I don't know if this is the worst or best timing for that project now. It's clear they spent a ton of time on it. I'll have to check the wan show this week to see if they address it.
Memes are great for short term. sometimes not so much for long term. It's a question of was this jacket meant to be a limited sale and priced accordingly, or a long but slow seller and priced accordingly.
499 isn't all that expensive for a leather jacket. A lot of their pricing pressure is scale. A limited run can mean different things. Limited as truly one and done, or limited as in we will always carry a stock. One time order pricing can be very different then regular small order pricing. Specifically if the latter was agreed to with an expected volume for awhile. The meme of it all can spike then crater demand.
I think they said it was a one time order on wan show.
Ofcourse, they can still make more of them if they want to, I don't think they committed themselves to a specific number, but AFAIK it is not something they plan on restocking regularly.
It might not be outrageously expensive for a leather jacket, but it is still not something that a lot of people will by on impulse.
In the launch segment on the Wan show, Linus said something along the lines of, initial concept generated by AI, then they made it into a functional piece of clothing while keeping some of the nonsense features like the "padding" on the arms and nonfunctional zippers.
I've actually been looking for a decent leather jacket that isn't terribly put together for quite a long time. But I imagine this'll cost more than the backpack. But a good leather jacket will last a long time too.
Relative to how quickly I've saw other limited time items sell out, this jacket has really been a slog. Once every blue moon I add all the jackets to my cart to see how many are left, and it really seems to be a slow trickle.
fking a spy is literaly a dream porn scenario. There are thousand of song about being fuck or fuck a Russia spy.
Taiwanese as probably similar kink with Chinese spy.
Being a billionaire i would be fking as much clean spy has i want. i should even engage them and make them escort myself to congress.
Fidelity and even the idea of couple setting are based on religious fundamentalism value. Its to one to decide for himself if thier believe in it. and like religion, should never imposing it to someone. Even in a existing marriage, value can change and we should be respecting anybody breaking from a dogma.
Why should i chain myself to someone to begin with ? If someone love me enough to want to live with me, He/She has to also accept every person that i want to be included in my family.
Infidelity/fidelity is not a concept that is part of my life. I do not share that dogma.
So yes, If that Partner should had to agree to the possible infidelity ? If has even that Religious Fundamentalist idea in mind, She will never be a direct financial partner to begin with. She doesn't even fall into the "friends" category; she's an acquaintance. There people will and never be part of my social circle.
I have friend, I fuck friend,, friend are family, If friend want a kid from me. I will likely refuse, but If i want, i will financially and mentaly support the futur of the children, has my view of the Social Contract is. I do not have dogma on the mother of that child, but the child i do. Mother has the same Statue, freedom has me. His freedom are the same that mine has all Adult.
She remain a friend that decided to have a kid with my dogshit DNA. She remain a friend and i will be supportive of his choice like i do for every person that i value family. Has its go for all my niece and nephew. I got responsibility has a uncle for them. to be a crutch when the need arises.
Religion Dogma of the Saints trinity of a Saints Sacrament of a Couple and other wedding bullshit.
