I MADE MY FIRST EVER KANDI BRACELET !!!!!!
I’ve gotten REALLY obsessed with Scenecore and Scene in general. One of the things I like the most is the accessories!! I already have a few kandi bracelets that my friends made (a single that says plague on it, a rainbow cuff, and a little green and white one with a star smiley on it, two of the three courtesy of my bff @/sharkysalmon) ( ´ ▽ ` ).｡ｏ♡
I really want to learn how to make a cuff, but I dunno what I want it to be!! If anyone has suggestions, lemme know!!! (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ
(also, hand reveal i guess XD)
I wanted to draw a lil' portrait of myself imagining how i would look like on hrt and after top surgery, finally being able to rock crop tops i want. It gave me so much gender euphoria, i can't even >< I can't wait to get further into transitioning medically, im trying to transition socially for now and .... its a struggle sometimes, but it's oh so worth it. In the end it became my new awatar, hope you like it :>
Also - i'm cooking some more arts in the back, i just have to somehow finish them and not start another milion new projects :"") Wish me luck with my chaotic mind...
Completely and utterly correct
“cringe culture is dead!”
no it’s not. like i totally get saying this when you’re from an alt community or have an unconventional hobby and want to have fun, more power to you, but cringe culture literally never died. in fact, in the past few years, it’s actively been getting kinda worse
i remember back in 2016 at the peak of ‘cringe culture’ that it was still very easy to avoid. cringe was a genre that could be filtered and blocked. you could stop watching leafyishere and keemstar and whatever. you could very easily just see an EPIC SJW CRINGE COMPILATION and scroll past and forget about it. they were popular, sure, but you as an individual could ignore it. you had to actively go to a ‘cringe’ subreddit or scroll through the pits of deviantart to view cringe-related content.
cringe culture doesn’t need to call itself cringe culture because cringe culture has become normal internet culture.
it isn’t a niche anymore. it isn’t something that you can just switch off or block out. it’s in short-form content, in AI content, on social media. mocking people’s appearances and hobbies and interests and mannerisms isn’t a ‘cringe’ thing anymore, it’s just an average day on Instagram. AI content farms regurgitate everything tenfold. the divide between right and left has never been as defined on the internet as it is now.

Hello everyone 🦇✨
Just your typical alt girlie getting back into Tumblr again! Can’t wait to relive my 2010 era again with my 2022 self✨
my idol
oh my god so theres this girl at my school named laura and she is my absolute idol. she has a septum AND two regular nose peircings, an eyebrow ring, her hair is black with purple streaks, she always has the coolest clothes ever and she has a bunch of tattoos. oml shes so cool. shes literally my idol
Back with another alternative Unsure-if-it’s-a-hot-take-here-but-would-def-be-a-hot-take-on-other-social-media-platforms.
“Well I have to buy from (fast fashion/unethical fashion brand) because I’m Alt and local/thrift stores don’t have any alt stuff that fits my style!!!” Is complete bullshit. Make it yourself like the original alternative subculture did.
You don’t know how?
The internet has a thousand tutorials. If you’re overwhelmed and don’t know where to start you can literally DM me and I will send you some of my favorite YT channels that I learned from when I started dressing alternative years ago. A bottle of dye cost me like $8 last time I bought it, and I can use that to dye a whole bucket of clothes black, and an even larger amount of clothes if I want some grey tones and I’m not too worried about having it all completely black.
But I don’t have time to learn all that right now!!!!
That’s completely fine and understandable! I’ve been there, but it’s not an excuse to constantly consume fast fashion. Pick up one skill at a time and change your wardrobe slowly. It’s not going to be instantaneous. Also skills you already have are transferable. You like drawing/sketching? Get a couple markers and transfer it onto a tshirt, and now you’ve got the coolest shirt in the room.
But what about disabled people????
I’m going to be so real with you rn, every single disabled person in my life (even ones I just casually talk to at art markets) are the most creative people I know and this one just feels like a random scapegoat that able-bodied people throw around. I’m disabled too, specifically surrounding muscle/connective tissue function, chronic pain, and motor skills. I work at a slower pace, with mediums I know I’m good with, and take breaks, as do all my friends and acquaintances who share similar problems. If you’re disabled enough you cannot do so, this does not apply to you and I support you getting your needs met in the way that makes the most sense for you.
It’s a lot more counter-culture to just listen to the music and wear a basic pair of jeans and a shirt from the thrift that you put a skull on with sharpie, than to wear plastic crap from Shein and Temu. It’s not really raging against the machine to buy into it. Being clothed is important and a human right, however having your perfect ideal wardrobe immediately, cheaply, and at the expense of the wellbeing of either the planet or other people is not a human right. There’s a bit of a difference between those two, and you can survive in a pair of basic blue jeans, I promise you.
