GUIDE TO MORI KEI!! 森系
mori kei is one of the many early 2000s subcultures that originated from the harajuku district inspired by living in the woods.
wearers of this type of clothing are usually referred to as mori girl (森ガール) or mori boy (森ボーイ). basically, forest girl/boy.
this subculture is based on nature and gives off a more elven/fae feel, its main color pallet consisting of earth tones, greens, whites, and other soft colors. plaid is a pattern that occasionally appears in mori kei fits, and sometimes baby blues and pinks will appear for a contrast to an outfit.
if you want to look for some clothing that would fit with this aesthetic, look for something loose and natural, and pieces that layer well together. such as a large cardigan/sweater vest that goes well with a frilly dress/skirt and leg warmers and tights. pants may also be used for a more masculine look.
"ゆるふわ" is what the loose layers achieve, hiding the curves of the body and therefore the wearer has a "fluffy" appearance. when layering, make sure to begin with the lightest/thinest layer first, and then move on to heavier materials.
lace, light materials, and embroidered clothes are musts, while accessories such as shawls, tights, and scarfs add to the layered effect.
linen, wool, and cotton are fabrics that are often used. fabrics that drape nicely will be your bff when creating a mori kei outfit.
mori kei is actually quite similar to cottagecore, but while cottagecore is focused on a rural life, mori kei is more based on forests and nature itself.
It also expresses a love of the forest, quiet hobbies, reading, drinking tea, herbalism, and a natural lifestyle.
hair and makeup often match with the almost whimsical and natural look of the outfits. makeup is kept relatively basic, with use of colors such as beige, pinks, and golds. minimalistic igari makeup is a nice example.
DARK MORI KEI/MORI GOTH
a subcategory of mori kei is mori goth, which uses darker, less saturated colors of the usually light color scheme of mori kei. it still follows the same layering scheme and relaxed silhouette, but as of now it has separated into strega, another subculture.
YAMA KEI
a more practical subcategory, usually for fans of the outdoors who love hiking/camping. this includes brighter and more vivid colors while also reverting to more practical clothes.
HAMA KEI
hama kei is a beach-based section, with uses of lighter clothing and less layers, as well as blues and yellows. you'd also see things such as stripes, anchors, and denim to add to the sailor-like outfits

A guide to Dark Academia: Philosophy and Behaviors
Truly think about your interests, reach out to learn more about them.
Keep up with news articles and current events.
Practice discipline (ex. Working out, reading 1 hr, less screen time, etc.).
Remember what you find interesting and surround yourself with those things.
When meeting new people, memorize their name and associate them with something to remember them better.
Learn to entertain your mind without your phone.
When you want to understand someone, take note of how they think, act, and respond. Also pay attention to what they watch, read, and enjoy.
Take steps to expand your vocabulary, like reading classics or books that have a lot of words.
If you're good with English, learn a new (dead?) language like Greek, French, Latin, or German.
Write poetry and stories about how you're feeling and doing mentally. Writing is a great outlet (as a poet, I write when im upset).
Start a Dark Academia Blog to inspire you to keep doing Dark Academia activities and exhibiting Dark Academia behaviors.
You can suggest content or ask something by clicking the ask me questions button!

the relationship between the chantry and the mortalitasi in nevarra is SO fucking funny. the carefully politic and civil syncretism of it all. the ‘I’ll refrain from scratching your back to bloody shreds if you refrain from scratching mine :)’. left hand politely averting its eyes from whatever the fuck the right hand is doing merrily up to its elbow in entrails because it usually knows what it’s doing I guess. speak softly, and have an army of the restless dead ready to go banapants horrorshow bonkers if you don’t get to tend to them. We Receive: being able to keep doing our goth thing mostly unimpeded. You receive: us not raising the great majority to protest your unwelcome meddling. render unto the chantry what is the chantry's and unto the watchers what is theirs (or, with all possible courtesy you understand, else…)
#dragon age#nevarra#mortalitasi#a watcher's work is never done#The maker may take the souls but someone still has to care for the graves#the necropolis is such a trump card for the nevarran mages when you think about it -- try to annul the mortalitasi?#soon you'll have some VERY unpleasant things starting to come up from underground and no one who knows how to deal with it#that place has grown and been built upon itself for like a thousand years at this point hope you're good with surprises with no guide#it's not grey wardens in a blight levels of immunity granted but it's up there. thedas realpolitik hits different idk what to tell you#the idea that the ‘higher dead’ are the original souls lingering after death must be getting spicily close to heresy right#even more so than the mortalitasi usually get I mean#Poor Cassandra. Imagine being born a jock among goth nerds no wonder the religion got to her#if her parents had lived she could have been a hotheated dashing noble getting in righteous duels but instead. her uncle. alas.#I jest but I really am so interested in seeing more of nevarra to understand even more of where she's coming from originally#I'm visiting my wife's folks for the first time I'm really excited :) (I do think my adaar would find it fascinating actually so. sry cass)

Vague Guide to Gothic Academia
Lebanon Hanover (totally not because they're my favorite to write to nooo)
Franz Gordon has some really beautiful piano pieces I highly recommend if you want more classical goth music
Danse Macabre
Hannibal Lector (NBC included)
Criminology
Law in general actually
Religious studies
Come on guys the catholic aesthetics are pulling through here
Victorian collars
Leather gloves
Menthols (this one is just a personal preference, don't smoke)
As much as I hate to say it, Schopenhauer and Roubiczek
I really dislike dark philosophy but it just lines up so well >:[
Moving on to something I like far more: Taxidermy
I'm thinking mostly bones or wet specimens
Normal taxidermy works too but I think it'd clash with dorm space
Leather, silk, and velvet are good staple textures in my opinion
Which does make this harder to style in the summer but tbf dark linens have such a nice flow
The moon, obviously
Astrophysics in general. The stars and the vast existentialism of space are such a good niche. Also I don't see as much STEM majors in these things as I'd like
I'm an arts man for sure, fucked up over literature and philosophy sure, but SCIENCE BRO
That shit is so dark especially going into death studies or psychology
Honestly being a doctor in general can fuck you up
Always smelling like a cadaver (perfume or otherwise...)
Long coats, heavy boots, ties, chains, trad and victorian goth gear both work here
I do like to lean more into dark academia visually with gothic academia, just because my wardrobe would have too much of the same shit going on
Dark sweaters, waist coats and corsets, well fitting suit pants, a well structured light colored blouse usually help balance out
Gothic academia in my opinion is balance between structure and loose chaos
Makeup can also be important for a look so I suggest, strong sharp contor, white accents and dark liner. A red/maroon lip is a good choice for dark makeup in general.
I got distracted by the visual elements woops
A lot of the staple dark academia books work really well
A good murder plot always helps
The Divine Comedies - Dante
The Phantom of the Opera - Gaston Leroux
Carmilla - Sheridan Le Fanu
NIGHT CLASSES!!!
I can't believe I forgot that one
Getting drunk on Absinthe and red wine like a damn vampire

A guide to The Cure, Pt. I: The Goth Phase
The Cure have always been stylistically gothic, and have always had elements of gothicism in their music, but for many (including myself before I started getting into them properly) they are musically defined in contrast to that aesthetic. The group of goths making upbeat pop music is the version of The Cure most people know. Sandwiched between the new-wave hit Boy's Don't Cry and their later cult-pop resurgence, though, is a full-on goth phase which made it all the way to the music itself. Throughout this phase, they built the groundwork for what would become their strange, elusive legacy, starting with
Seventeen Seconds
I feel comfortable suggesting that this is the beginning of The Cure's musical goth phase, but it is worth adding the caveat that there is still a healthy dose of new-wave pep left over from their first outings here. It makes for a very interesting listen and a fantastic introduction to this version of The Cure for the fans of the poppier stuff that want to give their darker stuff a try. It's a balance that I think is achieved with more perceivable intention on later releases, but whether it was a case of residual flavour being incidentally left in the wok, or whether this was seasoned purposely to include that taste, it makes for a good listen.
It's not an album I'd consider one of the best from The Cure, but it is just one step below that, I would say. A must-listen for a prospective Cure fan, but not a must-listen as a passerby. And it serves a very useful purpose in their discography as the transition album between two very disparate styles within alternative music, and it navigates that chasm with impressive grace.
Faith
The last of the remnants of joy have been erased here. This is a cold, gothic landscape. This album is the first time The Cure were truly, and entirely gothic. There's a melancholy to the sound here, as if the instruments were despondent and going through the motions. To be clear, that isn't at all a criticism. What it's lacking in thrills, it offers in emotional resonance for those wanting to wallow in their misery, as well as a platform for Robert Smith's expressive vocal performances and cryptic lyricism.
It's a great album, but the unfortunate fact for me is that it is still fairly difficult to recommend. It's a consistently good album, and the band seem comfortable in their new skin, but there isn't a clear highlight on this album. They're comfortable, but maybe not confident enough to really knock anyone's socks off yet. At least in my opinion. But that would soon change with their next album:
Pornography
When even remote tribes that got given access to the internet get hooked on your album, you know you've done something right. (Note to self: consider the passage of time when making jokes about trending topics)
In my opinion, this is the first truly great album The Cure have made. They took the clear, focused intent of the previous album and elevated it to the point that they made a masterpiece. The simple instrumentals of Faith, as good as they were on that album, give way to a more affecting, oppressive, borderline overwhelming soundscape that sticks with you like nothing they've made to this point, perhaps with the exception of an individual song here and there.
To put it simply, The Cure finally feel like they've found a unique identity. I referred to Faith as the point in which they feel comfortable in their skin, and to continue that metaphor, Pornography feels, ironically, like they've found the clothes they like. Feeling comfortable in your skin is important, but your skin doesn't say a whole lot about you as a person. Your style though? That can say a lot about who you are and who you want to be. It's a strong form of identity affirmation and communication, and that is the importance of this album. Anyone could have come along and made Faith, but only The Cure could have made Pornography
As far as recommendations go, I think this one is pretty straightforward: if you have any interest in The Cure's goth rock stuff, this is required listening. It's easily in the top 3 must-listen albums from them for me.
Next Week...
Next week will be the pop phase. That's to be released on 6th September 2024 at midnight BST. If you're far enough in the future, congrats! It's out already!

South Park Filler Guide - Season 12
Link for Seasons 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
You know the drill by now, I’ll judge whether an episode has all the qualities of a canon one, or is it just shameless filler. S12E1 Tonsil Trouble is CANON
Strong canon for Eric giving Kyle AIDS, somehow the one thing still on Kyle's mind even 40 years later.
S12E2 Britney's New Look is FILLER
The references are dated, its message is timeless, the events are purely filler. I have a question though, why isn't Kenny here? Butters takes his place for the episode, is this some lost season 6 episode? S12E3 Major Boobage is FILLER
Eric learns about jew experience, not that it lasts. I'll be writing that sentence again a lot, won't I? S12E4 Canada on Strike is FILLER
Kyle says something about the internet that was accurate in 2008. Terrance and Phillip get major roles, and you know how I feeller about that. I have a question though, why isn't Kenny here? Butters takes his place for the episode, is this some lost season 6 episode? S12E5 Eek, A Penis! is CANON
Janet has a permanent sex change. I'm happy to include Cartminez who is the most positive portrayal of the Eric character you'll get in the canon-only viewing experience. S12E6 Over Logging is FILLER
The internet gets unplugged and then replugged. Kenny still doesn't get dialog. S12E7 Super Fun Time is FILLER
Yes, Kenny gets a tiny role in this one, but Butters takes the major plot, it really seems like Trey and Matt enjoy the 3 boys with Butters dynamic a lot more than the 3 boys with Kenny dynamic. The only Kenny episode so far had him on a saparate plot from the others. Stan and Wendy get some nice relationship content, however other than that, this one doesn't build the lore. S12E8 The China Problem is CANON
The Free Hat episode did pretty much everything this episode did, except the random chinese storyline. However a reference later made sure I have to include this one. S12E9 Breast Cancer Show Ever is CANON
We get an update on a few things. Goth kids are still friends with Stan. Check. Stan and Eric friendship explored along with Wendy and Stan relationship (since we skipped Super Fun Time anyway), Eric and Wendy are established as rivals for later episodes, and Principal Victoria gets backstory. S12E10 Pandemic is CANON
It gives Craig proper characterization, but if you gave him your attention, you already know him. Basically an early season-type four boys adventure with him included. This is the episode that references to The China Problem, and would you believe it, we include this one also just for another throwback line. Also the title works here a lot better than in season 24. S12E11 Pandemic 2: The Startling is CANON
More of the same, but with Randy horror side plot. S12E12 About Last Night... is LORE
For the story of how Barack Obama became president, something not closely connected with the main storylines, but world-building nonetheless. S12E13 Elementary School Musical is CANON
This is the episode that references to The China Problem, and we include this one for introducing mainstay character Scott Malkinson. S12E14 The Ungroundable is CANON
For introducing the Vampire kids. With this season we got a lot of canon-by-technicality territory, wonder if it keeps happening?
SPOILER-FREE RUNDOWN
Again, CANON means you should watch it, FILLER means you can skip it, LORE is somewhere in-between, any episode with the LORE label will have an explanation that helps you decide if you should include it or not. S12E1 Tonsil Trouble is CANON S12E2 Britney's New Look is FILLER S12E3 Major Boobage is FILLER S12E4 Canada on Strike is FILLER S12E5 Eek, A Penis! is CANON S12E6 Over Logging is FILLER S12E7 Super Fun Time is FILLER S12E8 The China Problem is CANON S12E9 Breast Cancer Show Ever is CANON S12E10 Pandemic is CANON S12E11 Pandemic 2: The Startling is CANON S12E12 About Last Night... is LORE* S12E13 Elementary School Musical is CANON S12E14 The Ungroundable is CANON *In-series explanation of how Barack became president.
CANON counter:
S1: 9 out of 13 S2: 3 out of 18 S3: 6 out of 18 S4: 10 out of 17 S5: 8 out of 14 S6: 11 out of 17 S7: 6 out of 15 S8: 4 out of 14 S9: 8 out of 14 S10: 4 out of 14 S11: 4 out of 14 S12: 8 out of 14
Overall: 81 out of 182

🍒 Cherry Lane Arc
Fairly OddParents
(June 2018 - Ongoing)
Cosmo and Wanda burst into view with twin poofs beside the tree. “Timmy!” But Timmy ignored them. Keeping his arm outstretched, he looked Jorgen in the eye. His teeth ground together, his buck teeth scraping loudest of all. “Yeah, you heard me right. I’m happy, and I don’t need my fairies anymore!”
- You may also like the Pink Train arc, which precedes this one
- Romance, Angst, & Fluff
- Works related to the main FOP cast and close adjacents in their teen years: Timmy, Chloe, Kevin, Chester, A.J., Vicky, Mark, Tootie, Trixie, Sanjay, Elmer, Dale... and a quietly watching Poof
-> This arc picks up after Pink Train and focuses on humans. If you're looking for pieces centered around Poof and Foop, see Lavender Train
Summary
20 years pass between the end of Season 10 and Timmy raising Tammy and Tommy in his parents' home. Every year brings new developments, and this arc's main multichapter (Along the Cherry Lane) explores each one. Several other works fall under the designation of "main cast in their teen and adult years," so they're here too. The road to adulthood is long and bumpy, but it's about the friendships we make along the way.
☁️ This is a Cloudlands AU arc. It is not compliant with City Lights AU or the "A New Wish" spin-off. However, Dale and Hadley's arcs have been soft reset so they're the same in both AUs.
-> Hazel, Dev, and their schoolmates do not appear in this AU (except in relation to Dale or Hadley's arcs). Works that follow their journey from kidhood to adulthood are in the City Lights arc.
Any Rating - This is the "teenage growth & married lives" arc. Some works are mild while others are more intense. This arc contains flirting, dating, and sexual content.
This arc follows the "Channel Chasers" implication that Timmy had his kids young.

Highlights of this arc:
- Timmy parts ways with his fairy family early. Chloe doesn't. Poof isn't bitter... Not even a little - Remy hides things from his parents while still living in their mansion... including the orphan child he invited to stay - Teen Dale Dimmadome in recovery (If you can call it that) - Elmer struggles against Bob for control of his body - Tootie wobbles between the lines of morality, fighting to change her life for the better all the while - Trixie garners the courage to show up for D&D night with the boys. Maybe this could work? - The unbearable lightness of raising Tammy and Tommy - Several weddings, some of which go more to plan than others - Vicky and Mark living their best(?) lives - Kevin Crocker makes an unfortunate discovery about his witch genes - Foop runs away from home... and stumbles across familiar faces - Poof watches his godbrother grow up... Very maturely and non-stalker-y, I'm sure

Aria Montgomery's Boho Chic Style
Aria Montgomery is one of the five most iconic liars on television. She also has one of the most exceptional fashion tastes of any fictional character.
Distinctive in her style, Aria's fashion is undeniably boho-chic, with hipster twists. She predominantly dons an autumnal colour palette of browns, reds, greens and purples. However, she occasionally wears all black - elements of her goth era slipping through the cracks of her usual style. Layers are the most integral part of Aria's outfits, helping to form her aesthetic. She often wears skirts - maxi or mini - paired with blouses, henley tops or patterned t-shirts. Alternatively, she wears dresses, typically floral, all-black, or leopard print. Dark-coloured jeans make an occasional appearance in her lookbook. Yet, almost all of her outfits are layered with cardigans or leather jackets.
Throughout the show, Aria wears an eclectic collection of patterns. She wears floral patterns, stripes and polka dots most often, but was also shown wearing leopard print and tartan occasionally. Denim and leather are the typical materials she wears, usually in the form of a skirt or jacket. Additionally, she uses a lot of fringe, tassels, lace and feathers which aids her overall boho look.
Aria uses accessories that accentuate the beauty of her outfits. Large dangly earrings, an assortment of rings and typically bejewelled statement necklaces, showcase the artistic shards of Aria's personality. Scarves and black nail polish are also a must-have in Aria's wardrobe. She also always pairs her outfits with boots, adding to the hipster elements of her style.
Creative and cool, Aria Montgomery's style is a quintessential guide to boho-chic, perfectly displaying the anatomical elements of her personality.

South Park Filler Guide - Season 17
Link for Seasons 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
You know the drill by now, I’ll judge whether an episode has all the qualities of a canon one, or is it just shameless filler.
S17E1 Let Go, Let Gov is FILLER Eric unveils that the government keeps Santa as a hostage, but nobody cares. S17E2 Informative Murder Porn is FILLER The parents learn Minecraft and then proceed to never talk about it again.
S17E3 World War Zimmerman is FILLER Tolkien and Eric get development, however it's not grand enough to count it. S17E4 Goth Kids 3: Dawn of the Posers is CANON Do I just like messing with everyone by caring so much about the goth kids canon specifically? Maybe, but the fact that the vampire kids teamed up with goths makes this one a big development for the rivaling teams.
S17E5 Taming Strange is FILLER Ike gets hormones by accident, which is solved by the end of it. S17E6 Ginger Cow is FILLER Eric and Kyle accidentally create the peace between religions which Stan and Kenny accidentally ruin.
S17E7 Black Friday is CANON S17E8 A Song of Ass and Fire is CANON S17E9 Titties and Dragons is CANON This is obviously a trilogy and it wouldn't make sense to grade them differently. The reason why they're canon is partly because they are the backbone of the video game, Stick of Truth, partly because how it deals with the main character dynamics, such as Scott Malkinson becoming friends with Butters and a more prominent character, and partly because it establishes backstory for Tom and Tammy Thompson (I know they are bit characters, but it all added up), and following through with the Vamps being on the same side as the goths!
S17E10 The Hobbit is FILLER Wendy is against a fad, but in the end, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. South Park: The Stick of Truth is LORE
At one point I wanted to include it as canon, however it's equal parts its own canon, as The New Kid doesn't appear in the show. But if you followed my guide, you won't have many questions playing this game, as I made sure to include the major references.
SPOILER-FREE RUNDOWN
S17E1 Let Go, Let Gov is FILLER S17E2 Informative Murder Porn is FILLER S17E3 World War Zimmerman is FILLER S17E4 Goth Kids 3: Dawn of the Posers is CANON S17E5 Taming Strange is FILLER S17E6 Ginger Cow is FILLER S17E7 Black Friday is CANON S17E8 A Song of Ass and Fire is CANON S17E9 Titties and Dragons is CANON S17E10 The Hobbit is FILLER South Park: The Stick of Truth is LORE* *It builds upon the series, but the series doesn't build upon it
CANON counter:
S1: 9 out of 13 S2: 3 out of 18 S3: 6 out of 18 S4: 10 out of 17 S5: 8 out of 14 S6: 11 out of 17 S7: 6 out of 15 S8: 4 out of 14 S9: 8 out of 14 S10: 4 out of 14 S11: 4 out of 14 S12: 8 out of 14 S13: 3 out of 14 S14: 7 out of 14 S15: 6 out of 14 S16: 2 out of 14 S17: 4 out of 10 + a highly lore based game
Overall: 103 out of 248
