say hi to Oliver! They/them!
The Vampire's Nest is a personal site for artwork, shrines, ocs, and cool stuff I salvage. The usual warnings for eyestrain and flashing images apply to all pages, in addition to warnings for blood, gore, swearing, crude humor, and suggestive themes. You can find other cool Neocities websites on the left sidebar; below that, some resources to help Palestine during the ongoing genocide. On the right sidebar you can find Vampire! Magazine (an OC zine) and the OC pages. Below that, the update log and some fun bits 'n bobs. Feel free to steal my blinkies! No credit needed! Hail satan, and have a lovely afternoon!

DONATE TO PALESTINIAN RELIEF NOW!

See the links on the left sidebar for the history of the genocide in Palestine, active BDS movement boycotts, and a local representative locator that you can use to contact them and enact change.

Free Palestine

Why does it always have to be political? This page (and the website as a whole) is a love letter to anarchy and punk culture. Why focus so strongly on politics? "In order for me to write poetry that isn't political, I must listen to the birds, and in order to hear the birds, the warplanes must be silent." —Marwan Makhoul
I could go on and on about how politics effects everything we do, but at the end of the day, punk is political because we got done dirty by the status quo in myriad ways and we just want to live our lives and listen to bangin' music. A big part of being punk is realizing the world as we know it is built on training people to be polite and digressing while the rich and powerful step on their necks and tell them it's supposed to be this way (that it's always been this way). All the bullshit we live under is a symptom of a sick society running the planet into the ground — and taking as many innocent people with it as possible. So, why NOT make it political? Use your space and time on this earth to scream to power, on behalf of the people who are dying by the thousands in the name of a handful of rich cunts' bottom lines. Find your representatives. Show up to protests. Graffiti something. Do everything you can to make everyone's lives a little better.



"Untitled" (the lovers) by Zdzisław Beksiński.
Another of my favorite Beksinkski paintings! His work always managed to capture something nightmarish that few other artists in history could. This is one of his tamer pieces, but the spindly, sinuous quality of the central figure(s) is as grotesque as it is beautiful. I still wonder how on earth this artist managed to capture both the sharpness and the blur of half-rememmbered nightmares in oil.

I'm always a little disappointed I can't put MORE art on here but I do have limited space. For more cool art, check out my Tumblr tag!
