#differenttshirteveryday number 17. Zeal and Ardor. One of very few t-shirts I own that are not black. I used a ‘glamour glow’ filter on this pic, really brings out my eyes, don’t you think? #zealandardor #devilisfine #glamourshots

#differenttshirteveryday number 16. Front 242. A holiday gift from @nateseubert
Also super industrial pic. Combination shaved head and fake hair, gas mask, Wax Trax band T-shirt.

Long sleeve hoody T-shirt from short lived magazine Coilhouse. It has a hood, but no pockets and is a really lightweight weave, so I feel it counts as a T-shirt. Text says ‘INFORM INSPIRE INFECT’. #coilhouse #informinspireinfect

I got this shirt when I was 15 or 16, the first band T-shirt I ever bought, first T-shirt of any kind that I bought myself I think. It’s older than The Cure T-shirt previously posted by at least a year. It’s used to be black on black, now gray on gray. Has picked up a few bleach and hair dye stains over the years. The seams are slowly ripping apart. It’s amazing soft and comfy. #vintagetshirts #vintagebandtshirts

#divinefeminine (at least that was my interpretation). Heather Gabel for Blood is the New Black, an oddly named and overpriced online shop for weird t-shirts once upon a time. I don’t think it exists anymore. I wasn’t planning on a spooky shirt for #fridaythe13th , but it’s certainly witchy. Also, most of my shirts are #spooky . So that was probably unavoidable.

The Borg. I bought the shirt from a friend on eBay. It said ‘Borg’ on the back, had the Borg emblem (the Borg wouldn’t have an emblem). So I just cut the big Borg head off the front and sewed it onto another shirt. #startrekTNG #theborg #resistanceisfutile #youwillbeassimilated

Very accurate. And I remembered I own another mask. #blackisthemostessentialcolor #vintagegasmask

The Sword. I think of this shirt as the Viking version of the Seal of Virginia, though that’s clearly a Roman influenced design so I don’t think this shirt was intended to be Virginia but Viking. Just another version of a classic motif. Either way. #sicsempertyrannis #thesword #virginiabutviking

Kids XL Empire Strikes Back tshirt from Target. Kid’s clothes can be great if you can fit them, some fun designs and usually cheaper than adult T-shirts. This is an XL but just a large might have fit me ok. #EmpireStrikesBack #starwars #imperialwalker #hoth

Krampus! The reason for the season. It’s Orthodox Christmas weekend so this is still timely right? Yes. Yes it is. This design is by Chad Savage at sinistervisions.com

Datura from Theodore Payne Foundation in Los Angeles. A poisonous plant with enormous night blooming flowers, grows from cracks in the road but that I am struggling to get to thrive in my garden. The key seems to be to entirely ignore it and not try to help it grow at all.

I have had this shirt since high school, which makes it at least 26 years old. It was an XL because I used to wear pretty baggy clothes. It was the style at the time. It’s also possible I couldn’t find the shirt in another size, I don’t remember. Later I altered it to make it a bit slimmer and less boxy. #thecure #vintagetshirts

T-shirt from the You’re Wrong About podcast- which I discovered because I saw someone wearing this shirt and had to ask them where they got it.

This is my pajamas, but it still counts.
Also I have this mask too. Hi.

#differenttshirteveryday number 2
Ok this is my pajamas but a T-shirt is a T-shirt. It still counts.
Also I have this mask too.

Reduce Reuse Reanimate, collab between Baba Yaga’s Biscuit House and arcanebullshit.
This is a great T-shirt and I don’t know how to link to people on other social media (or even if I can) from mastodon but both those guys are on Instagram under those names. Or go to arcanebullshit.com

I’ll be doing my part to get people onto mastodon away from zuck-ville by start my #differenttshirteveryday series here tomorrow.
I don’t know how many t-shirts I own. You’ll all find out with me.
