Psychedelic Yeti

I am back in Perth on a holiday. My motive is to finally relax after so many weeks of being high strung and devoting my time to nothing but uni work. I also aim to raise enough money through working my old job to get to Tokyo and visit my brother. I have nearly made enough too!

Last weekend I felt it time enough to rustle up some feathers and frazzle the people of Perth. I did this through the character of the Psychedelic Yeti. I created the costume in it’s entirety. It had a mask with a permanent smile and ornate detailing, and art deco feather headpiece and red circular ears. I also wore a leotard and layers of fringing, fur and roses around my neck. All made for a rather shocking and haunting costume.

I remained sober through the night and graced the clubs and the dance-floor with my movements and prowling. Many couldn’t stand the mask – through fear and through not being able to know my identity. Many wanted to touch me and even more found it sexual. I didn’t speak a word all night – just gazed directly into the eyes of all in an intentionally uncomfortable way. I aimed to be above humans.

Disability is SO Hot Right Now

Fashion has always been ridiculous. The average vein human will pick aesthetic over function any day – and submit themselves to styles which do not reflect nor suit the person which they are.  

What I am getting to here is spectacles. Why would you wear glasses when your eyes are perfectly fine? Why would you wear a hearing aid if you can hear perfectly well? Why would you spend your days in a wheelchair if you can walk?

Why is it suddenly really popular to look visually impaired and dress up like the kids you teased in primary school? I think it is fucking dumb.

To all you people out there wearing your spectacle frames with no glass – I really want to smack you for being a gullible sheep. Grow some confidence else-wise you will end up with crutches and no broken leg – there is no difference see. You are just mocking the real people.

DISABILITY IS TOTALLY CUTE AND KITSCH RIGHT?
