TG Donation Drive
toronto-goth.com has another hosting bill due very soon.
We are seeking donations from visitors to the website to help us cover these costs.
Please help us out if you like this site, find it useful, or maybe just have some extra money in your paypal account.
You can donate any amount directly and securely onto our hosting bill at http://www.dreamhost.com/donate.cgi?id=300 using your paypal account. The amount gets taken off our bill, it doesn't go into our debauchery funds.
As a thank you (for donations above $20US), if you like, we can provide one month of banner advertising on one of our rotating banner exchanges in return. The banner ads are a great way for you to spread the word about your band/store/product to the dark masses :)
Please contact us in advance (before you donate) so we can arrange the details.
Thanks to local bands Trench Run http://www.trenchrun.com and Delica http://www.delicamusic.com ![[info]](http://library.vu.edu.pk/cgi-bin/nph-proxy.cgi/000100A/http/web.archive.org/web/20050208210235im_/http:/=2fstat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) hermdelica for kicking off the donation drive and sending in their support.
Let's keep those donations coming!! |

Updated the TG model profiles
The purpose of this section is to provide fashion designers and photographers a one-stop resource to seek out new models.
If you're a model or would like to be one, feel free to submit your info and increase your exposure. Since it's modelling, people need to know what you look like, we are no longer accepting profiles w/out pictures. Also looking for more males to submit, it's been all females so far and some balance would be nice.

Pictures to come later maybe.
It's fabulous, and I would definitely recommend Starkers

Thanks T. for this gift.
In other news, it's a good thing I checked my email, I thought there was a party tonight and was going to stop by. Turns out it's not until tomorrow !

| quiz |
[Jan. 20th, 2005|11:38 pm] |
Well LJ ate my post so here's a quiz instead.
| You Are 27 Years Old |
27
Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.
13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.
20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.
30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!
40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

| mistaken, LJ has not made a deal with the DEVIL |
[Jan. 12th, 2005|08:49 pm] |
I retract.
Livejournal does not insert links into your posts based on the words you write. That would cause quite the uproar indeed, as evident in the few posts here and dragonlady's original post. And that only went on for about 15 minutes. Imagine the uproar if it was true.
This was the EVILNESS of Hyperlinker - spyware.
Detective badge of merit goes to: Miss Lynx
I can now return to my regularly scheduled programming. Checking email then having a hot bath and CSI at 10pm. |

[Jan. 12th, 2005|08:25 pm] |
This is a test.
Apparently LJ now inserts links into your entries. I think based on words that you write, and it links to a search for those words or something.
So I"m writing a bunch of words below to see what happens.
ice skates
cialis
free porn
naked women
naked men
golf
desperate housewives
computer
netscape
microsoft
anal sex
free
cough medicine
bela lugosi
dvd burner
candles
cat food
menstrual medication
digital camera
cigarette
dish soap
privacy violation
lawyer

| links on toronto-goth.com |
[Jan. 9th, 2005|08:53 pm] |
We're about to revamp the LINKS section of toronto-goth.com
You can view what's currently there at http://www.toronto-goth.com/links/text.shtml
I'm seeking your suggestions for links to include in order to have a complete listing and provide exposure to different websites in our community. Since this is a Toronto website, links should be related to Toronto, with some exceptions.
Please check to make sure your suggested link is not already listed. Revisions and updates are of course welcome.
Comment here or use the submission form at the above url to give your suggestions.
I will generally only link sites that provide a reciprocal link to http://www.toronto-goth.com (with some exceptions of course). I will also be going through the current links and making sure they still provide this reciprocal link. If they have removed our link, I will probably remove theirs. That might sound bitchy, but fair is fair. |

| LJ Friends - reductions |
[Dec. 30th, 2004|05:47 pm] |
On an LJ note, I think the turning of the calender to another year is a good time to make some changes to the friends list (again).
I don't want to spend so much time on LJ
I have removed people
I don't interact with
who don't interact with me
(the above two are the biggest ones)
also:
never really did interact with
don't seem to be on livejournal anymore
have not been so nice to me
who I question why they really are reading my journal
and so on.
I trust that nobody will take any offense.
Feel free to comment if you have any questions or concerns or if you think we should continue to be LJ friends.
Also, if anybody else would like to remove me, please go ahead!
As an aside, for anybody new: my profile states: please comment on one of my public posts if you would like me to add you to my list. |

| Satyricon |
[Dec. 24th, 2004|10:02 pm] |
You may have read in the papers:
"Two touring musicians with the Norwegian black metal band Satyricon are scheduled to make a Christmas Eve appearance at Old City Hall via video after being charged with giving a fan a date-rape drug and sexually assaulting her in a tour bus following a Dec. 15 concert."
full toronto star article
This concert took place at Funhaus.
A Norwegian journalist had actually emailed TG earlier this week (or maybe last week) and asked us if we knew anything or knew anybody who knew anything, as they were going to air later that day and wanted more info from Toronto people. I wrote back and said I hadn't heard anything, as at that point I hadn't.
I was looking at the stats for http://www.toronto-goth.com and noticed a huge spike on Tuesday Dec 21 which I guess is the day the story first broke wide into the mainstream media. I looked a little deeper and saw that a total of 958 hits came in via a search for key words funhaus toronto, some combined with norwegian. Add that to the regular number of hits, an additional 816 (beyond the 958) search queries were not logged which could also have been related. That is a lot of hits.
we don't actually have much information up on Funhaus, other then the clubs page and their current and past event archives.
A yahoo search for Satyricon rape yields what I assume are lyrics: "We shall Piss on your graves, kill your women, rape your daughters and torture your soul until eternity ends "
Utterly charming.
We posted a news item on toronto-goth.com on Dec 19th about drugs being used as a weapon in sexual assault, which was spurred by other recent events, but the warning would also be very valid in this case. |
