Do you have any tips on attempting to kitbash together a broken down Drake and a broken down Saladin? It's going mostly fine, but the paracausal ammunition is reacting oddly with the superheavy chaingun
They're remarkably similar frames, so it's not a surprise they fit together well, but the Drake's stock chaingun isn't built for paracausal munitions. That'll require some reconstruction of the barrel and firing chamber, but nothing you can't achieve with a field printer. Most notably, you'll have to remove the rifling from the barrel, and remove the kinetic launcher from the firing chamber, or it'll bust the parakinetic rounds.

Second favourite outfit round. I guess we could have one fave outfit per piece of media?
This henley-holster-thong necklace combo haunts my dreams.
NO😩😩 I CANNOT SURVIVE ANOTHER UNCHARTED ROUND😩😩😩 that look was 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 doing it for me big time. I want a rewatch now.
Favorite outfit per piece of media sounds good! If you're gonna bring up uncharted I will have to go with Harrison. Unfortunately this shot is very dark, but please turn your screen to full brightness for best viewing experience.
Simple, soft, effective (and tight). Those jeans look good, man. But this is a bit tricky since I can't make out if those are also the jeans he wears in the first scene?? Also does that first scene shirt count as a henley if it has only two buttons?? A baby henley. (We need to have a henley round!)
He just looks so soffffftttt. They really were like "okay here's the ultimate boyfriend, you're welcome"
(also just look at his eyes. I just want to attach this here so we can all appreciate his eyes. not outfit related)
I invented Booker and chose his name simply so Morgan and Seth (Moth) and his ship name could be Mother
And then @betasuppe took one look at these nerds and he was like "Absolutely not. BookMoth." And she's right of course
Also check out the first official art of these three! Credit to @betasuppe as well, I'm obsessed with it and with them and I hope everyone else loves them too
I slept on Wayne for too long. I suppose he was hitting his stride when I was barely a high schooler, but I have no excuse for not checking out his backlog sooner. Tha Carter II is a solid contender for his best work and represents a huge jump in quality from his previous work. That's not to say Tha Carter I is bad, far from it, but Weezy completely and utterly destroys the competition on this one. Behind the laid back lazy vibes there's a lot of highly technical shit happening in the verses here. Weezy can maintain a rhyme scheme well past when a normal person would have run dry and the multisyllabic patter is layered into the rhymes until he's practically juggling rhyme and rhythmic ideas. The ability to glide from laid back to intense staccato flow and from lazy to frenetic pace is an amazing achievement. When Lil Wayne declared himself the best rapper alive he was not kidding. He sincerely was one of the best rappers alive.
Mobb Deep - The Infamous
For people that are not already big hip hop heads this album is a bit of a hidden gem. It came out among a scene that was reinventing hardcore hip hop on the east coast, but didn't quite achieve the long term success of Enter the Wu Tang or Illmatic. Possibly the starkness is slightly to blame. There is no time for goofy skits and even the bravado isn't in the name of fun, this shit is serious. There's less individualist bravado here and more 'none of are gonna make it unless we all work together' vibes. East coast hip hop has a few notable hallmarks and my favorite is the oh so predictable inclusion of what I like to call "haunted piano". This tends to lend a more serious, stark sound to east coast hip hop as opposed to the funkier west coast. In the case of The Infamous these stark beats and dead serious subject matter make for an intense experience. Plus the features by Nas, Q-Tip (who also produces), and half the Wu-Tang crew make this album a who's who of east coast rappers.
George Harrison - All Things Must Pass
When the Beatles broke up John and Paul started their solo careers and Ringo went back into the Ringo box or whatever. George Harrison however had an ace up his sleeve. While John and Paul had been stealing the limelight he had just been writing a billion fucking songs and so his solo debut is a triple album. Surprisingly there is very little of the psychedelic raga influenced ramblings that you'd expect, instead Harrison seems to have gotten interested in country and blues. And it really works! There is of course a fair bit of psychedelia, My Sweet Lord was the big hit after all and the title track is pretty psych too. But imo the album's strongest moments are after a reprise of Isn't It A Pity where he just spends the rest of the album doing extended bluesy hard rock guitar jams.
Drake - If You're Reading This It's Too Late
Listen I'm such a fucking hater for Drake. So it pains me to say that this album isn't a complete dumpster fire. It is still impossible for me to take Drake seriously as a rapper but hey at least he's trying to actually rap right? I think this might actually be enjoyable if it was pared down a bit and if the beats were punched up a bit and if someone other than Drake rapped over them.
Aerosmith - Rocks
I'm gonna start being known as that girl who will go to bat for mediocre dad rock bands aren't I? I like Aerosmith, they genuinely nail the stupid guitar god machismo of the 70s. The guitars can scream, the drums go wild, and Steven Tyler's camp ass voice feels completely unrestrained. All they have to do is keep up that energy and they do. When Last Child started playing I legitimately air guitared to that sick ass riff.
Madvillain - Madvillainy
MF Doom and Madlib were a match made in hip hop heaven. Madlib could flip a sample better than anyone in the industry at the time and the esoteric nostalgic beats were the perfect accompaniment for Doom's supervillain persona. Doom's rapping is at its peak here, pretty much take every good thing I said about Wayne's technique and turn it up to eleven. Faster, effortless, deliberately sloppy, mumbly yet perfectly enunciated. Rhymes in rhymes in rhymes are stuffed rapid fire in a minute and a half what would take other rappers four. Doom's GOAT status is unassailable. The thing is that Madlibs beats are so incredible that if you just removed Doom from this record it would still be an amazing listen. These two are just so incredibly individually talented musicians that also happen to be the perfect fit for each other.
