Are you fed-up with garbage, full-of-shit sites where nobody actually communicates, such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Twitter? Do you wish your old friends who've migrated to those sites would return to LiveJournal? The the_lj_revival community has been set up with that aim in mind, and you are invited to join it. If you are already on LiveJournal and still have a Facebook profile, and would like to see more people returning to LJ or setting up accounts here, we invite you to post a link to this community on your Facebook Timeline. If you would like to find out who is still using LiveJournal and make contact with those who are already here, you are invited to copy and paste the 'about me' questions on the profile page and post them with your answers to the community.

Explore the dark side with Absent Cause

Underground cultures, hidden histories, feminist and queer sexualities, size-acceptance, chosen families and radical politics; vampirism, the gothic, horror and the macabre; surviving abuse, coping with mental illness/dangerous gifts, self-harm and suicide.

 

Everybody dies. But in our underground and radical communities we often have very different ways of coping with death than the dominant culture.

 

What does the prospect of death mean to someone who’s lived through violent abuse? Discrimination? Mental illness?

 

How does a revolutionary or artist contemplate what their contribution may mean after their death?

 

How do we express our fears, celebration, anger, and/or desire for death? Can death be sexy?

 

Order from http://redguard.etsy.com

 

Random Idea:

proposal: FEBRUARY as NATIONAL WOMEN IN HORROR Month because sometimes it has 28 days. Can we make this official somehow? PASS IT ON!

Women Deserve This RECOGNITION!!
