Thrifted Eras
A kid in a Nirvana smiley tee, AirPods in, scrolling. Who's making money off the refusal that band was built on? That question opens into something stranger: not a story about selling out, but about what gets stripped when the body leaves the clothes. From grunge to generative AI, from midnight Phantom Menace showings to a waitress in bowling shoes whose name is lost, a meditation on participation, finitude, and the rack with no bodies.
