mecore

i kind of decided to make this as an additional, more personal, abstract and gut feeling based source of information on me, the aesthetics i like and things i associate myself with. i was somewhat inspired by someone close to me doing a similar thing on her site. i divided them into three categories - what i "identify with", what i relate to use to express myself with, and what is close to my aesthetics and the things i relate to and has a big overlap with these, but isn't "quite that", or is only "that" sometimes, in specific cases. enjoy.

level 1: core me (define me a lot)

  • cats, black cats especially
  • vampires, not quite otherkin but almost there
  • mischevous/malicious deal-making folklore creatures
  • certain particular kinds of futuristic mad science
  • vague, ominous signs and warnings
  • anime catgirls
  • hearts
  • classic aristocratic vibes
  • red fruit, particularly cherries and strawberries
  • stars, starry skies, galaxies and everything star-patterned
  • dark themes in classical art
  • vintage photographs of cats, especially with cheeky expressions
  • absurd, confusing and disturbing newspaper headlines
  • ironic pessimism and nihilism

    • level 2: vaguely me (i identify with or use to express myself)
