#16, 20, 39?

16. If you had to get a tattoo right now, what would it be and where?

"Lock us up safe

And hide the key

But the night tears us loose

And in the half light

We're free" from Half Light I by Arcade Fire.

Not sure where. I actually have no tattoos yet but a lot planned so I'd have to find room for them.

20. describe your blog in 3-5 words

Neurotic cries into the void.

39. Describe your aesthetic

Frayed denim, dark sunglasses, 80s synthwave, German Expressionist cinema, museums, the last leaf in autumn, corrupted videos, flickering candlelight, black and white prints.
