I am not adept at taking decent selfies. Have a clear shot of bunnies instead, below. From when I was clearing out my camera roll.
Celebrated by doing more or less the same stuff I do every week:
- slept in on a Sunday thanks to blackout curtains
- drank out of an Edward Gorey mug
- wore last night’s Killstar t-shirt until I bathed behind a Gashycrumb Tinies shower curtain
- queued a list of male goth characters (check out the female one)
- listened to dark wave
- read a murder mystery (A Room Full of Bones)
- currently watching classic horror (The Pit and the Pendulum) with fam
Phoebe Bridgers and her brother Jackson, both wearing Thom Browne SS18, on the red carpet at the Grammys 2021.
I missed World Goth Day again.
Release the bats!
Happy World Goth Day!

Thirty Days to a Complete Gothic Transformation
In honor of #WorldGothDay, I dug up this piece my college roomie and I wrote in 1996.
Thirty Days to a Complete Gothic Transformation
1 - Throw out every pink garment you own.
2 - Get rid of the pale yellow and the sea-green too.
3 - Start by wearing a white shirt, but with a black jacket.
4 - Lose any Keds. Your shoes must be dark, heavy. Like your soul.
5 - Move up to a black shirt. Have many. It will be necessary.
6 - Dye your hair a shade darker, but not black, not yet–not till you’re ready.
7 - Two words: Black eyeliner. Buy it. Wear it. Get to know it.
8 - Stop smiling, unless you’re standing alone in the rain.
9 - Jewelry: crosses. Crystals. Talismans. Gargoyles.
“THE CURE” ORIENTATION WEEK:
10 - Start with “Friday I’m in Love.” Move up to “Just Like Heaven,” if ready.
11 - Find pictures of Robert Smith. Fall in tragic love.
12 - More albums: Staring at the Sea. Disintegration. Pornography, if you dare.
13 - Study Robert Smith’s hair. Buy some mousse. See what you can do.
14 - Learn the lyrics by heart. Listen by candlelight.
15 - Be like Robert: add blood-red lipstick to your look.
16 - If you don’t have a leather jacket by now, get one. (Black.)
17 - Sit in deserted chapels gazing at the stained glass. Cry if possible.
18 - Eat listlessly. Enjoy nothing that is not beautiful and unattainable.
19 - Spend more time in graveyards. Lie beneath a tombstone, staring at the sky.
20 - Candles. This cannot be stressed enough. Black ones.
21 - Read tragedies. All sorts.
22 - Rent “Interview With the Vampire.” Feel Louis’ pain.
23 - Write to Anne Rice. Tell her she speaks to you in your depression.
24 - Write to Robert Smith. Tell him the same.
25 - Lie in a coffin. Blue-white lipstick recommended.
26 - I think you’re ready for black hair by now. And another earring.
27 - Learn to play guitar. Practice on rooftops, late at night.
28 - Rent “The Crow.” Weep for the death of Brandon Lee.
29 - Try to contact Brandon and convicted, innocent witches through a seance.
30 - You have become one with the darkness. Welcome.
Happy World Goth Day 2022, everyone!
World Goth Day is always May 22nd. For this year, 2022, that is this upcoming Sunday. Do any of you have any fun plans for that day?
