4/6: Doing **this** Every. Single. Day.

Underground events like secret movie screenings are vital to keeping cutrual history accessible.

I never would have known the Phantom of the Paradise was a fabulous mess. I never found another person that even *knew* Andy Warhol made his own Dracula movie until the local movies suddenly posted a showing for it.

The tumblr blogs posting Haute Coture runway looks are preserving style for us to continue to be inspired by. I would have never seen or known some of the Westwood or McQeen looks I aspire to when they first hit the catwalk, I was 2!

I feel like pirating media that isn’t sold or offered anywhere legally anymore shouldn’t be called piracy. Girl thats archaeology

Actually I'll never forgive Punk Rave and Killstar and fast fashion brands for tricking people into thinking that being goth or punk or emo is expensive. Babygirl the only goth brand names you need to know are Rit, Good Will, Etsy, and Studs and Spikes, we used to shove safety pins through our ears and then they started selling earrings that look like safety pins for 15.99. We used to dye thrifted wedding dresses black and they started selling gothic gowns for 300 bucks. We used to put studs on boots we found in the back of the good will and they started making Demonias. DIY or die wasn't perfect it can be exclusionary to disabled people but whatever the fuck we've got going on right now is so much worse. It's not any more inclusive to the disabled and it is exclusionary to the people who made punk, to the people who made goth, to the people who made emo. If you've got the funds and you don't want to do diy pay someone else to do it for you but please let it be a small artist or a friend not some guy in a suit who's made it his business to gentrify punk. You can turn flats into platforms with flipflops, hotglue and gumption don't let anyone tell you different.

Empress Elisabeth’s Mourning Mask, Austria, 1889

The dress and mask was designed by her favourite dressmaker Fanni Scheiner and is an enormous mass of velvet, lace, French jet glass beads and ostrich feathers. She displayed herself as grief personified and never recovered from the death of her son. (more info)

Why is it always the "career" jobs that take forever to hire, have the longest interview processes, and never ever communicate internally?

I interviewed 2 months ago for a position that is *still* interviewing candidates. That's funny, in my interview you expressed an urgency to fill the role. It feels like you wasted my time.

It took me too long to stop reading "and one airport" as "and, we just have one airport" and remember And One is a band.

New piece! Am calling her “Skör” (fragile in Swedish).

Assembled from strips of lace, a doily, and some fiddly needle lace and crochet for the teeth. Starched with diluted wood glue.

Perfect in time for Halloween!

"Conventions"/Events where I *have* Caught the Vid.

"Conventions"/Events where I *have not* Caught the Vid.

-Goth Music Festivals (I have not wore a mask because I overheat when dancing, and why would I go if not to dance???)

Just pointing out that my Goth Community is Amazing!
