I've followed BM for so long because I'm an anthropologist and all of my research is centered around online brand communities of niche retailers.

Exactly! I actually met my best friend through the brand community and many other amazing women as well. That is probably the best return I could ask for.

I used to, I'm really over all the branded merch they do now though. I've sold most of my expansive collection but I kept a bunch of the museum pieces (I've followed them since their inception).

James Lillis = Black Milk Clothing for anyone unaware.

Ooh. Okay my cousins (mostly 13 or under) do shop there then. I wasn't aware it had been renamed!

Eh, when I was in private school (in elementary school, went to public school for high school) it was still VERY evident who was rich, middle class, or poor and who was fashionable and who was not. Not that I'm opposed to uniforms, I just don't think they effectively mask any class differences.

I stopped after "Limited Too". Does that chain still exist? I remember it being really cool when I was like 12 (which was a long time ago) but I don't think any of my little cousins wear clothes from there anymore?

DUH!

Modeling sort of works internationally where many American models are sent to foreign markets, and many foreign models are sent here to diversify experience and to best suit what each market favors aesthetically. That's my experience with international placement, though my experience being 18 and sent overseas was

Where did he come up with 14 years being the magic number for age gap cut offs?

You win the internet.

I do actually do that. I also have actually clocked men in the face for refusing to leave me alone and have actually had a delivery guy who verbally harassed me and a friend fired from his job. I don't care if it makes me an asshole, I refuse to be fucked with by random men attempting to assert power over me.

One of the buildings hit and destroyed was the workplace of a friend of mine who lives only 10 miles from the path the tornado took. Thank god her employers didn't open up today and told everyone to stay home. I am hoping that another friend who lives in Springfield will be safe at her job (scribe in an ER).

Revenge is a dish best served unexpectedly!

When men do that to me I grab their plate number, call the cops and report them for "weaving all over like they're drunk!"

You've found me out! Now we must reintegrate into one being.

All of my friends are getting engaged/married/pregnant, I'm trying to be happy for them but it's hard when I'm just over here dealing with years of untreated mental illness. Totally sucks. But I really do want them to be happy! And I like shopping for wedding/baby gifts.

Never, but I had a really horrible experience with Remeron and also have a problematic relationship with medication and self control.

Everyone has different budgets, my costs were considered normal/standard for where I'm originally from.

I don't necessarily consider myself oppressed, because I'm fortunate as a Native woman to look like a white woman with interesting heritage, but that certainly doesn't mean that I'm a bored non-victim. I think we can acknowledge that while appropriation doesn't constitute the "worst" problem that Native people face,
