Kurt Donald Cobain // m. 5 April 1994 // by Les Guzman
"Spin magazine contacted us with an assignment to photograph Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love. The shoot would take place in their Los Angeles home and would include their newborn daughter Frances Bean. We can't recall having any conversations with Spin prior to the shoot but, recognizing the intense scrutiny that had been swirling about them at that time, we knew we would be photographing them not so much as two famous musicians but as a family." - Les Guzman // 5 April 2024

My dad did NOT wear flannel and jeans, bleach his hair while his friends make fun of him only to copy him, have a collection of grunge cds, see bands like the butthole surfers, have one of his brothers see Nirvana and most of all successfully navigate and overcome poverty and reject consumerism just for y’all to wear incredibly watered down and overly polished outfits from fast fashion brands that you call “soft grunge”, “fairy grunge”, or even more embarrassing “grunge goth”
Like bruh, the commercialization of alternative subcultures is just cringe.

Astro observations
people talk about air moons being detached , aloof and all that when it’s actually earth moon that’s are way worse at showing the cars or they have weird ways of dealing with their mental state
I will always stand by Geminis idc , they are not ‘fake’ they match energy so if your vibes is off they’ll blend in with that energy and mirror you and plus maybe don’t be so boring🥰
Scorpio moons/taurus/pisces moons + risings can be into dark/grunge aesthetics and styles
cancer suns are really possessive over what’s theirs no jokes like they’ll threaten you for no reason
4H/cancer mercury people can be really sensual , nursing and supportive with their worth if they have air also in their chair they may lie a lot
scorpio risings have this special effect about them that I just can’t believe, their style is impeccable and especially when they have piercings👩🍳😘
Capricorn/10H mars are very pragmatist when achieving their goals and how they reach it and can be a little bit of a perfectionist, too be honest it gives that “NEVER BACK DOWN , NEVER WHAT??” energy lmaoo✨
sagittarius/9H mars can be enthusiastic and energetic about their work/goals bonus points if they have libra placements too (can a sag have libra placements too??)
any fire sign especially aries/leo are the most cocky ones besides sagittarius
people with gemini/sagittarius in their chart are very scatterbrained/chaotic when at work overall they have a million unfinished projects and tasks they need to do and catch up and can eventually become snappy if too overwhelmed my art teacher has this placement lolll
libra/aries placements can be people pleaser and allow people too walk over them easily
scorpio and aquarius/pisces/taurus can be very into occult things like astrology/tarot🔮🪬🩻🧿
libra 12H people can have turbulent relationships
people with Scorpio and virgo in the big 6 calls for very much overthinking and be a detective
2H/taurus venus are very indulgent with their money and will spend it on their lover just like libra will they both value beauty,aesthetics, and being comfortable with the people they love the most plus quality time is THEIR LOVE LANGUAGE OR CAN BE😁
mutable moons/mercury are very unpredictable they like they’ll do something for a certain period of time but than one day they’ll do something completely different
libra 5th could be very talented and expressive through painting,makeup and cosmetics etc.

♢ pisces moon, venus, or mars tend to bring up assumptions they’ve had, as facts when they’re upset. like for example, if they have had the hunch that you’ve been doing something sneaky, in an argument they’re going to tell you how your a sneaky person even if that’s not true at all
♢ similar to what i said about pisces, aries sun, moon, venus, or mars can also bring up assumptions as facts. aries are impatient, witty, and often jump to conclusions because of their impulsive nature. they can also get extremely hostile extremely fast, mainly if it’s in mars or sun
♢ ascendant, sun, or venus aspecting pluto can mean you change your style often. like this week you may be hippie vibes and next week your could be grunge lol

♢ mercury in the 10th house, or 10th degree can mean this person has a hard time explaining things or talking in general. they may stutter, slur their words, have a lisp, or thick accent
♢ lilith aspecting your moon can mean your dark side comes from within your emotions. your emotions can become destructive and ugly. they can also lead you into doing bad things that you’ll regret later on. you act on your emotional urges
♢ jupiter opposite, square, or conjunct mars can mean your anger is explosive, bold, and obvious. they could be the type to scream and throw things if they’re angry enough and it’s hard to calm them down

♢ capricorn in the 2nd house can mean this individual is extremely money driven. this person could want to live the rich luxury lifestyle and care about their possession and materialistic side of things. they definitely do not play around about their values, and their coworkers could admire them for their work ethic
♢ where libra is in your chart can mean that’s where you need to focus on balance in your life
ex: libra in moon can mean you need to balance your emotions
libra in sun can mean you need to balance your ego or your self expression
♢ mercury in 9th house can make a great modern day philosopher. this person could do speeches or books on these topics as well. they could also go traveling and spreading their word too, or speak on a platform with a large audience
♢virgo/gemini risings are probably often told that they are baby faced because they are! they will always look younger than their actual age. mercury aspecting rising can enhance this feature
♢leo chiron can mean that you need to heal your ego. you need to find your self expression, or remember what parts of yourself are truly you. you struggle with your identity , and you need to find yourself again

♢sedna(90377) aspecting sun can mean that your rejection to growth and change, can cause you do not find your identity and who you are. it can also mean that there are parts of yourself that you refuse to look into because your scared of what you might see and remember
♢sedna(90377) in aquarius can mean you rebel quite extremely. you could’ve done really destructive things that could’ve lead to you having more wounds that you need to heal. you could’ve had trauma on the internet or from a group of people. when you needed a certain community, they weren’t there, or if you vented/ ranted on social media, your community did not support you
♢fire sign in cupido(763) can mean you have crushes that come and go pretty fast. one week your into this person, the next week your into that person 😭
♢mars square, opposite, or conjunct mercury can mean that when your mad, you say the harshest things you can think of. it’s also their completely impulsive or something you’ve been thinking of for a long time

Ik this isn't about whether or not something is actually Jewish but I've been curious about this for over a year. I'd heard a few times on the internet that goblins are based on antisemitic imagery and that it's one of the big controversies/criticisms of goblincore. I personally enjoy goblincore: collecting rocks and snail shells, cozy and simple clothes, and enjoying anything that's shiny, whether or not it has monetary value; and when I draw my goblins I avoid things I know are common parts of antisemitic imagery, like the dramatically hooked noses and such, but I also want to draw more diverse noses so I'm not always drawing button noses. Ik this is probably a silly ask and I'm sorry if it's dumb I just want to know...here is one of my goblin drawings as an example of what I draw...
It’s not a dumb ask at all, and we welcome silly asks (though this isn’t that either).
So, goblins are very old European mythological creatures. And with most old European mythologies, they've gotten tangled up in some pretty antisemitic imagery. While no one has ever outright said "this goblin represents Jews" in fairytales, for anyone with an understanding of antisemitic imagery, the parallels and underlying messages are evident. Jews have for a long time been portrayed as having shorter statues, speaking in strange languages, and having grotesque facial features. Jews have been portrayed as living at the margins of society and engaging in amoral behaviour such as outright thievery or hoarding wealth. Sound familiar? Now, goblin-core as I understand it seeks to emulate popular features of goblins, such as dressing more 'grunge' and collecting shiny trinkets and generally not aligning with mainstream societal norms. Goblin-core in its origins is merely a niche countercultural aesthetic, and I believe most people do not engage in it maliciously. However, it becomes problematic when the goblin-core aesthetic readily embraces artwork and images with antisemitic undertones, and when the people who identify with the aesthetic try to shut down Jews when we voice our discomfort with certain aspects of it. As an alternate term, some prefer “corvid-core,” as it has the same nesting and shiny-collection vibe without the history.
Verdict: It's not inherently antisemitic, but just like cottagecore isn't inherently white supremacist, you've got to tread carefully in the space and check yourself.
