#have a backbone

[midnightsslut]

the reason why bejeweled feels very calvin to me still is how it parallels high infidelity. in general, the 3am tracks seem to explore a darker, more explicit side of a storyline that’s already present, if only in the form of subtext (like we don’t have a direct parallel for wcs, but we do have two songs exploring formative past relationships vaguely sexually, and wcs is the darker example), on the main album, and bejeweled/high infidelity is perhaps the best example of this. its similarities to tolerate it, which is about something she felt ‘at one point in her life,’ back this up. HOWEVER, I do think it’s exploring a potential outcome of the then-current state of her relationship with joe. like, this is how things could go - I have forgotten that I have a man in the past, and I can do it again.

#it is not fully joe and anyone who comes to me with bUt ToLeRaTe It Is ClEaRlY a JoE sOnG #no it’s not #it’s literally just not #I don’t see that dynamic at all #‘you’re so much older and wiser’ #they weren’t having the greatest time in fall 2020 but it’s not bc she was watching him sleep #are there shades of how she felt yeah okay maybe but I honestly don’t even think she saw it that way at the time #the parts about putting someone on a pedestal and using your best colors to paint their portrait was always interesting though #but I digress #bejeweled #tolerate it #high infidelity #midnights #ttpd #I actually had an argument about tolerate it in a tiktok comment section once (not my wisest moment) and this person was like ‘oh but I wasn #talking about specific people in her personal life!!!! just her music’ the deflection #like if you want to draw parallels between her songs go right ahead #but #own up to it #have a backbone #sorry I’m sleepy #anyway my beloved muricans are asleep and my dash is quiet now

Absolutely absurd that people give Arthur and John the benefit of the doubt by labeling them complex characters (which they are), but won't extend that grace to INCREDIBLY complex characters like Abigail, Molly, and Mary.

Abigail is strictly a nag, Molly is a rat, and Mary is a selfish woman who used Arthur. Meanwhile, John is seen as a deadbeat who grew from that into a family man. Arthur is a murderer, but he's also kind and generous.

Stop only extending grace to your male favs when the red dead women are just as complex as them.

#half the complaints abt the women don't even have any backbone too😭 #I swear if anyone interprets this as a John/arthur hate post I may lose my mind #YOU CAN BE CRITICAL OF THEM AND DTILL LIKE THEM #abigail marston #abigail roberts #molly o'shea #mary linton #mary gillis #arthur morgan #john marston #rdr2 #red dead redemption 2

oh so the EIGHTH can just use his cavalier as a juice box whenever he wants, but suddenly everyone has an issue when I, ianthe tridentarius,—

#literally chapter 34 of gtn when ianthe gives her villain monologue #she actually makes a good point about using cavaliers #and she actually didn’t take corona so bonus points for actually having something of a backbone there #the locked tomb #gideon the ninth #cw ianthe #op #bestof

“Oh Lord, Oh Lord, what have I done? I've fallen in love with a man on the run. Oh Lord, Oh Lord, I'm begging you please—Don't take that sinner from me.

Oh Lord, Oh Lord, what do I do? I've fallen for someone who's nothing like you. He's raised on the edge of the devil's backbone. Oh, I just wanna take him home. I just want to take him home.

Oh Lord, Oh Lord, he's somewhere between a hangman's knot, and three mouths to feed. There wasn't a wrong or a right he could choose. He did what he had to do. Oh, he did what he had to do.

Don't care if he's guilty. Don't care if he's not. He's good and he's bad and he's all that I've got. Oh Lord, Oh Lord, I'm begging you please—Don't take that sinner from me.

Oh, don’t take that sinner from me.”

why the hell is christian music so devoid of lyricism. like i KNOW you guys can do better ive listened to sufjan stevens. ive heard that one jars of clay song. theres so much ground you could cover thematically and tonally and lyrically but like. it feels like a genuine oddity to find a song EXPLICITLY about christianity that sounds better than 'overproduced amateur who decided their first pass at the lyrics was good enough to sing to millions of people and also god'

#spitblaze says things #christianity mention #is this another inexplicable side effect of the hedgemony. #ppl think that its inherently better for being christian and therefore dont need any more work #come on now. #if this was a genuine act of worship maybe you'd put a little backbone into it. im not asking for much guys #just something thats interesting to listen to #no wonder evangelicals have to brainwash their kids into thinking all secular media is evil #maybe if you made better christian media you wouldnt need to do that in the first place. have u considered that (half joking)

My recent Hobbit hyperfixation has culminated in me writing a Hobbit/LOTR college au of questionable quality. Whether I continue it remains to be seen, but for now enjoy whatever this is.

Edit: there are lil offshoots to this now! 1 2 3 4 5

Also if you like this pls reblog it, it helps way more than likes! I'm pretty sure I turned reblogs back on

#au where thorin is a history professor and the fellowship + kili fili ori and the bardlings are all students #if i do continue this it will feature eventual bagginsheild with lit professor bilbo #and gandalf will be the old man stoner who somehow ended up the backbone of the entire university and meddles where he doesn’t belong #i have Ideas if you couldn't tell #the hobbit #lotr #the fellowship of the ring #thorin oakenshield #fili and kili #fíli #kíli #tauriel #legolas #aragorn #college au #lotr college au #any thoughts are greatly appreciated #the hobbit/lotr college au #i make shit sometimes

I don’t need a jealous Syd. What I need is Carmy constantly picking the restaurant (Sydney) over Claire. If they stay together after the fridgecident until Claire realizes that maybe the restaurant (Sydney) is really what he cares about and maybe she forced herself on a person who she thought she knew but really doesn’t know at all. It might be a nasty breakup because Carmy doesn’t realize why giving all of his focus and attention to the restaurant (Sydney) is a problem and he’s just trying to please the both of them and if Claire doesn’t get that then maybe she should leave him alone. Claire is like this is not about the restaurant. It’s never been about the restaurant. It’s always been about Sydney….

#Hehehehe🤭🤭🤭 #I really don’t see anything messy and dramatic like this happening #but all s2 was quite messy and dramatic #also after this that’s when Carmen starts to blatantly realize it’s always been Sydney #sydcarmy #the Bear s3 delusions #like if we gonna have to sit with Claire again give her a backbone PLEASE #make her realize she was wrong for inserting herself into a situationship #yall stay trying to make Sydney this scorned woman when she just tryna do her job #sydney adamu #carmy berzatto #Claire no last name

Since the freedom caucus successfully bullied the RNC into nominating a far-right candidate, why don't the moderate Republicans just vote for Jeffries?

I need everyone to understand there ARE no moderate Republicans. They will go down with the flaming MAGA lunatic ship rather than work with Democrats ever, on anything. That's just how it is. They may play moderate on cable news, but that's the truth.

#hirosensei #ask #politics for ts #again: not gonna answer a ton of politics asks #though i recognize the clown show is once more in honk honk session #but. yeah. moderate republicans are a myth #they will pretend to be moderate in interviews and then vote party-line/trumpian/MAGA #that's who they ARE #they're scared stiff of getting primaried or attacked by trump or whatever else #they have no moral backbone and they will not do the obvious thing because they can't #for any number of reasons #the end

My other main problem with the discussion is that if your main experience with MMOs is Final Fantasy 14 from within the last few years, you have genuinely no idea what a Real Tank / Healer dynamic is actually like. No harm to you, but you just genuinely don’t.

Both Tank and Healer are devastatingly gutted roles in FFXIV with as little to do as possible and are a mockery of their true potential.

#vivi original #FFXIV healers have the biggest egos ever I dont understand it #even after the hardest endgame content was cleared with 0 healers they are like #healers are the BACKBONE OF A PARTY #damn i wish
