i'm back :))

so the last time i used this blog was almost 2 years ago.... yikes !!! i used to write on this blog every day, so it’s very weird to be back ... and it’s doubly weird because i’m coming back with a different name and entirely different identity. i’m revamping this blog as lou, and it turns out i'm not a girl lol so. there's that..... i'm a trans masculine nonbinary person, and i use he/him pronouns!!

i could've easily started an entirely new blog but this one is my baby (i started it when i was 13!!!! aaaAAAAHH)!!! y'all are welcome to like... look at my old shit on here but i probably said some Not Great stuff but keep in mind i was like 13-16 and uneducated on loooots of stuff so don't like tear me to shreds or anything pls !!!!

i mostly decided to revamp this blog because i have A Lot to say about. lots of things and i want a place to say it in a more organized manner than i do on my tumblr. this was originally a fashion blog and i still want to talk about that tbh, but in a different way than i did before. fashion isn't necessarily high fashion/runway fashion. i actually have little to no interest in that shit anymore. it's just skinny white people wearing expensive clothing that's ugly a lot of the time and i Do Not Care!! but: for the past 2 years i had Awful body dysphoria and mostly just wore baggy clothing all the time to the point where if i told people that i used to be a fashion blogger they're like . lmao are u sure sweatie ?? which is very Yikes. but i had top surgery a little under 3 months ago, and have been on testosterone for around 1 year and 3 months (!!!!). so basically there's 2 things at play here:

1) my body is extremely different than what it was before
2) the way others perceive my gender is often directly correlated to how i dress

the second one was /never/ the case before. in a post-op, on-T body, i'm learning to navigate what this means for me and how i can be authentic to myself and my identity as best as i can!! which is actually really fuckin hard. but i process things by yelling about them so that's why the blog is back lol :)

i also just miss writing a lot? i used to write on this thing every day (tbt to the manic episode of 2012 .... y i k e s) and i was just writing really often and now i barely do? and it's a really important thing for me and my ~healing~ and that's my #1 thing. i still write fiction sometimes but . and don't grill me for this but. it's mostly fanfiction ... IT IS A GOOD AND IMPORTANT GENRE OF FICTION OKAY!!!!! maybe i will post some of mine or link to it .. i don't write anything that's nsfw!!!! because i'm ace and i don't do that shit!!

as for what i'm actually going to be writing about... i'm really only interested in fashion in a peripheral sense anymore so i'll talk about it sometimes, but this is definitely Not a fashion blog anymore.  but i wanna talk about intersectional feminism n shit!! i work at an intersectional feminist bookstore and am also on tumblr all the time so that's like. most of what i think about (except one direction and Gay Things). this is basically going to be a more refined version of my tumblr without the fear of my posts being hijacked by people trying to drag me into The Discourse(tm). i want to have conversations with people but also? this is my place for queer screaming and if u wanna scream... make ur own blog it costs $0.00 :)

also: i changed the title to something that represents me pretty well: i'm queer and i'm always screaming. that's really it. also my old blog title was a fucking awful pun ... who the fuck allowed me to use so many puns like literally @god why did you let me do that ???? W H Y

ok i'm excited to start posting again!!!!!!!!!! weee see y'all soon

  1. In the last few seasons, the counties have experimented with the use - or absence - of the heavy roller. Heavily rolled pitches tended to die and produce relatively unedifying cricket Carton Of Newport 100S, whereas the entertainment value of games where the heavy roller was outlawed increased. It was eventually concluded, however, that unrolled surfaces provided too much assistance to the bowlers and, in Test cricket, the heavy roller will continue to crush the life out of pitches Marlboro Red Cigarettes.
