Surprise! I’m not dead!

God I can’t believe it’s been 2 years since I last updated this blog. So if I’m not dead then where have I been? Well, the honest answer is that I got burnt out from running this blog. This started as a hyper fixation of mine that kept me sane as a depressed high schooler and eventually grew into an over 3k following.

While 3k is baby numbers on the internet, it’s still big for me and something I was really proud of, that’s why I didn’t feel right leaving this blog to gather dust without one final update to anyone who’s still around.

So what’s going to happen to this blog? Well, nothing. I will be keeping this blog up as an archive, but seeing as I hardly use tumblr anymore, no new posts/reposts will be made after this final update.

I wanted to thank everyone for the love and support over the years. I’ve met some incredible people and made some lasting memories through this blog.

That being said, this is Self-Proclaimed-Heretic signing off. Goodbye everyone.

Lines from Dance Fever that have me by the throat:

“Everything I thought I knew is falling out of view in this blindness I’m condemned too”

“Did I disappoint you? Did mommy make you sad?”

“When decided to wage Holy War it looked very much like staring at my bedroom floor”

“I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing, my empty halls to echo with grand self mythology”

“To exist in the face of suffering and death and somehow keep singing?”

Listened to Dance Fever last night at midnight when it dropped in my time zone. Usually I would have a lot to say about Florence’s music, but I am honestly speechless. I can’t formulate words to convey all that is going through my head about this album. I don’t think I have fully processed that it’s out yet.

My initial thoughts: Cassandra, Dream Girl Evil and Daffodil are the soundtrack to my villain era.

Tell me what songs you guys have been looping religiously!

And have I learned restraint? Am I quiet enough for you yet? 🩸🔪🦇
