Remember kids, gatekeeping punk is OKAY when it’s done to conservatives who try to co-opt the punk scene!

“Conservative is the new punk” 🤡

“Punk is right wing” Johnny Ramone 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Any band or individual in the scene old or new that are conservatives are POSERS!! Remember, punk went against rock star worship of the 70s!

Patch Pants update

It’s been a few months since I last posted a pic of my pants, here’s the wear that happened:

I oil paint a CONSIDERABLE amount in these (before I discovered an apron) so the paint stains are from that. I don’t care

I removed the pocket. It clashed with the rest of my pants

I’m patching over the Kittie band patch, it was far too big

I painted over the old canvas patches, now they’re nice and shiny :)

Finished patching the lower left cuff, since I was too lazy to do it before

Really debating making a new pair, skinnier ones since these are so “loud” persay. Probably not though, just a thought

prefacing this with I'm not necessarily punk, but I like customizing my clothes. and i wanna help other people find stuff for battle jackets! (and other stuff) I'm not the authority on this, but I still want to give my two cents!! also don't expect much more to this, my profile is pure cringe.

If anyone is starting out and I can help, I'd like too!!

The spike/stud dilemma

one of the biggest issues i've noticed is "where do I find studs/spikes without fast fashion??" which is totally fair. something like that shouldn't have to be a minefield. obviously if you buy from a small business that re-sells them from aliexpress you're still indirectly supporting aliexpress.

im sure there ARE slow fashion alternatives and if anyone knows some please let me know so I can add it!!

BUT here's what I'd recommend.

-goodwill bins, sometimes they have old clothes or broken belts, very rare though. also any thrift store or reclaimed craft store.

-Local businesses, sex shops

-metal paper fasteners

-borrowing. it's inevitable, I know. JOANNs is definitely the best selection imo, but Hobby Lobby is better to steal from. Because They are Terrible. Michael's is OK but less selection usually. They use peal off tags usually which are easy to remove.

-also if you're feeling extra insane, hot topic uses mainly ink tags, which can be removed with heat (look up tutorials on) or just cut off a stud/spike belt. their studs are pretty easy to remove. same with bracelets, they break a lot. ofc it depends on the place whether they use beep beep tags.

-ask people for broken shit!

TEXTILES (the easy part)

-fabric samples are easy to find for free online. get whatever colors you want, i usually stick to black, white, grey and 1-3 other colors. they're usually pretty small so order around until you find the right size. you want cotton and linen, usually upholstery if you're painting on them. if you're not or you're ok working with leather, leather is easy to find too. A lot of companies mentioned how stretchy your material is something not stretchy most cases.

-FACEBOOK!! A.K.A the boomer method. This is where I got almost all of mine!! I recommend downloading FREEBIE as well! I got mine thru that, it links to facebook, nextdoor, and so on. Ofc you can pay for them- but you don't have to! I have lifetime supply of textiles basically bc of this. A lot of people get them for hobbies or work.

-the goodwill bins!!!! you can absolutely find fabric there, it's pretty common actually

-you don't need to steal this tbh it's easy to find second hand and less wasteful

PAINTING

-Facebook, goodwill, or reclaimed/used craft stores if you have them

-borrowing (same places)

-use something like Painter Eye (AR tracing app) and draw out any complex band logos etc.

-you can also use sharpies or whatever nobody's stopping you

Other stuff

-one of the best ways to find stuff is just GO FOR A WALK! Find little shiny objects!

-hardware stores are good so are army surplus

cutting up my clothes and using the acrylic paint I stole from my sister to make queer and political patches, knowing my apostle parents are gonna lose their shit.

I honestly don't care anymore if they get pissed. If they can repeatedly try to force their religion on me I should be allowed to express myself and my views however the fuck I want :)

Making Stuff and Doing Things DIY Guides

Very excited to finally be adding this book to my collection. Its filled with DIY guides submitted by punks/alt people/DIY-ers and from old zines as well. There are SO many topics covered in this book from DIY pins and patches, stamp and zine making, and guitar basics, to pet care, outdoor survival, and even a section on sex ed. Truly an amazing book, I’m glad to finally own it!
