#gritcore
it's aetherpunk. it's dark cyber post-gritcore. it's a gorbino's-like CRPG with 90s FMV point-and-click adventure elements. it's just like all these other things
This is the kind of thing I’m talking about, a million buzzwords and overly categorized aesthetics all at once.

what is "gritcore?"

it's music that doesnt act like things are ok

and it doesnt let you off the hook anyway

so that you cah hold on

until the bastards stop stealing the parts of life we're all missing.

A: There’s no magic. No secret formula.
I just keep going.
And when it feels like pure quicksand—
I still keep going.
There’s no reason. No excuse.
Not to.

Heh, you just compared Manhunt to Dark Souls and that is awesome.

I really should retry it again sometime. It's kinda the culmination of all the hyper edgy late 90s gritcore and by that standard I should dig it. The core concept is so good.

this skeet reminded me to convince nightsky to bump some new rap music i wrote

songs about accelerationism, tyranny, conspiracy mind, covid angst, the violence of cops both in and outside our heads, and the need to hold on to hope no matter what

But right now, I can’t imagine myself without one.
It’s ritual. It’s armor.
It’s the thing I grab when everything else slips.

One second I blinked—
And there it was: a blade, buried in my finger.
I honestly don’t remember how.
But the scar never lets me forget.

How I refuse to play “nice” when I don’t feel it — even if that’s what’s expected.
⠀
Society likes soft women.
But I’m sharp.
And real.

Lately, my motto has been: “I’m not made of sugar.”
I drill this thought into my head daily—probably the only reason I’m still off antidepressants.
Apologies to myself for skipping a day.
I’m not made of sugar.
I move on.

A: My flexibility.
When something doesn’t sit right with me, I turn into mold: I follow the system—quietly, slowly, but I break it from within.

Why the hell am I so obsessed with how cars are built?

Second day wrestling with the radiator.
So far: 2:0 — radiator's winning.
I still can't detach the damn thing.

But Dio mio, it’s beautiful in there.
