do you have any facts about goth culture

Goths dress dark to hide themselves. Goths who are easier to see from their brighter clothing are called Visigoths.

Me, at younger punks and goths:

YOUR FASHION CAME FROM SEX WORKERS AND THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW YOUR MUSIC IS LITERALLY YOUR FAVS RIPPING OFF BLACK AND BROWN MUSIC THE OG PUNKS OF THE 70S CREATED PUNK TO DELIBERATELY GO AGAINST THE HYPER CONSUMERIST MAINSTREAM EXCESSES OF 70S CULTURE AND THAT IS INHERENTLY POLITICAL WHETHER THE YT PUNKS REALIZED IT OR NOT!!!!!!!

DIY Basics

-Goth DIY Tutorials Number 1 (Part 1)- Hi there, I decided to start a little DIY series! I’m not the most professional at anything lol but I’ve been doing DIY and crafts my entire life and been part of the goth subculture for 10+ years. I’ve seen a lot of baby bats and people inexperienced in crafts online saying they don’t know how to DIY thrift store clothing to be goth so I’m here to help! I believe DIY is super important to the goth subculture and should be easy and accessible, and if I can stop anyone from buying big fast fashion brands I’ve done my job.

For the first post of this series I thought I’d link some sources for people new to DIY or looking for some easy projects to do yourself (projects will be in part 2)🖤This will help you find a starting point if the idea of DIY is overwhelming.

None of these links are mine! I will be posting my own tutorials as part of this series though:)

Some of the most basic starting points for goth DIY are using fishnet tights as a top (just cut a hole in the crotch and cut off the feet), putting safety pins in everything, adding holes to clothes, and adding pins and patches. I like to make my own patches, either by free handing or stenciling, which I linked a tutorial for in this post.

Helpful tools to have:

(I don’t agree with buying from aliexpress but their other sources are great!)

“Goth girlfriend,” rant

I’m so fucking tired of these basic ass dudebros claiming “I want a goth gf,” but throw a hissy fit as soon as they figure out that they have to listen to actual goth music and not some basic rock music like Deftones, which don’t get me wrong I love Deftones too but I do think it’s quite hilarious whenever I see men claim that love goth girls but get mad when they find out that that they have to actually commit like most men.

When I say commit I mean accept the fact that we don’t look like fucking e girls you see on TikTok.

You don’t want a Goth girl Greg, you want a e girl.

Goth music is goth culture!

Goth is a music based subculture!

Not an aesthetic.

I’m a Mall Goth and Vampire Goth but at least I know that Goth comes from a music background and not some fucking fashion statement.

Rant over.

the subtle touch of the creature reading percy byshhe shelley's poetry to lisa is enough to make any girl with a yearning problem clinically insane.

not just any poem specifically "To Mary" ugh the romance in this movie i'm typically a horror and thriller girl, not used to happy endings but this movie...this is everything i've wanted in a relationship. i mean the unconditional love and domesticity not the murder and sewing back on body parts which i honestly am not opposed to...
