I am old hat at SEO writing. It is odd to me for a platform to frown upon writing processes that actually bring in Google search traffic.

2025 Fashion Trends I Could Do Without
Fashion isn’t something I’d say I’m particularly involved in. For most of the year, I dress sort of like a teen boy in a 2008 low-budget film. There are a few events where I’ll put in the effort to dress up, but my day to day is lived in slacks and graphic tees. This doesn’t mean I’m not up to date on what’s popular though. My TikTok ForYouPage shows me dozens of videos from those that are on top of the trends even if I can’t be bothered to participate myself.
