Not even when he gets to do what he loves, Mortimer would steal his spotlight 😭

let’s just say what’s happening is they’re trying to convince Riley to stay & be obedient to her “father” with song. I also hc all the Handee have good singing voices.

‘well punk is rooted in socialist beliefsssssss’ okay cool. call yourself a socialist and get out of my music subgenre

#text #my post #mobi #it’s sort of a all punks are socialists (or at least should be because yes in practice that’s not necessarily what happens) #but not all socialists are punks. which is fine. like everyone wants to be a cool kid but you do actually have to listen to the music to #call yourself a fan of the music. sorry. i don’t know why this is like. mean to say. #like idk! i don’t even call MYSELF a punk because i don’t live the aesthetic all the time! #like i listen to the music and am involved in some scenes a bit but even ME. WHO LIKES AND IS ON SOME LEVEL INVOLVED WITH LIKING THE MUSIC #even i’m like yeah but am i a punk??? and at that point i KNOW ohhhhhh being kind is punk letting sunshine flow out of your ass is punk #crowd sure as shit isn’t. okay. sorry. done. #edit: some people in the notes are pointing out the subculture =/= the music genre and there are people who don’t or can’t listen to music #who are involved. this is all true! i apologize for not including this in my discussion #and that is true. obviously. however i need to point out once again that those people do PICK UP AESTHETICS and are involved in the spaces #and movement so my point still stands. sorry for leaning so heavily on the music aspect my b

i am an incredibly sentimental person and lately i find myself remembering items i once had and wondering what happened to them and mourning them

#no because this was just a silly little post about a dinosaur piggy bank I had #but all of a sudden I just remembered meeting my great grandparents who passed when I was pretty little #i remember meeting my great grandpa specifically I think #and he had all these glass trinkets #and he let me pick one #and I picked this beautiful girl in a pink dress and she was a music box #and I don’t know what happened to her #she broke i know that #for years she was just a skirt that played music #from my siblings running in the house and it shaking my shelves and her falling (from being too close to the ledge ig) #but i don’t know if my mom made me get rid of her when we moved?? #I don’t remember having her in our second house #and certainly haven’t seen her since then #ugh my heart has been hearting for objects from the past #i used to have my grandmas cape and I finally asked my mom if she still has it #and I’m almost positive she’s going to have thrown it away and it like literally was the most gorgeous thing #and like the idea of it having been donated #like yes I’m very happy for whoever got it obviously #but. i grew up wearing it to school. it was made by my grandmothers hands. i want it. i want it I want it I want it #(I used to work myself into fits as a kid being sentimental about objects and then convincing myself I was spoiled cause you know ‘I want it #‘ isn’t a great narrative. so then I would sob because of that. it was a fun time.) #anyway I’m supposed to be unpacking but I’m just so full of nostalgia and also overwhelmed by unpacking despite the fact that I don’t have #anything to be overwhelmed by yet since I haven’t gone to actually get my stuff lmao #life of a boomerang

#kpop #kpop polls #polls #stray kids i know EVERYTHING #txt i know a lot but have yet to fully immerse myself in their (great) music #g idle i listen a lot know a good amount but just stan a lil less than txt #enhypen was always on my list and i’m slowly getting in there #they were some of the songs that triggered my re entry into kpop #ateez keeps showing up on everything now so i’m finally getting into that too #but i’ve listened to their music for a while #dreamcatcher i just LOVE their songs but know nothing about them 😭 #mamamoo was from my og kpop phase but i was never fully a moomoo #some of my first songs were hip mamamoo and eclipse moonbyul so #itzy is just everywhere #nmixx so talented #seventeen have such great vibes and music but i’m struggling to become a carat IM GETTING THERE THO

I do mainly see writing as like a fun hobby i pursue when the impulse strikes me but i really do always want to improve! So because this is a blog im thinking about my writing goals for this current project:

Try to pull back and be more ambiguous when writing metaphors etc try not to state things so directly

Reduce the amount of like, buffer words, like she thinks or she feels. We’re in her pov we already know this is her thinking

Try to make my protagonist interesting without relying on her being funny (why didn’t I just write a funny protagonist?? what was I thinking!)

#while I can see the places my prose has improved since edge of seventeen im having a harder time seeing improvement since #so I’m trying to set goals for myself idk #like i do think that the load out was some of the best writing ive done in terms of craft. it was very unserious #not in a bad way! it was a ton of fun and I think it does what I set out to do really well! but it’s very much in my comfort zone #kids. music. humor. you know? #and I want to set goals that i can be conscious of while I’m writing and see if I can improve my prose that way #I think as of right now my writing-writing is sometimes awkward and often serviceable. and i want it to get… more subtle I guess #this is not fishing for compliments btw you do not have to reassure me that my writing is good or whatever #it’s just something I try to think about on my own #since I don’t have the time/seriousness to do a writing group or class or anything #anyway! stuff for me to work on! #while you were sleeping au

i haven't really been doing anything besides lying on the couch today listening to wtf with marc maron and playing solitaire on my phone but im not feeling as doomed as i usually would and i think that is literally only because i haven't been compulsively watching youtube. like just actively not doing that is enough to make me feel tentatively hopeful about the future? it's weeeird man. and i would say it is a comfort podcast for sure so it's not exactly hard work but the difference is that it's not a mindless compulsion and its not like that manic escapism im engaging in when im watching the same 4 minute clips on youtube over and over. i'm feeling present for the first time in a while. i might go for a walk. treat myself to a nice dinner. clean the room.

#i don't even have tiktok anymore i don't play phone games compulsively and that is probably cause youtube replaced it but if i can kick that #habit. then i think we'll be actually be okay kid.......... #i’m also putting myself on music timeout im realizing that has also become a compulsion. its like everything is suddenly making sense

what do u do on days u wake up feeling empty and the only things that stir smth up in ur brain and body are memories of times/places that are long gone…. like what am i supposed to do with that….. i don’t feel like a person today i just wanna wake up in my childhood bedroom and smell the way it smelled in winter but i can’t do that so i just go through my day feeling vaguely nauseously unsettled and untethered…. and that doesn’t feel fair but i don’t know what can be done about it

#i know i sound like a broken record but i miss my trees. i miss feeling like i’m home. i miss feeling safe in my body. #i miss the owls and doves that fill the morning by my grandma’s old house and the smell of the co-op and the river #and the way the mountains look surrounding the valley. protecting me. #i miss the feeling of my hands on the window in winter and reading my favourite books for the first time i miss chris i miss my old bed #i miss myself. i feel like i’ve been lost for years #sometimes i wake up distracted and i fill my brain with anything i can find and i cheat the system and i feel things #for a little while. if i keep moving fast enough i forget that i’m lonely. i forget that i’m lost #but sometimes i stop and it catches up to me and i have to sit on the floor #sometimes i realise how far from home i am in every sense of the word and i feel like a child lost in a supermarket #except this time no one is coming to find me if i just stand still #i wake up and everything i can think of that would make me happy is a mirage #i wake up and the music isn’t enough and i want to start pedalling backwards and i feel like i’m floating very fast downstream #and there’s a waterfall looming somewhere in the distance and i can’t grab a log #im not gonna fall off. nothing is ever bad enough for anyone to worry about me drowning. but i am still very wet and very far from home #so what. do. i. do. ? #when i was a kid we lived in a house that had a very large oak tree out front (this was before the house with the willow tree) #at the base of the oak tree was a small fairy pond. we moved in during winter and it was frozen solid and u couldn’t see anything in it #but come spring it melted and we discovered the fairy pool was chock full of marbles of all colours and sizes. hundreds of them. #it was so thrilling to know they’d been waiting for me all winter to find them in the warmth. where are the marbles now #is anything waiting for me? is anything hiding in the frozen pond? #@the universe: i need a little help now pls. pls send me something small and colourful i wasn’t expecting. hundreds of them. or just one. #i am open to it all #because i can’t go back in time and smell my childhood bedroom in winter. and i will not go over the waterfall. so bring me marbles #~ signed yours truly. ps tell the trees i’m still the same

[wannaseenirvanaa]

(wrote this song before i left for college but it’s sure applicable to life right now!!!!)

lyrics: falling from grace, i’m a rusting lace artifact / tears down my face as i break my immortal pact / trust me, i want to be healthy / trust me, i want to be special and loving and sweet / trust me, i know that i’m broken / please, i just want one more chance to prove that i could be the— / best friends know how to reveal me / best friends know how hard i try to have something to say / best friends know that it’s not helping / can i just go far away to where there’s nowhere else to— / turn around, up and down, i’m melting!!!! / turn around, i have something to say!!!! / color bleeding, heartbeat leaving, need a place to lay my head / arms are folded, fine print bolded, everything is overloaded!!!!!!!! / color faded by the sun, i bite my tongue, i’m coming undone / color faded by the sun, i bite my tongue, i’m coming undone / color faded by the sun, i bite my tongue / trust me, i want to be healthy / trust me, i want to be special and loving and sweet / trust me, i know that i’m broken / trust me, i know that i’m broken….

#when i write a song and don’t know what it means and then i have a breakdown and suddenly know what it means #turns out i have been compartmentalizing since i was a VERY young child as if there are two parts of me completely separate #and one of them is this golden child perfect person always so ready to please #and the other one is a literal fucking monster. that’s how i’ve been thinking about myself since i was a little kid #and i sort of. i had a breakdown about that last week and then yesterday i was so upset about not being able to separate myself from illness #how i’ve always been treated and treated myself as if there’s a perfectly healthy person in there somewhere who is just plagued with demons #so i’m constantly reaching for this person that doesn’t exist and never has and never will #because i can’t accept myself as a whole being complete with good and bad parts of me #it’s also just autism/POTS venting shdhdhdf but i knew that much #it wasn’t until i thought about my childhood though that i realized i’ve always been autistic i’ve always had mobility issues (though less) #and that i have never let myself integrate those aspects of myself into my permanent identity. like i’m waiting for them to go away so i can #prove myself and show how good i can be at just being normal. so i don’t know. anyway here’s a song #P.S. i processed my emotions so good and i’m normal now. gonna get dinner with that guy today and have a normal person conversation #so don’t worry about me. i pretty much fell asleep after i posted and i’m doing a lot better now #anyway i’m not great at this instrument shdhdf and i’ve also been crying so like as a piece of music this isn’t great #but as an expression of a feeling and idea. these are the feelings and ideas i’ve been thinking about #of all the things to theoretically be overheard by a ton of neighbors though. living in a dorm is nerve-wracking!!!! #most people don’t hang around my dorm at this time of day though i’ll be alright. hope everyone is doing well #me. my post. mine. #ask to tag #music

Here’s a little about me!

My middle name is David so call me David, and I use he/they pronouns.

I’m 18 going on 19 (i turn 19 next week).

I’m a musical theatre lover! I’ve been in and worked behind the scenes of many shows, including Newsies (my fav) where I played Davey! And that’s the career i’m going to pursue!

Some of my favorite musicals are Newsies, West Side Story, Bonnie and Clyde, Heathers, Beetlejuice, Ride the Cyclone, and Mary Poppins!

Some of my dream roles are: Jack Kelly, Davey (Newsies), Clyde Barrow (Bonnie and Clyde), Tony, Riff, Action (West Side Story), Adam, Beetlejuice (Beetlejuice), Kurt, Ram (Heathers), Wizzer (Falsettos), Michael Mell (Be More Chill)

I’m also (formerly as of right now) a band kid. I played the trombone and tuba in high school. I pick up my trombone (his name is Philip) every once and a while. Band is my second main passion!

I love history and costuming and will probably talk about that concerning Newsies in some posts!

I’ve met 3 famous people in my life! Awsten Knight from Waterparks, Ashton Irwin from 5sos and my fav Ben Fankhauser from Newsies!

Thanks for reading!

did any of you guys listen to Jennifer Knapp as a kid?

#She was my favorite musician as a child when I was only allowed to listen to Christian music (it holds up though I still like it) #but also she’s a lesbian and she came out when I was in high school and it started me realizing most things I’ve attached myself strongly t #have been just like extremely lgbt coded or literally just lgbt to begin with #and like I’ve listened to semler forever and they performed with Jennifer Knapp a few times and I was like… I’m going to lose my mind over #this whole concept #But like Jennifer Knapp was basically my first concert as a kid and I met her and she signed my cd and I’ve always wanted to see her as an #adult but have not yet done that and idk if it would heal something in me or just further break it

If I decide to deepen my voice; I could do something really cool.

Record all the female parts for duet songs before the voice change; and then record the male parts after. Then edit them together and put it to music.

#Ideally I’d do the music first #I have a song I wrote that I could do this with (husband and wife parts; with a kid at the end… I might get an actual kid to voice the kid) #Whether I decide to make hormonal alterations or not I would like to make an utau/vocaloid of my voice #so I can sing duets with a robot version of myself #But for songs not made by me… I’m thinking: #Anything you can do I can do better #The Tinker of Rye (if I end up being able to go that low ASDFGHDBDN) #Golden Ring #Sixteen going on Seventeen #The Tango Maureen #Cantarella #Pass the Kerosene (if I can go that high now) #Partners in Crime
