CBS could easily get 3 seasons out of a show called “Fashion Crimes” where Detective Derek Guy solves cases based on collar gaps, lapel styles, and shoe colors.
Not all heroes wear capes. But when they do, they're very nice, very well-made capes chosen by someone who well understands the history and political implications of menswear.
I literally just scared my cat by laughing so hard, even though I'd seen it before. @dieworkwear.bsky.social is an absolute icon and I hope he never has to pay for his own drinks. We all owe him.
It was an absolute gem. Mr. Cosmic had no idea who either guy was (he's not eternally online) and it was still hilarious to him, without my needing to explain. Artistry!
Plus, I now know about things like collar gaps, tie dimples, and madras. 👔
He's the fashion version of that guy from the viral video with the black jacket, ponytail, and frantic zipper stimming having none of the baiting the tiktok interviewer was trying to throw at him.
Starting an online beef with dieworkwear is like sitting down for an interview with Isaac Chotiner: you'd think everyone would know better by now, but people. keep. doing. it.
Watching someone clearly forged in the fires of message boards and chat rooms consistently lay waste to these mediocre wannabe posters will forever spark joy 🤣
just the ice cold confidence of "observe" like "i hit post on this & there is only one way this can go. go ahead and spin up as many botnets as you like it won't make a difference"
You could sit and watch the retweets, likes, and quotes go up just spinning the damned counter when he posted it. Almost soothing in its savagery, really.

I believe it might also have been Derek, who called a guy's tailor to verify whether a suit said guy was claiming was bespoke was actually, *properly* bespoke.
I've never seen someone burn a person with an insult on their outfit so badly that the cops got called on insulted party before, but there is a first time for everything.
He often talks about being forged in the fires of obscure niche forums and I believe him. Nobody who hasn't been privy to the most obsessive petty back and forth on post-Myspace internet hangouts can compete. I learned to never rip off knitters because they will FIND you, I bet others are the same
Going to chime in and say that studying sartorial matters (being a costume technician obsessed with suits) hones both your memory and your Internet searching technique.
I greatly appreciate when I can use the minus sign to filter out terms I DON'T want to see, often because a band or something is also named after what I am searching for.
if i had to take a guess it's a combo of both due to being ND, bc I'm AuDHD and that's me. The most obscure drama lives in my brain and if I don't properly remember or it's something I don't know, I serch ril gud. I am in my 40s though
And it's not like Twitter's native search doesn't suck ass, I couldn't ever even find my own tweets more than a few months back.. anyone else's w/o having bookmarked, liked or re-tweeted, forget it.
Only Republicans are allowed to use the apparatus of the state to assault their enemies. When anyone else does it to Republicans it's an evil that must be stopped, obviously.
Why would anyone call out a snitch working for the feds when they post evidence for said person to hand to the feds.
What is the point of it?
MAGA memers are something else.
A better question would be why Guy A even post such a outright sus question to social media of all places to begin? Us men really are insanely stupid, how we remain in charge of anything is beyond me💀
Huge agree there. Why put in that much heinous effort over just reflecting & moving on?? Nvm the fact that stalking in itself is useless in these kind of situations.
This has reaffirmed that every single person who supports Trump seems to be some flavor of criminal. From his cabinet right down to every single voter they all have at least one skeleton in their closet and end up in cuffs eventually

So there were some poster war crimes happening I'm certain
🙄
He needs to stop using words for which he doesn't know the meaning or pronunciation. Hooked on Phonics has failed him.
When it's business time, Derek's got ice all the way through him

The Nipple Ratio tweet.
1) "inherit" for "inherent".
2) @ing Holly (girlziplocked). I'm kinda glad I don't know what the connection is! I'm sure it isn't "like minded folk".

J6.

The clothing dude on the web id'd my shoes and turned me in.

It is the tweet that cemented him as an all time legendary social media cultural institution

He’s the real guard in a trench firing an M2 Browning machine gun of sartorial knowledge while everyone else makes it to safety

MAGA memers are something else.
And I’ve followed him for years, so it’s not like I haven’t seen him gut an idiot before.
Legit taking pages from Garak's book on DS9, you love to see it.
