#but singing man. ugh

[zincbot]

an unfortunate fact about me is i just want to be singing all the time

#i can not express how important singing is to me #it's an autism thing (singing is literally my top 1 stim forever. the need to do it gets crazy esp when i'm having an overwhelming day) #it's a family thing (connects me to my dad and grandfather) #it's a I WORKED ON THIS thing. like i'm not a good singer BUT I'M NOT BAD EITHER. #and i've never been trained the only reason i'm not bad is because i 'practice' literally every single fucking day #practice is a strong word cause i don't know what i'm doing. but i sure do sing #its a trans thing. #i just. if i could live in a world where nobody minded my noise. and my throat didn't get sore. i don't think i wld ever stop #i wanna make music really bad but i have no ideas for melodies and beats ever all my songs are unfinished and scraps #but i've never really connected to any part of making music other than singing anyway rip #my dream is to get paid to cover things all day long maybe lol #i do love doing va stuff i hope i can get back to doing that soon #but singing man. ugh #i want to do karaoke with my friends more than life

i think the reason why im so drawn to spirit tracks and pkmn scarvi is that having the legendary/princess as a companion rather than a goal that marks the games completion makes me feel satisfied the way i would after helping a friend

my brother always teases me about how I still havent finished botw after almost 7 years bc "id rather be out picking flowers" which i wont say is untrue. and yes i know Zeldas been holding off ganon for 100 years, yes i can get some sort of idea what her relationship with link was like by recalling memories and going through her diary. ive always loved botw for its unique storytelling and setting which makes it stand out, because it lets you get to know who you're saving.

but because theyre memories, it only works if theres something for the player to investigate that already happened. its retroactive (but effective nonetheless)

on the other hand, spirit tracks does something similar but instead of having the player try to piece together memories and interpret them as a spectator, you actually have an opportunity to get to know zelda yourself by talking to her and working together. besides making it a gameplay mechanic, giving the player control over how they interact with zelda makes it so much more personable.

and I find that making the goal feel personal instead of an obligation gives me more of a reason to work towards it. I know what kind of person botw zelda was but as the player, shes still very much a stranger to me. but spirit tracks zelda? thats my friend!!!! she invited me to go to the beach after we get her body back!!! i dont want to whip her to make her move faster thats mean :(

you know how hostage negotiators are trained to introduce themselves and get to know the person theyre negotiating with because its harder to hurt someone when you know what their favorite food is? its kinda like that, because it feels like im helping a friend than being told or led to do smth

and although i havent played scarvi myself, i feel an attachment to koraidon and miraidon even just watching playthrough clips because its like!! thats my weird scaly dog!! it loves sandwiches and we're friends!!! you know!!!!!!

#i dont normally write long posts like this but i think ive been trying to put this into words for a long time and it finally happened #my cloth mother spirit tracks zelda and my wire mother lttp zelda #ACTUALLY ANOTHER THING when i was a kid i always felt guilty when i had to catch the legendary at the end of the game #because to me it was like 'i know none of this is real but if i capture you and have you under my thumb am i robbing the world of something #normal thoughts for a 10 year old to have #when i talked to my brother abt this he was like 'i mean yeah the point is to dunk on the NPCs what were you expecting' and i mean i think #i get that its supposed to feel rewarding because the legendary is THE reward. but it doesnt feel right and i dislike he feeling of pushing #others down to get ahead. i guess u can argue sun/moon does smth similar where you have nebby with lillie #but lillie still ends up handing nebby over to the player and i STILL feel bad because im like shit man you raised that little guy #and koraidon/miraidon feels less like a reward but more like overpowered motorcycle lizard that is just so oupydog. and i love him #and in spirit tracks i went out of my way doing some of the side quests bc zelda asked nicely and honestly that was enough for me #i think all of this boils down to.. i feel very protective abt things i care abt so stories that give me a reason to care hits harder #this can also go the other way bc i CRIED when i finished links awakening because i KNEW every person and im responsible for #literally the end of their world. like. there was a family with 5 kids. marin loved singing and cared about me. she was my FRIEND #i just. ugh. i have too many feelings rn. i kinda wanna draw more spirit tracks link and zelda i think that wld make me feel better #yapping #diary #loz #pokemon

do you ever think about right after v kisses kerry how he says w dazed disbelief he wants this gorgeous moment to last forever to a dying man and johnny’s remark about ‘kerry never did get it. only one thing worse than unfulfilled dreams— dreams that come true’ and how quietly gutted he sounds and then you think about how how kerry’s always wanted to get with johnny and how kerry only romances male v because it unconsciously or not fits into that fifty year old want for johnny or do you do yo u… do you

#cp 2077 #johnny silverhand #kerry eurodyne #silverdyne #silvervdyne #‘johnnys talking about Kerry’s career’ TO YOU!! #i mean. ugh hes self-centered enough that even after all of Kerry’s confessions and admittance he likes the spotlight #sure. johnny can be like. hes lying lol he hates being famous. #this is a dream come true turned bad. which is. missing the plot of kerry exorcism of johnnys ghost #but truly kerry doesnt hate being famous #i think he hates certain parts but he likes people hearing him sing he likes the reach #and its far enough in the plot johnny has some empathy #and hes self centered but hes not stupid #and THEN taking into account those cut lines after v fucks kerry. oooooh boy. #if johnnys being self-centered its because his line is referring to himself because how long has HE been waiting to kiss kerry #and how horrible is this dream finally realized #as an engram in another mans body #anyway call me Pepe Silvia the way im making these baseless accusations and connections #im very close to being finished w my dark matter rewrite and replaying every iteration of the talk w kerry #made me feel things……..

Me: I wonder if Tom Sturridge can sing

Me: *starts watching On The Road*

Me, only paying half attention: oh this bit of song is so balanced and soulful it sounds like part of the soundtrack, I wonder if one of them recorded i--HOLY FUCK NOPE THAT'S TOM. SINGING. QUESTION FUCKIN ANSWERED,,

#tom sturridge #this is why i fucking love actors man #they're all so insanely multitalented. especially the character actors like him #i assumed he could sing since he's got a theater background and I mean most actors CAN #but not all actors are GOOD at it and well #of course he is. how could he not be with That voice #ugh #kase rambles

hr guy was screaming crying throwing up when I told him I wouldn’t be at the evening part of the xmas social because the date changed and I have a life outside of work and now he sends round the details for the unavoidable lunch part and despite me giving him my dietary requirements well in advance on his request there is simply nothing I can eat. like even ditching the vegetarianism I am allergic to everything on this menu.

#wwolf.txt #also like man I don’t drink and I hate people and I have a fatigue disorder. spending a Tuesday night watching my horrifically drunk #colleagues scream-singing to bandoke makes me want to die and that’s only barely hyperbole. #like. this guy really grinds my gears because he’s so AGGRESSIVELY nice it circles right back around into being super counterproductive and #irritating. #like when I started I saw pronouns were optional on our HR profiles- so I didn’t include mine because I didn’t know if other people would #and I didn’t want to put myself at work by being the only one to do it. I didn’t know the vibe. DAY ONE he’s like ‘it’s optional but 🔫 PUT #IN YOUR PRONOUNS WE ARE TRANS INCLUSIVE 🔫’ like you actually have a trans employee and you are speaking to him and you are also directly #stressing him out by doing this :) #and then recently he was coming to my office and was like ‘let me bring you something!’ and I’m sitting here like. one I am uncomfy with you #spending money on me and two. I have Severe allergic reactions and I don’t know or trust you. and three I brought lunch today because I’m #broke. so I’m really fine. and me being like ‘thank you for the offer but I’m okay!’ just led to back and forth and back and forth and #‘[insert coworker name here] never refuses my offers’ like… #ugh. he just drives me up to wall. #oh and don’t call him HR because Humans aren’t a ‘resource’ he’s in ‘people’ #🙄🙄🙄

[grandmofftarkinsuggestions]

wait you don't all want to fuck that old man.

#seeing normie star wars fans being all like 'ugh tarkin 🤢 not this guy again 😒' like ummm. ok. bad taste. #sw #wilhuff tarkin #you all just hate him because he's elderly 😒 ya'll love hux and kyle ron but if they were elderly ya'll'd #be singing a different tune. #or even kallus 😭😭😭 and especially thrawn. ya'll would not be like this if they were elderly because you hate to see an #old queen winning. these characters are comparable in terms of villainy you all just like them more because they're younger. #i see you all. i see it and i am shaking my head. convert to old man fucking today to free yourself.

[sundial-bee-scribbles]

returning to my latino roots for 2023′s first talkloid shitpost 😎😎

rough english transcript under the cut for my non-hispanohablantes (with some translation notes)

piko: you drugged me!

fukase: with love~

piko: with PILLS.

fukase: of love~ ₁

piko: DRUGS.

fukase: look, i know i haven’t been the best alpha male—

piko: honestly, there’s nothing “male”₂ about you.

fukase: —but you have to admit that we had something beautiful...

piko: YOU ARE COMPLETELY INSANE!

fukase: piko, please don’t talk to me like that in front of your son!

piko: WHAT???

kazehiki: hi, daddy

piko: you’ve got to be fucking₃ with me.

fukase: of course, now you don’t recognize your own son—

piko: okay that’s enough i’m going to call the police

fukase: NO! okay, okay... it’s not necessary. i get it now, come on, little hiki, your dad’s being a bitch₄

kazehiki: goodbye, daddy

extra translation notes:

₁ - “de” usually means “of” but it can mean other things like “with”, “out of” or “for” in certain cases (such as the phrase “lo hice de amor” which can translate to “i did it out of/for/with love”, which is similar to the situation going on here). changed it so it hopefully makes more sense in english this way?

₂ - here, “macho” technically would more be “masculine” rather than literal male, and the whole phrase would more accurately be translated as “honestly, you have nothing masculine” but kept the use of the word male to align better with the previous statement so it makes more sense (in english??)

₃ - “no me chingues,” in its roughest form, can sorta be translated like this. basically it’s an expression of disbelief, like “no way” or “you’re kidding me, right?” but a bit more... vulgar lol since ‘chingues’ does sort of literally mean ‘fuck’

₄ - “anda de apretado/a,” when literally translated, essentially means “going around tightened” (or something like that) but it’s an idiom to refer to someone who’s acting very selfishly with no consideration for others. so essentially, acting like a bitch lmao. this is also just taken from the official translation of where the original audio is even from. also, while “ahora entiendo” can also be translated as “i understand now,” i felt like a more casual “i get it” fit this particular context a bit better.

[phantom-of-the-501st]

There's not gonna be a thoughts post about TBB tomorrow :(

So instead I'm gonna post a random one! (Mainly because I has many feelings).

THOUGHTS ON PHANTOM OF THE OPERA

Spoilers for the West End production

So I've never actually been to a musical before because err... those things cost money 😬 but mum and I managed to see Phantom tonight and AAAAHHHH

ASDFGHJKL IT WAS SO GOOD I CAN'T STOP SMILING AAAHHHH

The bit where the chandelier lifts up and the main Phantom theme is playing!!! 🔥

I just sat there grinning like an idiot 😆

Also set design is just *chef's kiss* 😭

I especially love the Phantom's little sewer lair

I don't even like opera music but I love this

I've seen the film once and listened to the soundtrack a few times but it doesn't even compare to this

But I have mixed feelings and by mixed feelings, I mean these next 3 bullet points:

I want to dance around on a rooftop in a swishy dress with a handsome man in a tailcoat

I want to dance around in a tailcoat

I want to run around dressed as the Phantom

I want all three

Let me have all three

Also kept staring at the Vicomte because err... handsome men in period clothing 🫣

And I know he did bad things

Like kill people

And kidnap a woman and threaten to kill her lover if she didn't do as he said

But like... if the Phantom wanted to serenade me I wouldn't complain 😳🫣

Man's got a good voice!

Walking red flag but ya know

Nobody's perfect 🥰

ALSO SOMEONE GIVE THAT POOR MAN A HUG

I was enjoying not crying for a couple days

He's done bad things but ugh 😭

Everyone is so talented omg

And it's even more impressive to me because I can't sing

AND I WAS LOOKING FOR ALL THE TRAPDOORS AND I COULDN'T SEE THEM

SO MANY MAGICALLY APPEARING HOLES 🕳

Laughed more than I expected as well

I don't think I mentioned that the Vicomte ended up with his shirt half undone and sleeves rolled up and WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT MEN IN PERIOD CLOTHING

And I wanna run around as the Phantom so bad 😭 That man's cloak and hat are great

And it felt like he was terrorising our performance which was fun

Overall, it was incredible, the songs were amazing, the cast were perfect and I need to stop crushing on the Phantom because that man is just 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

#we can forgive a man of his sins if he's dressed in period clothing #or can sing well #i'm kidding #pls don't date red flags #but also i have a crush on the phantom now 🫠 #the phantom of the opera #this was random #but ugh #🌹👻

#björn dixgård #mando diao #ælita #2015 #like bruhLOOK AT HIM IN THAT VID!!!! that's the dude who owns one of my absolute fave singing voices!!! #go LISTEN TO THE ÆLITA ALBUM RIGHT THIS MINUTE!!!! and all the other ones too. imo especially Good Times is fantastic #they had some very strange vibes during the ælita tour lol i wish id gone to one of their shows then #+!! any male singer not ready to perform in hotpants & stockings is a coward! #👆 this tomzillaTV yt channel seems to be almost entirely dedicated to mando diao fancams so if you want those there's prob hundreds more! #but i chose this particular gloria vid because of his silly little bum wiggle in the beginning lol #considered using a 'money doesn't make you a man' vid for all their weird stripteasy antics but the intro was too long in all of those :( #sketchbook #doodle #and just as a side note to everyone who follows me for occasional kpop fanart: ive listened to MD over 40 times as much as nct this year:'D #ugh this post doesnt really work on pc :--( u can't see the drawing on raatopaikka.tumblr.com
