Post about fandom! Or whatever! Whether it's a rave about some obscure series, or an essay dissecting every last reason why some internet-famous author should rethink their career, someone will probably read it at some point! We also just chat about life.

Re: Funny Stuff

The most boring woman I know irl describes herself in her bio as a she/her, a "hot mess", and an ~envoy from the underworld~. She goes by a name like "Deathsilver". The impression this gives is misleading for someone who seems most at home in a Debenhams. From social media I gather she does take gothy filtered selfies in her bedroom sometimes, but irl her clothes and makeup are plain and not gothic in the slightest, and her job is mundane. She won't even go into a cafe she doesn't know. She promotes products every so often in the hopes that a company might crown her an influencer, but they all ignore her. She promotes Mermaids, too... and everyone ignores her. Reminder to all, between my chuckles, that the internet is not real life.

(other than the promoting-of-Mermaids, I don't dislike her; I just can't respect her mind and can't help cracking up at the difference between the online persona and the person irl. If Starbucks tells her that peach lattes are in, she'll love a peach latte until buzzfeed tells her they're unfashionable. There's nothing gothic or mysterious about her.)
