I go by Kaye (she/her). Here to archive all things Lostprophets. Please note that I do not stand by the crimes of Ian Watkins.

Nastnasty is gone. Do you have an archive of it?

Yeah, his Motherless account got taken down years ago. Luckily, it has been archived. Here’s the archive.today link: https://archive.ph/2014.01.21-001858/http://motherless.com/u/nastynasty

Be warned, it is a bit… hardcore, to say the least.

Ian, everything was supposed to be different. You had friends and family, thousands of fans all over the world, you had talent, fame, money, and frankly you were a handsome man, the whole world was at your feet. But unfortunately, you had a mental disorder that eventually led you to crime. I'm sorry that your brain had this disease. I'm sorry for the people who suffered because of your actions. You could have sought help from a psychiatrist, but you didn't. Today, it all ended. It ended the way it should have. I have mixed feelings about this. Bittersweet. You got what you deserved, but your life could have been completely different. “Everything could have been different”...

Well, that's it. That's how it ended. Thank you for your creativity, it will forever remain in history and in our hearts. For everything else, we cannot forgive you. Goodbye.

I just really don’t know what to say. I had a gut feeling this would eventually happen one day, but I never really mentally prepared for it. There’s not a day that goes by where I don’t wish that things could’ve turned out differently. I guess this truly is the final nail in the coffin of the band’s legacy. What a crying shame. 💔

I know I’m posting this a day late, but yesterday was “you know who”s birthday… so once again, I made some Lostprophets-themed cupcakes in celebration. Turns out, I had an extra box of Funfetti cake mix in my cupboard; the only difference is that this one was vanilla instead of chocolate (like last year’s batch). I’d also like to add that it smelled heavily of Play-Doh for some reason. 🫤

I’ve been seeing dozens of Dolly Parton baking products at Walmart for almost a year now, so I figured, “what better time to buy some than now?” I ultimately settled on a tub of creamy buttercream to frost my cupcakes. 😋

The cupcakes came out a bit drier this time around, which I assume was the result of overcooking them a tad. I also made the mistake of adding too much batter, as opposed to last year when I didn’t add enough. To fix this, I had to saw some of them down with a butter knife.

Plus, my decorating skills still leave A LOT to be desired. All I can say is that I LOATHE using decorating gel, & having shaky-ass hands. 😑

However, despite some minor setbacks, I can confirm that this baking venture was still generally successful. They were pretty tasty, & my family enjoyed them quite a bit too (I dare not tell them who the cupcakes are actually for, of course). 🤫

It’s been 1 year since the stabbing… damn.

Of course, I had to taste test my cupcakes, & I’ve gotta say, they came out quite nice (please excuse my loud chewing, & the Dua Lipa song in the background 🤭).

I used Pillsbury Funfetti chocolate cake mix, & it tasted perfect; pleasantly sweet, soft, & moist. Considering it was my first time baking, I’d say I did quite well. While I definitely need work on my design skills & penmanship (trust me when I say using writing gel is a lot more tricky than it seems), I generally liked the end result.

The only real issue I encountered was getting Ian’s age wrong on one of the numbered cupcakes. I had to carefully smear off my accidental 5 & try to transform it into a 7 (even though I was already starting to run low on white writing gel at that point).

I would definitely like to do something like this again for Ian’s future birthdays. Maybe I could make a full cake, or perhaps even cookies next year… we’ll see! In the meantime, I would just like to wish Ian a happy birthday. Spending every birthday in prison for the past decade must suck, but hopefully he’s trying to make the best of it any way he can. 🎁🎂🎉

Happy 35th Birthday Ian ♥

[ian-twatkins]

I really wanted to do something special for Ian’s birthday this year, so I decided to make some Lostprophets-themed cupcakes! This was my first time baking on my own, so please go easy on me. I’ll admit, I certainly imagined them looking better in my head, however, I really did try my best. 🙏🏼

I colored the vanilla icing with black & red food dye, & I also made sure to use red & white cupcake liners in accordance with the color scheme. I probably could’ve put a bit more batter since you can tell they didn’t quite fill out the liners as much as they should’ve. I’ll be sure to keep that in mind the next time I do something like this in the future.

On a humorous note, my father questioned my design choices, & asked me point blank if I was depicting satanic imagery or not, lol. 🤣 I reassured him that the symbols weren’t satanic (as far as I’m aware, anyway).
