romanticizing living out of my car with my girlfriend to cope with the fact that I will never afford a comfortable life on disability in this country and it'll be easier to be myself out in the wild where there's no people than to try to be myself where hundreds of strangers want me dead for being autistic ✌️
Parody of 'Living in America' by James Brown, from the film 'Rocky IV'
Dare To Be Stupid
Style parody of 'Devo', also is the best Devo song that was ever made & it wasn't even fucking made by Devo themselves. What the fuck.
Also side note but this song is used in the fucking Transformers movie & that's fucking amazing tbh.
And it's extra fucking amazing because later on, Weird Al himself voices a transformer in the 2007 'Transformers Animated' show that is designed to basically just be Al but as a transformer. This means that Weird Al is canonically a Transformer in the Transformers lore. And also he's objectively the best Transformer because it's fucking Weird Al & that's how it works sorry I don't make the rules.
The delightfully gaudy costumes worn by James Brown and his entourage of dancers in Rocky IV (1985)'s infamous 'Living in America' sequence. Costumes designed by Tom Bronson, with costume illustrator Haleen Holt.
This song is from me to you. You make me mad and you make me blue.
You're looking like I do, you know I can see you.
We dance to the same groove, but I've got the right moves.
Hope you're happy now, but I'm not giving in.
I hope you're satisfied with your bullshit and your lies.
Hope you're happy now, but I'm not giving up.
I hope you're satisfied, can't bury me alive. They call me a slut, they call me a liar.
I got so many names now, I can't even deny it.
idk how to explain exactly but it feels so fucking dystopian and gross to be speaking about something to another person in real, physical life and then getting fucking advertisements immediately thereafter despite not having even searched any similar keywords
i’m so tired of being constantly listened to. It makes me feel, like… paranoid? But is it really paranoia if it’s actually fucking happening and is just normalized?
Anyway, basically what I’m saying is, uh… mental illness + living in a surveillance state = unstable ground to be on
This was back in the days when movie magic was from real acting mixed with genuine reactions and a real story line, as opposed to a movie's revenue depending on how amazing the movie's graphic art and special FX are. Plus, Dolph's reaction to thinking he's just going in for a boxing match and seeing this is priceless...
