idk why this matters to me but in the last few months they've been acknowledging so many things I never ever thought they would. pinof and the touching. the phude multiple times. dapc slime (ok they had merch to sell for that one but still)
no but actually. phil literally said 'i thought we weren't acknowledging it' about the phude and now they just bring it up all the time.
pinof reacts... i still can't believe we're in a post pinof-reacts universe. how did that happen. i was changed permanently--like something shuffled in my dna when i got the notif for pinof reacts 1. this is not a physical reaction but a chemical one that cannot be undone. for something that was so... sacred. and integral. to their existence and history. pinof wasn't generally talked about unless it was pinof time. and even then it was 'it'll be up soon' or 'we just posted it' and then Never talked about outside of that. especially not the first one! we freak out about the We Know You Know in the newsletter but it's Always been like that with pinof 1. so to see them--new (& natural 🥺) hair for them both, in a house they bought and built together, in the first few months of giving the gaming channel a second chance--reflect on how it all began? absolutely devastating. and to lean into moments and discuss them in new ways. in territory previously not breached! the 'they're toUching'?!?!? the '11 hour fuck session'!?!? the '£9000 champagne'?!?!? like hey we're not supposed to talk about that, dan and phil might see!! shhh!! but they're the ones saying it!! absolutely wild.
in a way, it had to happen. especially with where we're at now (them literally selling merch of them holding hands). in order for them to move beyond that... mindset? i guess? that a lot of fans had, they had to defang it. i really see it as one of the biggest walls they've broken down in the way they communicate with us. the 'hey. it's okay. we've seen it. it's not a big deal. we will absolutely make fun of you for it though. but we're good.'
i'm just really curious whose idea it was. (lbr it was probably phil given dans not a react kinda guy. but i'd be lying if i said i didn't want to be in the room where it happened when they talked about actually doing it or not, and what it would mean) (big ad revenue thats for sure 🤣 get it kings)
i will never be able to get phil's 'they touched' out of my head and at this point i wouldn't want to. it's absolutely earned. and i guess it makes me a masochist to enjoy the psychic damage it inflicts on me, but such is life i suppose.
the crafts mention really surprised me! i had contemplated a few different scenarios in how they'd go about it, and i'll be honest i feel like they could've committed to the bit a little more but they're forgiven. like what about glitchy interstitials! cuts to the merch website. found footage inserted between sections! i recognize they don't want to 'scare' their usual audience wirh sudden cuts to intense/graphic content but my immersionnn. absolutely shattered by 'oh we have new merch now btw'. cmon boys you love to lie to us. say theres merch up but you dont know where it came from. just that we should buy it 👀 or idk, something clever. and i recognize i may sound like a spoilt brat bc i just got a 14 minute long masterpiece of an unexpected dapc revival, but my immersion. i mean i already bought the merch before they shilled it anyways so it didn't influence me regardless 🤣
ultimately we really are in a new era. even beyond just the revival. i think they're really finding their stride--not only in their content (evidenced by a semi-regular schedule) but also creatively, in doing what they want to do, how they want to do it, and truly not giving that much of a fuck anymore. and i'm really happy for them. phil talked a bit about this in his 'rating my icons' video, where he's kind of decided he doesn't care what people on twitter think, and how it's been good for him, and i think we're seeing that reflected in not only his content, but also the gaming channel. they play what they want. they say what they want. and it's just fun. dan going on the record to say he's really enjoying it makes me so happy to hear, because literally december 2022 he believed he'd disappear after WAD. and now, instead, he gets to play games and make stupid jokes and smile and laugh multiple times a week, and he's really happy about it. he gets to be silly and goofy and crude without having to Stress about it. i keep saying it but they're so settled now. and as someone who's followed them through big changes and turbulent times, getting to see them happy after everything... it brings a lot of hope. and i know theyre millionaires. but there's something to looking at someone you fell in love with 15 years ago the same then as you do now. but instead of it being something scary, something you have to hide, something that feels like it can consume you and everything you have--it gets to be something beautiful. and regular. and embraced. you've read this far you get to listen to me wax poetic about them.
we've been thoroughly boiled and maybe, just maybe, it's warming our hearts too.

alright top 5 brocedes moments
hey pu... it's the idea that 18 yr old lewis went out of his way to go on nico's website (freshly made btw...) and reminded him of their dream to be teammates again (in f1) like woah... mind shattering
this one from abu dhabi 2016... idk i am just like. obseeesssed with it. maybe it's cuz i just finished 2014 in my look thru of german nico articles where they talk about how gracious (or "Soft") of a loser nico was but idk it's just interesting... veeeery interesting
2008 bahrain okay i have a lot to say about this one: around this time they actually werent that close... sure they were friends but not really the "best friends since childhood" kind of relationship that was being touted by the media... more along of the lines of colleagues who've both shared and now achieved their dream of being f1.. not to say they didn't hang out (nico lewis and adrian sutil all went on a vacation tgt to thailand in 2007) but let's just say lewis had a favorite german and it (probably) wasn't nico and nico had a favorite brit and it (probably) wasn't lewis. it was, as nico puts it, "superficial" (ok i dont have a source for this one on hand but he said it!!! i swear) ANYWAYS.... it's an interesting video bc they're not as close they used to be but they still slip into their (What i would presume) old dynamic especially with their roughhousing/wrestling EXCEPT THEY'RE NOT THE BOYS THEY USED TO BE... it's different now... they cant have their youth and naivete (about being bffs forever in the same team in f1 all that) but they haven't quite realized it yet... the dream hasn't quite crashed down on them
lewis literally lying about not remembering when he first met nico... "I remember the first time I looked at the girls. I remember when I met my girlfriend, the first time I had sex.... But I never actually think about the first time I met Nico. I don't remember things like that." (x)
and of course... the most iconic video of them all

because i'm bored: here's what i think about the characters of ride the cyclone!
ocean o'connell rosenberg:
definitely was a huge snob. in my language, we call those kind of people "maldita" HAHAHAH
she sounds so much like a high school bully that it's hilarious... but also, i feel like she was bullied in elem and was consequently also mean in highschool? idk she gives me that energy
DEFINITELY the kind of person to love legally blonde and mean girls and just projected it onto her persona LMAOO
though she's probably really very much a big softie once she developed at the end of the musical, but still hides it behind her bitchy and rude exterior
she looks like she would take someone's phone and squint whenever someone shows her a meme, like the way a mother would
noel gruber:
mean gay. that's it.
it's canon that whenever he's nervous or uncomfortable, he picks on his nail polish! and i love that! he's just like me fr!
i think the thing he really wanted was just a life outside of his simple one when he was alive... and i think monique gibeau was his drag persona
that said: NOEL DRAG QUEEN AAHHHH
feels like he would be more reserved because he's trying to look normal because of his mom yk, so he probably didn't have many friends outside of the choir (who weren't very close to begin with, judging from the way they talk in the beginning of the musical)
but besides that, he wants to be FLAMBOYANT and FEMININE and i love him
mischa bachinski:
iconic. stole boxes of communion wine for his eight year old cousin because of birthday. im in love with him.
sorry to noel, but he's the REAL most romantic boy in town. nothing compares to the way he sings about talia as if he couldn't live without her. get yourself a man like mischa.
probably loves ridiculous memes. would laugh at them for so long and show everyone in the choir
i think he doesn't actually watch horror movies but watches analysis videos on youtube about them like i do.
when he actually watches horror movies, he squirms around and does all of these weird movements and noises to cope with the fear 😭 not outright scream though, he's too emasculated /j
ricky potts:
he is an oc writer just like me. i love him for that.
was most likely into warrior cats as a kid, obviously marvel comics and star trek too. no way he wasn't.
he mooost likely didn't want to be in the choir in the first place but ocean forced him in it, based off his reaction to ocean trying to get people to like her again after singing about social darwinism 😭
that said, he's just like me fr... using escapism as a coping mechanism for his lonelines... i love you ricky and and your sexy cat ladies from zolar
and actually, i think he's one of the most underrated characters apart from constance which is such a SHAME...
he's so nerdy and JUST LIKE ME FR!!!
i think that before his hands degenerated, he was an artist. not a good one, but enough for people to recognize it!
jane doe:
CREEPYPASTA ENJOYER I CAN SMELL IT OFF OF HER.
creepy... i love her...
and i think that she's really good at crocheting, to add onto the whole doll aesthetic. makes tiny sweaters for ricky's cats, probably made a phone case for constance made out of wool... no matter how inconvenient it was
i think that noel would've painted her nails black too because she deserves it!!!
anyway, her and ricky are the "the bad bitch i got thanks to my autism" meme definitely. going both ways
anyway her actor's voice always sounds like an opera singers it's so impressive! that's why i believe that she can actually sing opera if they ask her to
definitely knows obscure facts about medieval torture and lions... just because!
FOORNICATION UNDER CONSENT OF THE KING!!!!
constance blackwood:
HER SONGS MAKE ME FEEL SO MANY THINGS IT'S CRAZY
the unique lesson of "there's no shame in loving my small town" ...my god you never hear that in musicals EVER
it's always "GET ME OUT OF HERE PLEASE!!!!" not the lesson that's in sugar cloud
that said, god... the fact that she doesn't like being called nice because it means that no one truly got close enough to her to know her for her goofiness... her weird thoughts, and her silly mannerisms and she had no one to vent to </3
hell, even her so called BEST FRIEND is mean to her!!!
but i feel like they'd still be close, despite that yk? best friends always stick together and as ocean develops more i think that they'd get closer until they're literally the only two who knows the other better than themselves
OH and i think that constance would've loved writing fanfic... she just has that kinda energy yk? she and noel would bond over writing and they'd talk about what they write and constance would hesitate because she doesn't want to admit that she writes gay fanfiction on ao3 😭🙏

MCU: *releases Koinu no Carnival in GOTG 3* "omg Miku is canon in MCU!!" "Vocaloid is canon in MCU!!!!"
Tumblr media
I'm sobbing and so does Chopin
I understand that Miku is the most famous Vocaloid among all of them (probably the icon) but mAN- I don't know how should I feel when a song that was made for Classicaloid gets to be called as the Vocaloid song from GOTG3, I mean it's technically is a Vocaloid song since it features vocal synthesizer voices but damn, only 0.01% knew it originates from an anime 😭 I can't really argue with that.
Tumblr media
IDK WHETHER I SHOULD BE HAPPY THAT KOINU NO CARNIVAL IS GETTING ATTENTION - I am happy that Ehamic's music is getting more popular and more people know about the music (like oh my god finally some recognition), but also a part of me feels frustrated that it will be remembered as the "Vocaloid song from GOTG3", again. I kind of have mixed feelings for it.
Not to mention that it's not just Miku singing in that song, there are 50 Vocaloids included - I can't believe someone dissected the voices and recognizes them!
youtube
Are you a classical music/composer enjoyer and been wanting to watch an anime about it?
No? Well you're not the first one. 😔
Yes? Well, I'M OFFERING YOU GUYS FREE FOOD!
Tumblr media
Anyways, if you like a slice of life anime of the historical composers that can transform into magical boys/girls (such as Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin, Lizst, Schubert, Tchaikovsky, Badarzewska, etc) + classical music remixes I suggest you to watch Classicaloid 😳 That "slice of life" can be very random and chaotic, but it explains their character along the series. It'll make you "what the fuck is going on" too. They have from comedic, serious, fun to sad moments.
Tumblr media
Q = How many episodes and seasons?
It has 2 seasons, 25 episodes each! 50 episodes in total. Each composers are able to wield their powers called Musik and they have unique abilities!
If you want to see someone react to the first few episodes to get a glimpse on what it looks like - there is this video (they're the ones who introduced me to this anime):
youtube
You can learn something from each of the classical composers along the anime - such as:
Beethoven puts exactly 60 coffee beans for his perfect coffee, and he is really, really, REALLY passionate
Mozart is left handed and a cheeky dude
Dvorak loves trains
Tchaikovsky loves mushrooms
yada yada yada the Lizst goes on
Tumblr media
Q: Where can I find a community of it?
We're a very small community and in desperate to find Classicaloid fans to talk about the series and share our thoughts 😭 The only way to discover fans is from tags tbh.
BUT, perhaps you're a Classicaloid fan who is looking to be in a Discord server, you may DM me and I'll invite you! Most of us here speaks English <3
Peace! Anyways, artwork coming in soon, I'm (kind of) free from my college projects 😳

method acting asks!!!
eek. been so down in the dumps w/ writing lately and feel increasingly guilty that I haven't updated a chapter since like new year's eve?? that being said, I have TRIED to write the chapter - end up scratching the dumpster fire i've written bc its simultaneously not good enough for the people who wait for chapters but also bc ive put so much work into the story that I don't want it to be bad. i'm trying to get my BAD WRITING out of my system to get back to the good so I may deliver only the best! that being said, i have mapped out the rest of the story and put the chapter names of the ten (I am sorry) chapters left on the masterlist! (free to ur interpretation pookies)
Tumblr media
I have never watched the maze runner - so I will take your word for it + let people discourse on who minho is. that being said, I have seen that one video of the cast on zoom like reading the script and all of them keep laughing which seems very on brand for like all of them
Tumblr media
https://www.pinterest/com/pin/45739752460395001/ (for those who wanted to see it!) anyways jeankasa wedding is one of the next parts that im lookign sO FOWARD TO WRITE. I have a few chapters that I ruminate on for a while and literally think about all the time - see: award show etiquette, my love mine all mine, and the beach - and the next two that I can't stop thinking about is the jeankasa chapter and the style chapter!
Tumblr media
I actually listed pride and predjudice as a romcom that eren and y/n would do bc actually they just have to serve and be iconic in everything too. AND JEAN AS MR BINGLEY STOP IT I LOVE IT SO MUCH. (also y/n keeps the statue of eren's head that they make for that one scene in p&p @bsenpai and I have discussed this at length)
Tumblr media
THIS ACTUALLY GAVE ME SUCH AN INTERESTING THOUGHT. I had originally named the earlier chapter about eren and y/n distancing "sick with sadness" bc I was like yeah this is eren starting his this is me trying campaign like that's his song. on the same vein, I always thought that y/n was more of a mirrorball - changing herself to fit what seemed best or what people wanted. but now that I think about it, the two of them have kind of flipped. I think post s3 like documentary era, eren is more mirrorball and y/n is more this is me trying??? IDK but this hit and this is me trying is ALSO very connie coded
Tumblr media
correct.
Tumblr media
I love that this story is as chronically on everyone's mind as it is on mine bc I literally saw that clip and it was my IMMEDIATE thought. the fact that she kisses him and then tries to rub it off before he goes up is LITEARLLY so cute and he's so cute when he's like "is there lipstick on my nose 😊 ok I will just ignore it" like IT IS LITERALLY THEM. (I love awards show season guys ive got another award show cooking for you in the upcoming chapters) (and again, @bsenpai and I literally said this exactly literally the same day as the golden globes we STAY expanding the lore)

Hi!! I really like your blog and it’s great to find an active Hobi blog. I just got into BTS this past month and was wondering if you had recommendations or favorite Jhope (and overall BTS) content/videos to check out for a complete beginner! Even though I’ve casually listened to BTS since 2015/2016, I didn’t follow them or even know all their names/faces well... until recently I watched a couple of Jhope’s stages and was like damnnn, I need to know him and the whole group more!! Iconic stages, funny videos, interesting interviews, whatever you enjoy :) Thank you!
thank u so much thats very sweet 🥹<33 im very honored that youve chosen to ask me this because this is a biiig question n i shall do my best🫡 ok well firstly, i think it would be insane to not start off with hobipalooza
his lollapalooza set can be watched in full here, which u might have already seen, but for an added bonus u can listen to his albums hope world + jack in the box, THEN watch his lolla set to really get a feel for how he brings his songs to life while performing them. his music is great but for me his true stardom lies in his performance and stage presence and hobipalooza will tell u everything u need to know about jhope as a performer 🥹🤩
just some of his many iconic solo performances:
more + arson at the 2022 mnet asian music awards (+ future)
the only live performance hes done of on the street 🥲
also the dynamite + butter performance from that same day just cus u can see the pure joy in his face and the love he has for performing 🫂 despite them both being songs that he originally had less than like 10 seconds of lines in each
his performance and interview on iu's palette my beloved
all of his just dance performances are amazing and consistent but heres a good fancam
as for bts group performances i think its best to look at their older songs as he has not had many lines in their recent releases :/ some that i really love:
mic drop is kind of known as his song, heres their snl performance, most recent performance of it, and another favorite of mine hehe
outro: tear specifically his verse at the end (around the 4 minute mark)
chicken noodle soup at the 2021 muster, its jhopes song but they performed it all together
boy meets evil + blood sweat & tears at 2016 mama
idk im drawing a blank but honestly any of their old concerts or fanmeets/musters are really great. you can find a lot of them here
some dance focused videos since hes the main dancer 🫶
any of his old hope on the street videos that i miss so dearly. theyre just videos of him freestyling for a while and he does it so effortlessly and its rly satisfying to watch. 2020, 2021, with jimin, with jungkook
the iconic no more dream dance break 🙇
this random dance performance 3j did i use to watch this on a monthly basis
another 3j dance video of the megan thee stallion butter remix
i feel like its kinda obvious but i also want to recommend his music videos since theyre all rly amazing but some of my favs are more, daydream, chicken noodle soup, and on the street
ok im gonna stop cus this is getting long and i dont want to overwhelm u but im also definitely forgetting stuff,, everyone else feel free to add stuff in the replies!! anyway i hope this helps!

Idk if there already is an 🦿anon but if not here i am
We need some dark shit with no happy ending. I was thinking like bots are visiting earth and find out their charge died from cancer but before passing they made a little goodbye video for bots especially their guardian.
I thought it would look better as a scenario but if its easier for you the please do hcs
For the bots i really wanted to read our grumpy medic, OP and wheeljack
Youre an amazing writer idk how are you doing this
Keep up the amazing work❤
I sort of did this for Jackie a while back, you can find that post here, so I won't be writing it again. I tried to give this a darker ending, and not a kind of hopeful one like I usually would. Also thank you very much and hello leg anon :D
~Optimus Prime~
You had been diagnosed a few months after the autobots had left earth and you really wanted to tell Optimus, but you had no way of doing so. You had been given approximately a year to live, and you held out hope for seeing him until your very last moments.
When Optimus returned to earth after over two and half years on Cybertron, he was contacted by Fowler, who gave him a memory stick, telling Optimus you had asked him to give it to him. Optimus of course wondered why you couldn’t just give it to him yourself, but the reason was about to become very clear to him.
He tried to call you, but the number apparently was not in use anymore, which he just explained away with you changing your number.
When he couldn’t contact you, he decided to see what was on the memory stick. He plugged it into the old base computer, and a window popped up with a loading icon.
You appeared on screen, and the video started playing.
“Hey Optimus!” you said with a bit of a forcefully chipper demeanor. “I wonder if you’ll ever actually see this, or if you’ll come back before… Well I guess I should explain why I’m making this first” your smile started to fade as you continued talking to the camera. “I was diagnosed with MBC. That stands for metastatic breast cancer and to be totally honest, I’m going to die from it and probably quite soon”
Optimus paused the video. He was well aware this wasn’t a joke, you wouldn’t do that, you weren’t that kind of person, but he also couldn’t see how this could be real. He decided to continue the video.
“I decided to film this for you, and maybe for myself too, to make sense of this whole dying thing. It doesn’t feel real, I mean I can feel my body basically decaying, but it’s like I still haven’t accepted what that means. I wanted to tell you I miss you and I hope to see you before I’m gone. I also want to be honest with you, I hated you for a while after my diagnosis, because you weren’t here and I felt so damn alone” you turned away from the camera a bit and wiped your eyes. 
Optimus was filled with grief and confusion. He was also angry at himself, for not leaving you a way to contact him. There was a small pause before you continued.
“Anyway I’ve come to terms with that I guess, I just still don’t understand how this whole thing can have such bad timing. If I was going to die anyway, I’d rather it had been with you and the rest of the team here” you started having a hard time with keeping yourself together.
“There are so many things I wanted to tell you, but now that I’m actually doing this, not a single one comes to mind. I guess it’s just time for me to say goodbye” you waved at the camera and the video stopped on you with a small smile on your face and eyes closed with some tears brimming in your eyes.
That was the last Optimus saw of you. You were dead now and he would never see you again.
Optimus hadn’t even noticed how weak the whole situation had made him feel, before he was suddenly on his knees on the floor, holding onto the edge of the computer screen. He felt weak and his spark felt like it was about to explode out of his chest. Above all he felt empty, he felt like a part of him had been ripped away, someone he had held so dear, his friend, was gone and there was nothing that could change that.
~Ratchet~
You didn’t really know how to start the video. You didn’t really feel like explaining the whole thing to someone again. So you were just going to make it short and to the point.
“Hey Ratch. I’m just gonna keep this short. I’m dying and I don’t have much time left, so I just wanted to tell you some things. First of all, you’ll always be dear to me, no matter where I end up or what happens to me. Second of all, I know you’re gonna feel guilty about not being here with me in my last moments, but you shouldn’t. No one knows when shit like this is gonna happen so, there’s no reason for you to feel bad about it. I mean yeah, dying sucks, but there’s nothing I can do about it. So, goodbye Ratchet, take care of yourself”
The video ended and the screen went black. Ratchet was left feeling all kinds of things, but mostly he felt broken, like a piece of him had broken into a million smaller pieces that were impossible to pick up and put back together again. He had lost friends before, but it  was due to war, there had been a reason for their deaths. For you, it was some illness that you had no chance of winning against, you had nothing to fight against, no war to win. 
There was no one else around while Ratchet watched the video, so there was no one to see him completely break down over it. The tears were streaming down his face and he was sobbing, trying to keep his voice down, covering his mouth with his hand, so nobody would hear him. He didn’t want anyone seeing him like this, he didn’t want their pity or to hear how sorry they were about his loss. That wouldn’t bring you back.
Sure you had been friends with the other team members too, but your relationship with Ratchet had been different, you were like family to each other. Your memory would live on with him, long after you were gone and he would always remember you.

THEY POSTJAILED MY GAY ASS
but woag okay tell me everything? one thing that gets me out of Find Stuff Mode™ is explaining it all to someone so tell me what you've found and maybe getting it out of your system will help u focus on the homework :p
NOOOOO TUMBLR FREE MY MAN THIS IS SO NOT THE TIME CANT YOU SEE IM SUFFERING I NEE MY EMOTIONAL SUPPORT MUTUAL-
okay but literally explaining it feels so stupid bc its like. like in my head its a cool concept but on paper it feels dumb?? idk but like, originally this started bc i was trying to see if there was an archive of old crankthatfrank videos out there, which in turn got me thinking about that Era of like. 2010s emo trinity bandom tumblr yk? bc while i came in very much at the tail end of that era, i still experienced a lot of it firsthand and its kind of The Thing that got me really into music and i though it'd be interesting to look back on now that im considerably more mature
and now not im sitting here looking at this vague outline ig for this hypothetical video, and so im thinking it'll start off exploring why and how the fandom blew up at the time. like where the term came from, why it was specifically those bands and how tumblr and youtube in particular kinda helped to foster the community. and then id wanna talk about the community itself and the way fans interacted with the bands, common jokes/memes, popular figures/youtubers, shit like that which would lead to the discussion of all the horrible shit going on at the time that i (for a variety of reasons) just didnt see when i was in the community at the time
but anyways i have a collection of links now to a bunch of like. Iconic bandom tumblr posts (i spent at least an hour trying to find the post where the emo trinity term was coined and then verifying that there werent any earlier uses of it and shit) AND i made a youtube playlist of every single crankthatfrank i could find bc thats what started this mess and bc his content is like. THE prime example of everything i wanna talk about with this. his videos perfectly encapsulate the era imo yk? i also have a growing list of articles/videos to check out focusing on the bands' growing popularity and audiences and shit, and i have a list of other youtubers who seemed to be popular with the scene that i didnt personally watch but whose names i remember hearing at the time

Sorry I’m gonna reference a rlly old post here, but what’s going on in the I created a monster Ching animation. Is that Debbie in it?
Sharing the video referenced for those who don't know about it.
Anyway yeah that's Debbie, though the framing is kind of bluh, I'd like to go back and redo that some time. I'd also like to go back and edit the outdoors parts, because the landscape in the bg is not accurate to where he's supposed to be.
Debbie is not wearing her horns or her iconic dragon hoodie because she is meant to be asleep, awoken by a looming host Ching who has a habit of hanging around while people sleep, and generally being a silent observer in many situations. Debbie is, naturally, creeped out by this. But, she'd need to rationalize it because: mimes are weird, they don't always get the social etiquette & normalities of the living.
Ching turns off the light and leaves her to sleep, and walks away, catches himself in the mirror, and briefly remarks on the host that he wears. He, as stated before, loves his host. So whatever is going through his mind in that moment, he's clearly enjoying it.
In the latter half, he is resting against the wall of a house outside. Because his host is a plant person, his energy diminishes easily in the night, so he rests outside in wait for the sun to bring him energy and wake him up. Or, he could have been up to non-host related things in the night, idk. That's not really relevant to the animation though.
Really the whole animation is just him being a weird little creep. Host Ching is like that. Sometimes he's really silly and goofy, sometimes he's a bit uptight and punctual, sometimes he's a lot more quiet, slow, brooding. The shifts in personality just come from the conflict between his true self and the host.

I actually like dua lipa's songs, I think she makes hits, bops, even, but I know EXACTLY what people are responding to when they call her a persistent flop. she's got the voice, she's got the songs, but her presence -- in her shows, in her music videos -- is the presence of an influencer. she's way to self conscious. I think it's possible she's just really introverted and not out there, and she's very nonphysical. she's got an uncanny editorial magazine ability to strike a pose and naturally make these very pleasing lines but one thing that's obvious when she's actually moving in her music videos is that she is thinking wayyyy too hard about what she looks like and she can't go full send into her dancing, which she frankly just doesn't have the natural sensibility for anyway. she went for fun party girl disco so she has to look trendy and dirty and hot and loose, but really her physicality should have had her in this dignified club queen disco. they kind of get it by putting this kind of classy metropolitan vibe, like an architecture magazine from the 80s, but the visuals become sterile imo. put her in ridiculous dresses and furs and have her flick her wrist & eyebrow like cruella deville, that's clearly her spot. I don't think I've ever seen a popstar's branding play into their weaknesses like hers. also she's a bad lip syncer. I'm not some insufferable pedant that goes "she can't daaaaance she doesn't have the charismaaaaaa to be in the pop pantheon" because you can be in pop without being a pop icon. but it's clear her team is going for pop icon and you actually do need the dancing and the charisma and the visuals for that lol and she has this very tall, vintage dignified poise and you could've kept all the leotards and the same songs but really it shouldn't have been disco rat it should've been middle aged legacy beauty with a long cigarette holder. shes got her own seat at the club and she's served awful cocktails that she only has a taste for kind of vibe. she's clearly a woman who was born old as fuck, she doesn't have the young fun and flirty thing going on at all. I can tell by looking at her face that an expression of superior disdain belongs there. idk you can tell by how someone dances when they've learned the choreo that they just have no natural instinct for dancing and that's her, I just don't think that should be such a big deal EXCEPT you are billing yourself as pop icon disco revival so making dance tracks when you can't dance is kind of crazy. you can still play into that though -- that's where that persona of superiority comes in, where you lord over the dance floor, making the hits, and you never descend to the floor. your moves are flicking people away. you get me

AHHHHH IM GOING TO SKATING CAMP TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM SO EXCITED!!!!
it feels im 8 yrs old again and it's the last day of school and tomorrow im going to montenegro for 3 months. like i am so excited you guys!!!
im getting the train at 6am tomorrow and lucien is meeting me there. his plan was for me to go today and spend the night at his parents' but they don't want me at their house cos im not family lol. he said im gonna meet them nevertheless. but they're old money. like actually old western european conservative money. and ive never met people like that before.
im very excited to meet his parents bc i need to know his origin story! like why is he the way he is??? apparently he had a very strict upbringing. and his parents are mega rich. and i feel like now the term "old money" has been tied to the whole aesthetic trend on tiktok, so it kinda lost its original meaning. but his parents are basically, yeah... conservative, protestant, very secretive life style, probably brought their children up with like super strict table manners like what fork is used for what, etc.
they're very cold too. like i was brought up with more eastern values. and even though my family isn't super traditional in that sense, i was still taught that hospitality is important and that you have to bring a gift every time you go to someone's house and stuff like that. whereas conservative western mentality isn't really like that. and his parents are in their 80s so yeah, they're a whole different breed i feel.
have you guys ever met like actual old money people? what was that like? and i don't mean just "rich people who aren't flashy". but like actual generational wealth people.
also panda has a theory that lucien's parents are in a cult lol. like mormons or jehovah's witnesses or sth.
when lucien was trying to convince his parents to let me stay over he was like "yeah, she's anti-alcohol and she doesn't drink and she's very very religious and modest". lolllll
speaking of being religious, church today was so good! my church crush handed me the music sheet and looked into my eyes and i said thank you and that was the highlight of my day lol. i still don't know his name. but it's fun, you know? to have a little crush i look forward to seeing every sunday. and honestly i don't really want to get to know him because he comes off as very arrogant and intellectual and snobby and i don't think we'd vibe. like at some point he sat down and man-spread and went on his phone. likeeeee. but then i see that after every service he goes up to all the icons to kiss them and lights candles and every time he does the cross thing he bows down to touch the ground (which i never do btw). but yeah im enjoying having this little crush a lot and i want it to stay that way.
maybe he's a reddit orthodox kind of guy, now that i think about it...? like i watched one video about orthodoxy cos i wanted to see who bishop irinei was and now my youtube recommended is full of these orthodox chad memes like "little dark age" that kind of stuff yknow. maybe my crush is the kind of guy who watches these things. cos like what else would a guy my age be doing at a church choir? likeeee
anyway, yeah! super stoked for tomorrow! idk if i'll post much about skating camp cos im gonna be hanging out with lucien and skating 24/7. but i promise i'll post a pic or two! <3

💚💚💚 GUMI MY BELOVED 💚💚💚
gumi is one of my favorite vocaloids idk she just holds a special place in my heart bc even after my original vocaloid phase i continued listening to her english songs echo and copycat… she has such a great voice and range an absolute icon who i think deserves more attention !!
anyways yes !! i had so much fun creating my version of gumi!!! my version of gumi is sarcastic, cynical and yet fun loving and kind hearted. she’s a strong character who struggles with her mental health but would do anything to help those she cares about.
i gave her a more alternative style with some grungy y2k clothes. i included some allusions to some of my favorite gumi songs! if u look closely her beaded bracelets say “king” and “copycat”. i included distorted versions of her as a background sort of alluding to “ten faced”, a song in which she has multiple personalities, and also “echo” referencing the glitch aesthetic of the music video.
pinterest ref used, reblogs greatly appreciated !!!

All the Jackass and CKY guys and whether or not I think I’d get along with them because I’m bored:
Johnny Knoxville:
I think we’d get along really well but probably not be super close. Like, his personality is way too outgoing and charming for us to not click, and I’d enjoy being around him, but I don’t think we’d be close enough to hang out alone together or to confide in each other about deep stuff. The thing we’d bond over most is music. Basically we’d be friends and make each other laugh and probably occasionally geek out over the Ramones together but he wouldn’t be considered one of my best friends by any sense of the word. If anything I’d probably be scared of getting a crush on him and I’d try to keep my distance lmfao. I’d follow him and like most of his Instagram posts and occasionally leave a vague but funny comment which he would only occasionally reply to.
Steve-O:
Maybe. He’s always seemed very nice and fun to be around but I think hanging out around early 2000s Steve-O would have tired me out too much and hanging out around current Steve-O would annoy me a little bit cuz he can come off as kind of condescending in some of his podcast episodes. People who know him seem to really like him though so maybe he’s really cool. Idk we’d have the type of relationship where we get along just fine when we’re around each other and occasionally crack jokes together or talk about Motley Crue, but we wouldn’t go out of our way to see each other or interact with each other. I’d follow him on Instagram but wouldn’t leave likes on his posts all that often.
Chris Pontius:
Personally I think Chris and I would be besties but maybe that’s just wishful thinking. We’d be the type of close friends where we don’t really talk about our feelings with each other or get super personal but we’re always SO happy to see each other and are super affectionate and always make each other laugh. There would be tons of photos of the two of us hugging cuz that’s what we’d do every time we saw each other. I can see us hanging out one-on-one to do something laid back like go bowling or go to an arcade, and we’d at least be close enough to spark dating rumors. We would follow each other on Instagram and would like each other’s posts all the time and always leave stupid or sweet comments.
Preston Lacy:
Preston is ICONIC but for some reason I don’t know if we’d be all that close. He seems very sweet and I think we’d get along just fine and have a professional relationship but I can’t see us being close friends or making plans together or even really having all that much to talk about. We’d follow each other on Instagram but would rarely like each other’s posts.
Wee Man:
Me and Wee Man would 100% get along so well. He’s so chill and fun to be around and I can see us hanging out together and just having a good type and hyping each other up during stunts. I feel like we’d have a secret handshake too. We’d follow each other on Instagram and like all of each other’s stuff and he’d comment the 🤙 emoji on most of my posts for seemingly no reason.
Dave England:
I adore Dave and he seems like such a sweetheart so I do think we’d get along great. I’d definitely try to make plans with him from time to time and he does a lot of fun videos with some of the guys on his YouTube channel so maybe him and I would do one of those together. We’d probably confide in each other from time to time and I’d go to him to talk a lot more than I’d go to most of the other guys. Honestly I’d probably try to hook up with him but to be fair he’s very pretty so can you blame me? Anyway we’d follow each other on Instagram and like each other’s stuff all the time. I feel like he wouldn’t comment on most of my stuff but I’d comment on all of his stuff like an annoying stalker.
Danger Ehren:
#1 BFF RIGHT HERE!! Me and Ehren would be close as FUCK and I’d definitely be the type to defend him when the other guys get a little too mean with him. I’d probably hang out with him a lot outside of filming Jackass and I can really see us being super close and me going to him to talk about my problems. He’s cute as a button man how could I resist him?? We’d follow each other on EVERYTHING and blow up each other’s posts with stupid comments.
Ryan Dunn:
Yes! I think I’d be close with Bam’s little group in general and Ryan was so chill and friendly and everyone who knew him always has nice things to say so I think him and I would get along great and he’d be a really good friend. I’d be hanging out with the group a lot so by default I’d be hanging out with him.
Bam Margera:
Oh boy…this one’s a doozy. Listen, I’m not even gonna try to sugarcoat this one: Bam and I would be SO toxic to each other. I’ve seen how Bam interacts with people who don’t bend to his ego and he can be very dickish and immature. If he tried pulling any of his crap on me, I’d definitely push back or retaliate, and then it would just keep going from there. Bam also has always had a thing against plus sized women, so as a plus sized woman I imagine he’d have something to say. We’d constantly be arguing and insulting each other and pushing each others buttons and half the time I’d wonder why I even hang out in his group when he’s such a dick but I’d just like hanging out with the other guys too much to stop coming around. He’d pull mean pranks on me, I’d call him a shrimp dicked little brat, he’d call me fat, we’d start throwing shit at each other, it would be a whole big thing. The tension would be kinda sexy though, can’t lie. Also I feel like the fact that I don’t act like a yes man and bow down and kiss his feet over everything would actually kind of be reassuring to him cuz he could come to me for opinions and know I’m not kissing his ass. We’d follow each other on Instagram but I think I would have stopped liking his posts in 2019 when shit got really weird for a while.
Dico:
I flip flop on this one. The side of me that’s realistic knows that him and I would probably get along just fine. We have very similar senses of humor and personality types, so unless I ended up being one of the people Dico hated for no reason, I think I’d get along with him well and we’d have plenty of laughs and maybe even do bits together in public or act alongside each other in haggard and minghags. The side of me that craves enemies to lovers however wants to believe that he’d randomly hate me for no reason and we’d have a secret relationship fueled by hatred and disdain. As soon as he puts that stupid Rut Ru wig on I’d start having a little crush on him. If him and I got along I like to think he’d keep in touch with me after leaving the spotlight.
Raab Himself:
Probably. He seems super lighthearted and funny and sweet so I think we’d get along really well and always be laughing about something. Even when he was, as he described himself, “annoying” as a younger teen I think I would have gotten along with him just fine. His shit fascination would have grossed me out a bit though. Idk how we’d interact on social media but I think I’d be invited on for an episode of the bathroom break podcast.
Rake Yohn:
I pray to god that him and I would be SUPER close if I knew him cuz Rake is so fucking cool and smart that it kills me. I’d wanna hear him rant about smart guy shit and I’d love to crack jokes with him and go on little adventures with him. He’s also really cute and I’d probably try to date him more than any other guy on this list. I’d follow him and like all of his stuff while leaving vaguely flirty comments (if he wasn’t married).
Brandon Novak:
Back in the day? Probably not. I know for a FACT he would have gotten on my nerves and would have tried to steal my wallet while I slept. Current Novak though? I think so. He seems really friendly and chill now. He’s super active on Instagram so we’d follow each other and poke fun about how out of control he used to be.
Joe Frantz:
😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏 (that means I would try to jump his bones at every available opportunity and would like every single one of his Instagram posts without fail). Nah but fr tho I think we’d get along great, he likes the same bands as me and has a cool comic book collection so I’d wanna be his friend so bad.

Hiii, I always wanted to ask how you got into video editing
i mean i've always loved movies, since i was little and i think i was always a bit more interested in what was going on behind the camera rather than in front of it. i do hope i can one day be a proper film editor. what got me into trying my own hand at this amateur mix and matching was actually lana del rey lmao. i remember back in 2011 seeing the music video for video games and blue jeans for the first time and being so struck by how DIY she was at the time. i've never seen someone make that kind of music video, she just found these clips, "glued" them together and put some music over it. it was so simple and charming. then i saw other people make these types of videos clearly inspired by hers, like idk how famous mermaid motel youtube channel is amongst people on here but she's kind of an icon. someone left a comment on my youtube channel once saying "this channel is to me what mermaid motel is to the coquette community" and it made me laugh, but it's also definitely an honor lmao. anyways i thought you know what i really want to make these as well so i started collecting clips i could find on youtube of old movies, commercials, home videos, super 8 films etc. like people would upload footage of 60s las vegas or sunset strip so i used things like that, cutting and pasting, and i put lana's music over it, especially her unreleased stuff. i'm still proud of some of the ones i made. i wish i could find them but i guess they got lost over the years. i think i did upload one or two on here, if i manage to find them i'll reblog. and then after a while i got out of it just because i used to make them on windows movie maker and that software is a fucking nightmare. and then like 3 years ago i think i got a new laptop and thought ykw let's try again. i remember i watched blade for the first time and let me tell you that movie is a cinematic adrenaline rush and i was itching to make a vampire edit so i did and i've been making these edits ever since. this site introduced me to the concept of fancams so i'm having fun with that too. i hope improvement can be seen. also thank you so much for this question, i love talking as you can see. <3333
