Deep down, Brad and Chris’ neighbor Luke knew there was an “I” “aye” or “eye” in team. He just didn’t know which one.

The new aesthetic: employablecore
It’s where I take all of these individualising aspects of myself I fought tooth and claw for and hide them, rip them away until I look palatable enough to work a cash register. The tattoos I won, the hair I grew out, out of spite for overbearing religious relatives and then for myself, all covered and trimmed until I can be seen as desirable again to sell my labour. The way I learned to laugh out loud, the visible tics, the fully realised Me that I just came to love only recently — he’s going elsewhere for a while.
At least when I was selling my body, nobody expected me to change. Now that I desire to clean my hands I discover the soap comes in only one brand, and I hate the supermarket stench of it.
