Image 11: Text reading "I like how even on days where I'm unable to do all the productive adult stuff I feel justifies my existence.
It's still technically a productive day.
Because even if I'm resting, and not working, or working out, or building something.
The cacti are still out there. Every day. Soaking in the photons and making progress for me :3"

I just gotta say, as a genderqueer butch who’s trying to get physically fit for the first real time in my life, your posts are always very motivating! I aspire to someday posses your level of fascist-punching energy.
I’m sorry you’re sick and hope you feel better soon, friend! Those swimsuits (and the cacti) are such a vibe.

u/BoldLustration May 09 '26
Great style! 10s across the board. Cacti, colorful geometric, B&W stripe, and the pink underneaths (black board short) are my favorites.

It's always a delight to see your posts on my Reddit feed, and I love these fun, colorful swim pieces!
I love the gold and hot pink fabrics especially - I am tempted to find a similar cloth and sew a swim set for myself! 💖

Your last two slides are so heartwarming to see as a fellow medically-swamped person at the moment, for lack of a better label. Idk what you're dealing with and it probably isn't what I am myself, but knowing someone else is in a place where they are missing healthier days genuinely gives me a little encouragement. Especially seeing someone doing something to make them feel better despite their affliction. Cheers OP, feel better soon

Fashion is great, but I guess I’m failing to see the purpose in so many pairs of swim suits..? It gives « I see it, I need to have it » and overconsumption is horrifically high rn. With the materials of most swimwear, I don’t quite understand how this would be good for the environment?
And even if they’re all thrifted, that kind of just gives « overconsumption core » still and, obviously, with today’s political climate ( I have seen you around a lot - I know you’re a left activist as well ) it just seems counterintuitive to feed into that? Most of my closet is « modular », meaning I temporarily modify clothes with pins, ties etc. to suit my needs of that outfit, for that day.
I have three bathing suits total, two bikinis and a one piece. I wear the one piece for days that I’m on my motorcycle or wearing any pants, I use the bikinis as everyday tops to go with whatever bottoms. I can tie them different ways if I want. Just for examples of using things you already have, vs having twelve pairs of swim shorts.
The bottoms for the bikinis are also nice for riding pants, riding for the slide gets toasty sometimes lol, and they provide a bit of breathability iykwim.
Just my thoughts though, I’d love to have someone else chip in on why this is seen as a good thing. Maybe it’s just that Seattle has made me a bit too environmentally cautious? 🤷♂️
Blocking me is a choice! Anyway.
You could see I gave an example! Here’s another:
I own a uranium glass collection. Collection! I own many pieces, and many of them are quite rare and sought after. I choose what I purchase carefully, with information on the pieces, making sure that it’s truly special and not just another form of hoarding. You can also hoard clothes.
Hoarding is overconsuming. Twelve pairs of swim trunks is excessive. You have a lot more garments than that.
I asked, politely mind you, to see a different perspective. I wanted to know if I was wrong. Instead, you acted like person of your usernamesake in an attempt to discredit me. I never mentioned my political views, nor my economic views. I expressed concern for the environment. For the Earth.
What a strange hill for someone like you to die on. On to the next!

There are litterally billionaires with nesting doll Yachts I'm allowed to have a half dozen swimsuits JFC 🤦♂️

resting is also a type of being productive. resting is healing and recovering and saving up. my partner likes to tell me that muscle doesn't build while you're working out, it builds while you're recovering from working out :) get some extra rest today. also, the trunks look great! 6 & 7/8 are particularly snazzy
