Thrive to spite them
It took me all day to realize my black pants have faded severely. I like them and they fit alright, if I dyed them black would they look newer?

Always Anti-fascist!
I had not noticed anything unusual in my lj today. The best punishment for those little jerks would be to read me deconstucting H:LOTS anyway.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Usually, from my experience.

I've done that with black jeans for years, askye.

Jilli avers that dying things black doesn't really get them black enough. Though I expect that may be things which were previously another color. Not sure how it would work on already black jeans.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Yay, juliana!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

From my limited experience, dying blue denim still leaves some of the blue visible, so you end up with very dark blue. Dying black or gray (or grey) seems to be fine.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
If you called your doctor and begged for her/him to call in a Flexeril scrip
Chatty!co-worker gave me a Voltaren (it sounds like a Battlebot, doesn't it? the generic is dronabinol, and it's just an Rx analgesic), and it seems to have beaten back most of the pain. Only now I'm having weird flashbacks to when my back was so injured right before my surgery, because it's the same time of year, same weather, and now I'm all kind of loopy on painkillers. Freaky. I keep trying to not react from the atavistic sense-memory part of my brain.

Herding cats for fun
The success of dying depends upon the quality of the fabric and also of the dye. Rit dyes were always disappointing to me and their black = sorta gray. I've had better luck with the Procion dyes. Cotton and wool will soak up color, and it might set. Worn fabrics can shed all applied colors in the wash. Polyester and acetate will probably be unchanged by a dye bath.
