    Reminds me of Daniel Radcliffe (I think?) wearing the same jacket or something for months because it made the paparazzi photos useless as people just assume they’re all from the same day if someone is wearing the same clothes

    Obvs this is my main concern about eventually becoming famous. I wear the same clothes all the time.

    Will my fame save me from this? Some famous people get away with it. I never hear anyone saying “you know, JFK always wore a suit”.

      I’ll never become famous because I’m doing absolutely nothing to pursue fame. However, if I were to one day become famous, the paparazzi would be bored as hell because I wear the same outfit every day. Except when it’s above 10 degrees, then I swap the jeans out for shorts and ditch the hoodie - but then that’s my outfit for the next 5-6 months.

      My main concern is I’m not doing anything interesting enough to make me famous, so to become famous without making any significant changes to my lifestyle would be really strange

      it’s okay to wear the same clothing multiple times if you’re a man. if you’re a woman you have to throw away everything that you’ve ever even slightly touched

    Global News did an experiment a while back. The men wore the same thing, on-air, for a week. Then the women did the same thing on the following week. Wanna guess what the results of this experiment were?

    Instagram post on it

        Wanna guess if it was men or women who profit the most from the relentless consumption machine? Wanna guess if it was men or women who controlled women’s livelihoods based on their conformance to their standards of femininity, until, like, one generation ago? Lol

      I’m glad the emails to the station were curious and not complainy, from the couple I saw. Kind of seemed like “yep women are observant and intelligent and naturally asked a question about a rare occurrence out of curiosity“

      Presumably some of the people writing in would structure the world in a less misogynistic fashion, were we to give them magic wands, but they still made observations in today’s world. I would’ve been really sad if all the emails were taking digs at the anchors!

        I didn’t read through them but I saw a few as they passed and I’m pretty sure I saw at least a couple iterations of “did they run out of clothes”, which felt pretty nasty to me
