If I could keep pet otters in my wetlands, I would consider doing some oppression horror shit.

Some people tell you not to stare into the abyss. Some beg the question: what happens if you stick your dick in there?

Kill your masters and plunder their hordes. I’m told their scales have a weak point on the belly.

I’m saying it might technically be outside earth’s orbit, but it is orbiting earth pretty close. So maybe technically but having to reach for a ‘technically’ supports my point.
And also I dont think we could get a person to the moon and back right now.

The great thing now is that we are currently ending the world, so there won’t be anywhere for that civilization to be.
If you want a future, kill your masters.
If you want to kill yourself and everyone else, get yourself some weed and eggs Benedict, and just keep doing what you’re doing¹.

Only the apocalypse is important. After that we can hand him over to the Zionists for their rape and torture prison.

Man, I feel exactly the same about loving wrap dresses. Biyltch who popularized them was nearly as bad as Rowling.

‘Swiss army man’ is absolutely real art. It’s just weird and hard to watch and includes dirty jokes. Don’t be a dick. Haven’t seen the other.

Okay, so the only thing really missing is the x-ray vision. The whole point is that he’s under cover like the entire time, so he doesn’t necessarily need to fly.
Could work.

Okay so you don’t have to fashion hard every day. You can do this at various levels of effort, once you set it up.
At easiest; put something together, set it and forget it until something breaks. Straight up design yourself as a character. It doesn’t have to be baroque.
For a little higher effort, but not too much: set up your pre selected outfits on a spectrum of hot/gross and nerd/farmboy. Add a weather dimension.
It sounds like you really value comfort and ability to move. I promise you can do better than you have been in the right clothes. I can’t speak to the climate(s) you find yourself in, so I’ll keep it vague.
Look up what colors compliment your skin tone, maybe hair color. Tend towards those and neutrals fit to your environment. You can find a chart. Spend one day needing out on this and you got it. You’re proud of your arms? Get a few pieces that show them off. Bare or translucent/mesh panels, something with clingy fabric for cold days. Get a coat that fits the fuck out of you. Two and sweaters if you live in a cold climate. Keep it in a narrow enough spectrum you can’t mismatch anything too hard, or have two sets that dont overlap. Then you’re wearing for the weather.
Maybe wear some of it around the shop til it starts to pick up a little wear or a couple stains-keep a nice set or two for more formal events. Generally prints with higher kolmogorov complexity(like a Hawaiian shirt or album cover) to look more casual/silly, block colors to look more crisp/severe/tough. Stripes or the boundaries between lines to draw the eye (if theyre looking at your core, they’re not looking at your arms) Lowish kolmogorov complexity printed patterns (houndstooth, plaid, paisley, checkered) are a little more advanced but generally more of a gambit, I’d skip em in your case.
Want to de-emphasize arms? Shirt with light core gradients out to darker neutral¹/cool² color or t/tank with black long sleeved or stand alone sleeves under, use a similar trick with patterns, moderate temperature throughout day by tossing shit in your car. A thing with a logo, probably a band sports team or your fav Linux distro logo shirt and stand alone sleeves/undershirt is going to work well for this.
Accessories: these dont have to be frivolous. Sure, you could go Iranian style jewelry and a vest/fancier pants for formal events to unchavify yourself explicitly, or you could go for scarves and tools/utility knife. Fuck it, wear a tool belt to the bar or grocery store as a fashion move or ‘in the hopes I get to fix something!’
You want to create a visual flow, controlling where peoples eyes go. To avoid overdoing, think of it a little like Sudoku: separate yourself into a 3x3 grid and put no more than two accessories in each row/column.
Re: off rack suits
Dude people who have muscles need tailored clothes. Sad but true. Get one really good one. Don’t wear that when youre going to work with your hands.
You could see this as more effort, but think about time spent in your day that you feel uncomfortable or want to hide/emphasize a feature. Can consolidate all that in the morning.
I dont know how men and straight people work, but I know I have outfits I wear when i do/dont want to be hit on. It’s not that hard to set up and shop for.
A good tailor will be willing and able to help you with all of this. If you’re feeling spendy, you can do it all in one fitting+block order and some accessory recommends; plus they’ll know men’s fashion better.

So a song worked well as part of a show, but is it a good song as a stand-alone music?
- Comment on Anon doesn't like the doors 1 week ago:
Dude. Audio. I have actually heard music that was all sampled moans. It was really good.

I haven’t heard them. When i asked someone years ago I heard some fundamentally structurally okay but musically unsophisticated poetically sloppy high-school-wank pablum.

Style is a display and telegraphing of your personality.¹
Also, unless you’re ace, you probably want her to think you’re hot. You know how you like when a lady knows how to clothes good and dresses up and looks really fucking hot?
She wants something roughly equivalent, but has given up and dismissed it as fantasy.
If you wear something very fancy, it doesn’t just say ‘I am fancy’ it says ‘this is what I think is fancy, and I’m confident enough to wear it around and take the risk’.
Like, you wouldn’t expect the same behavior and relationship from punk leather jacket guy, lumberjack, bard, thinks-hes-a-wizard, business-devil, and the guy wearing a silk button down hentai print shirt with a first-Doctor-scarf aviator goggles mirror shined shoes but fully donald-ducking it. Would you?
