Youd expect they become a "weirder" bunch when they come together, they just look more stupid instead haha

I´m cringing just looking at this
Usually just find the attempts to be edgy more or less amusing, but I find the lobotomy references to be in extraordinarily bad taste. It's just so...ugh. I guess that screenshot is from gasmask guy's social media? (I can't find it on Dakota's).
It’s from his instagram. Totally agree about the lobotomy thing, coincidentally I’ve just gone on a rabbit role on TikTok about Rosemary Kennedy and the way her family completely destroyed her life with a lobotomy, she was such a bright and lively person, which didn’t fit the “perfect woman” standards of the time and certainly not the standards of a family who aimed to climb to the top.
The “lobotomy eyes” trend and making fun of the procedure and mental disorders is in such bad taste, not a surprise she and her friends would be a part of it. This was the caption btw:
Thanks for providing the caption—comes off like gas mask wants to put all the responsibility on Dakota as if it isn't his own account where he has full control of what goes on there.
It's like deep down they're both aware it's very crass to mock this subject but are too committed to being seen as edgy to just not go there and also too afraid to fully take responsibility for any backlash they might receive from their 'edginess' (gas mask stating it's Dakota's idea and Dakota not posting it on her own account). I think this evasion of responsibility also nullifies the 'edginess' (sorry for overusing this term lol) because neither are willing to fully stand by the offensiveness but want to minimize it. (Hope this makes sense.)
(Also: Rosemary: The Hidden Kennedy Daughter is a really well-written, informative book about her story if you're interested in a deeper dive)
Thank you for the book rec! You nailed the ‘edginess’ analysis, there are many notorious artists who had questionable behaviors, however they are to genuinely eccentric and original creatives what rupi kaur is to modern poetry.
The gas mask guy is even worse than Dakota imo, the only reason he has an audience at all is because he lives in an old house and plays up his “aristocratic” ties. At least she’s self made and is actively working towards being something other than a TikTok star, however weak the attempts have been so far, what does that guy really do other than dress up and walk around his house all day?
Wild she's like 23? Its tit I did when I had a soft grunge tumblr account when I was 15
She just turned 25 actually lmao
I guess this thread isn’t too active but I had to say something - the whole thing about Dakota not sharing her significant other is soooo cringe to me, like showing photos of their clothes hanging up next to eachother is just begging people to ask who he is. If you really want him to be kept private, you wouldn’t show pictures of his clothes or even mention that you were seeing someone?! God, everything she does is complete pretentious cringe that we all did back in 2013/14 tumblr days. I can’t believe anyone actually takes her seriously
Can’t believe she’s 25 and behaving the way she does
I think it may be because her partner does not want to be associated with her online persona, esp if he (i assume) works in a job that requires that
Speaking of stories, I remember the Gentleman guy shared a story of Dakota and her bf into some PDA, it was up for some hours then it was deletedIn one of ther latest stories (it may have been a couple of days ago already) she tagged who I believe to be Gentleman Gas Mask´s motherI wonder what her opinion on her (presumably) son´s and his friends - including Dakota - antics is
Do you know who her boyfriend is?Speaking of stories, I remember the Gentleman guy shared a story of Dakota and her bf into some PDA, it was up for some hours then it was deleted
Was trying to see who who this gas mask person is, and through photo tags found this horror movie material.

From a new TikTok, I burst out laughing when I read this

If I’m not mistaken he’s an actor, @/darcystreamer on instagram
He is cutee but seems so young! Also he seems very vanilla, i feel like dakota could chew and spit him hahaha
From what I’ve seen he’s also into the pretentious artsy stuff so they might be a good match, but that’s just what I’ve gathered from hers/the gentleman’s social media, might be wrong.
