wait hold on now I am genuinely curious: Why is D-Sides your favourite Gorillaz album? I never vibed with it myself so I am interested in hearing what you like about it that I'm missing out on.

so, i haven't listened to Gorillaz in a long while, nor do i tend to listen to music that actively these days, but i re-listened to the entire album, side 1 and side 2, to try and come up with a reason why i like it so much. i do want to preface and say, yeah, the album (side 1 atleast) is very "plain", there's not a whole lot going on, nor are there any guest artists on any of the songs.

but in listening to the album again, a few things kinda appear in my brain regarding the album. one is that it brings back a set of memories of taking trips to and from Ohio to live with my mother and step-father during a few breaks between high school, and how a lot of the songs in the album i remember heavily listening to while trying to sleep in the back of their car (i'm 6'2", and sleeping horizontally in the back of a moderately small car was. not great). i had the main 6 albums before Humanz installed to my kindle, since Humanz hadn't come out yet as these trips were between... 2014 and 2016. i mainly remember hearing D-Sides the most i feel on those trips, whether it be intentional, or my sleep patterns would have me looping back around to D-Sides... that or i mostly started with D-Sides at the beginning of those trips.

another thing i'm kinda thinking about after having re-listened to the album is how much side 1 kinda reminds me of Boe, in terms of the vibes; there's a lot of somber vibes i get from some songs that fits well for him (Hong Kong and Spitting Out the Demons both being notable songs that remind me of Boe himself, and also of those long trips). side 2 on the other hand, it's remixes remind me a lot of the Sims 2, specifically the console version, as i associate a lot of Sims 2 with it's console selection of music... which is mostly a more heavy focus on the electronic tracks from the PC version; a lot of the remixes feel like something i could hear playing on the radio while i'm controlling my sim around and doing tasks.

last thing, maybe, is that i never hear folks refer to D-Sides as one of their favourites, so maybe that's why i have it as mine. out of respect perhaps.

#ask #anon #honestly i think a lot of how i imagine Boe's world being similar to that of Gorillaz/Demon Days era of Gorillaz #like with o green world's trash filled wasteland. right. or kong studios trashed vibes during Demon Days. #that's kinda a vibe i think about with both hell and limbo. although i only really imagine the trash being a focus in Boe's house #which is less of something he has to deal with ever since having Budd around #but. anyway. maybe D-Sides isnt what you could call a ''traditional favourite'' of mine but. #idk its still got vibes for me. #like all 6 albums before humanz i would all put in my top 3. yeah that doesnt make sense but. whatever man. #im not sure if this is the answer youre looking for though. for me i guess its familiarity. #and ofc having D-Sides so high has nothing to say about Demon Days or Plastic Beach btw #honestly like. between those six. i feel a lot share the number 1 place. #i cant explain it but. yeah #i hope this atleast makes some sense anon. its less about the music itself and more of how i associate with it i guess #thats art babey #thank you for this ask anon #i wanted to give the best answer i could. which involved listening to the entire thing in the dark so it was my full focus #and from that the response above is kinda my summary on it all.

believe it or not, artistry is about development and growth as much as it is about expression and creation, especially beacuse sometimes there is creative expression in growth

#raaah been thinking a lot about dichotomies #specifically like #growth and expression and all that #it feels pertinent in that people are still doing the whole #oh lets scream at artists #real fucking people #comrades #beacuse wah wah i personally feel like they are not taking risks and should be #or in the opposite vibe #people screaming a bitchfit because wah wah insert artist here is not doing the same thing i really like them do #grow the fuck up #people change thats life babey

local bisexual is in WAY over his head with this one

#another shippy album cover for their spotify playlist haha <3 #i drew this while fucking exhausted out of my mind so it's not super on model and kinda reads weird from a distance #but i don't care that's not what art is about babey!! it's about the vibes. and i love them so i love this #kiki is exuding confidence she's learned from zy but i guarantee you. she is saying the stupidest least-sexy shit lmao #and ubon is still eating it up. he is. hopeless #think like. miles doing the shoulder 'hey' to gwen but if it worked LMAO #kiki #ubon #ubki #zaideaben #digital art #oc #original character #original art #character art #oc art

*slams my fists on a table* YOU ALREADY KNOW I GOTTA GO WITH FERDIE! Legit you have put so much work into the ship lore for Mana and Ferdie and it is just so good. They're narrative foils, your honor! (And special shoutout to Hilda because I'm a sucker for blue+pink ships)

YAAAAY TYSM :D!!!! i’m so pleased with how ferdimana has turned out, they bring me so much joy and comfort. and hildamana!! they don’t have as much lore as ferdimana, they’re just gay and in love, but that also makes me really happy 🥺 and fuck yes i also love blue/pink ships!!!

#hildamana doesn’t have the cotton candy vibe that hildamari has but it’s still pink and blue babey!!! #thank you so much amanda waaaaa #🐝👑 #💘👑 #tea time! with guests!

more quilt stuff (lmao sorry)

once again, see previous posts for better context <3

soo i mentioned in the last post that there was a potential to switch out my light grey 'white' for a cream, so heres the option:

[left is what i currently have, right is the cream]

im really not sureeee its worth it? its currently sewn into a silly lap blanket i made myself so i would have to dismantle that, and i feel like the light grey presents whiter, if you get my drift

HOWEVER i am wondering if these could make better shadow sides? honestly idk- my original plan was the go greyer for the shadow sides but maybe this could also work? heres my suggestion if i did go that way (again. see prev post to get a better view)

light grey as bright side, cream as upper shadow and the beige as the lower shadow

#i still think. the grey options look better but im still NOT vibing with the contrast ive got going on so #this could potentially be a lower contrast option? #nyxtalks #nyx sews #sewing #lighthouse painting quilt #i am NOT gonna shut up about this im so sorry <3 #fixation is in full force babey!

there’s not a single skin in the collection event that i like but do you think that will stop me from buying every single one of them? no x

#apex legends #that heirloom is MINE babey #i got my coins locked and loaded ready to go #but still wtf is that the skins aren’t my vibe AT all #ik they prob don’t think of it but something like the fight night collection event WOULDVE suited lobas vibe so much better as a drop #ramparts skin and matching gun skin is the only semi decent one in the drop like pLz I’m begging

thinks about elena meeting pelor then her equipping her cape of the mountebank for the first time like an hour later and its appearance transforming into the cape she saw him wearing

#but like. tiny babey version #it probably has details that make it more Hers but still that's the vibe. the energy. #i like the idea of it having the same straps over the shoulder n color scheme #then maybe partway down it shifts into the white and golden feathers of her wings #or maybe it's waist length while dormant and then the feathers fan out when she activates the spell #then there's always just full feathers i guess #any way this fuckn thing is gonna have some feathers #if i keep forgetting to use this gd aasimar ability to fly there's gonna be Some visual rep of those things

I think that ignoring how he is in general flash would be kind of good / gentle with kids …

#( tell me to stop posting ; ooc. ) #like even when he’s a fucking dick in high school ?? #he’d still be softer (awkward but softer) with kids #because he might be an asshole but he wants to be the encouraging / kind adult that he needed as a kid #now anyone around his own age? fair game babey !! but not little kids #there’s an edit of jamie t/artt that fits the vibes I’m thinking of but I’ve lost it to time

last song: in my life - the beatles. i've also had the my fair lady soundtrack on loop for the past like two days lol

favorite color: usually say yellow but honestly i've been vibing with like dusty mauve lately. love me some muted pinks

currently watching: the latest season of jet lag: the game has me so engrossed i finally signed up for nebula to get new episodes a week early. playing hide and seek across an entire country is my childhood dream and i am living it vicariously

relationship status: single. hopeless romantic. trying and failing to get over a guy

current obsession: oh god. can i admit that, despite never having given a single shit about the british royal family, i'm genuinely obsessed with this missing kate middleton thing. it's pure concentrated schadenfreude to see how spectacularly the royal PR is fucking it at every possible opportunity. they've reached like bialystock and bloom levels of backfiring

last thing you searched: "audition monologues" because i love putting things off to the last minute <3 (the audition is on MONDAY and i still cannot find a decent one)

this is probably one of my favorite outfits that i've ever put together! and it's all for one of my top five fav character designs, like... Ever!

rambles:

i would like to note that my dear beloved Jaime (@/awkwardalphajay here on our very own hellsite<3 check em out <3) helped out a Ton by sending inspiration photos and providing insightful commentary on details and vibes!

overall i wanted Sally to have fancy vibes! while i was originally going to have her fit very much based on her canon one, i wound up veering off course and - while still keeping some elements - mostly went for Medieval Entertainer and Her House insp! continuing with the day/night theme, and leaning heavily into the fire aspect - she's a literal star fallen to earth, after all!

it was suggested that she should have dragonscale used in the making of her clothes since she's, you know, kind of made of fire! and it was genius! I imagine she has extra fire charms on this fit and also the rest of her clothes, since dragonscale is hard to come by and is a finite resource once Gathered. she gets better at Not burning everything she wears over time, thankfully!

i think that, like Frank, she'd have One (1) Dagger. for emergencies! it's likely very ornate, and she'd hate to scuff up the gleaming blade. Probably. plus, why would she need it? she's got firepower, babey!

there isn't quite as much to say about this as usual... mostly because this one was more Vibes than strategic "ok this and this and this because this and also-" i was just! makin a fun outfit!

#i usually dont love what i make. but i love this <3 #its such a fun outfit!!! i think i'd wear this! #and the fire came out nicely #and i didnt struggle half as much with her points as i usually do #and AGH i just love her i love her i love her #if barnaby wasnt my absolute top fav. i think the spot would go to her #SHE'S SOOOOOOOO <3 #sorry. sorry. getting into my sally feels #scribble salad #wh fantasy au #i can so clearly picture her hunched over her notebook #just realized she'd never have to deal with trying to write/read in the darkness #bbg not only glows but in this au! she's her own candle! she's a walking flamethrower! #i imagine that she's in charge of the nightly campfire when the group is roughin it #her warm drinks & soups would never get cold... #i can picture wally handing over his Uneaten bowl just so that she can warm it up for him to enjoy again #how often does she accidentally catch things on fire i wonder...

NOW. We get into a section of binderary I like to call exciting new leathers. So what happened. Well, I read Moby Dick for book club, and frankly, there was a lot more bookbinding content in that book than i EVER would have guessed. Not that much, by volume, but any bookbinding is always a fun surprise! And one detail that SNAGGED me was the mention of a book bound in shark leather. Naturally, i immediately went on a quest to see if I could find 1) affordable and 2) ethically sourced shark leather, and never mind point two, because I struck out hard on one. So in a fit of self-pity, I bought a scattering of snake, fish, and ray leather, and then had to start thinking about how to use it.

I spent a while kind of paralyzed, but the first thing that REALLY caught my eye was this one white and gold snake hide (with purple tones here and there around the scales), and how it made me think of lyctoral robes, and that means it's time for another round of 'It's About The Bones 👌,' babey!! By the incredibly talented @sunderedstar, of course. Benefits of being friends with an incredible writer include the constant supply of gourmet food that's a pleasure to bind and practice with!

And since this fic had been one of my earliest test subjects for a k118 binding, I wanted to keep that going, and try one of my favorite fics in one of my favorite styles, testing out then new leathers in this format! And the book is a success, but the k118 thing, uh, didn't work. A fun feature of the snake leather is that its so thin I'd be afraid to even try paring it further. Which is great, that's the step I'm worst at! But now I wonder if that thinness means that paste isn't able to saturate the hide the way it would with goat, because the first time I opened this book, the spine IMMEDIATELY popped off the text block 🤣

I'm not mad at all, the book still works great, it's just got a breakaway spine now and can't do the k118 360 degree party trick. And the binding came together gorgeous! This is a typeset I'm still proud of, and I think i found the right fabric in my stash to match and contrast to the snake leather colors, and the embossed endpapers gave it a nice weight and elegance, all without losing that locked tomb flavor, but capturing a very different vibe than my prior bindings. All things told, I'm very pleased, this was so fun to work with!
