and wait half an hour?”

“Atta’ girl.”

You did.

And as requested- you were thoroughly railed and since the harder he went, the less it hurt…you told him to just go all out.

As busted as you would feel, you had your little victories. When he emerged out of your room- clawed, scratched, bitten and bruised.

And make the others up their game.

Day 4 was Heat’s. He had it easy. The pain was there but your feelings and emotions were on check, your stomach was a little better and it was the day for self-care.

You’d both have facials, do your hairs, buy make up and clothes online, plus he’d do coffee shop runs for you and the others if they were around.

The best part of day 4 was having Heat play video games with you. He is barely around during the day since he works at night and needs to pass out. But he always takes the time to dedicate himself to you like this.

The last day of your period would be cuddled up together, sleeping with your entourage of big intimidating men and their dotting, in their own style of course.

Kid would have his nails painted by you and he did yours. Headband on and mud mask on for at least 10 minutes.

Wire would be making popcorn and binging 4 hours straight a series they all wanted to knock out. He was next in line to get his eyebrows plucked and detailed by you.

Killer would make chocolate covered treats and give you kisses, while you got to taste what the cook was making and made everyone jealous. In return, you’d sit down and braid his hair, telling him how good he’s been to you.

And Heat would be on your lap, when he came home from whatever errand he was doing. He’d enjoy your fingers deep into your scalp and hum happily whenever your scratched a very particular spot. He’d also have deep conditioning applied to his hair just so you could both rinse it off later in the shower.

It can be the worse week physically.

But the men in your life had it covered.

First off, happy birthday!!! I hope the celebration(s) distract you from those stupid troubles plaguing you. Now, if Theodora and Ondolemar were somehow flung into our world and time, what are some things they'd love, what would they hate and what wouldn't they be able to cope with at all?

Thank you so much! Hoping once I take some meds and eat I'll feel better :) This is a great question! Very fun!

Theodora would love online shopping, buying something and it arrives at your house??? Incredible. And you can order from different parts of the world? Amazing. She would also love public transportation haha. I am not sure with what she would hate necessarily but she wouldn't be able to cope with social media and 24 hour news cycles. The constant buraage of information mixed with world events spun for entertainment would tried her out. She's just like me fr fr <3

Ondolemar would love cottage country and disappearing for a weekend to the middle of nowhere along a lake and hitting up a wine tour to get slightly wine drunk mid-day. He would hate traffic and heavily critique other people's driving if he learned how to do it :P Not the aggressive type to get out of the vehicle but inside he is saying many colorful and berating things about people who cut him off. I think he wouldn't be able to cope with modern clothes being made so shittly and the prevalence of polyster haha. Not even needing to understand the oil industry, he'd just be so ??? at the idea of making clothing from something that is not breathable and feelings ugh :P

How do you buy designer on a budget?

Vestiaire and beacon’s closet have been my go tos, unfortunately beacon’s closet doesn’t have an online store anymore 🥲 goodwill does though and you can find great stuff that have been authenticated although the pricing can be a little hit or miss. I know other people use depop, I haven’t tried them out yet.

*If you’re interest is boycotting fast fashion I have some useful suggestions, if not just ignore the rest of this post.*

First thing is to obviously stop buying fast fashion. Sounds easy but it’s a hard habit to break given the convenience and price. Currently I would assume you have enough clothes that are in good enough condition that you can make do with what you have even if they aren’t your favorites. In my experience anything fast fashion usually will not end up being your favorite. It has a big payoff when it’s brand new but a short shelf life by design.

Thrifting is great. Thrifting is also going to take some time to get use to. It doesn’t have the same appeal as walking through a store designed to entice you to buy and want everything you see. A lot of what you are going to find is boring to you, but you’re also going to see some interesting stuff even if it doesn’t end up coming home with you. So your expectations for thrifting should be to explore and enjoy the process. Sometimes you find a couple new favorites sometimes you leave empty handed. It is a lot of fun to bring a friend along and make a day out of it. Just be respectful.

Another tip is learn to repair your clothes. Sewing back on a button, patching a hole, etc. it’s cheap and easy and there is a YouTube video for every possible fix. You make really enjoy this process and branch out into more experimental things like dying, embroidery, alterations. You may end up even trying your hand at making your own clothes, it’s not as complicated as you may think and there are so many free patterns and tutorials out there. Experiment and get creative, you’ll become more informed and a better shopper even if your favorite part is binge watching the YouTube videos.

All of this is a process that you will get better at over time so go easy on yourself. It isn’t mindless consuming, it’s a skill. It takes time to build up, cycle through, and curate a wardrobe. Not everything you own needs to be high end or even high quality if you are consciously buying.

Omg I love seeing new obey me blogs!!! Welcome ♡♡♡♡♡ Could you do the bros with a genderfluid s/o?

Demon bros with a genderfluid s/o!

A/N: Thanks so much for requesting anon! I'll totally make an anon list if you or anyone else wants to join 👀 I think it's a fun way to be familiar but still remain anonymous! I hope you enjoy!!! <33

P.s. if I got anything wrong I'm really really sorry!!! I'm not genderfluid myself but I do ofc know it and I even have friends that are, so I tried to be as inclusive and broad as possible, I hope I did okay :')

Lucifer:

• I could see this one of two ways:

• One, he is actually very understanding!

• Will use all of your pronouns in a cycle when speaking of or about you

• Or if your the type to wake up and have specific pronouns and style each day he can usually tell, and will use them accordingly!

• So thoughtful and sweet of him <3

• Or.... there's the Lucifer that is old... and may not understand as well... lol

• You will have to explain to him, and although he may be confused, he is respectful, and catches on really quickly!

• Mans is trying his best WHABJSBWNDN

• Overall, very aware and respectful of you and your identity, would never judge you for such a thing

• If anyone DOES judge you, they are sure to hear from him and Diavolo later~ <3

Mammon:

• Also gives off the vibes that he wouldn't really know what being genderfluid is HSGSHSBS

• Of course, once you explain it to him, he is also quick to correct himself and learn if there's certain names or pronouns you would prefer, given the day or anything like that

• Doesn't think much of it afterwards. If that's what you are, he's cool with it, that's what you're comfortable with and loves you all the same <3

• It's easier for him if you use your pronouns in a cycle, because he rarely pays attention or cares what you look like (you're hot in anything so like???) so he may not notice if that's your style of the day

• If you guys ever went clothes shopping together he would lowkey try to buy you the whole store WHAHAHSHSBS

• "I found some clothes I thought ya' would like. Whadya mean this is too many!?"

• Very happy with you, and he will fight anyone who wrongs you~

Leviathan:

• The first of this list who actually knows what genderfluid is :D

• Bro is chronically online he knows all the identities and sexualities out there istg /hj

• Is so happy that you felt comfortable enough to tell him!! Like omg MC you trusted me with this I'm so proud of you and so in love with you you're so valid

• Literally what goes on in his mind but is too shy to say LMAO tsundere Levi real

• Can catch on to what you prefer day by day or just uses a cycle, both come easy to him

• (Will actually ask which of those you are/prefer)

• Would probably make a corny ass joke like "Omg the weather is getting colder MC, make sure you don't turn into a gendersolid! lololol"

• Goes without saying but never judges you! Will also call anyone who does a stupid normie and may deal with them later when you're not around hehe

Satan:

• Also one who knows about it

• He reads so many books you can't tell me he hasn't read books about humans and human psychology and involved with that is gender identity

• Of course he is very respectful and sweet. When you tell him, he immediately starts to use all your pronouns/preferred ones!

• Will call you all sorts of petnames. Beautiful/handsome/gorgeous as examples bc he's an eccentric ass demon lmaoooo

• Loves you for you and doesn't care about your identity, as long as you're comfortable, and he will always be sure of that

• You have no bullies or harassment at RAD bc Satan has, well... dealt... with them <3

Asmodeus:

• Melts into a puddle when you tell him bc he knows how much courage that takes and it shows that you Love and trust him that much, he's just so moved, he may cry!

• Thinks you're attractive no matter what, and is another to call you petnames. So. Many. Petnames. Just when you think you've heard them all, there's 10 more falling from his beautiful lips

• Will totally go on a shopping spree with you, buying you dresses/suits/whatever you want in whatever style you desire

• Will also totally paint your nails and do your hair however you want if you're feeling a certain way

• Corrects everyone and/or constantly reminds everyone to respect you

• (If that makes you uncomfortable he will totally turn it down but he is not about to let people get away with disrespecting his MC!!)

Beelzebub:

• I doubt he knows what it is before you arrive, but once you explain it to him he's just like oh. okay

• Not because he doesn't care! Well, he doesn't care in the sense that it doesn't bother him! He has just already committed your identity and pronouns to memory and will not make a big deal of it!!

• Pays very close attention to you though. Can and will notice your change of mood and immediately ask if someone's bothering you, or if you're doing okay (this goes for style too)

• Understands dysphoria and always shares his food with you in hopes that it may make you feel better <3

• Boy is such a sweetheart to you and so aware of your feelings and does everything he can to show how much he loves and appreciates you ^^

Belphegor:

• I can also see this going one of two ways, but this is just for if he knows of it or not

• I can see how he may know about it because he did have a love for humans back in the Celestial Realm so he could have known about it

• But part of me thinks it may have been way too uncommon back them for him to know about it so idk, either way this is his reaction

• "Okay."

• LMAO- Like Beel, he doesn't care because he loves you either way and as long as you're happy and comfortable, that's none of his business what you are

• Is easier for him if you just cycle your pronouns as well because it requires less thought and awareness on his end

• When he actually thinks about it and realizes it probably took you a lot of courage and trust for you to tell him, he appreciates it a lot more and is more mindful as well. Would never tell you that though lol-

• Will definitely scare off any bullies at RAD. No one messes with his MC and gets away with it <3

Kyaaaaa first post and first request done! I had a lot of fun writing these, and again I hope I did okay!! Thank you anon for requesting and again I hope you enjoyed!!
