When you first install Fashion Sense and open the mirror menu, it's likely to strike you as both confusing and completely empty. It offers sleeves? Where are the sleeves? What does it mean by sleeves?

This is the list of mods after which your Fashion Sense will be all geared up with basics and ready to roar - hats, shirts, pants, skirts, accessories, everything you had in vanilla and then also a bit of everything Fashion Sense can offer that vanilla cannot.

After installing this, you can and absolutely should go look for more stuff you specifically want - elf ears, witch hats, fox tails, angel wings, luxurious dresses, digimon survive outfits, whatever floats your boat. And you will add it to these and be happy that you can choose from a variety of shoes to go with that one cute dress you found.

P.S. More tentative recommendations for people who want A LOT of shirt options and don't mind their menu being swamped by an absolutely surreal amount of variations:

Ao3 does not need a 1-5 star rating system, you just want to bring down authors writing for FREE

Ao3 does not need automatic censorship, it is an archive, therefore anything can be posted

Writing or reading about something illegal does not mean the author nor the reader condones it, if that were true, you could never read a story involving anything negative

you keep surviving, you keep getting back up but you start to accumulate broken bones and crushed teeth. you're bleeding everywhere because your organs have been smushed for the 50th time. it continues to be survivable, somehow, but the fatigue continues to grow.

how many more times will you be run over by a steamroller? you know it will happen again. you know that the steamroller will chase you down and crush you no matter where you run. so why? why would you bother? why would you stand back up knowing that you are just going to be run over again? when you try to express this to your friends, that you are tired, no, exhausted from being crushed by steamrollers, they give you empty statements like "I hear it gets easier with time." that's easy to say when you're not being crushed by steamrollers.

Some women are expected to be strong at times when they can't. Her feminism would involve reassuring her that it's okay to not be strong.

Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're too stupid to ever amount to anything. Their disability activism would involve reassuring them that they're capable.

Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're smart and gifted, and are expected to live up to impossible standards. Their disability activism would involve allowing them to fail, make mistakes, be stupid, etc.

Some children are constantly reminded "you're the child, I'm the adult" in order to deny their autonomy. Their youth rights activism would involve treating them like an adult at times when they feel ready for it.

Some children are treated like adults in order to justify increased expectations or to downplay abuse against them. Their youth rights activism would involve allowing them to be a child.

like there was a post going around recently talking about people whose parents became increasingly radicalized by fox news and it had one of those tumblr style comments on it along the lines of "REMEMBER! THIS COULD BE YOU! You are not immune to propaganda either. STAY VIGILANT" and the implication here is always that right wing radicalization is something that somehow happens to otherwise pleasant people without their consent or knowledge. But perhaps some of you guys just need to grapple with the fact that your parents might be more bigoted and reactionary than you want to believe.

For example: I am an independent craftsman in the US. I have no employees and I make everything I sell by hand, 'by myself.' But without Mexican workers raising cattle and tanning their hides, I would have no leather to work with. Without Chinese workers manufacturing the hardware and without the miners who mined the iron, nickel, copper, zinc, etc, I would have no rivets or dee rings or square snaps. I do not steal the surplus value of those under my employ because I have no one under my employ, and yet without the exploitation of hundreds or thousands of people, I can produce nothing at all. And this is true whether I am producing for the purposes of making money or for the joy of creating or for any other reason.

You spin your own yarn from fibers you gathered yourself? Okay, where do the crochet needles come from? You whittled your own needles? Where is the knife from? You forged your own goddamn whittling knife? Where's the steel from? Where's the hammer from? Wheres the sharpening stone from?

You write or draw? Where's the cobalt and lithium from your computer from? Okay, you only do it on paper, where's the paper from? Where's the wood, graphite, glue, and paint from the pencil from? You need food to fuel your body, where's that from? Where is the chair you sit on from?

Not everything has to be punk. Okay? Not everything has to be punk.

I mean that’s nothing new that I’m saying here, a lot of other people have been saying it. Like “you can have a jacket with patches without it being a punk jacket” this is true! Not everything has to be punk.

Some things can just be an act of resistance, or kindness.

Picture this, if you will:

A group of stereotypical punk kids walk into a Walmart, covertly steal things like toiletries, clothing, stuffed animals, pet supplies, blankets, etc. They then drive to the local shelter and donate those things to people in need while sticking it to the large corporations.

That’s pretty punk, right?

Now imagine someone in clothes from Forever 21 (RIP) going around and shoplifting things they want.

Is that punk?

Imagine putting together a show of local punk bands who are volunteering to play because it’s going to be a charity show, and they’re taking the proceeds from ticket sales, button sales, sticker sales, and patch sales and they’re going to donate it to an organization.

Pretty punk, don’t you think?

Now, a church organizes a bake sale and the proceeds go to that same organization.

You see where I’m going here?

What’s the difference between these things? Is it the aesthetic? The intention? Who is really to say.

In my opinion, which, might I remind you, really isn’t worth all that much, we put too many things that can just be called “an act of kindness” or “an act of resistance” into the “man this is so punk!” pile. It doesn’t need to be there.

On that note, not EVERYTHING you do has to be punk. You can set up a bake sale or steal shit you want without it being “punk”. You’re allowed to be multifaceted. And I don’t think there’s some specific quota on “how much punk stuff you do” to call yourself punk. I sure as hell don’t think I’m making MY quota if that’s the case.
