Life Update

Oops, I haven't written here in over a month! Not much has been going on, but I wanted to talk a bit about movies and music I've been enjoying — and some lolita finds.

As I write this I have tickets to see Molchat Doma in May...but given what's happening right now and that the band is in Belarus...I wonder honestly if that concert will still happen. The important thing is that people are safe so I won't cry a river if it doesn't work out.

As for other music, I've been listening to a lot of Male Tears lately, as well as ACTORS, Diva Destruction, and Boy Harsher. Male Tears's latest album, "Trauma Club" is really great, especially the song Model Citizen!


I've been watching some horror lately, mostly bad stuff though. I watched the 2022 Texas Chainsaw Massacre and it was laughably bad. I could probably write a whole blog post just about that but to sum it up, it came across as some "anti-SJW" shit. The gore was incredible though, I will say that.

I also watched The Dark and the Wicked, which is a Shudder exclusive. It had good atmosphere and some scares...but it just didn't explain enough! I don't need things over-explained to me in horror, but this was bare bones. I don't know, I'm waiting for a Shudder exclusive to really wow me and it hasn't happened. At least there's Dragula.

Turning to lolita, I recently went to my comm's Valentine's Day meet. We just met up at a public space to chat, since things aren't safe enough re: Omicron yet to book a restaurant. I wore Vampire Prelude because red roses are on theme.

JSK: Alice and the Pirates
Corset: Sheglit
Blouse, socks, bag: Moitie
Shoes: Yosuke

Besides that I've been doing OK on my lolita resolutions. Got a Wishlist main piece this week, which I actually posted in my last post! It's Mary Magdalene's Elodie Doll JSK and with tags. The piece isn't super rare, but it is in pink and mint. I got the mint one and can't wait to receive it. I've been looking for years.


I also got a VM cotton blouse and bonnet secondhand! I needed a blouse like this with a bow, to add visual interest when I wear the JSK — it's only of those pieces that sort of requires something at your collar. 





Anyway that's all I had to share. Back to watching movies. Hopefully I'll have something more interesting to share next time.
