Gothic - Blog Posts
Hyeee just redownloaded this app! I think I’ve had this account since ?? I don’t know, I had my standard 2017 user when I logged back in.
But I might start a blog and mayhaps I’ll keep it active this time around ༝﹡˖˟ ⸜₍⁽ˊ꒳ˋ⁾₎⸝ ༝﹡˖˟
if I ever made it to the model catwalk, I would find some way to bring a sharp thing on set, and as I emerge, a thing of starved beauty and pure art, dramatically slice my own torso open, ribs exposed, guts splattering to the stage ground, blood spewing all over the front row guests, and most importantly, bleeding my useless life essence all over the expensive, artistic designer clothing I am made to show. A terrible display of art, to bleed as a pig does when sliced at the neck to please the human, the killer. What are we humans but showpieces of greed? May my blood be the color we lust for in the cold claws of winter.
Our eyes are static
Leave your headlights off if you park alongside the endless field
Hopefully we won't find you before sunrise
There's no signal out here

I want to dress and act in a way that makes people question wether or not I’m something poorly hiding as a human, or just some weird goth.
Yes fast food worker, I came in with a pocket of shiny things I found and a cape! Am I just a weirdo, or am I hiding 100 eyes under this thing?

This is a PSA: please check on your goths and make sure they have plenty of shade and water as prolonged sun exposure can become deadly, quickly.
These summer heat waves can be very dangerous for your goths- as they’re rather susceptible to things like heat stoke and exhaustion.
And remember, never leave your goths in hot cars.
