Wukong wishes to show you his son, he is very proud of his son....

He made the clothes himself

why is fashion a somehow "less authentic" aesthetic choice than music. "you just like the goth aesthetic." well. what do you think the music is? (this is like double or triple true because the whole thing is an anachronism now) am i stupid for not being able to identify how listening to a certain type of music and dressing a certain way are not just exactly the same form of aesthetic choices? or can you just not see that in the same way as functional and aesthetic elements of other subgroups - skaters, the military, physical laborers, fetish culture - aesthetic elements developed in the context of the goth subculture have permeated into the broader dress culture? if you see someone dressed like an (ingroup member) your barometer for "is this an authentic member of the subculture ingroup i claim membership in" (which, like, if you think that's morally/ethically/politically meaningful, lmao. but is is socially meaningful!) should be "have i seen them at the (ingroup gatherings) I've been going to" and if you haven't been going to the ingroup gatherings either you are not a member of that ingroup anyway or that ingroup does not meaningfully exist in your locale in which case the judgement is useless because "listens to the same music from forty-fifty years ago" does not a subculture make. now, the diy ethos, there is something there, but the particular aesthetic elements that emerge from that can always be commercialized and so are not in a vacuum indicative of much.

Lol does Hello Kitty localize her to be brown in other places or is it just Hawai’i

ID under the cut

[ID: The next three drawings consist of Tome, Mezato, Takenaka, and Tsubomi from Mob Psycho 100.

The first drawing shows Tome surrounded by walls of red string boards. Her hand is leaning against one of them and she seems to be passionately talking to Mezato, who we only see the back of her shoulder and head of.

The second drawing is of Takenaka and Tsubomi. They’re facing each other on a grass field. They’re dressed in their tennis uniforms and have tennis rackets positioned above their heads in a threatening manner.

The last drawing shows all four of them. Tsubomi is on top of Mezato, throwing punches. Takenaka and Tome stand next to them, Tome taking a picture of the fight and Takenaka cheering one of them on. End ID]
