Niche is the new market. The saturation of “generalistic” influencers is real - in every sector. My feed is flooded with travel influencers slash foodies slash makeup babes showing off their butts agains spectacular backdrops.

Bring back the real deal: niche.

liquid death x elf is an interesting collab. i feel like the consumer bases for both would be disjoint sets, but maybe that was the appeal of the collab.

your questions on subculture appropriation are interesting though. do you think “subculture appropriation” would be less offensive / present less of a pause if people paid homage to the origins of what they are appropriating?

but as you said, so many mainstream things today weren’t always mainstream. is it ok to just let cultures & trends come & go as they please?
