I do believe there is a niche of people into that. Though my view might be skewed by The Algorithm :tm: knowing I like vintage fashion.

My youtube shorts recs are full of chicks trying on their grandmother's old and well-kept clothes from the 50s~70s.

Made a different comment. Deleted it. Had a better idea:

Those loose, light clothes that people in middle-eastern cultures still wear as traditional clothing. There is a reason they came up with those when they did. Elsewhere in this thread another peep was complaining that men don't get to show enough skin and specifically citing heat as the reason this annoyed them. I say fool. Showing skin will not save you from the heat, especially as climate change continues to cook the planet. It will, in fact, make it worse.

If we are to survive being cooked alive by the sun, we will need to cover up, as the people who inhabited arid-and-extremely-hot places for centuries have done.

Actually, since the Dune series got an injection of popularity with non sci-fi nerds thanks to the Denis Villeneuve films --

-- We could call it "Fremencore". Integrate some futuristic aesthetic influences so people don't think it's cultural appropriation.

Right. Gonna do that with the humidifier

That I need

To make my room bearable during drought season

Or the split AC.

That I also need

To make my room bearable during summer.

Can you see how that would be a problem?

People who make electric devices are putting blinding blue LEDs in a million places they do not and will never belong.

At least game cutscenes tend to be less mumbly. Even IF the volume of things is all over the place.

TV and Movies? Fuck me, it's like actors all forgot how to talk and instead just mumble every line.

Same, all my electronics look like abominations of electric tape, it's the only way I can have them not light up my room at night.

Packaging for supermarket products should have what the product is big and the branding small. Not the other way around.

Oh. Sound mixing on movies/tv shows should be such that voice lines are always perfectly audible even on shitty speakers. Make actors e n u n c i a t e like they did in the 30s. Christopher Nolan has a lot to answer for, turning all of media into mumblecore chief among those things.

Portuguese Wikipedia

I misunderstood the line that says "O Brasil se soma a uma lista de mais países que reconhecem o Estado Palestino,(...)Reconhecendo também a Organização para a Libertação da Palestina (OLP), desde 1975 como "legítima representante do povo palestino"." as meaning we've recognised the state of Palestine officially since '75

Apparently, according to the govbr site OP linked in reply to me above, stuff is a bit more complicated than that but ye.
