Southern Gothic: Abandoned Churches, cryptic gospel signs, don’t go near the marshes, elusive and overly religious people that are probably Up To Something but everyone is too afraid to ask what
Midwestern Gothic: Something Lives In The Corn, broken down trucks, gravel roads that lead nowhere, empty gas stations placed between tiny towns with only one attendant who makes too much eye contact but never speaks
Southwestern Gothic: Animal skulls hung from posts, shacks miles into the barren desert that still look lived in but nobody is ever seen around, They Watch From The Mountains, shapeshifting creatures hiding in the brush
PNW Gothic: thick unrelenting fog, distant howls, a nearby branch cracking followed by abrupt cessation of all animal noise, ravens that beseech you with hauntingly intelligent gazes, dense forest that looks the same in every direction, impossibly large toadstools
Northeastern Gothic: the sea and the sky are both gray and go on forever, the hills are old and remember when they were mountains, autumn leaves rustling, tendrils of cold air, rattling windowpanes and cold rain, the color of the sky just before it gets dark
I used to cringe so hard at my “I’m not like other girls” phase until I realized that most girls have this phase and what we actually mean is, “I’m not a thoughtless one-dimensional caricature of makeup and boobs, which is all I’ve been taught to believe girls are.” How can women be viewed so poorly that little girls everywhere all think they’re unique just for having independent thoughts and interests?
just to be clear, I’m staying here as long as this site functions. I have 0 intentions of deleting this blog, I will go down with this ship if only to see exactly how bad it gets
I LOVE THE GREAT MOUSE DETECTIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’M SICK OF DENYING IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE GREAT MOUSE DETECTIVE IS THE ONLY ADAPTATION OF MY WORK THAT TRULY UNDERSTANDS THE CRUCIAL THEMES

it’s so difficult not being able to use milennial humor in a corporate setting. like i made a mistake today and i wanted to tell my supervisor it’s because i suffer from Dumb Bitch Disease, but do you think that would fly?? fuck no. i gotta say shit like, “sorry for the misunderstanding!” i can’t wait till the workforce is made up entirely of millennials and i can say “sorry i drank idiot juice for breakfast this morning” and my coworkers will be like “oh worm.”
im not gonna like stop using this site or anything but i can pretty confidently say this is one of the dumbest moves ive seen a site make in a while. instead of fixing the actual problems with their website ie pornbots on every fucking post, actual pedophiles, theyre just going to ban everything horny which most likely isnt going to solve those problems and is going to hurt lots of sex workers and artists as well as drive people off the site
