You can call me Starrie, I'm in my 20s. These are a few things about me you may like to know:
  • I love tea and I drink a lot of it. You will find plenty of tea related things across this site. I just think It's swell.
  • I gather a lot of different hobbies, but my favorites are playing guitar/making music, journalling, reading and baking.
  • I'm 100 years old and I live in a Shoe and my best friend's name is Richard.
  • My madness is my freedom; all my geese are swans & I'm glad for it.

Beloved assorted things:
  • Silent films
  • Night
  • Ambient music (or on the other spectrum, music of erratic madness)
  • Dim warm lighting
  • Live music
  • Forests & moss
  • Edwardian period and onward until the 1940s
  • Demons, mythical creatures, and other beasts
  • Old english & linguistics
  • Poetry
  • Magpies and songbirds
  • Black currants and apples
  • Dreaming

Things I don't enjoy:
  • White fluroescent lighting, generally
  • Things that feel soulless and insipid
  • Perfect tidiness, minimalism
  • Cultural/historical amnesia
  • Conformity, "cringe-culture", adhering only to what is deemed "normal" or on trend.
