just seen ballad of songbirds and snakes and omgomgomg

my brain is thinking the thonks

BALLAD OF SONGBIRDS AND SNAKES SPOILERS AHEAD

The entire movie, characters are calling Lucy Grey "songbird". All the time. "Keep an eye on your little songbird" "Catch that songbird" etc etc, but Lucy Grey's weapon of choice is snakes.

Snow's weapon of choice is manipulation or, literally against Sejanus, word of mouth. He uses the jabberjays/mockingjays the way the Capitol built them, to spy on their enemies. He is Capitol through and through. He uses the drones to save Lucy Grey, he cheats with the rat poison and lies to the Gamemaker's face about why he's there when he gives the snakes Lucy Grey's smell. Bar literally singing he is the songbird.

Lucy Grey is the snake. The last one expected to survive. The singer, the Corey, the smartest one in the arena and the one who puts it all together when Snow lies to her face about who he has killed. She knows she's next, she knows he killed Sejanus, not literally but he was responsible. She puts two and two together and slithers away into the bushes and trees of District 12.

The obvious bit is that Snow is the snake for lying and cheating, in the colloquial meaning of someone being a snake, and Lucy Grey is the songbird because of her singing the songs of the revolution and rebellion.

But they're both deeper than that. They're both and songbird and both the snake.

Anyway, 10/10 movie, minimal notes but those notes were more wishes than much else

You guys are lucky it’s not 2013 anymore cause if it were I’d probably be making one of those powerpoint tumblr post things about why you should watch RRR.

#or most likely i'd be reblogging the ones made by people who know more about the making of the film and the cultural background #but seriously go watch RRR if you can #it's one of those movies that's so good it's almost upsetting #like it makes all the blockbusters action movies i've watched before look so dull in comparison #also the songs #also ram charan #my only regret about this film is that i didn't watch it on a big screen

does anyone have like an anti aesthetic. like something you look at and can recognize as a complete fashion/interior design/artistic movement and understand it but it makes you shudder seeing it. i am not talking like “its morally bad” “its poorly structured” like just sheerly devoid of joy for you actually invites a repulse response.

#also if it wasnt clear this isnt ‘its bad its lazy’ there is a level of like #completion consistancy i am thinking for with this #personally i really do not enjoy the like. vintage chic long red nails fur coats noir esque aesthetic HOWEVER 💥💥💥 #i can recognize that it is put together it is Intentional #i feel like a lot of people are going to say minimalism on this so LET ME SAY 🫰☝️ i recognize that minimalism is Considered an aesthetic #but i *PERSONALLY* do not consider it an aesthetic i consider it the void of one #it is a lapse in aesthetic or personality in the same way a silence in a song is still technically a ‘beat’ but no music is played #however the importance of Space or Breath in design is more akin to a purposeful silence in music #because that silence matters in the same way rhythm and breath in design do #so i guess minimalism is more comparable to like. white noise. the sound of a fan #very little effort and there is a comfort in it i suppose but its not. A Design. okay #TO ME 🤫 #if minimalism has one hater its me if minimalism has no haters im dead

something quiet, gentle, and romantic for today. I’ve been assured it’s suggestive enough for @goodomensafterdark ‘s smut war, so enjoy this soft interlude with suggestive tummy ❤️

#good omens #good omens after dark #goad #goad smut war #aziraphale #crowley #aziracrow #ineffable husbands #quiet gentle and romantic #kinda smut light #an amuse bouche if you will #I think normal people call that foreplay #also sorry about french lyrics but french songs have some of the most dramatic pining

The fact that the Boston transit system has been a garbage fire for so long that our mascot is a sad little man who is literally stranded on the train until the end of time due to a fare increase. Charlie's desiccated corpse has been riding this train since the 1940s and everyone just sort of rolls with it it this point

#boston #history #music #I also love that the songs ends with Charlie's wife throwing a sandwich through the window every day #instead of the train fare #because she was probably better off single

fionna and cake drawings before and after watching the episodes so far. it’s nostalgic and somehow cathartic and poignant and relatable and—it just started

#i’m part of the demographic where i was a kid when adventure time started and now watching fionna and cake as an adult makes me emotional #because did they keep us in mind when writing fionna and her attitude towards life #the dissatisfaction #the hoping for something more #something more magical than this dreary life filled with working to live and living to work #it’s so reflective of how life feels for me and perhaps many of us #and also Simon’s episode was so sad but so well thought out #exploring his feelings after the events of the adventure time finale is something I’m glad we get to see #there were already so many layers to his character in AT but now it feels like we get to dive deeper #I also felt emotional hearing Rebecca Sugar singing and writing a song that encapsulates his feelings so well #😭 it’s been awhile seeing her work exist alongside these characters #and all of these emotions get stronger because I remember AT being the one to inspire me to be a storyboard artist #when I was younger I used to follow many of the board artists here in tumblr and would get so inspired by them #to create simple but powerful boards that can capture the feelings of characters so well #Rebecca Sugar’s songs for the AT characters inspired me so much too #I’m sorry this is long I’m just feeling so many things experiencing all of this again as an adult #my art #fanart #adventure time #fionna and cake #fionna the human #cake the cat #simon petrikov
