Goth dancing is simple. Three steps forward, then three steps back. All you do with your upper body is pretend to brush cobwebs off of you and make sure they play Bela Lugosi's Dead and you're golden.

I was thrift store before Macklemore. Also my mother's good friend who likes to shop but only wears a tenth of what she buys and gives my mother stuff that still has tags on.

If I'm actually paying full price, Marshall's and Target.

Isn't Tinkerbell the new version of this? So much Tink merchandise on full grown women. Also, Betty Boop.

And on the depressing tip, I just listened to a podcast about the Tulsa Riot of 1921. In short, a white mob that wanted to lynch a black man accused of assaulting a white woman go ape shit and burn down the black neighborhood/suburb of Greenwood. That shit got hushed up so much that my husband was not taught about the incident in his history classes in Tulsa. Which makes the whole thing even more depressing.

Yup. I grew up (and still live) in Tulsa and did a report on it in class. Basically a dude was in an elevator with a white woman and then things went bananas. I still go down to Greenwood a lot, we've managed to hold some identity there but it's a shell of its former self.

I was reading about this the other day, after seeing a set of post cards white Tulsans made and sent around to commemorate the event. I thought about posting them here, but BCT was having a bad day and I didn't want to make it worse. The postcards are pretty fucking awful.

I heard somewhere that there had been 30 or more Rosewood type incidents. Where mobs would just destroy black communities like it was nothing

Omaha's race riots are not covered in schooling. We get to hear about the various boom/bust periods but I'm pretty sure I learned about the riots from PBS.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omaha_Race_Riot_of_1919

At one point the black community had machine guns and shit stationed along one street of Omaha to protect themselves from the other parts. The city's segregation is still evident to this day.

Random thoughts;

As a connoisseur of electronic music, I always find it 'odd' when I talk to other like-minded folk, and they have never heard of legends such as Carl Craig, Kevin Saunderson or Juan Atkins.

Not trying to be a snob. Just baffling how people never heard of these folk, who are absolute legends and pioneers in this field. I have had countless discussion with different people about techno, and they always talk about how the Germans are the kings of it and "invented it". I say this as someone who worship Basic Channel and Kraftwerk.

As you guys say;

C'mon son....

Maybe if you called them by their stage names, people might know who you were talking about. C'mon son.

Electronic musicians have 100 aliases, plus they are always known by their real names. The guys I mentioned are at least. Their names all hallmarks in this world.

C'mon son.

Apparently, they're not always known by their real names. Pick a popular one of the hundred aliases and you'll probably have better results. If you had said Cybotron or Inner City I would have known who you were talking about immediately.

Breh, I don't see aliases; only the real name.

Here, have some Carl Craig;
