I saw some James Webb Telescope scientists give a talk and one of them said this was her favorite image because she had waited and worked 25 years to see this.

alternative clothing stores that aren’t dollskill or kill star (PLUS SIZE FRIENDLY)

Trash Queen (great plus size clothes AND cool accessories)

Sourpuss Clothes (great plus size dresses)

Rebels Market (not super plus size friendly, but do have sizes up to 2XL, great accessories and shoes though)

Tragic Beautiful (sizes up to 4XL, beware some Killstar stuff is sold on there)

Unique Vintage (many many plus size options, perfect for 50s inspired goth/punk looks)

Unif Clothing (not super plus size friendly but they do have L and XL, great shoes and accessories though)

Angry Young and Poor (punk-ish clothes, good plus size options)

Yesstyle (terrible/nonexistent plus size options but amazing Korean/Japanese beauty products and amazing lolita wigs)

BlackMeoww (clothes up to 3XL, great accessories)

Kreepsville 666 (sizes usually go up to 3X, and great accessories)

Gloomth (incredible gothic/lolita/weirdgirl fashion that runs up to 5XL, but I bet you can ask Taeden (owner) to custom make to your sizes. I have 3 gloomth dresses that I wear ALL THE TIME. totally worth their price.)

Kinky Angel (yes this is intended to be ~sexy kinky clothes~ but we all know that aesthetic intersects with alt/goth aesthetic a LOT. sizes go up to 4X)

Devil Inspired  (the clothes aren’t plus size friendly but the accessories and shoes are so delicious it’s worth a look)

Atomic Cherry (good plus size options!)

In Control Clothing (plus size kawaii clothes)

NastyGem (no clothes but reasonably priced alt accessories)

Also Threadless has good dark tees!

Also Etsy has amazing alt-clothing vendors that do custom sizes and cater to plus size people!

Also let me know if you’ve heard bad things about any of these websites, I will reblog with corrections! Feel free to add any you know of as well!

Hey I’m going to drop the names of some alt and plus size friendly Etsy shops:

missOctopie (cute spooky kawaii clothes that go up to 3XL ((which means something different in every store so you just have to check)))

Later Operator  not clothes but really fun jewelry

Nemons cool dark tees that go up to 2XL in unisex which is 52″ in chest, 46″ in waist.

Gobbolino again not clothes but they’re worth putting on there for their truly outlandish accessories.

KawaiiDressShop which has tons of cute lolita-esque dresses that go up to 5XL

Narcissique Couture does custom sizing on all their clothes

InkedStaind cool goth dresses that go up to 4XL

SophieandHerStore really decadent cool goth accessories like elizabethan standing collars

VrolokClothing a neat goth store that goes up to 3XL in its sizing

I can also do a whole thread on decent plus size/custom lingerie options on Etsy, if anyone’s interested.

I’d like to toss in Maya Kern @mayakern as well, since she does some cute stuff, but there’s also witchy stuff as well, plus she’s got skirt pre-orders going on now and they go up to 5XL 

[ilbbaicnl987]

May I add some lolita fashion specific shops?

My Lolita Dress- ehhh idk about how good their plus size stuff is cuz asian clothing tends to be smaller but i think certain items have custom sizing?

Glitzy Wonderland- probably not the best when it comes to plus sizes (or normal sizes rly)

Lolita Wardrobe- idk about this one’s plus sizes :(

Devil inspired was already mentioned above but it’s great for lolita fashion!

Dollbe- This one’s closed right now (as of today, November 15, 2020- they reopen on February 1, 2021) but they have some pretty good plus size options!!! They do be expensive though

Taobao- Taobao is pretty complicated to use. It’s kinda like Chinese amazon. The prices are in chinese yuan. You’ll need a shopping service to use it, so I’ll link 42agent (a taobao agent) and a tutorial for it down below.

This legitimately needs to be in future literature textbooks to capture the Covid-19 Pandemic.

I can tell myself all day, “be heartless, fuck em” but in all reality, I have a big ass heart, and can’t treat people bad, that’s just not me.

2020 has officially been the longest and shortest year I feel like I've dissociated through the entire thing my soul is still in april

bring back the habits that made you happy as a child. there’s no reason you should ever have to give up harmless things that bring you joy. you don’t have to age out of having fun. finger paint. write mediocre fanfiction and questionable poetry. put chocolate chips in your waffles. sing in the bath, and while working in the yard, and while washing your hands. hammer tunelessly on a piano. spin in circles until you fall down. climb a tree. just because you’re now in charge of your life doesn’t mean you’re expected to give up on the things that make life feel worth living

What if, and hear me out, people DO love you

Your coworker who loves when they get to work a shift with you, even if you don’t talk

Your cousin who’s relieved when they see you at family gatherings, who thinks you’re “the cool cousin” but hasn’t said anything out loud

Your classmate who thinks you have great taste, even if they’re too shy to speak up about it in class

Your childhood friends who remember you fondly

The waiter you tipped during a busy night

That person you complimented on the street

The little kid you waved to

The old woman you made small talk with

People love you, because you’re lovable. And you’re worthy of love. Even if it doesn’t feel like it sometimes

(Self depreciating comments will be removed at best, bluntly and remorselessly told to shut the fuck up at worst. Fuck around. I dare you.)

[moisemorancy-deactivated2022061]

never speak twice on how you feel , cause that mf heard you the first time

You know I love how so many people are like “respect boundaries respect consent” until it’s time to respect people w OCD who can’t shake hands or be touched or when an autistic person tells their family member they can’t give hugs or when a chronically ill person tells you “no I can’t do this thing” and you think “maybe if I just make them do it anyway it’ll make them stronger” or when a mentally ill person or someone who has been abused is like “I don’t want to be around this person/thing it’s triggering” and you get people guilting them to “just get over it”

If you’re about consent and boundaries, good, you should be, but remember to keep that energy when moms of autistic kids are like “I still hug my child even tho it makes them have panic attacks” or when someone’s like “yeah they said they don’t want to be around this person cause it’s “triggering” but I’m their friend so they should do it for me” or when a disabled person says they can’t go up the stairs and you’re begging them to “try anyway”

Don’t lose that mindset, or that energy when it’s time to respect the boundaries or consent of mentally ill and disabled people.
