Hey btw idk who lied to some of yall but just to be totally clear you absolutely do not need to be pale or do pale makeup to be goth. You also don't need to be thin or young. Anyone who tries to tell you otherwise is just some bigot and they're not part of my subculture.

You don't need clear skin. You don't need to be white. You don't need to be pale. You don't need to fade your freckles. You don't need an hourglass figure. You don't need expensive clothing. You don't need to hide your wrinkles. You don't need to lose weight. You don't need to conform to some set of gender roles. You don't need to be able-bodied. You don't need to dress up all macabre and elaborate every single day and put tons of effort into your appearance or wear anything that causes you discomfort.

You don't need to act a certain way, you don't need to look a certain way.

Just listen to the music and follow your heart from there and you're in the club, it really is that simple.

My 90s/Y2K photos

It's kinda amusing to me that 90s and Y2K goth has become a little subgenre all of its own, because that was my era.

However, it also makes me think that there may be people out there who would enjoy seeing my old photos from this time. All these were taken in late 2000 or early 2001 when I would have been 18/19. Faces of my friends obscured since I don't know whether they'd want them shared!

Poor quality due to these being photos of physical photos originally taken with a film camera. We couldn't do millions of digital selfies to get ones we liked at that time, just had to hope for the best and wait until your film was developed...

I have no objection to these being shared, but please reblog, don't repost 😉

And here's the collaged album I keep them in, also an authentic relic from that time. Not sure what Darth Vader is doing on there. Or Cristina Scabbia come to that, I really dislike Lacuna Coil!

"punk and goth are just fashion styles!!!"

NO!!! SHUT UP!!! SHUT. UP i'm going to rip my hair out have you ever listened to a punk song?? have you ever listened to a SINGLE goth track?? it's quite literally all politics what are you TALKING about???

"can't it just be fashion? it's not that deep!!!" IT IS!! TRUST IT IS THAT DEEP MF i do NOT care what your objective is or how many years you've been "alternative" (aka poser) i am NOTTT letting you water down punk and goth to "jUsT a FaShIoN sTyLe!!!"

Beneath the last layer of my soul, where droplets fall, there lurks the most rotten garbage—the remnants of accumulated emotions that have decayed over time..

Over days, over people, the only way I could access them was through writing, Neither a movie nor a song could weave my feelings the way I do.

So, I kept writing, again and again, hoping it would lead me to a day when I no longer smell the stench of this rotted garbage.
