I am not autistic at all, but I'd like to point out that I haven't seen a tag on clothing in over a decade and wouldn't buy it if it had one.

What mythical world do you live in? O:

I definitely wouldn't say I haven't seen any, but I agree that they're way less common. It used to be 100% guaranteed, now I feel like they print right onto the fabric at least half the time 🤷‍♂️

Hey. Wanna see some shit?

But I worry that the stubs that would be left behind if I cut them off would be even scratchier.

Ugh. I guess I've been lucky. I mostly wear t shirts and jeans these days, which could be a factor. Nice nails btw :)
