(Felt like I should do one of these cringey blog intros lolll)

Hi, I'm Drew, I'm 19 (just turned 😛), and I thought I should probably do one of these after posting into the void since I was like 14.

I like music a lot, it's pretty much my entire personality.

Music I like: Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, The Smiths, Hole, Nirvana, The Clash, Sex Pistols, The Cure, Derek and The Dominos, Blondie, Pretenders, Guns N' Roses (my blog's namesake, I thought it was creative hehe), The Damned, The Slits, X-Ray Spex, L7, Bikini Kill, Le Tigre, Sonic Youth, The Runaways, The Adverts, Ramones, Garbage, Led Zeppelin, Veruca Salt, Jack Off Jill, Siouxsie and The Banshees, and loads more I forgot </3

I like movies and shows a lot too! If I'm not talking about music, I'm probably talking about media of that sort.

My favourite movies/shows are: Twin Peaks (1990), Fire Walk With Me (1992), Longford (2006), A Complete Unknown (2024), Firebrand (2023), Nosferatu (2024), Little Women (2019), See No Evil (2006), Pistol (2022), Almost Famous (2001), Goodfellas (1990), The Haunting of Hill House (2018), Buffalo '66 (1998), and probably loads more here too

I'm queer and autistic, so I sometimes post about that but not always, hehe

I'm also very interested in the girlfriends/wives/groupies of famous rockstars/bands, usually from the 60s into the 90s. Not a negative word shall be said about them here, or I will genuinely throw hands <3

Im in university and studying Sociology and English! I am also interested in history as a hobby, but I hated it academically 💔 I have various special interests in history, and particular women from the past, be they good or evil lmao.

I really enjoy writing shitty poetry, and I sometimes share it here too

MEANWHILE, whenever the same thing happens with a case involving a woman killer, she is always depicted as conventionally ugly (even if she literally didn't look like that lmao), and her crimes were not so shocking because she just "looks evil" as if that's even a thing. It's not her crimes that are judged so much as her looks and attractivness, which is fucking weird. She is "the face of evil," while men who have done the same irredeemable things are not seen as so remarkable. It's almost like violence and dominance to a certain degree are seen as normal for men, while the same behaviour is not so accepted in women, who are expected to be docile and submissive. Being beautiful and attractive to men is one of the most important roles of women under patriarchy, so when a woman does something horrible and violent that may be more commonly expected of a man, her physical appearance is undermined alongside her crimes to annunciate how abnormal her actions were. She doesn't look or sound normal, and she never was because she's killed people and we should know that solely based off of her appearance. But that literally never happens to a man who has done the same things or worse.

Have you guys ever noticed that? Because I have, I've done a lot of noticing that.
