Hi, (54f) I live in Birmingham, England. Anyhoo, I just went to the front door to pick up a Deliveroo shop, and a bunch (around six to eight of them, I think) of baby bats walked past. I said to the delivery guy, "Ooh, look, baby bats!" He kinda ducked and then looked thoroughly confused. I actually got a bit choked up. It was so lovely seeing our subculture thriving. Who've thought back in the early '80s we'd still be here, aye? Just wanted to share with folk who "get it".

I don't want to discourage them from coming, but I also want them to understand what the goth subculture is about. The community has substance and its own identity that has gotten very muddled. I just would like some advice for others who have started their own goth night in their area.

STIIILL (and many others) go live at the BATS IN THE ATTIC FESTIVAL 2024. Weekend tickets are on sale, with day tickets due to made available at some point.

So, i’ve been wanting to start a youtube channel where i talk about the basics of gothic culture, history, fashion, music, etc.

I wanted to ask around if there’s any specific topics you, the community, would like to hear about from someone else’s perspective.

The youtube channels name is whosgermwarfare, i don’t have any videos up yet but i would love to start recording once i have some ideas 🖤

does anyone have just general tips for baby bats?
