turning my attention each 5 minutes to some genre of music and going insane +++++ thinking how much i love this genre of music then getting unprompted to some songs from a totally different genre and the same things happens i just cannot stop loving things the circle goes on and on

#went into a music rabbit hole wanting to learn abt jethro tull #i wish micthesnare did a disco deep dive on this band i sadly didn't find too much info #NOT AS IN THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO INFO ON THIS WELL KNOWN BAND. #but i need the infos in a video format..... the disco deep dive type of video micthesnare does is perfect for that #anyway went bonkers lately over dad rock then because of relistening to queen other genre in rock and and and and #bangers bangers everywhere help me #so was in this realm for a while saw a cool video on of the clash album band that i haven't lsitened much but cool video and might listen to #them more. also video abt remain in lights i cannot believe how much i love talking heads #then sudden video on techno and <3 like! i was going to say “woah techno my true love” but i also go like this for everything else #not everything. but a lot of other genre #I WANT TO BE ABLE TO MAKE MUSIC AUUUGHHHH #ig waiting to save enough money to get a bass i could start trying to look into making music on da puter #idk im rambling im sorry who cares #tomtom_is_rambling #the video btw is “the ten rules of techno” i love how it's presented and i love music omg if music had a dick i would suck it so hard rn #man who has a problem

Charles is the type of guy who seems like he'd want to learn about his town and its history even if it's not relevant to him so must be hard when so much of it people refuse to talk about. he doesn't have a straight answer as to what Strex's whole deal is and what's with that scientist who's mentioned in so many historical buildings who looks uncannily like him

#Kevin eventually tells him about Strex but he tells him considerably less so about Carlos #and also what Kevin tells him about Strex doesnt line up with what the og db townsfolk tell him about Strex with what the nv townsfolk #tell him about Strex with what Lauren tells him about Strex #hes really having to fight to puzzle this out without crossing anyones boundaries or stepping on any toes #I love the idea of Lauren having been born during Strex and after the creation of the Joyous Congregation so her relationship with those #are those with someone who was born and raised in any other cult; I'm especially thinking of ones like Mormonism here #and her brainwashing- as opposed to Kevin's indoctrinated kind- is intrinsic #so post Strex being brought down is the first time she's ever been confronted with Maybe Strex Is Bad and it Doesnt Have To Be Like That #and idk. I think her and Charles talk about it. a little. as much as she's willing to open up #also her desert otherworld situation fucks me up. Carlos and Kevin didnt have to eat so why was she dehydrated and starving the whole time? #does tdow just retain the state youre in when you enter it? why would she have already been in that situation then? #''because Finknor's inconsistent'' shut up. play in this space with me. believe everything's intentional bc its more fun than believing #that theyre mistakes #wtnv #joyousposting #i need to relisten to some of Dana's talk about tdow to see if there's anything there that continues the Dana/Lauren parallels

Wore my Mistholme shirt out today and someone complimented my outfit. Now I get to guess if it was because they know the podcast or if they just liked the outfit over all. Hmmm

A Doom At Your Service AU for VP???

Pete is sick of everything - he's been an underground boxer most of his life (at the behest of his father's abuse), the one shot he had at leaving his old life behind had betrayed him, and now he's diagnosed with a brain tumor on his birthday.

Meanwhile, Vegas (Doom) is fueling his rage to rain hell on Earth. Everything he does isn't good enough or it's worse than he meant it to come out as (Creator made sure he was aware of that). He is sick of everyone in the world, begging for everything to go their own way. How can it when even his own abilities fail him so?

When Vegas hears a most unusual wish on his birthday, how can he not answer it?

When he sees how unusual this human is, how can he not be intrigued by him?

When he feels the pain and desire of hope residing in this human, how can he not fall in love with him?

Relistening to stolen century hurts every time. Idk what kind of magic griffin weaved into it, but no matter how many times I relisten it still hits just as hard. Like, huh, it's all about love, isn't it? It's about trying your best, about trying to protect your family, about fucking up and trying to fix it. It's about "I love you" and "I'm sorry" and "it'll be harder if you remember me" and "you die, but it's okay because you know they made it". It's about starting again and again, about questioning your morals, about doing your best, about learning to lean on people, about having that taken away from you. Its about feeling love and trust and pain without knowing their target. That's life, isn't it? I need to lie down.

so…eeeep!!! i’m relistening to milo’s playlist for the 294838382828th time and just noticed something really cute :,)

in the ‘tending to a feisty flirty werewolf’s injuries’ audio where milo says he has a cut on his lip and needs sweetheart to heal it for him (aka makeout passionately for the first time) it reminded me of the scene in indiana jones raiders of the lost ark where indy does the same thing to marion, and THEN I REMEMBERED that in the newish david audio where he’s watching alien with angel he mentions the indy movies and milo’s opinions on them etc, so does that mean milo fucking greer pulled a move from indiana fucking jones himself to rizz up sweetheart??? it’s just so cute to me idk :,) i love them lots and lots

Smthn else that's struck me on my more recent qt rereads (i.e. the last decade's worth, as an adult) which I don't think I fully grasped as a tween & teen, was the grace and /forgiveness/ at the heart of the series

Of course it's about love. Even idiot teen me could figure that much out. About love and its repercussions and salvific power and the ripples and waves it creates and Gen giving his heart on a toothpick to those around him. (And Rott recontextualizing this explicitly, as him being saved as well).

But I don't really think the forgiveness hit me before. I'm listening to koa at work rn, got to the scenes with Relius in the prison, and then in the infirmary. And it is then that it struck me. Eugenides forgives Relius, he pardons him, not because he wants to bribe him, or demands his service, but because Relius loves and serves Irene, and so does Gen, and so for the sake of his wife he forgives Relius, not so much for his inadvertent betrayal, but for Relius' interrogations when Gen lost his hand. (There is something to be said, too, of Gen, now in a position of power, understanding WHY Relius did what he did, it is distasteful, cruel even, but he did it to protect Attolia, just as Gen now does things he hates for her, and the country).

And it's not just Relius. Gen forgives Irene, we know this by the end of qoa, but also, he loves her, there's - as atypical and strange and their relationship may have started out - an expectation of forgiveness because it's within the bonds of love. There is no such expectation with Relius. And yet Gen forgives anyway. As he does with Dite, with Teleus, with Costis, with so so many throughout the books in various ways.

And it doesn't end with Gen! Gen's love and forgiveness of Irene is what allows Helen, and to a certain extent the MoW, to in their own time forgive Irene. It's what allows Irene to forgive herself, and in turn learn to forgive Relius and Teleus for their failures. Gen forgives Costis (albiet after baiting him, but he also forgives Costis accidentally spilling Gen's secrets to Baron Susa) and Costis in tat forgives Kamet's deception, as Kamet in turn forgives his. Gen forgives Pheris' accidental betrayal. Everyone forgives Gen his schemes and deceptions, too. And maybe Gen forgives himself for some of the things he's had to do as Attolis that he would otherwise not have wanted to do as Gen (acok is next, I'll need a relisten within this new thematic framework to decide. I think it's particularly important to his attitude toward Sophos there). Smthn smthn Gen also forgives the gods

Idk where I was going with this. Perhaps it's patently obvious to everyone Except Me because I'm An Idiot, but this is my what??? Dozenth reread? Probably more? And I'm still teasing out new threads. I probably will be for the rest of my life.

[ginalinettiofficial]

hey what’s up hello okay so i finally just finished s2 e52 of dndads (had a very crazy work week so was listening in bits and pieces) and here’s the thing is that im also currently relistening to the whole season and earlier in this week, the most recent episode i finished, was halt and catch fireball, and before that ya know was mrs. swallows oak garcia’s home for peculiar teens or whatever that one is called where they are just. at normal’s house and we got to actually get to know rebecca a little bit and i have got to say that i don’t know if i could’ve picked a more painful and wild older ep to listen to as a precursor to dood riddance i really don’t!!! literally half of the shit in dood riddance just circles back to that arc in the swallows oak garcia home and it’s CRAZY

like first of all. the red vines, which they called twizzlers the entirety of e52 which was MADDENING as a person who legit just finished e30/31 where the red vines were introduced

but then like. e31 is where taylor gets the anime sword from nick!!! that he loses in e52!!!

there were a few other things that i’ve forgotten in the half an hour since i finished the ep because my brain is a sieve on a good day and i’m just getting home from two back to back 13 hour shifts (with an extra 1hr10/20 each day for the commute) so the brain machine is so fucking broke rn

but mainly. i wasn’t loving e52 esp after dood left i just was not vibing with it, i feel like the vibes were off in the room in a way that translated into the ep for a bit there, but then anthony in those last like three minutes brought it back around and with the roll of rebecca??? after i legit JUST finished listening to the eps that feature her the most prominently and like truly showcase not only normal’s relationship w his mom but also, as is said several times in e30/31 and their teen talks, just how similar normal IS to his mom and how he really clearly is a total momma’s boy and very much so seemed to be a kid who sought solace with his mom more than anyone else in his family and just. having legit JUST reestablished that in my own, made the end of e52 DEVASTATING for me in a way that idk if it was for other ppl??? idk haven’t checked the fandom yet im very disconnected this season but just.

like

i think that okay so we have ten parents it could’ve been, right? and five of those are the kiddads, and none of us want to see them die, so in that moment when anthony was telling us what was gonna happen, obviously my instinct was like “oh god don’t do this don’t do terry jr again but truly permanent” and then my next instinct was that it would be potentially even MORE awful if it was scary’s dad because finally there he is and that’s ALL she wants and for willy to take that moment from her would be INSANE and then (mind you this was my thought process over the course of literally 10 seconds, my brain is ping ponging in my head and has been since the second i got in the car to head home i need to sleep) and THEN my next thought was, oh god, but how fucked up would it be if it were marco??? oh god, how fucked up would it be if it were cassandra?!?!?!?! and then it was time for the roll and truly in those brief seconds basically my brain flicked through every potential victim and said “oh god THAT one would be the WORST”, EXCEPT for veronica and rebecca, and it made the hit of it being rebecca who was low down on my instinctual list to think of but then the second he said her name i was immediately ricocheted back to earlier in the week when i was listening to halt and catch fireball and mrs. swallows oak garcias home and how many emotions i had about normal and his mom just relistening to those episodes and then the fact that i DIDNT think to worry about her just

all of that combined to make that a CRITICAL HIT FOR ME OKAY like i am SO fucked up over this truly that was WILD and i applaud anthony burch for it and now am excited for the finale even though ive spent the last three eps just dreading it for several reasons but now im excited and devastated and i love that

anyways. that was word vomit i just NEEDED to get this out because the connections between those two episodes really will not stop hitting me in the head and i need to impart that onto SOMEONE. if u read this. ur a real one. rip rebecca swallows oak garcia you were a legend and i am so sad about u

[fromjannah]

idk if u still wanna talk abt it but the bu fandom has like 5 people in it in total so I just thought I'd ask: is there anything in the spinoff you'd want to change? anything they could've done better? oh and were you happy w the characterisations? cause i saw some posts saying that some of the characterisations were off

I ALWAYS WANT TO TALK ABOUT UNBURIED!!

FUCK DO NOTTT GET ME STARTED. me and @sa-heelies were talking about this (and i was thinking of making a post about it) but we both agree that secrets in the dark would've worked MUCH better as a prequel. the characterization of bruce is kind of fucked and feels very removed from his unburied self and we feel like it would've made sense for that to be Before the events of unburied (egypt, etc). obviously there are flaws in this -- barbara is the most glaring one, flass, eddie knowing batman is bruce, etc. however in general my biggest qualm is bruce's characterization. if we had gotten some more explanation from him about it i could've been satiated but in general it just felt soo lifeless compared to the beautiful heart of unburied. he wanted to pay attention to the health of the rogues more!!!!!!! the way he was kind of swinging for arkham felt Wrong to me. but i digress.

also no fucking mention of egypt is insane. criminal even. absolutely criminal. why did it read like eddie and bruce were going through a breakup. let's be real here

in general, i liked a lot of it, i thought it was very fun -- eddie characterization was very entertaining, nadira was. a lot but i liked her (and also Sweet Jesus Christ), loved eddie's friendships with the rogues, all the bits with babs were great. i'd need to do a relisten to really settle down on everything though.

[stilesssolo]

Okay.. let’s hear it! Initial thoughts of the new album!

Ugh sorry for the delay on this. I listened to the (first) album when it dropped at midnight, finished it and saw her say “double album, 15 more songs!!” went “that’s nice. I’m going to bed” fully intending to spend most of today listening and relistening to fully take it in, but then there was a crisis at work and I suddenly had a shitton to do in a very little amount of time which was not a conducive environment to fully digest these *very* dense songs. I still haven’t sat down and done nothing but listen to half the songs on the anthology, so. I am never more jealous of west coast time zoners than during new music drops. 😂

I immediately logged off the internet when I heard it had leaked Wednesday so I truly went into this blind. My initial thoughts are… well… okay! I don’t dislike it. But I don’t love it, you know? The songs are very dense but I still don’t think it’s her best writing (and I’m a Bruce Springsteen girlie; I love a cryptic lyrically dense album). There are a whole bunch of songs that I really enjoy and some REALLY good lyrics. But I remember hearing Cardigan or YOYOK for the first time and how that felt and I just don’t get that on anything here. I also cannot acknowledge the implications of how many goddamn songs are about Matty Healy and how in love with him she was without risking a mental breakdown!!! The idea that CARDIGAN was written about him… I cannot do this… take me back to when we thought The 1 was for sure about Harry Styles. I was present for the Gillette rain show “I’m the happiest I’ve ever been” psychotic break and I STILL was not prepared for the amount of psycho behavior on this album regarding the rat man!!!!

I think I have two main problems with this album. 1: it is too goddamn long. I am not one to complain about getting more content but I feel like a lot of these songs are just saying the same thing and not doing it in a way unique enough to justify having both of them. Like I think we could have EASILY trimmed a lot of fat and gotten these both into one 20-ish track album that would have read better. I feel like a lot of this has to do with the social media culture now of more, more, more, always racing towards the next thing— like how a day after we got 1989 TV the swifties were clamoring for rep TV. Like we just got 5 new songs!!! Slow down!!! I would have preferred quality over quantity lol and this album very much felt like quantity, quantity, quantity.

And then 2: I miss when she used to really push herself to try different things and to get better at her craft. Not that I want her to be attacked and get backlash, but her insane levels of fame have made her so untouchable that no one can say anything remotely constructive without being crucified and I feel like it eliminates some of the drive she has to push herself to be better and write better (hello Speak Now and Red!!!). I saw Rolling Stone gave this album a perfect 100 score like???? Hello???? The album is not bad, but to grade it as perfection compared to others? Over Red? Over Folklore? Over 1989??? Let’s be real. And I feel like this album has a lot of “well it’s good enough” moments where I’m like… but is it good enough? Could we have worked to make this better? I feel like she needs new collaborators too. She does great work with Jack and Aaron but I feel like they know each other too well and it’s getting to the point where they’re not editing or pushing her as much as they should be. A lot of the songwriting here just felt complacent. Get Liz Rose back in the room I am begging!!!!!

Now that I’ve typed all that out I feel like I am being increasingly harsh, but idk. It’s a fine album. There are some songs I enjoy and I’m sure it’s gonna grow on me more as I listen and really digest, but it doesn’t really have any super stand out moments to me right now. I saw a tweet saying this album is not to top the charts, not to draw in new fans, this is for the swifties who know and care about Taylor’s lore and want to listen and know what was going on during this period of her life, and she just needed to get it out there and say it so she can move on. And I do enjoy the lore, don’t get me wrong, but I kinda hope that’s the case and the next album is a clean slate, because… other than the lore, there’s nothing really new or interesting here, sonically, lyrically, etc. I really hope her next album she takes a big risk and does something different. I also feel like she needs a BREAK. Like I don’t want any new music for the entire year of 2025. Go recharge and take a break and come back to us with your best work, queen. I feel like the rerecords and the constant churning out of new music and content is just watering down her undeniable talent.

I wanted to like this a lot more than I did, but you know. C’est la vie. I never was a big poetry girlie anyways, and I’ve seen some people say they love the album (and to them I say I’m happy for you I clap I cheer and i’m gonna let you rock!!) but for me… idk. We’ll see how I feel in a week. But throughout the day today I kept feeling the temptation to put Chappell Roan back on, so… I think that sort of sums up my initial feelings on the whole thing. 😂

#like idk girl did i really need to hear you sing about how much you love matty healy *that* many times??? i dont think i did #anyways i am curious to hear your (and anyone else’s) thought on the album 😂 #my sister and my roommate agree with my opinion but we all share a brain so they dont count #also even though i dont love this album I STILL LOVE YOU TAYLOR!!!! Swiftie till the day I die!!!!! #we’re all allowed to flop a little bit sometimes… as a treat!!!! #taylor swift #asks #answered #ceebogs

Fluffy Fluff

Jake Lockley X reader

Idk I just wanted to write this, I got nothing else for you.

Jake is supposed to be helping you with your hobby, but he keeps getting distracted. ft. my fav podcast, which you should def check out

only warning is maybe anxiety and depression and illusions to smut.

*************

"Jakey, this is never going to work if you don't pay attention." You pretended to glare at him.

"I am paying attention, Mi Vida, prometo."

"Really." You arch your eyebrow at your boyfriend sitting across the couch from you. He was holding your yarn and was supposed to be feeding it to you as you crocheted. "Cause it kinda seems you are busy staring at my tits." You give him a pointed look, expecting him to admit it, but he played innocent.

He feigned indignance, gasping with his hand on his chest. "Mi amor! I would never! I respect women, I would never objectify you like that! I was simply listening to the podcast." Jake was overly defensive.

Now you knew that was a damn lie. The podcast was Astonishing Legends, and you knew he had no interest in the story of James Dean. His car, yes, which is why you picked this episode instead of, say, the Dyotlov Pass episode, but right now the focus was on Dean's career, not the Spyder.

"Guapo, you promised to help me!" Pausing the podcast, you pouted at him. A few months ago, Steven had gently suggested they find you a hobby, something to help you cope when you were sad, allow you to create something. You had picked crocheting back up again; your high school hobby. Your favorite pastime when you were stressed was listening to a weird podcast and crocheting. Jake didn't understand how a podcast about ghosts, black eyed kids, and murder helped you relax, but so be it. You enjoy relistening to your favorite episodes, and Jake had politely asked you to show you some. You knew he had no interest in your weird fascination, so it was sweet he was willing to listen.

The ritual went like this. You either recognized the stress, anxiety, or sadness, or one of the boys did. They would ask if you wanted to rant, wanted to try to work out a solution, or needed a distraction. They all had their own ways to distract you, Jake's was to set up the living room for your craft. He'd get the yarn, turn up the lights so you could see, light a candle and ask if you wanted music, a podcast, or to talk. Jake would listen to the podcast, letting you pause to explain things like astral projection or what the call back to a previous episode was. He didn't care about the subject matter, but he cared about you, so he tried to follow along.

If you wanted to talk, he'd let you talk about whatever you wanted. He had gotten very well acquainted with Star Wars during the Kenobi series after asking why you were crying ten minutes into the midnight premier. You shushed him, and two hours latter, after the episodes ended, Jake swore he could write a thesis on Anakin's fall. You loved him dearly for being so invested in your interests. He tried to insert a comment or two or an observation, just to show he was paying attention. Marc was happy to add his own thoughts on Anakin's story, despite Jake absolutely not asking, but he loved both of you and if Marc wanted to turn into a bit nerd every so often, he'd encourage it. Marc so rarely got passionate about things.

"Lo siento, Carino." Jake did not sound sincere as his eyes roamed your body again. "I promise to do better." He dramatically crossed his heart and began working on threading your yarn to you.

Despite your best efforts, you couldn't help but be turned on by the fact he couldn't keep his eyes off you.

You set your yarn down in front of you, crawling across the couch where he leaned over to meet you halfway. "You know, mi amor, maybe there's a few other ways you could distract me today..." Your face hovered close to his, his eyes on your lips.

"Si, Se me ocurren unos cuantos" He muttered, already planning all the way's he could take your mind off things.

Your lips were so close to his, he didn't dare kiss you; it was your move.

You spoke slow, tantalizing him "But first-" A fast kiss before you plot back to your crocheting. "Scott and Forrest are about to talk about how Sir Alec Guiness predicted James Dean's death, so we might as well finish out the episode, now get to work Cielo" You act like you hadn't just been teasing him, cheerfully looping through that yarn.

Jake sighed overly dramatic "Yes, ma'am." He carefully gave you the exact amount of yarn you needed; this wasn't his first rodeo.

"And Jakey?" You, and only you, were allowed to call him Jakey

"Yes, mi sol?" He was once against distracted by your chest in the tight shirt.

You notice, and smile. He was only human after all. "Make sure Marc is listening, he's going to wanna hear this story."

"And why is that?"

"Sir Alec Guiness is Obi-Wan Kenobi"

Jake smiled. Of course he was.

If you're into weird history, random mysteries, ghosts, weird shit, GO LISTEN TO ASTONISHING LEGANDS!!! It's a great podcast and Scott and Forrest have created a very lovely space to interact and theorize and have fun. The facebook group is fantastic and they put a lot of effort into their shows. The James Dean episode is one of my favs, I've relistened to it multiple times. I love James Dean and have a short story on him, which you can read here I wouldn't call it a fanfiction, but it was based off a dream i had and i just needed to write it out.

Anyway, hope you liked some soft Jakey

I thought it was a fun touch to have the reader call him Spanish nicknames <3

Canonically, Marc Spector likes Star Wars at least on a baseline level so I'm headcanoning that he's secretly a nerd.
