Yes, your battle jacket should consist exclusively of whatever the fuck you want to put on it, but if you've got political badges, rainbow pins, or anything advertising yourself as a member of a vulnerable group (whether that's trans, disabled, any kind of ethnic or refugee background, you probably know what yours are better than I do), only put them in places where you can see everyone who can see them. I'm not joking this is a safety measure. Punk scenes can be rough and sketchy places and not everyone who attends them is safe to be around.

You don't need to come tell me that this is unfair, because you're right. You don't need to come tell me that I shouldn't be telling you not to put a target on your back, but that I should be telling people who assault people to not assault people, because you're wrong. Yeah no shit it sucks but unfortunately if nazis gave a single fuck about who is morally correct, they wouldn't be nazis in the first place.

In British formalwear, there’s a distinction between morning formal and evening formal. In America this still remains reflected in conventions like “evening dress,” which is a phrase and class of dress understood in America. The “masculine” counterpart of the “feminine” evening dress is the evening suit or tuxedo, which is further divided into black tie or white tie tuxedo, which are worn with a bow tie.

As a result, American weddings are usually a business suit (matching jacket and trousers) or a slightly nice everyday suit (blazer, trousers don’t have to match, maybe a fun tie) or a tuxedo type event.

However, British formalwear still recognises the importance of the “morning suit” as different from the evening suit, and it is fairly flashy. It’s an option for a fancy event or formal wedding in the daytime. You would not wear a tuxedo to a morning wedding if you were old money classy.

Morning wear usually incorporates multiple colors and can’t be just black, has the distinction of a waistcoat, can have interesting patterns, usually has flowers and jewelry as accessories. Minimum handkerchief or boutonnière, cufflinks, snazzy buttons. People might feel self-conscious about the hat and cane, but they’re traditional options.

The one TRULY disrespectful and potentially dangerous irl client I've had doing sex work ended up getting his ass beat and getting booted without a refund. At Target, for an entire year, a child employee (16) was forced to hide in the breakroom any time one specific stalker came in looking for her. Management wouldn't ban him.

Just. Thinking about that sex work clients post. Yes, some of them say horrible things. No worse than any retail or call center customer. Ever.

When the pervy guy calls the hotel reservations line jerking off and moaning, my supervisor had a duty to keep him on the line and keep trying to book him even though he just hung up when he came after making her uncomfortable for 20 minutes. Phone sex averages $2/minute and you can hang up on anyone for any reason, they might just get a refund.

I don't ever want to hear about the 200 or so 17 year olds getting top surgery every year while sportsball parents are making their kids get arm surgery so they can pitch a little better.

Apparently it is child abuse to help your kid drastically improve their mental health and relieve severe dysphoria but if mommy wants a McMansion from her son's pitching arm, surgery is perfectly fine.
