Instead of celebrating the coronation on Saturday, May 6, consider donation to the Trussell Trust, which supports over 1,200 food bank centres across the UK.
i was put on this earth to romanticize things, wear cute clothes, knowing a bunch of weird stuff, being flirty, saying unpleasant things, eating fruit, having great tits and the best taste in music
im really not trying to be mean here but this one tag from a reblog just so colossally missed the point i cant let it go unacknowledged
the whole message of this post is that the clothes are being made regardless of whether anybody is going to be purchasing them. they’re made in sweatshops, shipped to the other side of the globe, put on racks in thousands of stores, and whatever doesn’t sell is dumped in the fucking desert to make room on those racks for the next shipment.
“buy secondhand only” in response to this is such an egregious misunderstanding and it’s doing the exact fucking thing that is implicitly being criticized by this tweet, which is that individual consumer choices are totally disconnected from the global production of consumer goods and therefore moralizing about making the Correct choices and imploring people to go to fucking goodwill instead of tj maxx is meaningless
