all the h&m x pride stuff is making me want to lob my laptop through a window

gays don't want rainbow lanyards with whistles. gays want pastel baseball caps with embroidered fruit on them. you fools

@bryn whistle lanyards????? are they marketing to gay referees

@aflightybroad they also sell whistle lanyards with the stranger things logo on them ??

@bryn maybe they're also targeting the lucrative and ever-growing markets of ravers and djs

@aflightybroad @bryn

I was an old skool raver in early 90s England - we got our whistles, lanyards etc from exactly the same places referees got them (traditional sports and outdoor goods shops) as well as things like fishing hats which were popular back then.

From memory there wasn't much rainbow imagery on the rave scene, simply because LGBT+ folk were always a major part of the UK dance music scene from the mid 80s onwards and did not really drift apart until the mid-late 1990s..

@bryn @vfrmedia i love this little history lesson in whistle sourcing thank you!!
