What are some good fashion instances on fediverse? Also open to specific fashion accounts to follow! I like ouji fashion, emo/scene, techwear, punk, goth (cyber, pastel), kei, blanket "alternative", and anything that makes you look like a butler from any time period.

Hi! Time to repost my #introduction. I'm a #UX #designer in the USA (#Philadelphia) and focus on #enterprise design. Otherwise, I like to sketch #cats in #procreate make physical #art, and #surface art bicycle, hike in the woods, #garden, #read and wet felt. I also dabble in #wordpress and run a few sites. And am particularly fond of #goth music #horrormovies #spooky stuff like #cemetery tours. I hope to connect here, create some community. and have interesting conversations

Whelp, I was too lazy(add) to get around to finding a new instance before my old instance was shut down (Yeah THAT one). The signs were coming for a long time, I just had other priorities. Now I am trying to recreate my account and connections from there.

So new instance, time for an #introduction post. (I never actually did an introduction post on my old account).

My name is Claire, and I am a #transgender woman. Although I have sort of known I was a woman since early puberty, I didn't accept it and decide to transition until my mid 50s. I have been fully out as a #TransWoman and living my life as a woman since May, 2024. My transition is still ongoing and is a big part of my life. My posts here are going to talk a lot about transition. I talk a lot about my transition in person too. I am still only attracted to women, so that makes me a #lesbian.

Besides being a hot mess of a #trans girl, here's some things about my life:

* I work in tech. I am a Principal Engineer for a big tech corporation. I work on and around media streaming tech.
* Before streaming media I worked on computer games, chances are you've heard of a couple of them.
* I am passionate about #music and especially #LiveMusic. I have eclectic tastes and fangirl about many different genres, mainly contemporary ones. #Indie, #IndieFolk, #LatinPop, #Reggaeton, #alternative, #flamenco, #punk, #NewWave, #PostPunk, #industrial, #goth, #DarkWave.
* #cycling is my main way of staying physically active (besides going to dance clubs with my friends), I try to ride at least 3 days a week. Message me if you want to follow my #strava account.
* My politics are #liberal, with mainly #leftist leanings, but most of my hard core lefty friends think I am too conservative. I generally don't get into politics here except for #LGBTQA , #feminism , and overall #humanrights
* I used to study #photography, but it's been a while since I've been active. I just bought a couple of film cameras that I hope will inspire me to shoot more.
* Mom to 3 awesome adult daughters, 2 of whom are #twins
* I have 2 dogs, that I co-parent with my ex-wife.

Posts from this account are intended for a #transgender and/or #queer audience. If you are not #trans or clearly super gay from your post history I won't accept the follow. If you are just interested in my political stuff, follow sfba.social/@techno_serf

***Edit:** because I left out a couple of important things*

Aloha, I'm new on this instance, so I'd like to introduce myself. #Musician and #photographer from Southern #Germany (#Bodensee). Disabled because of ALS but I can still use #Cubase with an eye gaze control: I do #electronic #darkwave, #ambient, soft industrial. I am #vegan, #leftist and #goth. I love #horror and #science-fiction movies and books. Up to 9 years ago I was a pro double bass player. Tooting in DE and EN. Nice to meet you all. (:

Goth Is White: Pallor, Prejudice and Purity
Shonalika
@shonalika
the deep dive into the history, gatekeeping and exclusion, racism and colorism, uplifting of pallor, flirting with fascism, fetishization and appropriation, conflicting ideologies and reality, and all-round white supremacist tendencies of the alternative/goth subculture that absolutely no-one asked for

I haven't blogged in a while, so I'll pin this tidbit for later:

I loved the #Goth concept and didn't let being Black (read: racists) stop me. Kittie Katie used to says she was "so Goth she was born Black" and I stand by that too.

Also so glad I dodged the Alt-to-Selfhating-Hotep pipeline. Whew.

Moving hosts from emacs.ch, time for a new #introduction.

I'm old and disgusted with the squandered/co-opted promise of the WWW. We were going to make something good with it. Instead I'm on #Gemini and back on #Gopher. I program in a mainstream language for work, and so write weird stuff mostly in #CommonLisp for fun.

I'm an old #goth and love the aesthetics and literature of the fin de siècle. I also love #horror but I'm much more well-versed in horror #literature than film.

If I talk about politics, it will be more about issues, events, and theory than about elections and politicians.

I lighten up my dark aesthetic and poke a ray of hope through my despair by watching #StarTrek. Yes, of course #DeepSpaceNine (#DS9) is my favorite series. I study #tlhInganHol for fun, but I'm not very good at it. tawmeyDaq vulqangan, tlhImmeyDaq tlhIngan.

I post mostly in #English, read posts in Spanish, French, and tlhInganHol; will machine-translate posts in other languages that look interesting. Toots are deleted after a month unless pinned or active.

This is the official Mastodon account for Satan Not Hatin' - a campaign by the Global Order of Satan to fight back against encroaching hate and fascism in the alt music scenes we love.
