Gangster Popeye, the inventor of this style and artist behind several of these pieces (I’m not sure about all of them, though they appear to be her style) is a Salvadorean trans woman. Her Patreon is here.

Archaeologists: “Uhhhh, there’s still a lot of debate about how effective leather armor really could have been on a battlefield. Alas, we shall never know.”

Punks: “Hey, fresh cut, the boneheads carry knives sometimes so make sure and lift a good leather jacket. It’ll save your life.”

[equality-is-anarchy]

Layers layers layers! Slashes won’t do shit even to most t shirts but a stab will ignore the shit outa your leathers. Layers will keep the blade from getting as deep as it otherwise would and gives more for it to snag on if it serrated.

Armour has always been about layers.

Example 1200s minor noble: linen shirt, gambeson (layered and quilted linen with wool insulation), chain mail, surcoat, arming cap, helmet, coif, bigger helmet.

Another example Alexander era Macedonian hoplite: linen tunic, greaves, 1" of tightly pressed and laminated linen, helmet (probably with some sort of arming cap/padding inside), big ass shield.

Layers save lives.

[jackironsides]

Yes! Cloth is hard work to cut with a knife. When they were trying to ban (sword) duelling in Europe, they banned people from carrying around shields/bucklers, so your defensive tool was a cloak wrapped around your non-sword fist, with plenty of loose fabric to catch your opponent’s blade. You might get your cloak torn, but you’re less likely to get your skin sliced up, and that’s the important thing.

[jenniferrpovey]

You know what is a surprisingly amazing material for armor?

Silk.

Silk.

The Mongolians used silk vests because silk isn’t broken by an arrow, and you can use the silk to gently pull the arrow back out, even if it’s barbed. They also often used silk as the backing for leather armor.

The first bulletproof vests were made in Japan and Korea. Out of, yup, silk. Silk could stop black powder bullets, but was rendered obsolete by higher powered modern firearms. A combination of silk and metal was experimented with, but dropped because of the expense of silk.

Franz Ferdinand was wearing one such vest when he was assassinated, but it didn’t help because of where he was hit.

The US military is now looking into something called Dragon Silk, which is spider silk made by GMO silkworms, to make body armor that might be more comfortable than the current kevlar vests.

Silk, people.

[o98]

So what is being said here is that the ultimate cold weather armor woukd have the bottom layer silk and the top one wool(water resistant, temp regulating, comfortable and quite cheap)

[jenniferrpovey]

No, it would still probably be silk and leather, with a wool cloak worn over. Leather + silk will stop most things other than modern firearms.

i don’t know why this even needs saying, but poly relationships aren’t for everyone. “love triangles” that happen in real life can’t always be solved by a threesome. your partner cheating on you (or vice versa) is not a result of “toxic monogamy culture”. an unhealthy relationship won’t be made healthy by introducing another person. if you haven’t told your partner that you’re poly prior to entering the relationship, they have every right to be upset if you suddenly want to date or sleep with people who aren’t them. monogamy is not inherently bad or restrictive. and polyamory is not inherently freeing. 

[kipplekipple]

And also, from my years of experience, you can still cheat in polyamorous relationships. It might look different, but cheating means breaking specific boundaries in your relationship, and those boundaries differ from relationship to relationship. Being polyamorous doesn’t mean having no boundaries.
