6, 18, 29, 30 🖤

6. Panic! At The Disco or Fall Out Boy?

ooh!  i’m into both when it comes to their older stuff but fever is one of those albums i’ll blast a lot so i’ll have to say panic!

18. Favourite My Chemical Romance song?

ohhh boy i would say all of them because i love them all dearly but the ones that are stuck in my head currently are make room!!!, f.t.w.w.w., and famous last words.. oh also our lady of sorrows.  and you know what they do to guys like us in prison.  i literally cannot answer this question like a normal person i am so sorry 

29. Do you like any newer emo/scene/punk bands? Which?

oooh newer stuff um.. let’s see! 

first of all, i have some very dear friends in a band called rich people,  they’re based around pennsylvania and new jersey, i suppose if i wanted to put a genre on them i’d say they’re emo.  they’ve been around a few years, i met them at my first concert actually in 2016, they were opening, it was a few months after they released their first album i believe but seriously, they just released a new song, and they are absolutely a band you’d want to keep an eye on.  they’re working their way up there and i couldn’t be prouder!!  back step (all the real girls) is a pretty big one for them if you wanna get into them!!!

30. What's your favourite music genre besides emo/punk\scene?

glam!!!  i’m really into stuff like david bowie, the music off rocky horror, queen, the velvet underground, joan jett, the rolling stones even those are more of like borderline rock n roll.  which would explain my extreme fondness for danger days as an album :’) 

i also really like queercore, artists like pansy division, tribe 8 (lynn breedlove is an absolute legend), all that even though i wanna get into more artists of that genre.  

oh and i’m into some hardcore but that really depends,, i’m into hardcore but especially hardcore that’s like.. got a point.  stuff like leathermouth, obviously, but if we’re talking about new stuff, i'm gonna wholeheartedly recommend this band called sharptooth, who have a lot to say and a take-no-shit attitude i respect immensely.  they especially address subjects like misogyny, rape culture, homophobia, mental illness, etc., i’ve seen them twice and if you’re familiar with riot grrrl like bikini kill, they do that same “girls to the front” thing.  they’re progressive as hell with things and refuse to let the incredibly straight-cis-male dominated, homophobic and transphobic community that is the metal and hardcore music scene get in the way of what they’re doing.  they’re the first hardcore band i’ve ever seen fronted by a woman and good lord, lauren kashan knows what she is doing.  one of their guitarists is nonbinary too and honestly it means so much to see that kind of representation especially in a scene like that.  here’s a song by them too!!

thank you for the asks!!!

Name: Elizabeth

Nickname: Liz, Lizzie, Lizzie Loo (my boss’ nickname for me), Sis (my family name)

Gender: Cis Female

Orientation: Bisexual

Nationality: I am an American, from the state of Maryland. 

Faith/Religion: Christian, the sense that I practice the religion in my own way. I’m more of a Christ-follower than anything; I don’t go to church very often, mostly because a lot of mainstream Christianity nowadays turns me off. But I am deeply spiritual and I love to study my religion, its origins and its teachings. 

Hobbies: Reading, listening to music, going out on the weekends with my friends, online shopping (particularly Amazon), researching history, baking every now and then. 

Pets: I have the best dog in the world, and his name is Ringo. 

Favourite color: My most favorite color is blue (especially dark blue), but I am also partial to green, purple, and red as well. 

Favourite holiday: The entire part of the year from Halloween to New Year’s. Somehow, mankind figured out that the only way to get through the last part of the year is to have one party after the other. From Halloween, to Thanksgiving, to Christmas, IT’S LIT!!!!!

Books: Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, As Series of Unfortunate Events, The Chronicles of Narnia, Holes, The Outsiders, Tuck Everlasting, Treasure Island, Ivanhoe, Bridge to Terrabithia, The Royal Diaries/Dear America series, American Girl series, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Persuasion, Evelina, Jane Eyre, Murder on The Orient Express, Ella Enchanted, The Brothers Karamazov, Anna Karenina, To Kill A Mockingbird, Catherine Called Birdie, The Midwife’s Apprentice, Crispin and the Cross of Lead....the list is very long. AND BIOGRAPHIES. So many biographies and social histories, you wouldn’t even believe.  

Movies: Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, True Grit (2010), Holes, Jurassic Park, Back To the Future, Indiana Jones, Star Trek IV: The Long Journey Home, Mulan, Pocahontas, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Lilo and Stitch, The Prince of Egypt, Tombstone, Sherlock Holmes 1 & 2, Murder On the Orient Express, War Horse, Wonder Woman (2017), Black Panther, Ghostbusters (both 1984 and 2016), The Godfather 1 & 2 (in that I’m fascinated by the family dynamic and not the lifestyle being portrayed), Coco, Sense and Sensibility (1995), Pride and Prejudice (2005), Little Women (1994), Lincoln, The King’s Speech, Belle (2013), The Joy Luck Club, The Mummy, Hairspray (2007), Grosse Pointe Blank, Friday (1995), The Birdcage, Pirates of the Caribbean, School of Rock, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Fiddler on the Roof, The Sound of Music, The King and I, The Quiet Man, Mary Poppins, Crazy Rich Asians....THE LIST COULD GO ON FOREVER. 

TV shows: The Office, Parks and Recreation, Brooklyn 99, Stranger Things, Due South, Harlots, Turn, Outlander, Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Simpson’s, The Middle, Modern Family, Superstore. But I also love miniseries as well, such as Horatio Hornblower, Bleak House, John Adams HBO, War and Peace (2016), Band of Brothers, North and South (2004). 

Music: Anything and everything. I have pop, R&B, musicals, hip-hop, rock music (mostly oldies tho), some country (I’m partial to older country, like Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash), Irish folk music, and a lot of classical music, too. 

Coffee, tea or hot chocolate: COFFEE PLEASE. 

Favourite meme: The one that goes “my wig’s been snatched,” LOL. I also miss the Breadsticks meme. And “I came out to have a good time and I’m feeling so attacked right now.” 

I want to live enough to: Get into the historical field, especially in terms of research and historical consulting. 

Weird obsession: Developing huge crushes on guys from the past. Yeah, I’m that person.  

Random facts: I never learned how to ride a bike, nor did I learn how to skate on roller skates. I never actually read The Great Gatsby; I Sparknoted that shit in high school. 

Goals for 2018: Start getting my freaking life together so I can continue being a successful person in 2019. Also...maybe I should start looking at schools so I can do online classes, so I can finish my Bachelor’s degree. 

I’m not gonna do any tagging on this one, but if you see this and wanna do it, feel free to do so!
