Today is World Goth Day, and thanks to the Twin Cities weather for perfectly cooperating as it is cloudy and rainy and moody and broody outside.

The day originated in the U.K. in 2009 by two DJs from BBC Radio 6 and now it's celebrated in 50 events spread across 10 countries. It's a day where the goth scene gets to "celebrate its own being, and an opportunity to make its presence known to the rest of the world".
