ah yes, balkan bloc life:

some neighbors somewhere are screaming and fighting at the top of their lungs so loud you can hear it through the concrete beneath (its not even 10 am yet)

it smells like onions and beans and whatnot outaide because someone is cooking

there is ambulance and police sirens going on outside. all the time

the entire bloc hasnt had hot water or heating for the last week at all. it is winter

and last night street cats were yawling and screaming and fighting for hours

YOU ONLY FUCKING DRAMK WHAT

So listen. My friend had an exam at 8. I went to see her at 9:30 so we can gossip together bc we hadn't seen eo all summer. We had cocktails at 10 (i had a tequila sunrise, so, yknow, it's not like i had just tequila...). We then went back to mine and had coffee. Many such cases.

I just wanted to pop in and say hi and ask how are you doing? I hope you feel better today and that you're doing well mwah 🫶🏻

Also, bestie and I were out last night and we spent like two hours scrolling through this page that's super nostalgic cause it's all about 90s/early 2000s balkancore and it's silly and feelgood so I'm sending it to you

the papercut chronicles

[vanajinn]

Visual development for a 1950s/60s era gay Balkans short play I wrote for a university course. Referenced a lot of my mother’s childhood photographs for this. 

Image ID below the cut. 

[ID: a set of four digital black-and-white drawings rendered with a mixed media style. The first depicts a typical Balkan apartment kitchen with cutlery and pots strewn about. The second depicts two young women, one with short cropped hair and one with long hair, embracing with their arms around one another against the backdrop of a bedroom with a lamp and calendar hanging on the wall. The third is in the style of a class photo, and depicts a group of young women in matching uniforms smiling and looking at the camera. One in the middle has short hair. The fourth depicts a young woman wearing a shawl and long overcoat over a skirt, holding a bouquet of flowers. She is standing in an open city square and it is snowing. end ID]
