Nice! I hit over 900 subscribers! Thank you for your follows!

Sorry I haven't been as active as I have been in previous years (grad school is a bitch), but there is more coming soon for Halloween season.

Note to self:
Singing along with Altar de Fey's "Death to My Enemies" will cause the guy sitting in front of you to look at you strangely and move several seats away 😬

With the second Satanic Panic bubbling up, we really need more musicians to start Satanism-baiting.

Why are the weird kids in movies always fans of The Smiths and David Bowie and Iggy Pop and other stuff that isn't that difficult to come by or that plenty of non-weirdoes like? Why aren't they ever fans of The Butthole Surfers or Swans or stuff like that?

Be honest, does the pattern on this shirt look like swastikas?
(and, if yes, did you think that before I said it?)

Black and silver fabric with an angular velvet pattern that may or may not look like swastikas

Some good thoughts on #goth fashion.

Ok yes im complaining again. the look that has been dubbed "modern trad" (Thank god we're finally calling it that because as someone whos super into 80s fashion it was infuriating to see people just calling it trad) while nice has started to bother me. no i dont give a shit how people dress or do their makeup thats their call. and i dont wanna be one of those people who are like "Ugh everyone looks the SAME unlike ME who is actually ORIGINAL and DIFFERENT" because thats also annoying. but seeing a shit ton of goths all doing that same look has caused a lot of baby bats to think "fuckkk i cant be goth i dont have straight black hair & perfect intricate eyeliner & white base makeup & a corset & that specific ankh belt & demonias....". i dont necessarily have a problem with the look itself or even people looking kinda same-y its the fact that since that specific style has become so prevalent its made people think that its the only way to do goth fashion. and it pisses me off. the entire point is to express yourself. if you enjoy that look then go right ahead but PLEASE i encourage you to think about what YOU like and not just whats popular. everything has gotten so commercialized and the nature of social media has made it so people care more about their image than ever and i hate to see people feel bad because they cant fit this specific mold.

Do you know how often I get messages from sad people saying they can't be goth because they don't look like the "trad goth" (which is NOT what the OG goths looked like, and I'm also glad that it's finally being called "modern" trad) people they see on IG and tiktok? So, so often, and each time I feel simultaneously like I need to hug the person writing AND that I need to burn most social media to the ground.

Goths from the 70s/80s/90s and into the 2000s had to get creative with their looks because the few companies catering to our looks were hard to find and/or expensive. We made do with things we could find at mainstream stores and thrift stores. Rip the crotch out of a pair of fishnets to make a shirt, layer black slips, skirts, and blouses, tie scarves and shawls around your waist, wear that black velvet vest you found on holiday clearance from J.C. Penny's, go to the hardware store and buy chain and carabiner clips to make your own chain belts ... you get what I'm saying here, right?

Goth fashion doesn't have set-in-stone rules! Yes, goths wear a lot of black and often have intricate makeup, but not always. Goth is a "finding beauty in darkness" aesthetic! Do what you want within that guideline!

Annoying thing: Ticketmaster says I can only go to this event that I bought tickets from if I download the ticket to my Google Wallet and it's not letting me do that >.>

With people saying today is the rapture and it being my thirty-third birthday (aka my Jesus year), does that mean I'm the antichrist?

Happy Bisexual Awareness Week.
Reminder that listening to music by any non-bisexual musicians this week is a crime punishable by eighteen months hard labor. Thank goodness there is quite a catalog to listen to.

The next rapture has been announced for my birthday.

I figured that putting my "John Brown was right" sticker on my laptop that I regularly take with me to work might be a bad idea, so I think I'll settle with putting it on my bass.

"If you ain't making money on the Internet, there's no reason you should be posting frequently." Advice I need to take.

I'm so glad my family member asked me what a groyper was and not some random other person. Someone else would have just said "they're Nazis." She asked me and got the whole story from the Groyper War to the cumhunting.

(because this is Internet and people can't always read tone, this is A Joke and he is not literally in it; there's just a character who aesthetically resembles him)

Damn, why did no one tell me Ashton Nyte was in the new season of Wednesday?

I need to buy all the parts for it, though.
