Donate Old Clothes: A Sustainable Act with Far-reaching Benefits
Donate old clothes is a simple yet powerful way to make a positive impact on our community and environment. In Delhi, as in many places, the act of donate used clothes can create a ripple effect of benefits.
Helping Those in Need: When you donate old clothes, you provide much-needed clothing to individuals who may not have the means to buy new garments. Your act of kindness helps them stay warm, safe, and confident.
Reducing Waste: When we donate used clothes instead of throwing them away, we reduce the amount of waste in landfills. Textiles can take a long time to break down, and by donating, we give our clothes a second life.
Promoting Sustainability: By reusing clothes, we help in conserving the resources needed to produce new garments. The fashion industry can be resource-intensive, and Donate old clothes is a sustainable choice.
Supporting Charitable Causes: Many organizations and NGOs in Delhi are working tirelessly to collect and distribute donated clothes to those in need. Your donations support their efforts and the causes they represent.
Creating a Sense of Community: Donate old clothes fosters a sense of togetherness and community. It's a way for individuals in Delhi to come together for a common good.
In conclusion, Donate old clothes is an easy and sustainable act with far-reaching benefits. It helps people in need, reduces waste, promotes sustainability, supports charities, and creates a stronger sense of community. So, next time you clean out your closet, consider Donate old clothes in Delhi – you'll be making a positive impact in more ways than one.

Parallels between Jamie and Arthur
The relationship between what happened to Jamie with The Chelonia cult and Arthur's situation with the band seems to me to be quite similar.
Jamie came from a family that was quite dysfunctional, his mother had died and his father treated him badly and constantly despised him, so he needed to find a place where he was validated and felt accepted. To do this, he joined The Chelonia cult, where they told him what to think, what to say, what to do, and they took his money for the supposed "donations." Jamie knew that they were manipulating him and that everything about the cult was a lie, but he still stayed there because it was the only place where he felt accepted and where people treated him well.
Like Jamie, Arthur did not have a structured family and was alone since he was little until Dutch and Hosea adopted him and he began to be part of the band. Dutch made sure that Arthur had the same ideals as him and at all times he told him how to do things and what was the correct way to think and act. Arthur had his own way of seeing things and he didn't always agree with what Dutch said and did but he always gave in and in the end he ended up doing what Dutch wanted even though it wasn't what he wanted, partly because of Dutch's manipulation and the need for validation and because he felt like he owed him his life. He always saw Dutch deteriorating more and more but he never left the band, first because it wasn't that easy but mostly because it was the only family he had and the only people who had accepted him and that was the only life he knew.
"They're using you, they're telling you what you want to hear" In the end, Dutch used emotional manipulation to control people, especially Arthur, spontaneously giving him validation and calling him son so that in the end he would do the things Dutch wanted.
I love how Jamie asks him "and what do you know about that, Arthur?" I would say quite a bit, taking into account the dynamics of the Van der Linde gang and Arthur's relationship with Dutch.
#plus the donations in the band... it also seems similar to the cult to me#those donations help the rest of the camp yes#but they always invest money first in Dutch and then the rest#like when you improve the camp#the first store to be improved is Dutch#Dutch uses the money to buy things he doesn't need but are luxuries he wants#I bet the clothes he wears are pretty expensive too#in the end a lot of the gang's money just goes to Dutch#also Dutch never donates money#maybe all Arthur was telling Jamie was what he thought about his situation...#or maybe I'm thinking too much#ugh I wish I could structure this better but I'm horrible at putting things into words#red dead redemption community#red dead fandom#red dead redemption 2#rdr2 community#rdr2#rdr2 arthur#arthur morgan

the only downside to gaining weight is having to buy new clothes all the damn time
#fursona#furry#anthro#sfw furry#werewolf#not to be tmi or traumadump but it is wild to go from 'maintained roughly the same physique since 14 because of abuse'#to '1 year into recovery and im having to keep buying new clothes because im outgrowing them so fast'#now that im recovered from surgery i went through all my shirts to see what i dont fit into and should donate and man. insane#so many shirts that used to hang off me now either dont fit at all or Barely fit#its pretty dope to go from being emaciated for years to being chubby though. im pretty happy about it#even if all of this still feels so surreal. im not used to Doing Well and still find myself wondering when it will all fall apart#my art#doodles#btw this shirt was one of my favorites for Years but now i cannot actually get it over my broad ass shoulders JHGFCVGBH

The person at the thrift store said they liked my style.
Health +100
#i went in to drop off the clothes that have in in my van for forever previously in my room for forever#i went in and asked if they wanted me to bring them inside since it's been sporadically raining they said yes and were very grateful#anyway i bought a $10 desk chair with money I got from selling a different chair. this new one is real nice.#They asked me what I was gonna use it for and I stupidly said ''my desk'' but they expanded and asked ''no like gaming or?'' and I went ohhh#then I told them i make jewelry and collages and all kinds of things then they pointed out the jewelry im currently wearing (that i made)#said they like it and asked if i sell any or had pictures#i dont on both counts but i used to. i told them id bring photos when I bring my old desk chair in to donate#they told me they're there most of the time#IVE BEEN INTERACTING WITH SO MANY PEOPLE LATELY AND IM NOT AS RUSTY AS I THOUGHT

Saw a video and it got me in a mood so i'm making this post.
I don't think people who have never been fat knows how fucking hard it is to find clothing for bigger bodies.
The first issue is finding stuff in your actual size. Because time after time after time and time again I've gone to a store and they only had small and medium sizes. Not even large. And this was not for a few clothes, no. It was for MOST clothes that I found interesting. And then the ones that were marked as large were simply not big enough.
And I know that the reason for that is that brands simply won't make clothes for fat people. It's that because it surely isn't because the large size is selling out fast. They just don't do it. And some people have the nerve to say 'well brands are not obligated to make sizes for everyone' yeah sure, but also, I can't walk naked on the street can I?
Like I don't get it. 'oh but we want our clothes to fit a especific body' so fucking make clothes that are supposed to fit bigger bodies. Doesn't have a to be a whole ass collection.
And then we get on the second problem which is making clothes for plus size people that are ugly as hell. It's always the same stuff: ugly florals, animal print that belongs in another decade, cold shoulders, that weird extra fabric at the end of a shirt to hide the belly, or just black/muted colors.
Like fun fact. If you have big boobs, the hardest thing in the world is trying to find a bra that comes in a color that isn't white, black or beige. Because trust me, I've spent 3 hours walking in the shopping mall and I couldn't find anything that fit my breasts that was like pink (and in that situation I needed a pink bra for a play).
It feels like most clothes made for plus sized people are designed with like 50+ year old white women in mind, and not even that demographic of people are wearing those clothes (my mom is a plus sized 50+ year old white woman and often talks about how ugly some clothes made for people her size are).
It's hard trying to develop your own sense of style when none of the clothes around you are in your size, and when they do, they are just not good looking to you.
But you wanna know what's the down right worst part? Do you know what fucking brand has clothes that look good and are amde for bigger bodies?
The goddamn cancer on this earth that is Shein.
I fucking hate shein. Fast fashion is killin the fashion industry, they literally have people working as slaves and many influecers buy shein clothes by the bulk only to then throw it in the trash. Shein is awful.
But. Unfortunetly, shein is the only place that I found that had clothes that fit me and looked good. I don't like that. I avoided buying from shein for the longest time ever, but jesus christ, when you can't find clothes anywhere else you get desperate.
I tried looking for other places. I tried looking at my local clothing stores and everything was too small for me. I tried looking at online small bussinesses but they either didn't make my size, or it was sold out, or the prices were very high. Tried looking at thrift stores, also didn't find my size.
I try not to buy too much from shein or to spend long periods of time in between buying, because again, I feel bad about buying there. I don't want to buy from there.
Clothing brands/stores gotta do better. And I don't think that's asking for too much.
#this is less polite as i usually am because i'm so fucking tired of this shit#like these brands make probably millions every year#why is it apparently too much to ask for clothes in bigger sizes????#like idk i think everyone should be able to buy clothes that fit them and look nice???#and like god i don't want anyone to come on here be um actually it's very hard for the clothing industry to be inclusive#bc this post ain't about that#this post is about how frustrating it is to find clothes when you're fat#and also don't come for me bc of where i'm buying some stuff from ok#i feel so fucking guilty every time i buy from there#and like my friends buy from shein like every other week practically#i usually buy from there every 6+ months or so#and it's usually like a dress or two#at least i know that I don't throw clothes in the trash#if there's something here or there that doesn't look amazing but it's workable i'll go to the seamstress#if it doesn't fit me at all (which is a risk that can happen with online shopping) i donate it#and i will wear clothes until i can't wear them anymore#and even when i can't wear them anymore they they are usually still in a good enough condition that i can donate it to charity#or to someone close to my family who might give it a better use#this is a very big rambling sorry about this it's just aaaaaaaaa#i probably should go sleep

thinking more thoughts!!
Kiley time-
I uh- kind of poured all my chaotic energy into her, and separated her from the rest of the npc cast? Otherwise the dialogue would get totally fucked, and my ‘I need to hit this story with a drama nuke’ desire would cause trouble.
So she’s uhhh off on her adventure of a different genre. (But stuff she does Will affect things... dun dun dunnnn) but dude Wow she would be so irritated by Jun. Good thing we’re going to Sanctuary to leave them and take Preston.... OR THAT IS WHAT I WOULD SAY if she didn’t want to be anywhere near the vault!! We’re going somewhere else, babeyyyyy! Maybe talking with him and Murphy would bring some understanding (is what I would say if I were doing big character development in the beginning but we’re not!!) Shoving my desire for conflict into this.
#also I’ve gotten into rain world! so we may see some influence#...thinking of. the rot. and throwing it into jer’s world#what huh who said that#we already had the idea of giant salamanders so that might inspire me to draw them more!#I wonder since towns are more developed in this au there’s also more education? and people are a bit more mindful of the environment? maybe#oh but kiley would definitely agree with that guy who said baseball was a blood sport. COMMIT TO THE BIT#also I broke a nail :( not touching skin but just fucking up the edge. aughhhh#WAIT unrelated I was wondering. sandpaper. does that exist?? sanding belts?? could you sand sharp edges on your armor??#also I was thinking... well alread though of but still. fabrics. we have sheep (and also impostor sheep. huh who said that) so we have WOOL#so people must be making cool new clothes and fashions. maybe going back to that idea of- if you have more/colourful fabric you’re cooler?#jer has a little patterned poncho and I think kiley would want a cloak with jagged edges! colour? .... I will think on it.#cool points vs camouflage vs character desires#hrhhh also good thing preston is. desperate. well good for my desire for horrible character conflict anyway HAHA-#and you know what maybe preston should talk to people more and buy something cool at a shop- variety is the spice of life#hmmm I need to look at the workshop benches again#hmmmmhhhhhh maybe we could get preston into adventuring and killing raiders. as a way to get money for food n shelter for the crew#preston’s traveling group is pretty big. ...what have they been eating?#oh and then that would spread good rumors about the minutemen!#little wastrels#ALSO it’s autumn so they better find a place to stay before winter. thinking on... animal seasons also- I imagine deathclaws hibernate#and wake up in the spring like frogs. don’t @ me about it ok#do mole rats hibernate?#do people need to store food for the winter? is there such thing as charity donations in fallout?#... do I have a winter exclusive animal I can’t remember#hm. Anyways Kiley’s thinkin strength in numbers y’know (but thennnn jun and murphy can’t fight really)#STURGES#you know what I said let’s make him take the power armor. mr mechanic would know how to use it best no?#hmm I’m sure preston has useful info on the wastes and settlement locations#she’ll stick around till there’s nothing useful left/they get into a very very bad argument#but again WHAT WERE THEY EATING.

I wanna make a longer post about how much like... how much labor there is taking place in the used clothing market that most people don't think/care about. But I have to sleep.
#idk why im so hot about this today but i truly genuinely am#short version: before claiming that something is overpriced try to take into account the following:#a lot more work. upfront cost. and time goes into reselling than you think.#its actually a skillset. and to get any real payout you have to treat it like a legit part time job#and if its a physical location that takes donations#a LOT of man hours go into sorting said donations. because people will just donate garbage straight up.#and then after the usable stuff is sorted out it's getting laundered (<- pretty much every second had store launders their clothes#you know how all goodwills smell the same? its because they all use the same detergent)#THEN each individual item needs to be organized & priced.#hours of work before its even put up for sale. and that also involves labor.#because you need people to actually put it out on the floor and ring it up and etc etc#lets not even get started on the admin hours involved if its a larger store#and if its a smaller store or an individual reseller there's a non-zero chance that they are also repairing and/or#altering items before they put them up for sale.#like sometimes the price really is about greed (the bastards of goodwill try to pull shit sometimes)#but often that's actually just what the item costs after processing

Took the day off to clean my room and now I have NO clothes
#i’ve filled three giant bags with clothes to donate or give to my friend or sell on vinted idk#there’s so MUCH. i didn’t realise how many of my clothes i flat out hated or that didn’t fit me anymore#working out is all fun and games until your weight distribution changes such that none of your pants will now stay up#i don’t own a SINGLE PAIR of jeans anymore. they’re all too big#the only thing i have in abundance now is socks. i have way too many pairs of socks#i have socks for every occasion. i’ve got ankle socks. trainer socks. thermal socks. crew socks. novelty socks. plain socks#i’ve got SOCKS#i am however going to have to live in leggings and sweats and t-shirts for the foreseeable#i have a handful of decent blouses and exactly one pair of formal trousers that more or less fit me#if you invite me somewhere nice i am going to either be dressed like a used car salesman or a preacher’s wife#because i only got rid of one of my dresses#also my vacuum clogged while trying to clean my floor and i started crying lol#it’s the haaaaair. i don’t know how it happens. i have literally had a bob the whole time i’ve had this vacuum#anyway my room is fairly clean now. i’m going to have an early dinner and take a bath#dentist appointment in the morning 🫠 and i’m genuinely so fucking annoyed about it#society has surpassed the need for me to be seeing this man every fucking month like PLEASE i BEG of you just put a better filling on it#just a permanent filling that doesn’t crumble into dust after TWO DAYS. that’s all i ask and i don’t think it’s FUCKING UNREASONABLE#I PAID £176 to get FUCKED UP IN THE BAD WAY#personal

Whoever put literally everything we can't and don't sell into a gift aid donation bag and donated it to the charity shop I volunteer at, I wish you a very merry go fuck yourself!
Sincerely, the 14 year old who was contemplating jumping into the fucking rag bag himself because he had to sort through all the bullshit you sent us!
#apollo talks#the charity shop chronicles#< new tag for this shit#i kinda understand the children's clothes#could've been an honest mistake#but half used skincare?!#come on now#thats just gross

Cozy rooms can be a double edged sword cuz one hand it is my sanctuary but on the other hand it relaxes me so much I never wanna move unless necessary
#making your room into your sanctuary takes some serious time and I’ve been here for almost a year now#and rn it’s just me trying to donate more clothes that I never bought but ended up in my room cuz I don’t need them#and so I can get rid of the dressers cuz I hate having so many bits of furniture I don’t want#but at least my grandma wants to empty tf out the garage so I can get some of my stuff that got chucked in there#😭😭 I’ll finally be able to use my rengoku and Tengen mugs again#and I can even reach the 4 candles I know someone stuck in the garage when I left them in my room#ooo and I can find the vinyls and maybe hit up a thrift store to see if anyone’s donated a record player#but that’ll probably come after I get myself a dvd player and a stand to prop my tv on#cuz for some reason my tv has this little ball sack of a recover point that juts out under the tv#and I don’t think any dvd player will fit with that thing in the way#but yeah she wants to empty the garage and I want to get rid of shit too so we’re gonna be having a garage sale soon I hope#and I even suspect that someone threw my kpop posters in the garage too but most of them were in the tube except maybe 1 or 2#so I think they’d be safe for the most part but if not I’m gonna be mad that they got ruined when people know how easy it is to ruin posters
