Let's go on an adventure

🌸TERFs/ace and aro exclusionists/MAPs don't interact thanks🌸 Black lives matter, free Palestine.🍉 THIS BLOG CONTAINS NSFW CONTENT, not all of it is tagged! Marcy/Marsh, white, he/she/they. I’m 26 years old and happily taken🥰 My icon was made by aceuserboxes (they're deactivated now) and my header is made by KirstyCarter on deviantart. Also Myqueenmarceline on Ao3!
Hi there! My name's Marsh/Marcy and I'm 26. My pronouns are he (preferred)/she/they. I'm genderfluid and experimenting with them, so that list may change. I'm sapphic and don't really mind what else you want to call me. I'm also Canadian🇨🇦 and have a lovely fiancée I talk to in tags sometimes❤️
My tumblr has some NSFW content that is not all tagged and some politics. If either of those will be an issue feel free to just block. I'm not very interested in debating or arguing. A general summary is: I'm a leftist, I'm queer, and I believe in human rights and better social support systems for everyone. Trans rights are essential to fight for, especially those of trans women (and yes, transmisogyny is real!). We can (and should) free Palestine without being antisemitic.
I've fallen out of the habit of tagging reblogs, but if you need me to start doing so for something specific, please feel free to let me know!
I go by the same name on Ao3, feel free to go find all of my fanfic there, though it's also under the "my writing" tag along with original works :)
Lots of rambling about me and my personal interests under the cut. I hope you have fun scrolling my blog!😊
I love learning about many things in life, including literature, media studies, history, social science, psychology, biology, and geology. There isn't really a rhyme or reason to this blog, I'm just reblogging stuff I like. I especially love dinosaurs (especially sauropods), insects (especially beetles and pill bugs), dogs (especially Huskies, Borzoi, and Labs), reptiles (especially lizards and snakes), birds (especially chickens, cardinals, and jays), and minerals (quartz, amethyst, and turquoise).
I also love science-fiction, fantasy, and horror. I am fascinated by how people develop fictional worlds and mythos, and how we can read them through different critical lenses. It would take too long to list out my favourite authors, but the best book I've read this year is High Times in the Low Parliament by Kelly Robson.
My main fandoms are Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, The Owl House, Percy Jackson, Welcome to Night Vale, Person of Interest, the Alien movies, Otherside Picnic, Monstress (the comic), Mushishi, Dinosaur Sanctuary (please talk to me about this manga!!), and the Companion movie (2025)
If you're interested in my own tags, I mainly use #my writing and #my stuff to post stories. I use #ask to respond to asks, feel free to chat about anything! My face is under #my selfies and #my face, but I don't post those very often anymore.
I also create moodboards over @lgbtquiap-moodboards. I'm a bit behind but if you want to go check it out and send in any requests, feel free to do so!
pick a pair of pants at the thrift store that you think are nice looking and comfy. then pair it with a t-shirt from the menswear section. make sure it calls to you. personalise it if you feel like changing anything about it. you have to dress like who you are authentically.
if your most authentic self is goth, and the way you sourced the clothes is more faithful to goth values, then it's going to be a super comfy goth outfit.
remember, goth is not a look, so much as it is a lifestyle. you have to have the values and practices and the aesthetic will follow
I have a few ideas but depends on how much effort you want to put on it. Diy is not only a punk feature, goths have always diy'd their clothes. I am more punk than goth but the two are not that far! They are like alt cousins :)
Quickest and easiest way to make a pair of sweatpants look goth is to bleach them. You could either dilute it and spray it on the pants or put a bit of bleach in a container, take a brush and just splash it on the pants. Leave them outside in the sun for a bit and wash them (do not put them with other clothes just to be sure you are not ruining anything). I'll say one hour and you have your personal pair of goth sweatpants.
Another thing you could do is to put holes in them. Take a pair of scissor, cut a small hole and then bush a razor on it to give it a more ripped look.
If you have more time, a bit of money and you want to try something more complicated, you can sew patches, paint them, add some metal eyelets (idk if that's how they are called in english. The metal things in the shoe where you put your laces in), chains, etc.
As for the top, band shirts!! Black shirts!! Black tank tops!! Halloween themed stuff!! You can also find them already goth enough or add patches, pins, laces, etc etc. Same goes for sweatshirts! Be creative! And also accessories!! Spike bracelets, necklaces, etc can change the look and make it more goth even if you are just wearing a pajamas.
Definitely look at old goths looks. They can be the source of great inspiration for diys. You do not need any fancy or expensive equipment or that much experience to make cool things. And remember that all of these subcultures are about breaking societal norms and expectations. So honestly going around in your pjs sounds very goth!!!
I think people misunderstood what I meant with the sweatpants: I do not want to be seen in public in sweatpants. I would rather just go with no pants at all than have to wear those in public, but unfortunately that attracts unwanted attention.
When I said "I don't want to look like I'm wearing sweatpants", I did not mean "if only there was a way for me to wear sweatpants", I meant "I do not want to be a person who wears sweatpants in public".
If I said "I hate lemons so much that I'd rather eat human shit than touch a lemon", that does not mean that I am looking for suggestions on how to safely consume feces. This is not directed at you personally, I always get misunderstood in ways like this and I don't know how to make it stop happening every time I open my mouth.
You could try being more specific from the beginning. People are not gonna be able to guess that "clothes that could also double as pyjamas" and "gothy and masc" also mean that you absolutely do not want to be seen wearing sweatpants in public, since you also asked for further tips to make sweatpants look less casual. They will assume you want something comfortable and casual (because you said pyjamas) and since you were curious about how to style sweatpants in a goth, dressy way they're going to go down that road. You did say dressy, but that one word will not communicate that sweatpants are off the list.
You said there's no way to make something comfy and look good, but people don't innately know "what looking good" to you means, and it can't be sweatpants at all and you would not want to even be seen in public in them. If you want to find tips to feel comfortable in dressy clothing you have to say that from the beginning as well.
It's like you're setting invisible tripwires for people by assuming there's more meaning to your words than you're actually communicating with them. Of course people are gonna trip.
And showing more appreciation when people take their time to give you advice, even if they misunderstand would be good. Now you're just rewarding them with a slap on the face by always emphasizing how little they understood you - that can make people feel dumb and embarassed for trying to help at all.
I definitely fucked the dog with the way I put myself in words again. I regret doing that and will unfortunately do it again, because if I knew how to stop doing that, I would. I should have been more clear at the start about trying to find something that FEELS COMFORTABLE but simultaneously DOES NOT LOOK CASUAL. No streetwear, no sportswear, no underwear, no camping gear. I had not really clarified the requirements to myself before posting.
It's much less intentionally setting tripwires and more like forgetting to tell people that there's no floor in the kitchen. And neither side understands why we're not in the same room anymore.
There are stretch dress pants! And also stretch dress shirts, but those look distinctly different from regular non-stretch dress shirts. The stretch dress pants look nearly indistinguishable from regular dress pants, as long as you wear something on top that covers the belt area bc it does have visual elastic there.
apparently youre supposed to perform. they love it when you perform. but it has to be authentic. they hate it when it's not authentic. but you have to perform.
knew this woman who used to be a gay man and when he was a gay man he liked ‘ironically’ referring to himself as she/her and so when he came out as a woman he decided the next logical step was to also switch his pronouns to he/him.
game dev: we make deep, meaningful, games with real messages. we don’t want our games to be just mindless and feel good - we make games to say something about the world we live in
community: hey this bit seems to be kind of weirdly racist
game dev: actually we aren’t saying anything and our games are just for fun and there is absolutely no correlation between this and anything in the real world
Since it's been a year since Joann closed, I'm trying to get some data about how people are shopping for sewing supplies.
I'm trying to collect some info about where former Joann customer sewists are shopping since it's now been over a year since Joann closed.
Here's a google form with a lot of questions on it. If you don't have the time, here's a tumblr poll with one question on it.
I'm really interested in the results but I don't actually have a plan for doing something with the results. You're just indulging a nutty blogger's sense of curiosity.
Where are you shopping without Joann Fabrics?
I shop only at small business in-person stores
I shop online or at large chain stores, and do not shop at small businesses
I shop online or at large chain stores, and also shop at small businesses
I know where my local small business is but it's not close enough to me
I do not know where my local small business sewing store is
