⊹˚₊‧ twenty (20) BF!SUNARIN headcanons!!

yes, you read that right. it's 20 hcs!! bcs it was his bday :3

ps! if this post seems familiar—i actually posted this on my old blog months before privating the post :> and i love this post sm that i rlly want to repost it here T-T uhm, anyway! this is also the newly edited version 😁

bf!sunarin who loves sending tiktoks to you—his entire tiktok fyp. he doesn’t care if the tiktok was relatable or not, he would still send it either way. you can’t really blame him—his tiktok fyp is frankly interesting. it is also common for him to send you some of the latest couple trends along with the message saying, “let’s do this trend.”

bf!sunarin who loves posting you in his instagram stories more than anything. he even made an instagram highlight on his profile dedicated to you. he posts you a lot on his stories to the point that his followers thought that his instagram account is a stan account about you. 

bf!sunarin who would always carry a hair tie with him in case you needed it. he would even help you tie your hair if you wanted to. you want a simple ponytail or a braided updo? he can nail both. thank his skills for he got those after being his little sister’s personal hairstylist when they were younger. 

bf!sunarin who is a great photographer who loves and enjoys taking candid pictures of you. he even made a folder dedicated to candid pictures of you. sometimes he would even be such a tease and make a meme out of your candid pictures before sending it to you.

bf!sunarin who still loves taking those “soft launch” photos with you and posting them on his social media even if almost everyone already knows that the two of you are dating. 

bf!sunarin who loves coming over to your home—uninvited or not—to have some quality time with you. most of the time the two of you would just end up cuddling together and watching movies until both of you falls asleep. 

bf!sunarin who will often message you to ask if you want to go to a convenience store or any other fast food chain available in the most ungodly hours. sometimes he would randomly drive by your home to come to pick you up even if you haven’t replied to his text message yet. 

bf!sunarin who enjoys having midnight walks and car rides with you. he finds this as the best time to have a one-on-one conversation with you since it would just be the two of you and the silence of the night. and the most common topics that the two of you always talk about are the “remember when” conversations. he would even pull up his phone and show some receipts like photos or videos he had taken during those times. 

bf!sunarin who will definitely make a spotify playlist about you and your relationship. he also loves playing those playlists whenever the two of you go on your occasional midnight car rides or just road trips in general. 

bf!sunarin who loves seeing you wearing his hoodies and jerseys—especially his high school jersey. he also likes taking candid pictures of you wearing those before putting them in a separate folder in his gallery. 

bf!sunarin who always holds your hand in public. and if he’s not holding your hand, his hand would either be placed on your waist or at the small of your back. 

bf!sunarin who is absolutely physically affectionate towards you in private. he loves peppering you with kisses on your forehead, jaw, neck, and nape, before giving you a passionate kiss on the lips.

bf!sunarin who loves spooning you whenever the two of you cuddle or sleep together on the bed. and if the two of you are sleeping on the couch, you bet you would be sleeping on top of his body with his arms wrapped around your body.

bf!sunarin who will always try to find you among crowds of people—may it be during a party that he knows you’ll attend or on the benches whenever he has a match. 

bf!sunarin who will always mention your name during special mentions in interviews and awards—highlighting that you are very significant in his life. 

bf!sunarin who likes talking about you positively to his family and friends. he isn’t such an open person to his family, but when it comes to you? he’s definitely talking about you in full detail even if they just asked a simple yes or no question about you. 

bf!sunarin who likes listening to your interests and rants. you like this certain book or video game? he’s listening—he might even try it out for himself. you find this one coworker of yours annoying? he’s listening. he’s like your living diary but don’t worry, your secrets are safe with him.

bf!sunarin who likes listening to any tea you have to spill. he would even share his thoughts and knowledge about the tea that you are sharing with him. and of course, he also likes spilling you the tea he has gathered all over social media and in person.

bf!sunarin who may not be good at studying and cooking but will try his best to help you out. you don’t have the time to prepare some snacks for yourself while studying? he’s already getting his car keys to go to the nearest fast food chain to get you a takeout. you’re going to make dinner? you bet he is already on his way to buy the ingredients that you’ll need. 

bf!sunarin who suddenly insists that the two of you should try making waxed hands for some quality time with each other. little did you know that he’s going to use the waxed hands that you guys will make to measure your ring size so that he can finally buy an engagement ring and pop you the question.

I think this is the guy:

I absolutely thought I posted this, but when I was going through some of my older drafts, this was here -so I'm incredibly sorry I thought I posted this for folks to see. If anyone wants to view the original tiktok video made about the man who was assaulting women in New York City, there are descriptions of violence and abuse against women who were attacked -so heavy content warning.

I also wanted to note that the Creator said they were going to create a self defense class for people interested because she "refuses to be a victim", and I just wanted to note that regardless if you're a black belt in Taekwondo or Karate, or a literal MMA fighter -the blame is always on the attacker/assaulter -and if you have ever been assaulted (a victim/survivor of a heinous violent crime it is NOT your fault). I'm not saying that's what she was alluding to, but I feel very bittersweet when WE are expected to be able to protect ourselves in a misogynistic/hateful world where the people attacking us (statistically, men) aren't held accountable for their violence in the first place.

It just makes me think of a dangerous slippery slope this can go down like 'didn't you have a weapon or something to defend yourself from an attack?,' or badgering women why they were alone/didn't just listen/or didn't 'avoid' certain places or why they didn't take self defence classes because that's what patriarchal cultures and institutions like police do.

Again, I just have mixed feelings about the Creator's message towards the end, but overall this is important to talk about. No person should EVER have to fear walking out anywhere in the world. Their neighborhoods should always be safer spaces, and it astounds me that a majority of us can't feel entirely safe in this world because of guys like this.

On the topic of gatekeeping and how social media turns childhood and teenage nostalgia/trauma/interests into memes and trends

This is a hot one. I got into a fight with an ex-friend about this, which was a big thing that led to the death of our friendship. Looking back, I don't blame the guy. I have had my fair share of songs that I used to have on repeat back in high school and got made fun of for listening to. Can You Feel My Heart by Bring Me The Horizon was a big one, now known as a sigma male meme song. Another one is King For A Day by Pierce The Veil. A third one is Fall For You by Secondhand Serenade. Take any emo nostalgia song that you hear being played all over social media, and you have a peek into my high school playlist.

If you're into core music, specifically deathcore, you have To The Hellfire by Lorna Shore, now made a meme by thousands on TikTok, highlighting Will Ramos's pig squeals towards the end of the song. If you're on emo or metal TikTok/Reels in general, you will hear the same nostalgia songs over and over. The same can be said with goth tiktok and any other alternative subculture. Even if you're not part of a specific subculture, there will always be that one song or artist that used to be a huge part of you growing up that has now turned into a trendy internet meme, which is why a lot of people have expressed their frustration on the app about "songs being brought to TikTok and turned into ___" (coquette, sigma, scenecore, big titty goth gf, e-girl, etc.)

I will admit that I have gotten so sick of hearing Pierce the Veil and Bring Me The Horizon on social media that I have stopped listening to them entirely. At the same time, social media has introduced me to new songs and artists - Violent VIRA, La Dispute, Destroy Lonely, Odetari, 6arelyhuman, Crystal Castles, Aphex Twin, Whirr, Lana Del Rey, Cocteau Twins, and Alex G, to name a few.

The same can be said with fashion trends. It's like every year (or every few years), there's a new trend. As of right now, it's Stanley Cups, even though I still have my hydroflasks from university from back when VSCO girls were still in.

I remember the era of TikTok when everyone was a mallgoth, indie kid, or a bunny hat scenecore kid, a.ka. the Brooklyn Bloodpop era - this was the year that introduced me to artists like Jazmin Bean, Sewerslvt, and Crystal Castles. Then I noticed a bunch of lovetheflex drainer girl lookalikes-- this is when I got introduced to artists like Yeat, Bladee, and DestroyLonely. Then, the year after that, I noticed an uptick in people on my FYP dressing in trad-goth attire - this is how I got introduced to post-punk bands like Bauhaus and Siouxsie and the Banshees. Now, I'm seeing a lot of "lainpilled coquette" "grippy sock vacation" "im so silly :3" "femcel" content and "Deftones girls" - this is how I learned about artists like Fiona Apple, Salvia Palth, Radiohead, Deftones, Bôa, and Aphex Twin.

Coquette is the new trend, and it has been associated with pushing harmful agendas like EDs/fat phobia and glorifying mental illness, even linking young women to the alt-right pipeline by pushing trad-wife lifestyles. Keep in mind that a couple of years ago, e-girls were the ones who were previously thought to be the ones who were falling down this pipeline, given YouTube's algorithm of linking gamers to right-wing videos (hello, 2016!). Some people will even liken the coquette or cutecore aesthetic to a more feminine, soft version of being a sigma male or a femcel.

Will finish this probably tomorrow since I'm tired. But this is a huge topic that I have been dying to address.

[sleepiestwizard]

my entire tiktok fyp has been transformed into parrot videos and im not quite sure how this happened but i blame grian

[ninelivesastrology]

tw: coercive control, stalking, cyberstalking, sexual abuse, manipulation, abusive interracial relationships, sextortion, victim blaming, kink critical, misogynoir, racism, raceplay mention, abusive women, sex trafficking in reference to chattel slavery, smear campaign

I noticed this pattern of manipulation in my life from women that prey on me and the tactic is oversharing something embarrassing (whether it is true or not) just to create this false sense of closeness and trust just because you're both women. It's kind of like, "You tell me your secret and I'll tell you mine," and it's just off to me. You think you're meeting someone non judgmental and it's a set up because they're attempting to extract blind trust from you and with that trust comes information they will use against you before they "fall out" with you.

There are some women that just want to blackmail you and extort you and will do so on behalf of a man off shit that man told them. Like when people talk about rape apologists, accomplices, they usually mean other men. Nah. Not just them.

I think sometimes I'd rather be in a room full of stoic men than Chatty Kathy women because men are less volatile. And I know that sounds crazy, but it's not???

Men will literally use another woman to harm you sexually. She will be the one to deliver your laced drink or lace it herself.

That's why I don't really get close to other women, especially the oversharers because the most probable scenario is that they will overshare about you down the line and that's the least hurtful scenario. Least one.

I remember this yt girl literally tried to kick off our friendship by telling me and my pet rat that she shitted all herself in her boyfriend's car. I really think she was pressed to find out what my sexual kinks were because she would talk to me about how her bf would literally beat her up during sex, like showing me daro bruises and how much she loves it and it was really disturbing to me because my abuser (with a history of martial arts so he knew) had strangled me. I dunno, some shit is just ... Like you could kill someone.

Liks when her boyfriend cheated on her (which is something to be expected I guess), she got crazy attached to this one guy in the Marines and she told me she wanted him to make her lick his dirty boots which is... No comment, not surprised. Like... wow. Well, that was the same person who told me people were saying I was into raceplay. Because it just looks bad if my abuser constantly says slurs more than anyone else I know, so it has to be twisted into some type of degradation I initiated, absolving him of all blame.

So anyway, I found out this yt girl was BFFs with the girl my abuser was cheating on me with while I was falsely imprisoned by him at his house and constantly begging to leave me alone. To this day, I believe they were trying to get me to admit to things so that my abuser could use the, "It's just a kink!" excuse because he was terrified of me coming forward (I mean I wasn't going to, but all the pre-emptive attempts to know what i was doing...?) and that's even more racially charged considering the whole "Black women can't be raped because they're literally succubi" belief that goes around.

Like I remember getting a new Iphone 6 months after he stole my SIM card and gave it to his portable toilet sidebitch and I logged into my [hacked] TikTok and my FYP was filled with posts about "somnophilia" and "CNC" like deadass trying to frame me as if I was into these things and rewriting the entire history so the sadistic sexual things he did to me seemed consensual. This was the 2021-2022 TikTok algorithmic. These are all his fantasies. I believe the raceplay shit was his, too, because he treats me like a runaway slave instead of a person trying to move on.

And I said it before, but I was undiagnosed chronically ill and would sleep for hours like... Like I genuinely think all of this shit unfolded because my pet rat told him I was going through his computer and he was terrified. It just lines up with me asking him why he liked a specific type of sex and he was like, "It's taboo," no further comment like I just see that shit differently now like oh... Multiple.

Like a part of systematic racism is how Black women are punished more harshly and sex is indeed social, so social punishments are harsher, so the truth is that in regards to sexuality, it will be exaggerated, you will be projected onto, you will be violated. Black females are never victims to begin with, so someone could coerce you into doing something and you'll be blamed for it. We are not allowed to be liberated sexually because us being sex trafficked in slavery was the norm.

So I genuinely think the raceplay projection was to also isolate me from any genuine and sexually compatible partners because that is some gross niche shit that could invite white partners who would abuse me if I didn't know this shit was being said about me. And this is the part where I add that my abuser was into MFM threesomes, so I dunno.

I think he wanted to spite me because I left him and was with a person who was biracial and white-passing, like has a European ancestry. It just feels like my abuser was lunging at any reason that would paint me in a certain light when in reality, I wasn't socialized to date or even think of men, so when they approached me, I didn't have expectations or boundaries. It was never about yt boi of the month. The closest thing I got was those Sarah Dessen books.

I dunno, he was always very threatened by European white men and Iearned he fascinated with Black people having sex and I think it was because these men are often believed to have larger dicks than him, it's really sad how someone's insecurities can just fuel an abusive interracial relationship. And of course I was the punching bag for it all. What is that quote? About how men love other men?

And I wanna say I think people forget that the European standard of beauty for men was shoved down our throats, too. Even the phrase, "big white cock" being yelled at me is like proof that he watched so much porn. Too much porn.

God, dubs are just a different breed. It’s jarring to switch to subs.

[7-oh-ta1]

Its kind of shocking to me how many people are willing to write off twdg characters as liabilities when the entire first game is about protecting a walking liability not because you have to but because you want to. Lee didn't have to get Clem down from that treehouse, but he did because she needed protection and he knew he could at least somewhat provide it.

Then immediately people call Ben, Nick, Sarah, and somehow even Gabe liabilities and will type paragraph upon paragraph about how useless they are compared to Clementine. I adore Clem, but did they even play the first game? She tried to not be a burden, but in some cases it simply couldn't be helped and Lee had to protect her -- or remember that one time she conversed with a complete stranger on her walkie-talkie for at least a month without informing Lee (in fact she lied to him about it being broken!), and then she ran away with said stranger because she was easily manipulated into believing he knew her parents which resulted in Lee getting bitten and eventually dying, along with Kenny and Ben's deaths as well? Nobody blames Clem for that, she just made a mistake. A BIG one, but to be frank: so what. There's nothing wrong with making mistakes and especially when people should be taking care of each other. We care about Clementine and we're just happy to be reunited even at such great costs. (I'm aware that Kenny doesn't stay dead but we're talking about s1 not s2)

So my question is, why can't people provide that benefit of the doubt to other characters? Clem is Lee's deuteragonist, so it makes sense that she helps us the most and is present for the majority of scenes. That doesn't make the supporting cast any less valuable. Again, especially in a series that kicks off with immediately handing you a "liability" to take care of. The story was never about who was useful and who isn't. They're just people. Honestly what the fuck is going on with the majority of people who play these games because every forum I chance upon or tiktok on my fyp is just some hateful asshole 🤷‍♂️ It's not like, a BOTHER, it's just so weird to me

WHAT IS WRONG WITH MARAUDER STANS?

So, I was just on Tiktok and I stumbled across this edit of Remus and Sirius and how Remus felt after the prank, and it was about betrayal and there was a sad song playing.

Then, I go through the comments, and I see a bunch of comments victim-blaming Severus, acting like it never happened, and making shit up (as always).

Take a look at some of them:

The prank NEVER happened!

I feel like Snape used Legillimency or Veritaserum on Sirius because Sirius would never do that to Lupin.

Why are people getting mad at Sirius? Snape asked Sirius and Sirius gave him the information he needed.

I didn’t want to reply to the comments cause then more Marauders shit was gonna appear on my fyp so I’ll respond to these claims here:

“The prank NEVER happened!”

It’s canon. Y’all literally call us apologists when you’re straight up denying bad things your fave did. You never see Snape fans claiming that Severus never joined the Death Eaters or that the Prophecy fiasco never happened. The gaslighting is crazyyy

Acknowledge your faves have flaws please.

The “prank” is a MAJOR part of Sirius’s character. It’s the worst thing he ever did in his entire life, you’re ignoring a big part of his character (and him as a person).

“I feel like Snape used Legillimency or Veritaserum on Sirius because Sirius would never do that to Lupin.”

You feel like? Nah, you just don’t wanna admit your fave has flaws.

If he used Legillimency or Veritaserum then we would’ve been told that.

Then why didn’t Sirius say so? In PoA he literally admits it and brags about it, and we never see him say anything like “I’m so sorry Moony! He used ______ on me! I swear I didn’t mean it!” so stop making things up and pretending they’re canon. Sirius and Remus never refer to it as anything other than a trick.

Sirius would never do that to Lupin? Babe, he literally treated him like shit, and Remus was always an afterthought to Sirius.

“Why are people getting mad at Sirius? Snape asked Sirius and Sirius gave him the information he needed.”

Why are we getting mad at Sirius? Perhaps it’s because he consciously lured an innocent, curious teenager to a deadly trap? Oh, and showed no remorse. I think that might be it.

Snape asked? Uhh no he didn’t. Look at this:

"He has his reasons...you see, Sirius here played a trick on him which nearly killed him, a trick which involved me --"

Black made a derisive noise. "It served him right," he sneered. "Sneaking around, trying to find out what we were up to . . . hoping he could get us expelled . . .”

Where did it say Severus asked Sirius? I’d love to read that part.

3. Sirius “gave him the information he needed”? What

Again, look at the text:

"He has his reasons . . . you see, Sirius here played a trick on him which nearly killed him, a trick which involved me --"

Remus here says Sirius tricked Severus so obviously Sirius didn't just go like “Ayo Sniv, there's my buddy being all werewolfy in the shrieking shack-”. Hmm, and what is tricking? Is it... withholding information? Maybe.

4. If Severus did ask... so what? Sirius still shouldn’t expose his friend’s secret????

God, I just hate them so much. They deserve a punch in the face.

Life wasn’t simple for Virgil. It never had been and it never will be. No matter how many times he had managed to just about pick himself up, always something had to drag him back down again. This time, it was Roman.

A thousand thoughts twisted through his mind as he fell onto his bed, staring at the ceiling, and thought about one person: Roman.

Roman was the typical popular guy in high school. He was the drama kid who got all the roles, as well as all the girls and the teachers and everyone loved him, and Virgil couldn’t blame them. He was awfully handsome, incredibly kind, respectful, the most angelic singer and… he had a girlfriend.

Virgil frowned sadly, sitting up and remembered the time he saw them, that Friday, together. His hand was around her waist, his smile was pure and seemed genuine and his eyes were full of… love.

Oh, how badly Virgil wanted Roman to look at him that way. There were many instances where he in fact did, or at least he thought so. Those stolen glances were enough to make his heart soar and he cherished whenever Roman even just looked his way… but that never happened anymore.

The golden days of his life, Virgil would cherish forever. Those were the days where they were most definitely in love, even though they were forced to hide it. If he was to be entirely honest, Virgil genuinely found it, in a way, fun to keep their love from the world. Times where they shared stolen kisses behind closed doors and held hands under the tables for at least a second were honestly the best moments of Virgil’s life.

What he wouldn’t give to experience those again.

“We can’t be together Virgil!” The fragment of the dreaded memory flashed through Virgil’s mind. He tried to block it out, but eventually gave up and just let it flow. “Can’t you see? It’s not right! The world will never accept us, we can’t carry on like this!”

“I don’t care Roman!” Virgil snapped, raging tears racing down his cheeks. “I don’t care what they think! I don’t care about anything or anyone else apart from you. They can laugh at me, they can beat me, they can be as homophobic as they want towards me! But I won’t care as long as I have you.” Virgil’s voice softened at the last sentence as he stared intently into Roman’s eyes, letting him know that he was deadly serious.

There was a moment of silence between them. Virgil stayed quiet as he allowed his words to sink in, and the longer he held Roman’s gaze, the more he began to see the impact of them all setting in.

Thinking they had finally started to calm down, Virgil raised a hand to hold Roman’s cheek, until it was swatted away harshly, and Roman started to walk out the locker room. Out of instinct, Virgil reached out and grabbed his wrist.

“Roman… please,” he begged softly. He stared at him desperately and he dared to assume that Roman’s eyes also displayed the same pain but he wasn’t able to clarify it, since Roman yanked his hand out of Virgil’s grasp and turned away.

“Just stay away from me Virgil. It’s best for both of us,” he said, his voice breaking at the last word.

“I love you,” Virgil muttered for the final time, making Roman freeze. A glimmer of hope rose within Virgil, but it was quickly struck down.

“I did too.”

The next day, Virgil saw Roman again as he was sitting on the fields, drawing in his sketchbook. Before, these times would be spent together, Virgil teaching Roman how to draw by his request, or him helping Roman with his lines in the play.

Now, they were always apart. But Virgil still sketched Roman whenever he had the chance. He couldn’t help it; something inside him compelled Virgil to draw the young boy now distant from him and he always cried whenever he did. Virgil missed Roman so much, at least he had his drawings to remember him by.

Roman’s girlfriend then came and sat by him. Virgil’s heart burned with jealousy. That envy soon melted into despair, however and he couldn’t bear to look at them anymore. He closed his book and walked away from under the tree he was in, feeling hot tears starting to prick at his eyes. Virgil should be happy for Roman now that he found someone, but he just couldn’t help but desperately wish for her to be him.

As he ran away, Roman turned his head in the nick of time to see Virgil go. His heart lurched seeing Virgil with his hood up; he knew it wasn’t a good sign. Curiosity then sparked within him when he saw a page fall from a book he was holding.

Excusing himself from his girlfriend, Roman walked over to where Virgil sat before and picked up the paper. It was turned on a blank side, and he recognised it as a page from one of his sketchbooks. Hesitantly, he turned it over, to reveal a beautiful drawing of him sitting in the grass. It was greyscale, rather than the usual colour Virgil used to draw in before and when he looked up, he managed to just catch a glimpse of his signature purple-patched hoodie before Virgil walked around the corner.

Folding the paper, Roman put it into his pocket and masked his frown with a smile, returning back to the boring, black and white life he parents forced him into.

Since Tuesday I’ve been thinking that Friday is a day closer than it actually is that I was so confused with school and homework. 

I blame Wandavision because I’m just waiting every Friday for a dose of serotonin and especially since now the twins are on the show.

How TikTok Hauls Are Taking Some Of The Mystery Out Of Plus-Size Shopping

When the pandemic put a hold on in-store shopping, one of the leading complaints about online shopping was the inability to try things on before spending the money. After all, buying all the items we’re interested in, many of which we know we’ll have to send back, is not only a waste of resources and time but, for many, financially impossible. What’s worse is trying to decipher the wild inconsistency of sizing among retailers (even in the same store, products labeled a size 16 can vary drastically; it’s even more confusing when brands use their own proprietary nomenclature for sizing). For plus-size shoppers though, this guessing game was a problem long before the pandemic, as most department stores and retailers that sell plus-sizes don’t carry them in stores, leaving plus-size women with no other option but to blindly online shop. 

That’s where TikTok’s growing community of honest plus-size fashion haulers comes in. From Remi Bader’s viral “realistic hauls” to Katrina Nichole’s uplifting and informative ones, content creators on TikTok are taking the mystery out of shopping online when plus-size. 

“When we try on something that’s normally our size, and yet it doesn’t fit, we often end up blaming ourselves,” Bader tells Refinery29. “My mum would beg me to go shopping, and I’d always say no. It always ruined my day.” As she got older, she learned what clothing worked for her, and eventually found humour in the way so many brands mislead e-commerce customers by using styling tricks and hacks to make a garment appear one way when it fits entirely differently in real life.

After one particularly baffling online order arrived from PrettyLittleThing during lockdown, Bader, who had just joined TikTok at that point, decided to film herself trying on her purchases. “I was hysterically laughing just looking at myself,” she recalls. “I posted it, and it blew up.” Soon afterward, thousands of messages flooded her TikTok inbox commiserating along with her, and thanking her, too. 

According to Bader, her hauls are successful because everyone can relate to that disheartening feeling when you believe something should fit, but it doesn’t: “Everyone gets so upset thinking it’s their fault,” she explains. “What I’m trying to point out is that it’s the clothing brand’s fault, because the sizing is never the same across the board.”

In a recent Revolve haul, Bader went through a selection of items sized XL to XXL. From a romper and two-piece set to a blazer, everything included in the haul would look great — that is, if it fit the way the size indicated it should. Bader’s hauls prevent us from falling into the same trap; her ability to laugh it off is what allowed her to gather 1.1 million TikTok followers in a few month’s time.

Bader and other haulers also share which brands are doing things right, and how to use one label’s method of sizing to figure out their corresponding size at another one.

Unlike Bader’s realistic hauls, Nichole prefers to only show the pieces she’s ordered that she genuinely loves. “I’ll share if something doesn’t fit me right because sizing is so inconsistent,” she tells Refinery29, but otherwise, she’ll often choose to only highlight the things she keeps. “If it’s something that doesn’t work for me, I almost want to tell you really in-depth why it doesn’t work — if it’s the style, the fit of the fabric, the way it feels on my skin, or whatever it may be.” With each video being just 60 seconds, there just isn’t enough time on TikTok to go into that kind of detail (but they oftentimes do end up on YouTube).

One thing that both haulers do is share their honest opinions and feedback with the brands they work with, whether it’s in their actual hauls or behind the scenes. In her Revolve haul, Bader chose to end the video with a plea to the trend-forward retailer: “Please, Revolve, please just make some larger clothing,” she begs. “On the website, it says XXL, but when you go and click that, there’s barely any items on the website that are XXL. What if I came in and I created a brand for you… but for curvier women? Don’t you want to cater to more people and make more money? It’s very simple!” 

Nichole speaks directly with the brands she works with to try and come up with solutions. “I’ve had brands literally design clothes based on my body type,” she says. “They will send me sample sizes, ask me for my measurements, and then I will tell them, ‘Okay, it fits me around the waist, but the back doesn’t have enough fabric, so it’s coming down too low.’ Some brands will work with me in that regard to make sure that a piece fits bodies in the way that they’re hoping it will.” 

Unfortunately, it’s going to take some time for these brands to make those changes, and for more brands to realise they should, too. In the meantime, TikTok haulers like Nichole and Bader will continue to make light out of the vulnerable try-on process. Given how much they’ve already done for plus-size women, one day, maybe they won’t have to.
