⏳🖤✨💀 Aquí Seguimos — Timelines — They Wrote Us Out of the Story. We Showed Up to Every Chapter Anyway. 💀✨🖤⏳
They wrote us out of the timeline.
Not once. Not in one place. Systematically, deliberately, across centuries and continents and classrooms — the history books that started the story after the conquest, as if nothing existed before the arrival of the ships. The maps that renamed every mountain and river and sacred site, as if the names that had been spoken on this land for thousands of years had never existed. The curriculum that taught our children about everyone else’s history and called it universal, while our own history was called ethnic, optional, supplemental — something you could take as an elective if there was room in the schedule.
They wrote us out of the timeline.
And we showed up to every chapter anyway.
The Chicano who was told their culture was not history and made it history. The indigenous person who was told their language was dead and kept speaking it. The mestizo who was told they were neither one thing nor the other and became both, fully, unapologetically, in a way that required an entirely new category because the existing ones were not built to contain them. The abuela who kept the ceremony alive in the kitchen when it could not be kept alive in the temple. The abuelo who told the stories that were not in any book because he was the book. The generation that was told to assimilate and instead created an entire culture — the art, the music, the fashion, the language, the particular defiance of the Chicano who takes everything that was used to diminish them and turns it into something beautiful.
The Aquí Seguimos — Timelines T-Shirt is for the one who rewrites the timeline by existing in it. 220 g/m² heavyweight cotton. DTF print on the front and back. Black. Unisex. XS through 5XL. Printed in the USA — on the timeline that was always ours.
“Nos borraron de la línea del tiempo. Aparecimos en cada capítulo de todas formas. La historia que no nos escribió — la estamos escribiendo nosotros.”
(They erased us from the timeline. We showed up to every chapter anyway. The history that didn’t write us — we are writing it ourselves.)
They wrote us out of the story. We showed up to every chapter anyway. ⏳🖤
⏳ Materials & Specifications
- Fabric: 100% Cotton — the natural fiber that has been woven into cloth on this continent for thousands of years before anyone arrived to rename the continent; breathable, durable, and built to last through every chapter of the timeline
- Fabric Weight: 220 g/m² — heavyweight; the weight of something that was built to endure, to be worn through every era, to hold its shape and its statement through everything that tries to erase it; the tee that feels like the timeline itself — dense, layered, and not going anywhere
- Fit: Regular fit, Unisex — the silhouette that belongs to everyone who was written out of the timeline and showed up anyway; wear it as-is, size up, style it however the rewriters of history in your lineage would have approved of
- Print Method: DTF (Direct to Film) — vibrant, detailed, durable graphics on dark fabric; the technology that makes the declaration visible on the black, that makes the timeline legible from across the room, that holds up through every wash the way the Chicano timeline has held up through everything
- Print Area: Front and back — the timeline on the chest and the timeline on the back; the declaration that faces every direction because we showed up to every chapter from every angle
- Color: Black — the color of the ink that was used to write us out and the ink we are using to write ourselves back in; the color that makes every graphic pop and every statement land with the weight of centuries
- Printed in USA — printed on the timeline that was always ours, on the land where the story is still being written
- Sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL — because everyone who was written out of the timeline deserves to wear the rewrite
🧺 Washing & Care — Keeping the Rewrite Legible
- Machine wash cold with similar colors — cold water preserves the DTF print and the heavyweight cotton; the timeline survives cold water; it has survived much worse
- Do NOT bleach — bleach is for erasure; this shirt is about the rewrite
- Tumble dry low — low heat preserves the DTF print; the declaration survives the dryer when you treat it right
- Do NOT iron — the timeline does not need to be pressed flat; it has too many layers for that
- Do NOT dry clean — this shirt was written by the people, not the cleaners
- Pro tip: Turn inside out before washing to protect the DTF print on both front and back — keep the timeline looking like it was just written, because it is always just being written, because the story is not over

🎯 How to Determine Your Perfect Fit
- Measure your chest: Wrap a soft tape measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping it level and parallel to the floor. This is your most important measurement for tee sizing.
- Measure your shoulder width: From the edge of one shoulder to the edge of the other, across the back. Compare to the shoulder measurements above to confirm fit.
- Consider the weight: At 220 g/m², this is a heavyweight tee with structure and presence; it drapes with authority and holds its shape through everything — like the timeline itself.
- Choose your energy: True to size for the clean, structured look — the rewriter who shows up sharp and intentional. Size up for the oversized, I-wear-my-timeline-like-a-manifesto look — the one who makes the graphic the whole statement. Two sizes up for the full oversized dress energy — with boots and chains, the one who wears the rewrite like a gown because it is one.
- Between sizes? Size up. More room to move, more room to breathe, more room to write the next chapter — más espacio para seguir escribiendo.

🔥 Style It Your Way
Timeline Classic: Tucked into dark high-waisted jeans with chunky boots and layered chains — the clean, intentional look that says I know exactly which chapter I am in and I dressed for it; the declaration on the chest, the timeline on the back
Manifesto Mode: Oversized (size up 1–2) with dark cargo pants, boots, and a bold lip — the heavyweight tee as the whole outfit, the front and back print as the full manifesto, the one who wears their rewritten timeline like armor because it is
Dark Chicano: Knotted at the waist over a dark skirt with gold rings and a dark lip — the look that is both the barrio and the archive, both the altar and the after-party, both the history that was erased and the history that is being written right now
Chapter Author: Layered under a dark jacket with dark jeans and boots — the look that walks into every room carrying the weight of every chapter that came before; the one who was written out of the story and is now writing the ending
✨ The Absinthe Society Promise
We create for the ones who rewrite the timeline. For the Chicanos and Chicanas who know that their history did not start with colonization and does not end with assimilation — it is a living document, still being written, still being worn, still being declared on the chest and the back of everyone who shows up to every chapter anyway. For the indigenous person who kept the language alive. For the mestizo who became both things fully. For the abuela who kept the ceremony in the kitchen. For the abuelo who was the book.
The Aquí Seguimos — Timelines T-Shirt is for every person who was written out of the story and showed up to every chapter anyway. For every Chicano and Chicana who wears their rewritten timeline on their chest and their back because the story is not over and they are not done writing it.
Unapologetically Chicano. Unapologetically the author. Unapologetically aquí seguimos.
