The Faeral Magpie

Corvidcore, fairycore, mermaidcore, mooncore, adventurecore, glamourpunk, solar/lunarpunk, and general shiny goodness.

[thevastnessof]

did anybody else have a moment as a kid/teen where you suddenly realized that you were more than likely never going to have one of those big adventures that you read abt in YA novels. and u were going to just have a normal life with normal problems, and got real sad. and even tho u now see value in a regular life, part of you still wants magic powers and a rag tag group of ride-or-die friends who are out to save the world

[degenerate-perturbation]

Like yes but also you can simulate the big adventure to some extent. Get some friends and a van and go and try to survive in the wilderness for a month.

stg im abt to just start blocking any n all goyim w goblin in their url or who call themselves goblins to b like cute n quirky or whatever lmao

[painhaver]

actually u know what im tired of this needing to b said over n over im done lol

if yr a goy [that is, not jewish] u need to stop using goblins as an aesthetic, as a quirky jokey derogatory phrase for yrself, etc. u need to acknowledge that goblins r an antisemetic caricature, that's their origin n that's what they still represent today. jews have been saying this for years n im fucking tired of goyim ignoring us. just cuz it seems inconsequential to u doesnt mean it is for us n just cuz yr one jewish friend said it was ok doesnt mean they speak for all of us

u wanna keep ur goblincore aesthetic? do the bare fucking minimum n call it corvidcore instead. i see u goyim w yr "goblincore" blogs where u post pics of gold coins n jewish caricatures of greedy creatures w green skin n hooked noses. yr calling yrself a "goblin" cuz yr messy or whatever? get into the grunge aesthetic, bring that back n embrace that instead

goyim stop using goblins to describe yrself, yr aesthetics, any part of yr identity, PERIOD. im fucking sick of it lol

goyim can rb but dont try to start shit

[scallioncreamcheesebagel]

(context for the following, i am also jewish)

goblins actually do not have an antisemitic origin. this article gives a good explanation: goblins in folklore were never associated with jewish people in the vast majority of mythology (apart from cornish mythology), but the popularization of modern fantasy that uses antisemitic caricatures in the depiction of goblins (such as d&d and harry potter) has made an antisemitic depiction of goblins popular.

as long as goblins are not portrayed in an antisemitic way (hooked nose, green skin, greedy/bankers/money-hungry, etc) there isn't really anything antisemitic about them inherently. for example, here is a goblin in little witch academia:

there is nothing about this depiction that is antisemitic. as long as goyim don't use antisemitic depictions, i don't see anything wrong with using goblins or the word goblin.

however, if you ARE looking to have an aesthetic around hoarding gold coins or whatever, please don't use "goblin" to describe that, as that is antisemitic.

FUCKIN THIS

[skeletonsintheforest]

Why is fairycore all about flowers and dresses and beauty? Where is the bragging about tricks we play on foolish mortals? The twisting of our words cause we never really lie? Why is everything about faries on here so soft and innocent? I want some sneaky fairy friends like me!

[ancientstudy]

For your consideration: Dark Academia Goblincore

Wearing oversized trenchcoats and keeping stones, shinies, leafs, and bottle caps in the large pockets

Reading about fungi while sitting on a log

Running through the forest with your friends in bare feet, stopping by a creek to recite poetry and eat honeysuckles

Using interesting rocks you've found as paperweights

"You know, I'm not sure if that's a stain from dirt or my sepia ink."

Letting a snail crawl across your hand as you read in your backyard. You name it something pretentious, or after a dead poet

Documenting in a field journal the progress of a decomposing tree or animal with illustrations and small notes about larvae or bark coloration.

Creating your own Dead Poets Society, decorating the hideout with strange trinkets you found in the woods or at Goodwill on half price day.

Putting some sort of mud or onion grass in whiskey, daring your friend to drink it after declaring it a "potion."

Shouting your favorite memorized poem from the top of a tree or waterfall (Sounding your barbaric YAWP...literally).

Listening to Hozier in a bog at night.

Coming into class with small twigs still in your hair from the evening before.

"Is this mushroom poisonous?"

"I mean you might swell up or vomit or something."

"... probably tastes good though."

Hair so wild and frizzy it must be pulled back at all times or else you look like a bog witch.

[frogsandfarming]

Things goblincore/adventurecore people did as children

Pretend to find objects from your house in your backyard and convincing yourself they give you powers

Building forts/hide aways in tall bushes

Leaving your friends to sit alone because you had to just sit a stew about the adventures you’re going to have that day

Try to eat dirt, pretending to like it

Imagining that inanimate objects were trying to talk to you

Seeing “the beast” run next to your car through the trees on a road trip

HOARDER

Stared at hands trying to convince people you had powers/freak them out

[mouldy-strawberries-deactivated]

ooh yes, when i went to the beach as a kid i would make stews out of sea rocks and salty ocean water and pretent i was a sea god

i think that’s pretty gremlin of me

[ofdirtandbones]

It really is ! I used to make something I called « gloubinoulga » by digging in the sand until I reached water and making a soup out of it

Also the usual potions with plants and other things I found

[sentientpolymorphicrocks]

go for it bro

[arrowthroughanace]

please

[wickedcriminal]

Lmao do it

[sleepycrows]

you see, the purple under my eyes is not from lack of sleep. it’s a gift from the mothman and the fae for praising the moon while awake at 3am, to make me recognized as a cryptid watcher. do not get these confused.

[insomniac-arrest]

what is it about fungi that’s so mythical and freaky and set in humanities heads as “fable and Other Folk” fodder

the lore

the vibes

the spooky feeling in the Ghosts and Aliens Section of my brain that goes off

like, look at this and tell me that magic isn’t real and doesn’t want to strip us bare and use our souls as bartering chips in cosmic games of poker

[insomniac-arrest]

mushrooms are an ancient force of growth and decay, life and rot, collapse and creation; they have been here long before us and will remain long after we’re gone- devouring that which kills us and creating that which forgets us.

it is best you tread carefully.

[hyperactivehedgehog]

I’m studying biotech and every time someone brings up mushrooms our current professor will look either extremely exited or pained and go “listen.. mushrooms are neither plants nor animals nor something in between. They elude all attempts to categorize them. We do not know what they are. Some are immortal. Some produce live saving substances. Some are so closely related to humans that eating them may cause an allergic reaction against your own body. I cannot teach you about the mushrooms”

[corpsefaking-moved]

this is vital and important information

Truth has been spoken

[adventuremap]

spent most of my time today thinking about futuristic adventurecore, and how cool of a concept that would be

-exploring entire planets and derelict cities

-charting and identifiying alien wildlife in a cool notepad

-wearing high tech cloaks such as heat-resistant or waterproof, or can change to be a parasol

-cool alien pets!!!!

[thesilverthreadsmith]

This is exactly what I’m working on in a set of stories; there’s a wonder and joy in pure adventure that’s just lacking in a lot of the new dystopia and sci-fi, it feels. 

[adventuremap]

oh wow! that seems really interesting, could you give more detail or is it all secretive?
