Wondering how the beautiful raccoons you see in the forest turn into the fur vest hanging in INTERMIX’s storefront window? Above is a series of photos (more here) that will give you some idea. (trap. catch. drown. skin. repeat.)
Angry? Heartbroken? Me too.
Put those feelings into action by signing our INTERMIX: Please Go Fur Free petition here. And if you already have (thank you!!), please pass it on!

Fuming.
Now, I’m really not one to preach petitions or be an outright activist in anything, but I really want to put this out there to my followers.
I saw this and my heart sank with disgust, distress and heartbroken rage.
It might not feel like you’re doing much by signing your name, but in the long run it might make the smallest nudge to help something be better.

tl;dr
So, I’m sorting laundry right now to get ready for my trip to Georgia, Florida and North Carolina, and I’m realizing that I really have a lot of black clothing. Aside from that, all of my clothing is either tight fitting or really baggy. The clothes that sort of fit in one place and are baggy in another are in my ew-I-should-leave-this pile.
I guess some days I dress girly, and some days I just dress like a dude. I like my low tops, short skirts, a-line dresses, pumps and boots as much as I like my jeans, cargo pants, loose t-shirts, oversized hoodies, skater sneaks and butch boots. One is definitely more comfortable than the other. One is definitely more flattering than the other. But I guess I just wear whatever on whatever day because I am whatever.
That kind of makes me feel better, packing for this trip. I really do wear a HUGE variety of things, so I shouldn’t worry about looking consistant or whatever. Who really worries about that, anyway? Your body is basically a hanger for whatever clothes you put on, and fashion doesn’t really matter. Besides, clothes only exist to abide by society’s stigma against walking around naked. Imagine if that were totally acceptable?
Ramble over.
Gotta get back to packing.
