REAL TALK: WE ALL NEED TO STOP SHOPPING AT HOT TOPIC

THEY STEAL ART

THEIR SIZING IS PRETTY RIDICULOUS. 

THEY QUIT SELLING GOTH AND PUNK SHIT ALTOGETHER.

AND THIS LATEST SHIT STORM

MARKETING ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIPS. HOW LOVELY.

Hot topic went down the shitter long ago and it’s time to find a new place to get your totally awesome fandom inspired t-shirts and goth gear. Here are some sites where you can get your expressive clothing without feeding into this corporate shit monster of a store. Most if not all of the art on these sites are posted by the original artist. (I’m not sure about the goth stuff, you might have to check, some are brand name though so it should be fine)

There’s more, but yeah. 

Man I knew my knowledge of fashion would be useful one day. 

Sourpuss and Angry Young And Poor are fucking awesome seriously recommend them.

Also Fright Rags are one of the best places for licensed horror merch (and a couple band licenses) and they’re super nice people as well.

I also recommend hitting up Kreepsville 666 and Switchblade Clothing directly, they’ve got some neat stuff.
