I had an old pin collection on this vest ages ago, and it was buried in the back of my closet. I figured what the hell, why not?

I’m very much so not done, still have a few things to add, but as a total noob I’m actually pretty proud of myself 🥺

I referred to her as, "Sweezy" instead of "Soo-zee" in front of my friends and they've been making fun of me for like an hour. This fucking sucks

I got this clip from a friends Instagram when she went to one of their live performances around 4/21/23. Nox Novacula is a death rock band from Seattle. I know this isn’t a lot to go off of and don’t blame you if you can’t find it cus i’m having even less luck

I haven’t been in the subculture for the longest time although I grew up with parts of it due to my mom being involved. When I got into online communities I used to be really easily annoyed at people categorizing things as goth that aren’t the music. Someone told me trap rap was goth and since I was also probably just a stupid kid I had to think about that for months. I got into online arguments, and all that kind of stuff.

I haven’t thought about it for a while but recently I’ve realized I stopped caring about things being mislabeled, me being insulted based of my music taste and appearance, the stereotypes (the goth girl thing still annoys me thought, if you know what I mean). I just feel like I kinda got more chill after being involved for a while. Does anyone relate?

One thing I do think is that no matter how many rap songs get labeled as goth, we always have the scene and all of those things like the goth e girls are just online and not really actually affecting me/us. Although I do live in a specific part of Germany where there’s about 0,1 e girls lol, so maybe that changes things.

I laugh about a lot of things I used to get mad over and don’t start arguments anymore. Sometimes I correct people in a friendly way if it’s appropriate but that’s it.
