𝕬𝖇𝖔𝖚𝖙 𝕸𝖊:

Call me Sarah or call me Moss. I'm a 28yo trans woman (she/they) from the US Great Lakes region. I'm a professional writer, but probably not in the way you're thinking.

I enjoy learning about people, so if you're even slightly interesting I might follow you. I love DMs (so reach out!) but please don't be offended if I'm not a great texter.

𝕸𝖚𝖘𝖎𝖈 𝖎𝖓𝖙𝖊𝖗𝖊𝖘𝖙𝖘: Deathrock, darkwave, shoegazing, doom metal, and black metal. I love cassette tapes, loud shows, and feeling the rhythm in my chest. Fuck streaming, support your tiny artists.

𝕱𝖆𝖛𝖊 𝕭𝖆𝖓𝖉𝖘: | 𝕲𝖔𝖙𝖍 𝖇𝖆𝖓𝖉𝖘: The Sisters of Mercy, Horror Vacui, Kisses for Lenore, The Birthday Massacre, Unto Others | 𝕯𝖔𝖔𝖒/𝕾𝖑𝖚𝖉𝖌𝖊 𝕸𝖊𝖙𝖆𝖑: Woods of Ypres, Acid Bath, Faetooth, Chained to the Bottom of the Ocean | 𝕭𝖑𝖆𝖈𝖐/𝕭𝖑𝖆𝖈𝖐𝖊𝖓𝖊𝖉 𝕸𝖊𝖙𝖆𝖑: Mayhem, Feminazgul, Hulder, Alcest, Amesoeurs | 𝕾𝖍𝖔𝖊𝖌𝖆𝖟𝖎𝖓𝖌 𝕽𝖔𝖈𝖐: Greet Death, Slowdive, Cocteau Twins |

𝕳𝖔𝖇𝖇𝖎𝖊𝖘: I like DIYing, thrifting, and sometimes writing if I have the energy. I like the tactile feel of old technology — the hum of a CRT, the hiss of a tape. I know how to fix a lot of shit. I like walks in the forest.

𝕯𝕹𝕴: If you're a shithead in any way, I block pretty liberally.

𝕿𝖂 𝖂𝖆𝖗𝖓𝖎𝖓𝖌𝖘: I don't tag these much (or in general), but I also deliberately avoid reblogging excessively disturbing things here. That said, I swear a lot, talk about sex, might reblog some mildly graphic things, and definitely will post some edgy music.

Cringe doesn't exist — be earnest in all things. I love you.

𝕸𝖞 𝖘𝖎𝖉𝖊 𝖇𝖑𝖔𝖌𝖘:

@ragged-edges is my DIY blog. It's all original content, a mix of sewing, dyeing, and other stuff. I post a lot of updates to my jackets. Sometimes I fix electronics.

@et-novum is my catch-all dark alternative / aesthetic reblog blog (gothic, metal, dark, spooky, fashion, art, etc). It used to be tagged but now it's just a mess. I'm not sorry.

@[redacted] is my venting sideblog that isn't for public consumption.

𝕺𝖙𝖍𝖊𝖗 𝖘𝖙𝖚𝖋𝖋:

I have a basic website at https://cryptcrap.com. There's not really a point to it. It has a fun random quote at the top, though.

You can browse part of my tape collection on Discogs. I have a lot more, these are just the ones I wanted to track.

I also have a goth-adjacent community discord server! If you like me, my posts, or my nonsense and want (god forbid) more, come and hang out with us. Mutuals preferred I suppose, but as long as you're not an asshole I don't mind.

Check out the The Kisses for Lenore Fan Club community on Discord - hang out with 19 other members and enjoy free voice and text chat.

I'm coming to realize how vital it is to keep a running list of shit you did in the past few weeks so that you can participate in small talk. It's literally not anything to do with them being interesting at all it's just having Something to say to give people even the barest thing to hold on to. It's so you don't get into the "what have you been up to" "nothing much what about you" "yeah same" trap. Literally just say something.

What have you been up to? Um well it's getting warmer so I've been having to brush my cat every day.

Like no it's not that interesting of a thing to say. But now they can respond to it. They could say, man yeah it really is heating up, I've been trying to think of things to do inside more often. Or, oh you have a cat? What's their name?

Like. It's Something. All you need is Something. And if you're like me and your brain immediately goes blank upon entering small talk then keeping a list will help you remember things to say.

Sometimes I’m looking for something online - often “how to” articles - and I want to filter for - like - a website that was clearly built in 2010 at the latest, which may or may not have been updated since then, but contains a vast wealth of information on one topic, painstakingly organized by an unknown legend in the field with decades’ worth of experience. I don’t want a listicle with a nice stolen picture in a slideshow format written by a content aggregator that God forgot. I want hand-drawn diagrams by some genius professor who doesn’t understand SEO at all, but understands making stir-fries or raising stick insects better than anyone else on this earth. I don’t know what search settings to put into Google to get this.

[greenjudy]

thank you for articulating this cri de coeur for me

[jumpingjacktrash]

ngl these days i’m just happy when it’s not a video

search.marginalia.nu is the search engine you want!

The search engine calculates a score that aggressively favors text-heavy websites, and punishes those that have too many modern web design features.

This is in a sense the opposite of what most major search engines do, they favor modern websites over old-looking ones. Most links you find here will be nearly impossible to find on a regular search engine, as they aren’t sufficiently search engine optimized.

[ashby-santoso]

“It is a search engine, designed to help you find what you didn’t even know you were looking for. If you search for “Plato”, you might for example end up at the Canterbury Tales. Go looking for the Canterbury Tales, and you may stumble upon Neil Gaiman’s blog.

If you are looking for fact, this is almost certainly the wrong tool. If you are looking for serendipity, you’re on the right track. When was the last time you just stumbled onto something interesting, by the way?

I don’t expect this will be the next “big” search engine. This is and will remain a niche tool for a niche audience.“

i clicked around for a few minutes searching various things and I now have two fourteenth century pie crust recipes and an apple filling recipe i want to try, so thanks!

[ms-demeanor]

it has been twenty minutes and I am deeply in love with this search engine.

INCREDIBLE. I *do* want to know how to test Windows 95 for Y2K Compliance and I am glad that someone is still hosting step by step instructions for that.

[workfornow]

tl;dr: search.marginalia.nu for the old or old looking and just plain serendipitous stuff that google or Duck duck go are gonna not find/bury on the 20th page. For perfectly good reasons, but …

[existentialterror]

My absolute favorite part of having made this post - other than causing people to be introduced to this site - are the people in the tags/comments talking about their interests and stuff they found about their hobbies.

Good luck out there surfing the cyberweb, you crazy cats. I love the shoelace website too - Ian’s Shoelace Site [link], unless there’s another. My personal favorite old-school site is Alysion’s string figure collection [link].

[eroscestlavie]

Curious about this after some of the notes I got on another post.

Would you consider yourself an ambitious person?

Yes, definitely

I’m sometimes competitive or yearn for more, but “ambitious” doesn’t describe me

No, this isn’t me at all

she's autistic, she works in a pet store for minimum wage, she's on five different medications, she's weird, she's a loser, she will knock your teeth out if you look at her wrong, she puts stickers on everything, she has a parasocial relationship with some no-good punk whose music she's obsessed with, she's a virgin, her masturbatory habits would make her white middle class family keel over in shock, she still lives with her parents, she has no plan for the future, she sings the songs she hears in her head, she's watching a dead cat, she's shit at basketball, she's my queen I hope she never changes

[sexybritishllama]

one of the most frustrating things about getting a job is that after you go through the absolute hellscape that is applying and interviewing and you finally prove yourself worthy of having employment, you'll end up in the workforce and realise that 90% of the people with jobs are not actually very good at them. so like why was all of that even so hard

[sivavakkiyar]

you know back then they didn’t use to romanticize the past

[theglasscat]

Fantasy scholars will be like "I know a spot" and the spot in question is that dark ivy draped behemoth, the spires and towers of the castle Gormenghast, withdrawn and ruinous it broods in umbra: the immemorial masonry: the towers the tracts.
