   I'm sure y'all have noticed, but 40's, 60's, and 90's fashion are all very in style right now. I love it. The 60's have always been my heart decade; I like the revolution of it all. I would have loved to be among the parade for the very first earth day. In the least macabre sounding way, maybe get sent to jail for protesting segregation of some reality TV show. Maybe experience mass hysteria with other teenage girl Beatles fans. Who knows. I'd be in. Anyways, I'm fairly certain that the 50's and 70's fashion will come next. (And then after that: the 80's! Hell yes fish net tops) Who knows, maybe we'll even get a bit of Great Gatsby-esque 20's wear. I was was watching Grease last night and am freaking excited for this. 60'S, 70's and maybe something else return. Of course, Grease was released in 1978 so it's portrayal of 50's fashion might not be perfect, but I'd imagine it's close, and oh my goodness do I love those poodle skirts. And pastel capris. And greaser outfits. THE WHOLE AESTHETIC OF THE 50'S IS SO CUTE!!!

Cha Cha from Grease in them lovely pastel capris

They even made her a Barbie??!!!

I know less about 70's clothes, but I think I like those too.

When I googled 70's clothes this came up?

     I hope these words make sense. I'm kind of deliriously tired today. I was dreaming that I was about to get stabbed. I also hope that when poodle skirts and feathered hair comes back, you think of me, and know that I can predict the future.
     Anyways, if anybody is reading this, they should leave a response. Because conversations are fun. Maybe talk about fashion and decades trends. Maybe talk about the future. Post an entire essay of a report you did on changes and and trends and human psychology. Idgaf. I also don't care if you're an acquaintance and feel like posting on this would look really creepy. Because it wouldn't. It takes a lot to weird me out. I also like most conversations, because I like almost every individual I've ever met. Everyone had something lovely and nice about them ya know? (I hate humanity as a whole though tbh).
Anyways, say something. Cus that'd be cool.

• Decomposing fabric can release methane into the air, and chemicals such as dies or retardants in to the ground.
• if all of the textile waste we normally generate in a year didn't end up at the landfill, we would be looking at a savings of $375 million dollars in fees alone!
• Cotton growing takes a about a quarter of the pesticides used in the U.s. Pesticides are linked to a lot of different nasty things, including colony collapse disorder, a pandemic in the bee population. In case you didn't know, bees pollinate flowers, and are incredibly crucial to the environment and our food department and entire way of life.
• According to the  U.S. National Labor Committee, workers, manufacturing YOUR clothes halfway across the world in sweatshops that YOU don't have to loo at, can make as little as 12 to 18 cents an hour. 
• The 15% of discarded clothing/fabric that is recycled, prevents about 2.5 billion pounds of waste from going directly to the waste stream. 
• Since clothes from most popular stores are so cheaply made nowadays (forever 21, h&m, such and such), they often end up being unusable by the time they pass through the first user and get to a thrift shop. Only about 1/5th of clothes donations are actually sold. However, they can sell them to textile recycling factories, so don't think that there isn't a use for even your really old clothes! 

I just really liked this house

dog and god having the same letters is probably not a coincidence

I have an ugly hand but only because society has a thing against veins and other imperfections. We should embrace them as though they are features on a flower. They define us. Make us colorful and unique. And that's pretty cool.

Portland's nice because you have a park about every 2 blocks

500 Knives

They can look like this                                                 Or this












They can look like CRICKETS!                                    Or maybe lions are more your speed?








     My dad checked a book out of the library on artistic knives such as this. It's simply called 500 Knives, by Lark Books. One artist in particular: Tom Ferrero, caught my eye.

 Look at this thing! It doesn't even look like a knife!

Gourd Knife

                                   And ooooh look at this one how cool is that.

Borealis Blade

     Anyways, I hope that none of you ever get turned away from an activity because it's not conventional, or widely participated in. Just to it. If you do it well, it'll turn out amazing no matter what it is. I hope you all have a lovely day, and I have a dare for you: Try something new. That's it, :)
