sweater weather or whatever.
the best part about winter to me is my getting to fuck around with gender presentation. i can always fuck around with it, regardless of the weather, but it’s extra special in las vegas. it’s warm somedays while others are oppressively cold and windy. i have found that this shelter cardigan from tradlands aids me…
