Some people say Yugoslavia died for those mid jeans

What jeans aren't mid? I've found paying anywhere between 50 euros and 200 euros gives you pretty much the same quality. Is going beyond that worth it?
It can be but it can be really hard to sort it out especially in online retail today. Some brands will offer a quality that's cut above the rest but often as time goes on and the profit motive kicks in and/or they get bought out, they'll start cutting corners and start coasting on the name recognition. Also there's the question of where they are made/produced. If you go down the rabbit hole on this enough you will actually find Levi's are considered extremely right quality depending on where they come from and in fact there's entire groups devoted to keeping track of this info to help people find the good stuff.
Also it depends on what kind of qualities you're looking for in jeans. Personally I just stick with banana republic because they have a nice blend of fabrics that are fairly breathable and also hella stretchy. I work from home in the city so I don't really need jeans that can withstand the elements. I just need want to be comfortable and look nice.
Not really related at all but I was looking for what we would wear today had Levis not come around and for some reason this photographer went with Industrial-era child factory worker aesthetic https://i.pinimg.com/originals/03/70/46/0370468b26eacf089d5642f390244b49.jpg
Not as bad as willingly ending Communism for them
A list of his dork's caucus memberships:
Congressional Progressive Caucus
lmao
Dads Caucus
well he does have 5 kids (and custody of 3 of them)
Voting Rights Caucus
LGBTQ+ Equality Caucus
Great job protecting trans people across America bro. Wonderful work. Zero bills passed, but here's a participation trophy.
Pro Choice Caucus
GREAT JOB, SIR. REALLY DOING A WONDERFUL JOB THERE. THANKS FOR PROTECTING ABORTION RIGHTS.
Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus
He is only on this caucus because Chinatown is in his district. Lmao.
Labor Caucus
The heir to the Levi Strauss fortune is on the labor caucus.
Renters Caucus
GREAT JOB KEEPING THE RENTS LOW IN checks notes NEW YORK FUCKING CITY. AMAZING JOB. PAT YOURSELF ON THE BACK.
Quiet Skies Caucus
I had to look this up. "The mission of the Quiet Skies Caucus is to raise awareness on the issue of aircraft noise." How few problems do you have in your life that you spend time on this...
Ukraine Caucus
Baltic Caucus
Oh, cool. What's the last thing they did? "Baltic Security Initiative Act 2023 - Legislation providing the Department of Defense with $350 million over three years to provide the Baltic States with defense aid."
Public Broadcasting Caucus
This is the guy NPR is made for, I guess.
Sustainable Energy and Environment Coalition
Great job on making America not dependent on fossil fuels anymore. No, really, great job fixing global warming. Bravo.
The aircraft noise one can actually be a serious problem for people living in poorer areas underneath flight paths. Imagine a plane flying in to the nearby airport low and loud enough to shake your house and wake you up at 3:00 in the morning every morning.
So considering his phenomenal track record with the rest of this stuff, he's clearly doing a bang up job with that one as well.
It also correlates with poor noise/heat insulation or bad windows that don't keep the noise out or have been vibrated by the planes all out of wack and no longer serve their purpose.
he's in those caucuses to prevent meaningful change, surely.
which would mean that he is doing a great job.
Pure , no dilution just 100%
Seriously though, this dork looks, sounds, and acts like he is pure liberal
Now all I need is to find out he is actually an ivy grad who failed upwards, supports a two state solution (like all liberals because the issue is 'complex' and 'nuanced'), pretends to like the gay community but does nothing for them, and thinks M4A and a reasonable minimum wage is pie in the sky nonsense
Quiet Skies Caucus is to raise awareness on the issue of aircraft noise
But not when its military planes dropping bombs apparently
And this is the party that's supposed to protect us? LOL
Don't forget to

He looks like Dan Aykroyd's character in Trading Places.
