About
I'm a 32 year old woman. I'm an artist, and I'm into the Gothic subculture. Things that I enjoy include but are not limited to 80's Music, Reading, Drawing, Animation, Playing bass guitar, Gothic rock, indie music, horror films, anime, comics, video games, and sci-fi novels. I don't know what I'd do without music, and art. I listen to Siouxsie and the Banshees way more than I should.

Assuming everything is goth cause it's black, or dark, or whatever is doing the subculture a great disservice if you ask me. As for the Beyonce video I did get a Southern Gothic vibe from the whole thing, but the person on facebook clearly said "Gothic" so I assumed they were talking about the goth subculture. Either way I do hate how people wear the fashion just to be trendy, and don't know much about the subculture at all. Many goths put a lot of time into their outfits so to just tag anything as goth just cause it's black is pretty lame. I think the mainstream culture has a skewed version on what the subculture is actually about. Unfortunately I don't think that will change anytime soon.
You're not missing much in terms of the newer X-Men movies, but I'm looking forward to the new one. I was slightly disappointed with X-Men: Days of the Future Past so I'm hoping this one will be better.
I haven't been to A-Kon in a couple of years, but it was really fun when I went. They have a lot of interesting new panels that I want to check out if I go.
