Today’s advice from your Goth Auntie

Stop slouching, drink some water, take your meds.

Be the person that your younger self needed in their life.

The Cursed Object and the Thing in the Walls have decided to start a band (again), and Lurky isn’t invited. Sulking is happening.

❤️ Auntie Jilli

Reasons why I wear a veil to church:

I am a devout, humble, modest, pious, virtuous bride of Christ.

It reminds me of my duty as a good Catholic woman to not judge God's congregation when everybody is being an epic pain in the mighty rear at Mass (that being said, I'm not going to the one at noon on Sunday again).

I need an embroidered diaphanous force field around my head to serve as a barrier that shields me from the chatty parishioners who go to church to socialize when I just want to pray.

That moment when we had a bat inside the church during Mass. 🦇

Everyone else: "Call Animal Control! Don't let it bite anyone! Hopefully it doesn't have rabies!"

Me: "The Holy Spirit is goth AF today..."

Having support is so fundamental to one's life. I'm lucky to have the support I do, and try to never take it for granted.

The husband has been making good uses of my homemade herbal salves. 💚

There are days when you just gotta write your enemy's name on a slip of paper in black ink, put it into a jar, chuck the whole thing into a garbage bin at a gas station when the clock strikes midnight, and let Hecate deal with them.
