Hey,
I'm visiting Windsor tomorrow, and it seems that my friend (who I was originally going to meet) is a no-show. I can DM you details. I've really just been looking to make friends in person, since online can be shitty sometimes.

🕯️ Aesthetic Origins
The black-heavy style traces back to early gothic rock bands in the late 1970s and early 80s....
