Yk Why I Like Tumblr So Much?

Worst feeling ˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆ ୨୧

things that made me stop wanting to die that require no effort whatsoever

change the color used to highlight text on your laptop

move the pictures on your wall

stack whatever clutter is in your room into piles even if you don’t have time to clean it all

slightly vary your commute, even just by one street

change where you sit and scroll aimlessly on your phone even if it’s only to the chair in your room instead of your bed

drink water or juice out of a wine glass in the morning because nothing is real

shower with the lights off, without music

buy $3 flowers at trader joe’s—they look bad next to the more expensive ones but they look so good in your room

start typing things you don’t post into your notes. your thoughts can be worth documenting even if you don’t deem them worth sharing

wake up super early just once. you don’t have to make it a habit it’s just extra satisfying to go to bed that night

listen to the entirety of your favorite album from 2015

hi,, i couldn't help but notice a slight and minor change in your behavior. do u hate me and want me to die? be honest

Oldschool lolita and 80s goth were supreme when it comes to outfits, I miss the punkish experimental vibe of these subcultures. Like it's so cookie cutter now. Way too many goths look the same (don't come for me, I've been attending goth events for over a decade and the clones are cloning. It got so much worse, tumblr isn't free of goth clones either). Lolitas basically want to crucify people who are being experimental. Not all of them obviously, I feel like it's mostly beginners, but there's a lot of that happening anyways. It's all so matchy-matchy all the time, so BORING. Like do the Fruits magazine things, just do you! It's ok to be matchy-matchy sometimes, but don't put yourself into a box. The labels are making people so repetitive. Where's the creativity???

I'm not into the whole "DIY or die" goth mindset, but the subculture became very materialistic, even though so many goths say they're anti-capitalists. So which one is it? It's completely doable to be goth without DIY, but also without cookie cutter brands like Killstar. Having some pieces is obviously fine, but gigantic hauls aren't exactly post-punk. And again it's BORING. Just either thrift or even but fast fashion in small quantities, depends if your country has cheap thrift stores. In Poland, where I'm from, it's completely normal to find a 100% wool coat with 100% natural silk lining in a thrift shop for $2, but when I went thrifting in Germany it was kinda worse in comparison to h&m, so stick to what's comfortable financially to you, just don't overdo the shopping and buy responsibly. Also Germans fix your thrift stores. It's supposed to be affordable and sustainable and you're ruining it for profit.
