Black Canary "Back Ally Shift" Two years ago, I took advantage of this awesome back alley to make this crossplay as Black Canary happen. The LED lighting was perfect in assisting me with the right lighting in the right place, where I could create a scene similar to Batman and Green Arrow comic books, along with some fan artwork I drew from. The city of Camdenton is great for anyone who wants to do cosplays and goths without going to the big cities. Sometimes, the good old small towns tend to have what you need and want to make your day that much better. That July night was definitely one of them.

Goth is becoming more popular than it has ever been. Take for example The Cure cover "The Perfect Girl" that has by total over billion streams. Of course a lot of it has to do with universal feeling of melancholy, spread through TikTok. Just noticed that even TWIX uses Belarusian postpunk song that quotes Russian poet's words about institutionalized life, where death feels more cozy than life - but there's a desperate longing to face life directly, to cry, and to keep living rather than disappear. Btw, this Twix commercial got banned in Britain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7lBA5aX-iI While TikTok follows trends - and I'm quite surprised to see something as underground as Radio Werewolf being played by teenagers & young adults - there's also people like a clothing market in St. Petersburg (Russia), named Kissa Market (Kissa means Cat in Finnish) that isn't just a company but a whole philosophy and a collective answer to life's struggles. These photos market their own brand of clothing, and their shop in the "ruins of empires".

Here's my compilation: "What is Goth (Video Album)" I recommend to watch it when you have the time to let it carry you and reveal what it has to give, like playing an unknown album from a library. https://youtu.be/A5LBLhRAew8?si=kSpsfreCwOrnY-sv

Hippies oppose war and consumerism. Punks question authority and often are anarchist/anti-capitalist (although punks vary more, as some are on the Left and some are on the Right). How would you guys define the Goth subculture nowadays?

As you know, most of you goths give me the heebie jeebies. Keeping it real here, I'm willing to meet you halfway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-ahNXvCvyA

I find it hilarious that someone on this site is asking for help to develop a new "goth" site when what they developed is needing access to someone's backend and likes their own post. Do not trust that individual.
