Dignity

My dignity was lost

On the day I needed help.

Help to bathe

Help to walk

Help to talk.

My dignity was lost

But my bravery still stands

Because what makes me brave

Is to still be living

With no dignity left

It was Tuesday at 2:15pm. Brad, Chris, Jeremy and Luke were hanging per usual. They bought and made their Halloween costumes back in March while at a stripper flea market just outside of Reno. This, of course, was your 'oh so typical' everyday street wear, a peculiar shade of dress that read mainstream or ultra trendy depending on the infractions of its execution.

Yes, we know. It's difficult to look at the pic and not think everyone dresses like they are 35.... like EVERYONE. You know it's a gold standard when those who actually are 35 don't even react.

What's his head told us this on that one show. You know, the one with the runway, sewing machines, and that woman we see every Halloween in the rags who divorced… an otter was it?

Oh. Otter is a gay thing isn’t it? Just like pank, gurl, and… Well, isn’t it all gay?!?

Ok. That’s not true or more of us would be test tubers by now. We’re still on the YouTube with the occasion designer baby popping out of China or some overdone upper crust of Europe-adjacent. When will parents learn no matter how much you change a child, even if you alter their DNA, they will always become what they are?

Ultimately, we each direct our own expression. No one creates art on your behalf or tells another how to feel. We will each decide here too.

Dear me, that was a tangent wasn’t it? So…where were we? Seal. Ah. Yes. That. We got a name! This one divorced, and as far as we know all involved survived and carry on otter-free.

What was the name of the show though? You know the one with that butler who has all the catch phrases and pretends to help the contestants but obviously doesn't because have you seen some of the outfits?! The name escapes me but someone on the show called out everyone dressing like they were 35 right before fashion finally threw itself down three flights of stairs to pass in a respectable manner.

That’s what you do after waking up and finding yourself on life support from being declared ‘over,’ ‘obsolete’ and ‘pointless’ countless times for decades. Such horrific headlines and worst of all, no one who declared it dead ever bothered to throw it funeral. Well, there’s no pretty there.

We say, good for you fashion. We can run with your tips and style now so leave you to finally rest in peace. We’ve raised the dead too many times. I swear dignity exists only because we still have the word for it.

I think.

D-I-G-N-I-T-Y.

Yes. It’s all there. Ok. Great. Now we’ve held a private service and said our goodbyes. Please style on and leave fashion be.

BTW - This... yes, this whole post thing is PRIDE. Nuance darling, nuance. We taught you this upfront when we went over infractions.

Ok. So, believe it or not, all of this hullabaloo actually leads us up to....

Just The Fashion Tip #9328 : Tops and bottoms are not required to communicate either.

Right?!? We do more than blow minds around here at BradAndChris.com.

Great WERQ boiz. When the gays do pedestrian, they DO PEDESTRIAN!

Light vs. Dark

I'm noticing a strange relationship between what a community says it is and how it actually acts. Having snooped around on the Internet quite a bit, it's disturbing to see this trend hold true everywhere I look.

There's these dark corners of the world where the people are broken and twisted and hurting. These outcasts from society are left to suffer by themselves. Yet, despite their own conditions, they treat each other with honor and respect, and do their best to help each other through their messes. It's a certain dignity rarely seen in society at large these days.

Then there's a disturbingly large amount of religious communities (especially Christian), who are supposed to be beacons of light and goodness, that do the opposite. They have this righteous and elite attitude not unlike nobility, and expect others to fall in line. Instead of being helpful and loving and caring, they push others away, saying "you must be this holy to enter" like it's some sort of club. Not that they have to care anyway; life is already set up for them, they don't need to worry about anyone else!

Obviously there are counterexamples to this, but these are the general trends - the "dark" places are showing more love than the "light." Why is this? I'm not saying it should be the opposite - I'm glad there is love in the world at all, especially in the darkness - but shouldn't the light be showing an equal amount of love or more? Like, you know, we're supposed to?

Instead we lapse into whatever's comfortable, taking pride in our own self-worth and scoffing at anything we find reprehensible without doing anything to change it. We have the opportunity to help fix what's broken, and instead we cast it aside like it's garbage? For shame!

For anyone who's looking at me like I'm a hypocrite simply by typing this and yelling at the world while sitting on my own high horse... to paraphrase my dad, you can't preach at people without doing some self-examining of your own first.

(from "The Faithful Heart") Couldn't Get Closer To Anything With Staying Still, So I Got Scared When

(from "The Faithful Heart") Couldn't get closer to anything with staying still, so I got scared when I saw a bad poetry. At the heads of fools, gonna gather bones of peaches and throw'em, and then giggle and laugh for you sons of bitches.

Wings of imagiantion Fly and soar Through the wind and scorching blue And never bow,never surrender Merely glide then touch the sky.. And abandon the reality that lay ..... assunder ~ -animalina-
