as someone from the middle of nowhere tx, it’s weird how some people glorify southern gothic. it’s religious trauma, generational trauma, lack of resources and poverty.. all overlaid by swamp. yall want that poverty chic without the poverty lol

oh yeah i feel like every 10-15 years it becomes a trendy aesthetic again. like lana del rey was really pushing the whole troubled southern gothic heroine thing early in her career like 2013 era and yeah i can see how it’s kinda offensive
