I mean I've been at the periphery of the culture since '94 if we're gonna go there, but before that it was punks, hippies, and classic beatniks. Bad rule then, bad rule now, stairs exist. But dang, bud, chilling was my whole point!
you know how one of the fundamental rules of goth clubwear is “boots first, THEN corset”?
i feel like there needs to be a costume drama variant:
chemise first!!! THEN, and ONLY then, corset
#i mean check the tags too#baby bats#I'm only 35 but i definitely knew a beatnik from the day#corset first has been in the local subculture for 16 years because my sister and i started it#but cute

Lol wut? Boots last, you can't dance in a too-tight corset and you're gonna kick shit and fall off stairs if you're tromping around half-naked in boots.
It's for looks, not actual waist-training, geez, what are they teaching the baby bats? Be comfortable! We're here to be comfortable outside of mainstream society! But either do your nails before or do them after your hair, corset, and boots, even if you have a quick-dry top-coat.

#i mean technically I'm a beatnik but I've been at the edges of the scene for decades#your corset is too tight if you can't get your boots on how are you gonna dance?#counter-culture for comfortability#I have like 5 corsets in the mail they're medical devices for my broken body but they're for sex so like absolutely not too tight#you can rock a corset and still breathe

The world's oldest story? Astronomers say global myths about 'seven sisters' stars may reach back 100,000 years https://phys.org/news/2020-12-world-oldest-story-astronomers-global.html
Holy shit, this is cool!
So many cultures call the Pleiades some variation of the "seven sisters" despite only having six visible stars. There only appear to be six because two of the stars are so close together as to appear as one.
The myths also mention one sister leaving or hiding to explain why there's only six. And based off observations and measurements, those two that are so close together used to be visibly separate. One literally has moved to hide.
And based off the similarities between the more commonly known Greek myth and the Aboriginal Australian myth, plus some other stuff, this myth could possibly even date back to when humanity still all resided in Africa!

I don’t know who needs to hear this but you can’t “ruin” 2021 by making hopeful statements about it, people on the internet are not making prophecies, bad things don’t happen because you dare to hope for good things.
I know all the jokes are fun but I would like to earnestly and sincerely remind you that none of it is real. Nothing anyone says, hopes or “predicts” about the year to come has the power to cause future events. You’re allowed to say that you hope 2021 brings good things for you. You will not be somehow punished for that.
#you've got this#speak for yourself my words are knives and i can ruin someone's year with them#but you guys are good you guys didn't study a disgusting amount of statistics to the point that people think you're psychic#but i use my powers for good i only give out positive self-fulfilling prophecies like#so i mean you've got this#trust me I'm psychic
