So im working on a light novel, right now im broke, I will hire artists to turn this into a manhwa but for now its a light novel, this is chapter 1 Chapter 1: The Color of Static The world did not end with a bang. It ended with a cough. Ren Sato sat on the edge of his mattress, a thin slab of synthetic foam that reeked of mildew and chemical coolant. He stared at his hands. They were trembling. The tips of his fingers had turned a dull, flat grey. No trace of the natural tone remained. The skin looked like old ash. Silver Core Sickness. Stage Two. He rubbed his thumb across his fingertips. There was no sensation. No friction. The nerves were already dead or dying. In the Core, that was how...

I ***** the fitting room when it closed at the same time as the rest of the store, but I **** it even more now that it closes thirty minutes beforehand, because it's not *actually* closed. We still have to open it to customers if they press the button, which is on a giant, inconspicuous, *hey-look-at-me!* sign that gets placed right in front of the fitting room. So when some last-minute buttmunch comes in with 10+ clothes to indecisively loosely leave inside out on each hanger, we have to drop *everything* to go open the FR up for them.  Naturally, we aren't allowed to leave the fitting room unattended, so we have to stand there in the front of FR like an ******* and be the ...

Hey everyone! So we were helping clean out my boyfriend's grandparents' house in Germany last week (they're getting up there and the attic hasn't really been touched in forever except for some basic stuff). We’re both from America so is it a German thing? We pulled out a bunch of old boxes and random things his great-grandfather had stored away, and tucked in with some of his clothes was this really long, heavy wool coat. It looks ancient but honestly in pretty decent shape for how old it must be a few small holes/moth bites here and there, but the fabric feels thick and nice. It's this double-breasted greyish-green wool overcoat thing, super long (goes almost to...

So I dont know what's going on with me but I've been struggling lately, I definitely have the urge to touch random things in the store, like I walk past touching everything and going back if I don't feel satisfied with the way I touched it. When I was 12 I used to wear the same clothes every day, especially to school and I did this because clothes would make me "itchy" so I stuck to my "safe" clothes. I still like loose shirts and my hair tied up. I still wear the same clothes for a few days then wear something similar while I wash the clothes I wore. Absolutely dont do long pants or jackets under blankets, that's more of a sensory thing for me. I us...

Hello everyone, I’m posting here to get advice on what to do next. I live in a studio apartment (1 bedroom/1 bathroom), and first saw bedbugs on my mattress back in April 2025, I believe they were brought in due to some secondhand article I bought. At first I didn’t know what they were and attempted to use some store-bought anti-bedbug spray which didn’t work, then I suffered through restless nights before I decided to go to a relative’s house in June 2025. I notified my landlord, he just told me to use some kind of powder to spread around in the room and leave the area for 2 weeks, but I didn’t do it cause I just felt like it wouldn’t be an effective method (according to the ...

Last year, my wife(31f) and I(31m) decided to invest in gold. I had her buy some gold jewelry, but then gold prices rose rapidly and I wanted to pause further purchases. However, she went ahead and bought more without telling me. We argued about this several times last year, but eventually we made up. I originally intended to buy gold as an investment and a form of savings, but she wanted to purchase pieces that were both valuable and beautiful. Yesterday, we went to a gold jewelry store, and I promised her that I would buy her a gold ring this year. I didn’t buy it right then because prices are very high; I’m guessing that at some point this year, gold prices will drop significantly. ...

Why o why do malls and shops shut so early !? - for clarification I’m a kiwi born and raised, but have lived in a few countries over the years and it ***** my mind why everything shuts so dam early. Before anyone says “online shopping blah blah “ - humans still gravitate to malls - go to any decent mall - and they are bustling, people spending money - broke, rich, middle class $$. Using malls as an example, all stores are shut by 6pm - apart from Kmart and the Warehouse - and people are out and about, finishing work, grabbing dinner and most likely would be keen to shop, buy clothes.. anything. After all the doom, gloom and excuses post covid - SURELY the malls and shops would have ...

Hi everyone, I need some advice regarding an online clothing brand called Holy Headen ( holyheaden.in ). I placed a prepaid order on 5th December 2025 for two items: 1)Cherry Raion Sweater 2)Archangel Cuban Shirt Total amount paid: ₹6,465 via UPI. At the time of ordering, cherry raion sweater was marked as a pre order and was supposed to deliver after 24th december. Archangel cuban shirt on the other hand, was in stock and according to the website it was gonna dispatch in 3-4 days according to the store page. It has now been almost 2 months, and the order still hasn’t been delivered. The only way to contact them is via instagram dms as they don't reply even though they have a...

So I have finally decided to pull the trigger on launching my clothing brand after a couple of months of sampling materials and sorting manufacturers. My first production run is coming up next month so I need to get the store sorted. I've seen some clothing brands I actually respect on completely different platforms, some are on Shopify, Esty and even Amazon, and some have custom-built their platforms on platforms I've never even heard of. I guess I would love some advice from anyone actually running clothing brands online and what platforms are you using?

I was deep in a research rabbit hole, reading every 'first customers' post I could find on indie hacker and SaaS subreddits. After a while, a pattern emerged that nobody explicitly states. It wasn't about the channel (Reddit, Twitter, etc.). It wasn't about a killer feature. It was about **extreme specificity of problem**. Every story where someone got traction early involved solving a hyper-specific, often annoying, problem for a very defined group. The more niche, the better. 'A tool for Shopify store owners' is too broad. 'A tool that automatically generates product descriptions for Shopify stores selling vintage clothing based on a photo' is spe...

Heard this story from my friend in the same industry (legal). She has recently started to share an office room with someone who has a mattress on the floor and sleeps there overnight almost every day (under his desk!), keeping clothes in his bag (which he stores in a cupboard in the room). This can’t be normal right? But she seems to think it’s ok and actually a practical choice since he lives far from the office. I couldn’t believe it when I heard it - poor guy. Is it ever that serious that you would rather live in the office than go home and then go back to work??

like the title said, i'm looking for any brands that have men's pants for 24in waist or around that, the lowest i've ever seen any men's pants go is 26, and i've had no luck at thrift stores either. i'm 5'3 and 106lbs, for reference. i've never been able to successfully shop in men's clothing despite being a guy, and have always either bought pants too big or just settled for women's or kids clothing. preferably if anyone knows any alternative brands that go that low in waist (that'd probably be a stretch, alt brands always seem to only go one way in sizing..) any help is appreciated!

I just moved, and I’ve been in the process of unpacking. Among the things I found while packing was a pair of jeans and an old button-down shirt from before my transition. I haven’t worn jeans in over four years, but apparently they still fit. And I’ve been teasing my girlfriend a little over the past month about the idea of me trying to pull off a look somewhere in the range of butch, just to show her something completely different. I’m usually very femme in my presentation, so it would be way out of my norm and my comfort zone. But I love her and I do enjoy the genderfuckery of using my old guy clothes to do something completely different from what I did pre-transition. A friend i...

I'm low on bandwidth right now, and I'm not big on technical expertise. I run a clothing Shopify store and want to know from other store owners which apps they have that are easy to set up and use.

I found a few different names, Hakama, Harem pants, joggers. But when I actually look into those names, the good brand stuff is totally different. Like when I looked for harem pants I found a lot of hippie stuff. Everything that is pictured as what I want ends up being from like Shein or Temu and has terrible reviews. If there's a name I'm missing I'd love to know! And if y'all know any decent stores to get em from, I'm not finding them on like Uniqlo or my other main clothing sites.
