BIRDS FEAR DEATH AND SO WILL I

This is my flesh, can you see it move?

new piece on null.skin written by Cat, a member of the null.cave discord server

a visceral essay that bleeds. it discusses the emo noise project of Kelly Wilhite "birds fear death," and growing up trans in a conservative household where hunting is religion

respect the grinch 2

i don’t even know what to say to you. your dad is fucked up, dude. i’m fucked up, dude.

respect the grinch 2

in which constance p. loses her mind over uncle bob's script for "the grinch ii"

"if someone sees themselves in something, they start to believe in it."

@gragadegoul really pushed herself and created what is now the longest, funniest, most revealing, most meta essay we've published

"there is no truth to a bonsai."

RULES FOR PORNSICK DOVAHKIIN

Do not reflect on your actions for even one second until you are done.

the first piece not written by yours truly is live on null.skin

we've been working on this one for quite a while, please show @planetarytransformation much love in the reblogs

we're incredibly proud to host this piece. it is dark and it is trans and it is full of heavy language - reader beware

re: this isn't melanchole

'last chance to see' is not an album that wants to be fifteen again.

new piece up on null.skin about salvia palth's most recent album last chance to see.

much more serious and dark than our last essay.

we personally recommend listening along by pressing play on the embedded music player at the top of the article as you read.

if you ever feel like creatively expressing yourself by writing something stupid, fun, and/or diary-like akin to this (and upcoming pieces), i will read it and talk to you about it and offer to help you with it

you could write about any piece of art/media that you have big thoughts about, and if i like it, i will proudly host it on this blog and give you a "creators" page. doesn't need to be anything big or ambitious, i just find this fun

also the next review will be up this week. a "review" of "last chance to see" by salvia palth. it's something i wrote last year

you can contribute to null.skin (known also as: nullwave.org)!

write about any piece of media that you feel as though you have a unique or compelling perspective on, or a "point" to make regarding, and send it our way via email ([email protected]) or via tumblr/discord direct message - we just might love it enough to proudly host you ^^

the tone of your piece is completely up to you. maybe it could be a rambling mess of a "review" about an obscure indie game you want others to know about, like our first piece:

THE PASSION OF PATH OF ACHRA

LIKE RETURNING TO SCHOOL FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FIVE YEARS

maybe it could be a heartfelt personal anecdote about a musician that put out their first album since you were a teenager, like our second piece:

re: this isn't melanchole

'last chance to see' is not an album that wants to be fifteen again.

maybe it could be a experimental, creative therapy session of an exercise in talking about all your dark feelings surrounding a particular game, like our most recent piece:

RULES FOR PORNSICK DOVAHKIIN

Do not reflect on your actions for even one second until you are done.

this most recent piece was not written by Yours Truly - it was written by someone else who we assisted in editing & directing throughout the process whenever they needed help. that could be you too!

this website has been a zero-money passion project we first started working on back in 2023

this website is the bedrock for just about everything we do nowadays - and we want to keep pushing it as a creative outlet. we also want to share the ability for others to express themselves in similar ways

we've gotten a lot of messages from people saying we've inspired them to do this, a couple asking to be published on null.skin.

we will not host everything sent our way, as this website is our baby that we want to curate. currently, though, we are already working on another piece written by someone who reached out via tumblr asks & joined our discord server. it's going to be our longest piece yet: the tale of a queer teenager that joined the military after playing MW2. i have been heavily involved in the editing process

another piece written by Yours Truly is coming soon - an interview/review regarding an obscure indie game, just like our first piece.

don't be afraid to reach out! even if we don't end up publishing something together, we'd love to hear from you and read whatever you've written, or hear about what you'd like to write.
