pinkboi@thecave.social
People on bluesky - follow @ap.brid.gy if you want me to be able to follow you back. :magus: I'm just a silly weirdo with way too many hobbies. I make [creepy music](https://handfetishrecords.com/) and do some [photography](https://nonbinaryanalog.com). Stop me if you've heard this one before, but as a teenager, music :vinyl: and gothy fashion :black_nails: saved me. I now realize from seeing how my older kid dresses that my then "perkygoth" fashion is very similar to today's neo-scene fashion (but also overlaps with today's "pastel goth" :sparkle_goth:). Admin of the two goth fediverse instances [The Cave](https://thecave.social) (Sharkey) and [Vampire Geeks](https://vampiregeeks.com) (Pixelfed). Consider joining! A few of the bands I like: COIL, Current 93, The Cure, Bedroom Witch, Christian Death, Oingo Boingo, Gossamer, Aranmaybe, Lav Andula, Youth Code, Leæther Strip, She Past Away, SOPHIE, Male Tears, Glass Spells, HEALTH, Digital Love, Kontravoid, Romeo Void, Joy Division, Talking Heads, CAPSULE, Perfume Random shit about me: $[fg.color=ffddef :pink_knife: I grew up in a small town in the mountains. This tends to make people $[jelly weird]. But it also came with a lot of appreciation for nature! 🌲 :pink_knife: I'm genderqueer 🏳️⚧️ but I often just look like a man, whatever :pink_knife: I sometimes do a food booth where I serve panella, the Sicilian equivalent of falafel, among other vegan street foods]
