Dharma

Dharma means ‘everything in its right place’ just as Karma means ‘a things journey to its right place’.

Dharma is a state of balance.

Dharma associates with King Damuz after whom the Babylonian-Assyrian city of Damascus is named. Damuz taught a philosophy of civil and natural Order, necessary for the stability of urban living which at that time involved inner-city urban agriculture to create siege-proof self-sufficient city states.

The principle of Dharma later developed into Buddhist law from its Sanskrit roots.

Gothpunk

Although designated to the Goth - Rock - Punk movement in general, which definitely predates use of this term, 'GothPunk' was first coined by Mark Rein-Hagen for the White Wolf publications series of originally five World of Darkness storytelling game books, most notable of which is Vampire: the Masquerade, 1991.

The GothPunk milieu is a film noir environment, a dystopian world of extremes.

Suicide Slut

Not exclusive to but characterised by Emo culture.

Usually female or gay male with borderline personality disorder who is so frustrated with life that self harm, contemplation and attempt of suicide, alcohol and drug escapism becomes desperate feeling of worthlessness directed toward wanting to be treated like a rape victim by any energy donor who happens along to sexually abuse them.

Subculture predating but augmented by and emerging from mobile internet dating apps. Falls within BDSM categories because cutting as sexual fetishism.

Songs such as Marilyn Mansons ‘disposable teens’ and characters such as the girl in Fight Club summarise it.

“Hey man she’s a suicide slut , I’d wreck her.”
