another piece of writing by minh-ha t. pham. the abstract:

"To bring forth a world without sweatshops, we have to accurately identify the sources of sweatshops. As I explain here, sweatshops aren’t the results of individual brands behaving badly but a broad configuration of state, capital, and cultural political interests that I classify as sweatshop or free market feminism. Without a serious critique of the sweatshop’s structural reality, any efforts to make fashion more ethical can only be what prison abolitionists call “reformist reforms.” Reformist reforms pursue gentler and more inclusive forms of labor and resource extraction rather than the abolition of this extractive industry altogether.

The discussion concludes with examples of sweatshop abolition in practice: the garment worker collectives called Homework4Health (Los Angeles) and Blue Tin Production (Chicago). "

The sole requirement to be a product manager is that you have a collared shirt and that shirt is tucked into your trousers. Anything else can be different, you can wear almost any shoes, for example from crazy runners to sensible brogues, boots, the trousers can be absolutely fucked faded jeans or black polyester slacks from NEXT, belt no belt etc but you have to wear a collared shirt and tuck it into the trousers. Those are the rules.

What's the deal with bamboo clothing? All my research suggests it's basically plastic but I got sent some free bamboo socks in the post which are really nice so I bought a continental bamboo tee and it also seems quite nice for a summer t shirt? Nothing amazing obviously but very comfy and doesn't soak up sweat like cotton but doesn't have the look of a technical tee.

It's not going to replace linen or anything but it is a lot cheaper at least...

[frannyglass]

bamboo is just rayon/viscose isn't it?

The washer at new place APPEARS to run a hot cycle when set to cold and a cold cycle when set to hot. The lines are placed correctly as far as I can tell. Feels like every load of laundry is a roll of the dice.
