#also yet another playlist

The Drakes Spoiled Brat playlist :)

My ramblings for each song below- (Also feel free to share any recs)

Oh No! (MARINA)- This is legitimently the perfect trash Tim song, it outlines all his motivations and the entire vibe of "Oh this is so fucked up- but hes doing it to himself" prophecy of his death and all.

Flight of the Crows (Jhariah)- The entire vibe of "Im being welcomed but I don't belong here, not anymore and maybe never" Tim is the literal personification of "flight" as a fear response and begging his family to forget him for good.

Nobody(Mitski)- Tim being so isolated while surrounded by people, but its "for the greater good" right? If he wants too much he could ruin everything. And yet he still longs for that connection even for just a moment. But for now there is nobody-

Colors(Hasley)- I can assign meaning to every little lyric I swear to god. (Your little brother never tells you but he loves you so??? perfection) It isn't even exclusive to this AU just the entire characterization of Tim as someone who has been through so much and lost so much more and goes on anyways.

United in Grief(Kendrick Lamar)- Honestly i'm just bias towards this strong. But also the beginning of desperate "Tell them the truth" only to be cut off. Add on the entire vibe of living in the lap of luxury but finding no joy in it all other than temporary. "28 years young" as well just AHH-

Teen Idle(MARINA)- Tim lost his childhood not once but twice- the first time because he became Robin, and this time because he was the only one who could "save them". Does he regret it? No. But theres moments where hes Alan or Timothy and he forgets about everything else, for just a little bit.

Gasoline(Hasley)- Timmy gets a little mental breakdown as a treat <33 He knows how people see Timothy Drake, and he embraces the role out of nessisity- but acting as someone who you hate weighs to the point its hard to feel real isn't it?

I Cant Fix you (The Living Tombstone)- (Im a sucker for FNAF songs okay???) BUT ANYWAYYSS- Tim has fixed so so much and saved so many more, but he continuines to "fail" there continuies to be people he cant save and it weighs on him only pushing him further to self sacrifice.

Brother(Murder by Death)- His song to his family "Your stories are all the asme but the ends have all changed" by changing their fate hes changed THEM (less trauma does that Timmy) but there are still some things distinctly them.

Passing Through(Kaden MacKay)- Tim is fighting against time itself and a predetermined fate that he's desperate to do what he can and finally see the day he turns 18. Or well- if that isnt his destiny, to change what he can in the meantime.

#My art #Handplates #UT #Papyrus #I have not been able to get this idea out of my head for like - days now lol #It's only solidified the more I read! Heck!! #I dunno if I was necessarily hoping that reading further would point me in another direction but no now this is one of his songs lol #I really like Rugrats Theory actually :) The song of course it's lovely but I even have some nostalgia for the creepypasta haha #Been a while since I read it tho so that's probably just the soft haze of memory talking lol #But the song is still great! I'm partial to the English cover but I like the original as well :) #There are just so many fun lyrics! Especially for Papyrus specifically #''Everything I've been told I believe and yet people that I love just leave'' Gasterrr #''I think I'm old enough to understand so there's no reason to hide from me'' Sanssssssss #Once I returned to the scene of Sans trying to lie to him I just fjdslahfd these lyrics would Not leave me alone lol #I'm also Extremely partial to the second verse surrounding blindness and willful ignorance - his vision problems literal and metaphorical! #I wasn't planning to start a Handplates playlist but I guess by this point it's kinda too late haha #I also tried a different style of shading for this one ♪ Trying to style match a bit hehe #It's fun! Scratchy - tho some of that is from still using my usual brushes lol #I was Very inspired by watching the comic creation playlist - so cool! Very fun to watch and pick up ideas hehe #I knew I forgot something lol dang it - forgot the dash between WDG-2 #S'what I get for using pre-plates references :P #For just a quick little thing I'm fairly pleased overall tho :)

actually what gets me about d1 is how hyper aware these kids are that their parents don’t love them. in the kitchen scene when they’re absolutely silent after lonnie’s ‘i thought even villains loved their kids’… like there’s no grand realisation. no enlightenment. they are So Aware of the fact their parents don’t love them. even the first line in evie’s rttc verse: ‘so i’ve got some mischief in my blood / can you blame me? i never got no love’.

and yet, we see them desperately trying to please their parents. jay with the lamp. carlos, for a moment, believing cruella wants him to stay bc she’ll miss him. evie with her mother. mal agreeing to go to auradon so she can steal the wand for maleficent.

all of this desperation, some blind belief, which is always going to be futile. their efforts were pointless from the beginning. villains don’t love their kids. and the kids are so, painfully aware of that.

#listening to the vk mashup & it got me thinking #like!!!!!! everything is pointless!!!!!! nothing they do will ever work!!!!!! it was dead from the beginning!!!!! #and yet- #and yet. #another example is the museum & the absolute Horror of seeing their parents & ofc mal’s?? hallucinated musical number?? #i always forget that happens bc i removed that song from my descendants playlist #ANYWAY #yeah. these kids clamouring to please their parents. hoping that someday they’ll be enough #but also. part of them Knowing it’s not worth it. that villains don’t love their kids. they’re merely pawns in some crazed manic attempt+ #at power. #descendants #descendants 1 #core four #shining pearls

Does anyone here remember when I decided to grab three randomass characters from two different seasons of Power Rangers, NONE OF WHICH HAD EVER APPEARED ONSCREEN TOGETHER, and went, hey, I wonder what the hell would happen if we shipped them together? Just for shits and giggles? And wrote a coherent 6k oneshot that actually made their character arcs deeper and make more sense than the show's? Now that was a proper crackship!

(Anyway, I was putting together the last of the playlists for this series and stumbled upon my Matt Griffin/Heckyl/Levi Watson fic. And remembered how batshit insane I could be back in the day. Because I don't remember how I thought of this concept, just that it worked out weirdly well. Also led to some of the funniest scenes in the series when Chase/Ivan found out that Heckyl was not only Riley's brother's Soulmate, but that Heckyl and Matt had another gold ranger as a Soulmate. I'm still tempted to write the world's funniest family dinner ft. Heckyl, Matt, Chase, Ivan, Brody, Levi, and Preston.)

#levi watson #aiden romero #heckyl #matt griffin #chase randall #ivan of zandar #riley griffin #power rangers #power rangers dino charge #power rangers ninja steel #soulmate au #now THIS is a proper crackship #at least most of my other polyships had SOME basis in canon (i.e. SPD OT5 RPM OT5 even ivan/chase/riley) but this one? not a damn thing #also reminds me of the crack potential of kendall/emily/mack but that's another story for another day #yet another ship i converted people to #if there's one thing i'm learning with this playlist series is that I have more fans than i thought i did #this week is REALLY good for my serotonin levels lemme tell you #my fics #aletterinthenameofsanity

i need someone to poke me with a stick every 10 minutes and tell me to study

#i've watched 4 youtube videos #changed playlists 7 times #tried to reorganise my room before giving up #changed locations thrice #made 2 tumblr posts that went in my drafts #and made myself 3 hot beverages #(one of which i forgot about before taking one sip and then went to make another one because 'oh i wanted a tea! can't believe i forgot' #searched for 10 minutes for my mug (spoiler alert: it was on my table with already prepared tea) and then just took a different one. #then i came back to the room with it just to come face to face with the other tea) #oh and i also sent 50 messages to my little brother who's in class rn #oops #and guess what i'm doing right now? making yet another tumblr post instead of studying #the adhd seems to be adhding particularly hard today #tea's ramblings

[rosyredlipstick]

now why the FUCK did i just get a new fic idea

#my brain is on an all star wars diet (andor is sooooo fucking good and also fallen order is turning my mind into a smoothie) and YET ???? #im not gonna write another fic. im not. but i do have five pages of notes and I've started a new playlist. and im disappointed with myself. #SPACE FIC THEN NOVEL I PROMISED MYSELF OMG #im putting the idea in a crockpot. i am putting that crockpot in a drawer. i am walking away from the drawer. #the idea will cook very slowly and i will not touch it and im not going to be tempted by it even a little bit #sigh #SIGH!

You’ve Really Got a Hold on Me by Smokey Robinson & The Miracles

#byler #stranger things #bizarre love triangle playlist #will byers #will's pov #will is so petty but honest i love him #'i dont like you. but i love you 🙄. seems that i'm always thinking of you' #'though you treat me badly. i love you madly. you've really got a hold of me.' #this whole song is just this back and forth battle of someone in love while simultaneously being frustrated af with said person #'i dont want you. but i need you. don't want to kiss you. but i need to. though you do me wrong now. my love is strong now.' #i also love this part bc it highlights the main difference between will's feelings for mike vs el's feelings for mike #it's not as simple as liking or wanting bc yes it is all of those things but more than that it is a NEED #you'll notice a lot of songs on here in will's pov highlight need in terms of his feelings for mike #which fits with his whole speech to mike in the van #'(i) need you mike. and (i) always will.' #there's also this juxtaposition of el and will both experiencing mike pulling away #el wants to hold on as hard as she can but she knows that it's not going anywhere and she is ready to let go by the end of s4 #will wants to hold on as hard as he can but he knows (assumes) that it's not going anywhere and yet he can't quite let go #'i want to leave you. don't want to stay here. don't want to spend another day here. oh i want to split now. i can't quit now' #leading up to their rain fight in s3 it's as if will is getting to this point where he is ready to leave #and then mike says what he says #and now he really has to go bc it's all too real ('yeah. i guess i did. i really did.' #then a whole season later when will is at his limits again up to their rink-o-mania fight its as if he is trying harder than ever to hold o #it's bc he can't quit now #'you've really got a hold of me' #will is in love now folks

you know thinking about the fact that there's like radios and microphones and stuff canonically in ffxiv leads me to the thought that fiver actually has a perfect job if he ever retires from heroing which is to go full bard and start releasing albums. who isn't going to buy the warrior of light's cd. who isn't going to excitedly tune in if moon rabbit radio says they've got him performing live in studio. he'll be set for life.

#he'll be set for even a viera life #if the way everyone remembered him 200 years after death is anything to go by #this train of thought was started by me starting to make yet another fiver playlist on spotify #which is to say fiver's debut album #and also a friend doing the loporrit quests and finding out they start a radio station with a therapist loporrit like FUCKING FRASIER #fel's ffxiv #oc: fiver #fiver would never perform live like for a crowd though #he's too shy for that #it takes him such a long time to even feel comfortable playing for the scions #and i think they are all startled to find out he's a very talented bard who can play several instruments #outside of the few things he does in battle #cause like when did he have time to get that hobby #g'raha gets to hear him the most

There's something about silly cafe AUs that soothes my soul so much

#hi. my name is pluto and i came up with yet another idea for a fic #will i ever finish the previous wips? who knows #anyways. imagine a spiderverse cafe au where the spiders run a small cafe/restaurant/bakery whatever #the parker surname is funny inside joke bc none of them are related #peter b is either that one employee whos been there longest (has a lot of experience) or is the owner #peter b's mary jane delivers the fruit and vegetables and whatnot. theyre exes and are trying to act professional #but they decide to try again (like in the movie). the drama is unreal and the rest of the spider squad tease him about it so much #gwen is that one punk teen thats kinda scary. feels like shes judging you but shes actually just tired #rude customers stand no chance against her. makes delicious coffee. makes the best playlists. chill coworker #peni is also a teen. the best coworker you could ask for. customers love her bc shes very pleasant and overall really really nice #miles is the fresh faced part timer. kinda clumsy. well liked amongst the aunties and moms #draws THE BEST doodles on the cups/bags and so on #noir is also the scary coworker whos very chill once you get to know him. takes care of the deliveries. makes the food #strong as fuck. all the moms and grandmas fawn over him but hes clueless #felix (male felicia hardy. kinda an oc at this point?? love him so much) is one of the delivery guys. very punctual and pleasant #also very charming. brings gifts and things like that to people he likes. sneaks in snacks #benjamin (noir) doesnt care much for him at the beginning but after some time he weirdly?? feels upset?? when the delivery person #is not felix?? they start talking while taking the stuff out of the delivery van. laugh. get to know each other better #then felix starts visiting the cafe/whatever. becomes a regular. benjamin starts giving him food/coffee 'for the road' #the rest of the squad thinks theyre disgustingly adorable and try to get them together #I JUST CAME UP WITH THIS BUT I WILL DIE IF I FORGET ABOUT THIS #midnightfangz.txt #fanfiction #writing #long tags #spiderman: into the spiderverse

Will never understand why Spotify keeps trying to advertise Top 40/UK Charts playlists to me, like who tunes into Spotify specifically to listen to a playlist of Top 40 music? You mean the same Top 40 music that is on every radio station 24/7? The same Top 40 music that is forced into your eardrums ad nauseum, to the point where even if you liked the music to begin with, it very soon becomes meaningless and also oddly rage-inducing? The same Top 40 music I trip over on my way out of the house every morning? The same Top 40 hits that break into my brain and beat my sub-consciousness into submission if I so much as LOOK at a device capable of playing music? That Top 40 music? Who on earth needs it to be advertised to them? The sort of people who need a signpost to tell them they're on planet earth?

#This being tumblr I'm sure there's someone somewhere who does think they need it #But like #If you're going to advertise anything I don't understand why you would advertise Top 40 hits #It's like advertising the concept of breathing #All I'm saying is they're not exactly hard to find I don't understand why someone would need to be TOLD that spotify has Top 40 playlists #Also like unless you're a music writer or reporter who has to keep up to date with this stuff #I don't entirely understand the interest in keeping up to date with chart toppers anyway #If you like the music you like it if you don't you don't #Why would you listen to it solely because it's number 39 on some entirely arbritrary chart #But that's beside the point even assuming that you WERE in need of a playlist of Top 40 hits #Surely you woudn't need to be told that spotify has that in abundance #If you even go to spotify for it at all #Surely you know where to find it #I.e. everywhere #This is the 2020s top 40 hits are in the fucking air we breathe #Also yet another thing to file under: reasons I am glad I no longer work in a shop #Loved the work hated the same 5 hits that are permanently engrained in my memory because management tortured us with pop radio

Song of the Day: March 18

"Break Down Here" by Julie Roberts

#song of the day #another day lost to the blurry fog of not being asleep and yet not being awake. I am not loving this feeling #I did make a truly gigantic baked bacon mac & cheese and the sequel came out for the CoD dragon fic I read the other day #fic rec #'the road to hell (is paved with good intentions)' by sunshowers_and_dandelion_wine #phenomenal fic. absolutely wonderful characterization. and then the second fic is Ghost's POV of the first and it's just !! so good #I also tried to organize some of my fanmix things and instead nearly immediately derailed myself #thinking about the 'driving away from heartbreak' playlist I've always meant to put together #call it 'tank of gas and a beat-up heart' after the line in 'Georgia' by Carolyn Dawn Johnson #add 'You Can Sleep While I Drive' by Trisha Yearwood and 'This Far From Memphis' by Easton Corbin #every once in a while I think of another song I might could add to the list and then I never write the damn things down #anyway 'Break Down Here' is one of the dozen-ish big-voice country songs I go to when I'm cooking or doing dishes #'sure hate to break down here / nothin up ahead or in the rear-view mirror #out in the middle of nowhere knowin / I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin #god help me keep me movin somehow / don't let me start wishin I was with him now #I made it this far without cryin a single tear / and I'd sure hate to break down here'

Have you listened to Ay-Yo or the other new singles part of NCT 127’s repackaged album? I always enjoy diving into your perspective on groups artistic vision! I never really gave them much time but was sucked into their recent music (I think it’s because of Dem Jointz and Kenzie who helped produce some of the album??). The AY MV wasn’t as flashy as 2 Baddies but I do love a cunt moment and Taeyong delivered for me. I am now so curious about NCT!! You’ve mentioned before that they’re one of the backbones of 4th gen. What do you think it is about the group that has established them beyond others? I appreciate that the songs are experimental and unafraid. The music videos always feel like being sucked into an intense video game and I am here for it lol. Thanks for running such a thoughtful blog btw! Most times I feel like I’m in a little island with too many thoughts but it’s always a fun time checking out your posts.

yes! i love ay yo and the new songs on the repack! skyscraper is my fave of the three but i also really dig dj. dem jointz has actually produced quite a few of 127's title tracks, including cherry bomb, punch, kick it, sticker, and some bsides like right now, time lapse, designer, and nct dream's arcade! kenzie has also done a few 127 tracks including limitless, favourite, and several of my all time fave nct songs ok! and music dance.

sm obvs has big three privilege and for a reason, they have a really long history as one of the founding pillars of the industry since they pretty much invented it. bc of the company's status and their consistency with training their idols + the legacy of the popularity of their groups + the quality of their music, any new group that sm debuts automatically garners a lot of attention, both from the gp and from others in the industry. because of that, they tend to be imitated just by nature of having that much publicity, but nct made a splash with weird choreo and ''noise'' music. the seventh sense was a very unusual debut and no one's managed to level up to it since, even if nct wasn't exactly doing anything that new for the era they debuted in. they're spiritually continuing f(x)'s musical legacy, and the weird choreo + acrobatics of late third gen you can see in other groups that debuted in 2016, like knk and sf9. it's just that they had the higher visibility and outlasted a lot of other groups, so the combination of all those factors is what solidified them as being a significant influence on the subsequent generations.

#sm groups are never TOTALLY new. theyre almost always building on a concept taken from another gen and pointing in a different direction #which is how you should build a group tbh #nct is very strange as a kpop group and profoundly underutilized but even the thing theyre known for (units) isnt even unique to them lol #lsm is so desperately chasing after the jpop mega group model even though it very dramatically failed with suju and exo #bc kpop fans are not receptive to altering established group structures #the fact that nobody's left nct yet is a MIRACLE when you look at how how their predecessors fared #but the basis of their success has to do with being from sm specifically #plus theyre all very well trained musicians (not as in playing instruments as in understanding music) #also all the typical things like: good music good concepts and theyre good performers etc etc #and theyve kind of become the epitome of 'good artists pulling off insane/''bad'' music/concepts bc of their skills' #id recommend watching their dingo killing voice bc you can see them absolutely wipe the fucking floor #actually there's also a drunk version of designer that they did and where the rapline totally forgets their verses #(even though they have lyrics in front of them) #i have a TONNE of nct playlists if you want recs they have a huge catalogue and it's so good #kpop questions #nct #nct w #text #answers #the tldr of this is nct is the backbone of 4th gen bc sm knows how to build a group

[northlight14]

Me: hey, I just made this new OC! They’re not super developed yet but I really like the concept of them so far…

My brain: this is all you care about now

Me: what?

My brain: yeah that OC is all you’re gonna think about for the next several days. And I mean all you think about

Me: why tho?

My brain: I dunno. But I’ve already got ideas for the full backstory, know the perfect songs for them, have come up with several scenarios involving them, have a pretty good understanding of their character and motivations and have figured out their zodiac sign and MBTI

Me: it’s been 4 days wtf?!

My brain: wanna make a playlist and Pinterest board for them?

Me:

Me: yeah alright

#someone help. this post isn’t an exaggeration. I have done everything single thing listed here in this exact amount of time #I created them on Monday. it is now Thursday. that’s both such a short amount of time to have gotten this much done #and yet such a long time to only think about one character😅 #let alone a character I created! #im just a little obsessed and I didn’t anticipate this #that playlist mentioned also has 46 songs on it #plus the playlist and Pinterest board I made for a ship between him and another one of my characters #Oc #dungeons and dragons #original character #writers on tumblr #writblr #leucis #<- that’s the characters name. we Stan him. they’re evil but it’s fine😂 #OC’s #dnd #d&d

song of the day - surface pressure by jessica darrow

this song is on my teenage mutant ninja turtle (tmnt) playlist tired tmnt vibes🐢. this song reminds me of my sister in this dr, april. she’s older than me and tries to keep things to herself so i don’t worry about it even though i want to help. we’ve always had each other, and i love her a ton <3 although we mess up a lot she’s the best sister i could ever ask for in a different reality.

give it to your sister, your sisters older

give her all the the heavy things we can’t shoulder

who am i if i can’t run with the ball?
