#his eyes #......

Really Miles ??? In front of your boyfriend ?

#hate that Alex wasn't paying attention 🥲 #what I would give to see a whole Alex stage-persona overreaction to this #(and perhaps see a glint of truth behind it somewhere in his eyes 👀)

Miles’ reaction after this :

#exactly

[paperlovesadness]

people who don't follow chess I promise this post is really funny

#astonished by this man's sense of humour anytime I've seen or heard his comments anywhere

Miles and Alex just being in love during The Meeting Place

#love how Zach in the back is just all 'mmm 😌 performing music~ this is the life' #& the writers & main performers of said music are up front just completely focused on sneaking in ways for their faces to touch #as closely as possible as often as possible

my favorite thing paul does in interviews is when he mentions a beatles song and then starts singing it to make sure people know it, like he'll say "we were performing she loves you, you know 'she loves you yeah yeah yeah...'" like you literally don't have to do that. everyone knows that song. you are paul mccartney

anyway the actual point of fandom is to inspire each other. reading each other's fics and admiring each other's art and saying wow i love this and i feel something and i want to invoke this in other people, i want to write a sentence that feels like a meteor shower, i want to paint a kiss with such tenderness it makes you ache, i want to create something that someone else somewhere will see it and think oh, i need to do that too, right now. i am embracing being a corny cunt on main to say inspiring each other is one of the things humanity is best at and one of the things fandom is built for and i think that's beautiful

I had an interview with a local paper this week about this rock snake I started on the longest street of a nearby city (where I work) because it's bringing people so much joy:

I said something during the interview that the interviewer seemed really shocked by, so in case it's important for anyone else to hear: When asked about the rock snake and some scavenger hunts that I've hosted for adults, I said -

"We don't stop enjoying the things we liked as kids; they just stop being offered to us. And when you're a kid, fun things like art projects and scavenger hunts are always brought to you, so you're not taught to make a habit of seeking them out as and adult."

She said "Wow yeah... life is so stressful... and you don't think to... wow."

So if anyone else needs direct permission to be a whimsical adult child today, I hereby grant it to everyone. ❤️

thinking about the fact that Alex said in the Track by Track interview for TBH+C that ballads such as "The Ultracheese" are "his default" and "where he feels most comfortable" and how Alex, if left to his own devices, would churn out song after song so full of melancholy and yearning it'd shatter all our hearts into a gazillion pieces - this is why he needs Jamie and Nick and Matt and Miles - so they reach out their hands to him and go "there is a whole world out there" and he turns around and writes the Arabellas and Pretty Visitors and She Looks Like Funs and Sculptures of Anything Goes and She Does The Woods of his career

[Track by Track Interview]

#ah #thank you OP for putting into words what I felt back when I heard him say that #it's somehow just so insanely touching to me that that is his default #Think he mentioned The Dream Synopsis in that same context? #and that & the Ultracheese are some of my all time favorites in general - they just shatter and move me #both lyrically and melodically #and I love that they came from such a true; vulnerable; close-to-the-core place within him #it all makes so much sense

John Lennon, George Harrison, and The Interviewer bullying Paul McCartney

#this is basically babygirlifying behaviour #they were posessed by cute aggression & called him baby #that's what it is #in my mind #and i get it

[paperlovesadness]

Obsessed with how every time it cuts to Alex he’s looking away with his eyes half closed, he’s so bashful.

#bashful little bundle of kitten fluff #(yeah; I've been possesed by the babygirlifying demon again)
