What a wonderful piece of serendipity, Maria. Goth-lets need to be reminded that you can't always tell cool from the outside.
I've been sending job~ma westward steadily, Jilli.
I am not having sex with Spike! But I'm starting to think that you might be.

No shit, right? Yes, I'm sorry, I am wearing business casual. I still deserve some customer service when I'm trying to pick which studded belt and fishnet dress to buy, okay, chica?

Yeah, Jilli, in some column somewhere, there should be a mention of those goth-on-the-inside people, and the friends-of-goths and you know, the way the wee goths need to respect us when we go into the local Torrid or Hot Topic for shoes or hair dye, or gifts for the goths we love, and not look at me like I'm a Tool Of The Man.

Have I not written about that yet? Good heavens, I don't think I have. You're right, I need to do a column about that.

Jilli, Amy Sherman-Palladino from GG is totally poaching your look. The funny part is, it was my mom who spotted it first.

You totally do. I'm stealth!goth for as long as I'm NIP, on account of not a lot of gothable nursingwear.
My gothdom is, literally, stuck in the closet. (I can see it from here. So pretty. So gothy. So not fitting me yet.)

This reminds me, one of UnkaJeff's friends is a lactation consultant, and she found a seller on eBay who is making (in Jeff's words) "DIY gothpunk nursing clothes". I'll get the link from him.

Wha? GG stands for Gilmore Girls, right? I'm clueless when it comes to current TV. Now I must Google.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Keen. I wonder if it's ShadowFae clothing she's thinking of, because they do make a gothabilly sundress for nursing, but it's kinda pricy.
ION, I just looked at a picture of Flea from 1974, and had to look hard at the date to realize that she hadn't just mislabled a picture of Casper.
Freaky. Dude, I've seen identical twins who look less alike than those two.

Nope, it's someone who is apparently buying separates at thrift stores and being very clever with a serger.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
There's this weird teenage, "ACCEPT ME FOR WHO I AM!!!" mentality that doesn't seem to accept anyone else for who they are. It's not just about the wee goth kids, either. But if you're going to embrace a subculture that is steeped in a tradition of you know, a sense of social decorum and grace, it doesn't only apply to people dressed like you, wee goth babes.
