If you aren't already familiar with The Parlour Trick and like haunted chamber music and appropriately cool vinyl, you should preorder the fourth pressing of "A Blessed Unrest"

New instance, new #introduction:

My name is Maika. I'm a #writer & #photographer based in #PDX where I'm surrounded by #cats, a couple #snakes, and a few #spiders. (More than a few spiders, to be sure, but most of them are tiny housemates who usually excel playing How Not to Be Seen, which is in their best interest because cats.)

I'm #queer, #trans, #nonbinary, & #neurodivergent. I'm part of the mastodon.lol exodus, but I find it unreasonably daunting to write about myself so I've been procrastinating around this #intro for months. You'll find a more thorough #AboutMe at https://liminalflares.com/about

Workwise, I'm a social media director in the field of #grief education & grief support.

I'm also the creator & narrator of the #LiminalFlares #podcast (https://liminalflares.com/) - atmospheric #storytelling of #eldritch #literature (#ShortStories & #poetry) amended to be #GenderInclusive and bedecked in unearthly music by #TheParlourTrick (https://theparlourtrick.bandcamp.com/) & #eerie ambience by my dear sib, Meredith Yayanos.

Happy tenth birthday to “A Blessed Unrest”, the first and as-of-yet only full-length album by The Parlour Trick.

Released on December 12th back in 2012. (But the vinyl wasn’t pressed until the next year.)

Cursed? Possibly. Haunted af…

👻

…most definitely.

New instance #Intro part 1:

My name is Maika. I'm #queer, #trans, nonbinary, & #neurodivergent. I'm the creator and narrator of the #LiminalFlares podcast, which you can learn all about by listening to our 1st episode.

It's unlike any that follow: a personal intro, why we're here, and what makes us more than another #podcast of #spooky tales, to say nothing of our phenomenal music & audio engineering by @theremina.

#GenderInclusive #Genderqueer #LGBTQIA #Eldritch #StoryTime #TheParlourTrick

What if there were a place where you could listen to haunting tales, bedecked in unearthly music without smacking into language that breaks the spell of the fiction by pretending people outside the gender binary don’t exist?

#LiminalFlares is a weekly #Podcast of bedtime stories from beyond & in-between. Join me, Maika, your #queer, #trans, #nonbinary narrator, as I read pieces of #eldritch literature amended to be #GenderInclusive.

Audio engineering by @theremina

It's #BandcampFriday and I wrote about the very first time I listened to what remains one of the most haunting and magical albums I've ever heard, A Blessed Unrest by The Parlour Trick, aka @theremina, who is also the lead musician and audio engineer extraordinaire for the #LiminalFlares podcast: https://liminalflares.com/a-blessed-unrest-ful-bandcamp-friday/

Me, listening to The Parlour Trick and thinking about the kind of like-minded people I'd like to make music with:
