“Subversive Pop Culture”. What is it? Hyperpop, pop-punk, indie pop, glitch, emo, pop aesthetic, and anything pop that’s outside of the mainstream. Neuerotica is like when I used to hang with my crew in my friend’s basement, drinking whatever and smoking weed, with two girls giggling while doing a shotgun, more girls are in the bathroom doing bumps, and the stereo is about to blow our eardrums. Despite the smoke, it always smelled like sex in there, and it would cling to your clothing even after a long bus ride home. Not to mention, there wasn’t a time when we didn’t discuss politics through it all. That’s Neuerotica.

If you want to save yourself two hours and forty-five minutes of reading time, then the short bio at the top of the page should satisfy your curiosity about Neuerotica. There’s a lot more in this twelve-chapter introduction than I anticipated writing, but I believe that it’s worth it. You don’t have to read it straight through in one sitting (if you want to read it at all); you can skip sections by clicking the link of your choice in the table of contents at the top, and you’ll be taken to the section where the information you’re searching for can be found.

For those who want to get straight to our great content, be on your way; the masochists can follow me by clicking a link in the table of contents up top, and we’ll begin our journey into the depths of this phenomenon known as Neuerotica, take a deep dive into its origins and purpose, and perhaps learn something about its mysterious creator along the way.

Before we begin, please note that:

1) You don’t have to be a socialist to enjoy our articles (maybe stay clear of the editorial section).

2) Questions about our use of AI (we don’t make it, btw) can be found here in the last chapter.

3) If you’re racist, misogynistic, homophobic, or transphobic, you won’t have a good time here, and our articles are going to do nothing for you except have you foaming at the mouth. 

4) You don’t have to be queer, trans, non-binary, or neurodivergent to enjoy our content, but if you’re a straight, cis neurotypical, I hope that you enjoy our articles about some amazing people, regardless of your pronouns.

5) I’m human, fallible, and (contrary to the opinions of many), I don’t know it all. Everything you read in our Proem chapters was written by me, the publisher. You’re going to find errors and redundancy, and that’s to be expected. Neuerotica is the largest project I have ever taken on, involving building, rebuilding, and rebuilding again. I hope never to have to do anything like this again.

Now run along and have yourselves a good time here! We’ll leave the light on for ya.
