About Me

Important Facts:
I am a creator and I'm really pretty excited about life.
I like music from other countries. I glue silly thing st my face. I like creepy, overweight animals. I like impractical couture. I like bloody lips, black eyes, bruised knees and badly drawn mermaids. I rarely consider people's gender, especially concerning matters of the heart. I like three-peice suits and music made by machines. I own boxsets of Cirque du Soleil, National Geographic's Taboo and John Waters movies. I believe in our dependancy on technology, we are all not so mild forms of cyborgs. I like Fluxus. I drink sugary fruit drinks that taste nothing like fruit. I am intrested in being the most complete person I can be, and never holding still. I spend a whole lot of time on wikipedia reading about alchemy. I have worlds inside of me that sometimes leak out of my fingers as drawings and out of my mouth as stories. I write more comics than I read.
I dance until it hurts and laugh until I'm sore.
I enjoy making these lists of random self-defining phrases and buzzwords. I like Japanese street wear. I like that you're reading this right now in hopes of getting some sense of the type of person I am. I will probably like you if you are sincere about whatever it is you love.
What I want more than anything is to live authentically, and to find those doing the same.
Most of my wardrobe choices are made with the question, "Is this something a time travelling steam punk space pirate would wear?" in mind.
I want to know your story.
When drinking massive amounts of wine, I do a very convincing Parker Posey.
I am mostly only attracted to people who are androgynous.
I perfer tragic, obsessive love and grand overwhelming gestures of expression.
I respond well to extremity.
I'm into romance:
"and they would say delicious, delicious, how boring."

Overture. (The Hounds of Love Are Hunting)

Oh and years they move so fast and the days are somewhere between lightning and molasses. I'm very near to being another year older and very far away from where I was. I have had a very strange path o...

Road To Somewhere

My toes tingle and I realize that the hot water of the bath and sweet crooning of Goldfrapp are a catalyst for the crisp white wine that I'm drinking. And it's now 3:49 as I write this and I'm no clos...

It Takes a Fool To Remain Sane.

Oi, Kittens. I always get a little happy when August rolls around. Not that I have a particular love of August, it's just now that I'm not in school anymore I can forgo the dread of having to return t...

Exodus.

So the great evacuation is finally at an end, and I'm safely locked in a basement where I have been working myself sick since I got back. Already I've managed to pencil several character turn-arounds,...

Keeping Things Whole.

Although I shouldn't have, I spent close to the entire day lounging around in bed and it was fucking phenomenal. I watch episodes of Death Note, wrote some delish smut and then killed one of my main c...
