wow this was so well put together and thorough I loved reading this ! You really captured a moment in time. I teach high school and it’s funny how being “indie” was such a thing when I was younger, but my students seem totally unfamiliar with it. Maybe as a music genre but even just the idea of being anti-branding seems to be such a millennial thing…

I was one of those girls. Luckily, you didn't include any pictures of me in your post! I just remember being photographed while slathered in baby oil. They liked that I looked 12 years old. What a weird time. Tbh, I do miss all the free socks.
