Blogging This Tweet Because This Explains SO MUCH About The Mindset Of Pretty Much All The Folks I’ve

the point of being alt is to break OUT of the box

hi so i keep seeing so so so many posts about people asking if they are punk because they do x,y,z or posts asking how to look more punk or more emo or more scene, and while theres nothing wrong with asking for fashion tips, music recs, advice, etc,

PLS REMEMBER, u should wear *WHAT YOU LIKE* and listen to music that *YOU* like!!

Labels are used to describe things! we shouldn't change our tastes and preferences to fit a label. that is literally the opposite of the point of being alternative. focus on becoming yourself, then worry about applying labels after! experiment, try new things! there is no rush.

i used to ask myself "does this outfit make me look emo/scene/punk/etc enough?" and i realized bruh what am i doing. it does not matter. labels describe me, not the other way around.

life is too short to constrict yourself to any label!!!

i wanna look punk, but i probably look like a music student

my worst fear is someone mistaking me for a dark academia person…

tfw you’re trying to be smooth but gravity is smoother

I STILL think it was a missed opportunity to have the sorcerers not have, like, gold blood. Or at least it turns/shimmers gold when a spell is cast. Like. Imagine. Merlins got a bloody nose and a hole in his gut, but instead of being red all the blood glistens like a god damn oil spill. That would've been sick, and also wouldve exacerbated Merlin's otherness/fear of being inhuman in the sexiest way possible. We were robbed

when i say i’m from ukraine, people assume i live somewhere else now. when i say i live in ukraine, they assume i’m somehow immune to war, and there’s a logical division between a ukrainian they chat with on discord and a ukrainian on the news. bitches my yaoi is written from the bomb shelter

The cruelty of racist white men.

the most powerful sorcerer to ever walk the earth. a rat
