Russ from what i remember
Prephase: broke murdoc's nose
Phase 1: possessed by del and provided an outlet to rap (which means del was relevent, but only bc of russ)
Phase 2: either not much or don't remember
Phase 3: swam the ocean and came across noodle
Phase 4: the whole gang was vibin' but also had his podcast
Phase 5: did some interviews but again vibed
Phase 6: vibin'
Phase 7: predicted 2d's sacrifice wrongly, but did so by being glued to a tv the whole phase :/
So in conclusion: russ is very underutilized u-u
x YEAH LIKE HES DEFINITELY UNDERUTILIZED... the only things he's ever done were like... about other characters? and of course everything the characters do will in some way be because of the other characters. that's how stories work. but with like Russel, the only reason he was relevant was because they needed Del for music videos. compare this to like, Murdoc, who just kinda does whatever serves himself the best, everything that happens is quite literally because of him, because of his decisions (do i even need to explain. pick an event and you can probably trace it back to Murdoc). it just seems like everyone is reacting to whatever Murdoc is doing.. and that's especially true for Russel and Noodle because they just don't get as much screentime, they don't get as many voice lines to distinguish themselves or stand out a bit more like 2-D does :/
Idk I just love him 💔 writers im literally begging you give him an active story role. it's especially disheartening because he has probably the most interesting backstory and the most pleasant and rich personality.. if they'd bother to show that more
I love Gorillaz don't get me wrong but yeah. my points still stand I said what I said

rambley post idk lol
NOTING STUFF TO MYSELF BC IM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE APPROX DATE WHEN GUZMA BECAME MY NAME IN 2018. THIS IS PERSONAL SO DONT MIND IT IM LIKE INVESTIGATING STUFF USING ONLY STUFF I SENT IN MY OLD PERSONAL DISCORD SERVER BC ALL THE OTHER SERVERS I WAS IN AT THE TIME R GONE... anyways!! this goes into other Guzma Lore As Well because I Have Bad Memory And I Like Looking Back At What I Used To Do
around in 2018, july, when i was on vacation...i was... NOT WELL! MENTALLY! AT ALL! LOWKEY DEPRESSED AS SHIT THERE! a lot of my uh.. past "drama" happened around that time, if you know what i mean. cough... and other than THOSE people i had... not many people to talk to so i said fuck it lets join a furry server! coz yknow im a Furry. (bad idea but whatever)
but WELL a few days BEFORE THAT i? randomly got hyperfixated on team skull/guzma during my general pokemon fixation? i changed my name to guzma for a joke and because i liked him a lot and some of my friends changed their name and icons to "grunt A" "grunt B" "grunt C" and so on. we memed around a bit and i kept this name - and then i joined the furry server. i began talking there a lot i mean i had literally almost 2k messages there in one day i did not leave the room we were staying at all i did that day was chat there and use the pokemon bot there.
thanks to these cool people i met... the name guzma just STUCK. without that server and without those people guzma wouldn't be solidified as my (at least online) name. and WELL. this was even before me accepting myself as trans and nonbinary so LMFAO.
and well i am not sure WHEN i joined the server but i spammed a bunch of team skull memes i stole from tumblr (i wasnt even active here?? im sure the acc i used back then is looong deleted also.) onto that discord server. that was july 17th. but im not sure if that was the date i set guzma as my name for the first time - just my brain rot starting. and i already had some icon edits by the 26th - so i began the inside joke around that time, i assume? not sure? which means i set my name that way there already? LIKE. BY THAT TIME I WAS ALSO DRAWING MYSELF IN GUZMA'S OUTFIT AND SUCH. LIKE. c'mon...
AND! OFFICIALLY BY THE 29TH!! I sent the icon i would use that i KNOW i used on the server a 100%. like when my name got solidified. wouldnt be it without it. so like.. i always say the day is the 29th even if i set the name guzma a while before that... its hard to SAY but i always just say that like... july/august is the Guzma Anniversary.
i know this Heavy Guzma Brainrot also went thru the entire august. then i got into... detroit become human??? then gorillaz which laster 2 whole years. which lead to the creation of this blog. and then its deletion. and then its recreation. yeah. but at that point i was just Guzma.
fun fact, this was like? my first post on my old blog in 2018. i wonder if its still reblogged somewhere on an old gorillaz blog despite my old blog being gone.
Tumblr media
not sure why people rbd this its not funny
anyways also speaking of which. wanna know how i used to draw MYSELF. i cant draw myself as Human anymore thats Not Me The Guz Beast but PLEASE LOOK

SMALL ADDITION TO MY NEW YEARS RESOLUTION LIST
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i neeeed to fix my record player and get back into silk screen printing! i have so many ideas for small runs of simple grungy shirt designs i can do at home. also i want to build up a music library with everything that moved me through the years. as i m posting on tumblr rn the foundation of that collection is pretty much the embodiment of my 2014 tumblr era ... which was ( to be fair ) a pretty defining time for me, too.
LANA DEL REY — BORN TO DIE, ULTRAVIOLENCE self explaining if you knew me for 5 minutes ...
HALSEY — BADLANDS, MANIC, NIGHTMARE i have tattoos for all of them, and manic was a surprise. i didn't like it at first and ended up calling it therapy in 2019, which might have been one of my worst years so far
THE BLACK KEYS — BROTHERS the first album i actively listened to and still one of my all time faves !!!! sinister kid for life
GREEN DAY — AMERICAN IDIOT THE BROADWAY RECORDING idk if or where to get this yet but i basically grew up on the green day albums the musical is made of and the first time ive seen billy joel armstrong live on stage! just holds a special place in my heart
TWENTY ONE PILOTS — TRENCH although i got into the band with blurryface, i ended up with trench on the loop! my best friend and i cried like babys at the concert
BON IVER — FOR EMMA, FOREVER AGO another one of my earliest favourites and it still gives me a very special, melancholic feeling
ARCTIC MONKEYS — AM blueprint and milestone for my style and music taste development?!
GORILLAZ — PLASTIC BEACH, DEMON DAYS also a very early found of mine and filled with so many bangers i hold close to my heart
AMY WHINEHOUSE — BACK TO BLACK not every song moved me as much as the other but it just feels right to have that one
OEL — ÜBER NACHT the first band my brother and i 110% agreed on and it will forever make me feel like home
WOODKID — THE GOLDEN AGE the golden age of my video game addiction indeed. i also started running with their songs.
ANNENMAYKANTEREIT — ALLES NIX KONKRETES a little cringe but it WAS the soundtrack to my sturm & drang times in cologne. oh my god is this a reckoning?!
MODERAT — III just. bliss.
FLORENCE + THE MACHINE — CEREMONIALS lungs was great but this was wicked, my guys. a must have for me.
FUNKADELIC — MAGGOT BRAIN i'm loosing my mind over this on a daily basis ngl
CHET BAKER — CHAT BAKER SINGS as i still feel like a jazz newbie, chat just kinda speaks to me?? the resemblence is also striking and idk sometimes it just feels like there's my past-me singing ...
SON LUX — BRIGHTER WOUNDS of ALL the great son lux songs and albums that accompanied me through the years, this strikes me the most!
MELANIE MARTINEZ — CRY BABY product of its time, adorable and important to me
THE NEIGHBOURHOOD — WIPED OUT! product of its time, adorable and important to me !!!
CRYSTAL CASTLES — (II) product of its time, adorable and important to me !!!!!!!!!!!
SIA — 1000 FORMS OF FEAR a surprisingly heavy influence when i dealt with my first experiences with substance abuse :") also cute lil wig cover
that might be it for now, and only should give you an idea of how im working on this. it almost feels like i'm building up my heritage of sorts. music gladly made it to one of the most important things in my life again and i finally want to give it the space and time and care that it deserves. so excuse me for being emo and absolutely unnecessarily explicit about my plans here. ITS CALLED MANIFESTING.

sorry youve probably been asked this before, but may i ask why do u dislike 2-d? im just curious about your opinions on him
Hello! I have, but it's okay. I can try to answer it again, though if you'd like to read more, I had a little bit of an ongoing discussion about this in October of last year (2021) which you can skim via my blog archive. Someday I'll figure out a way to make navigation on this blog easier...
Anyhow, I'll preface all of this by saying that I enjoy the 2D of P1 and P2. I also enjoy different fanon versions of 2D, as well as the 2D I imagine in my head. However, currently, I'm kind of over the image the Gorillaz franchise pushing for 2D now, and consequently what his character's fanbase brings to the fandom. Earlier phases did an adequate job of depicting 2D as someone who can be slow to catch on to things, but also extremely knowledgeable about music, keyboards and horror movies, and capable as a member of the band; good-natured, but also mean-spirited, immature and selfish at times. He was like, a well-rounded person for the most part. Fans still cinnamon roll-ified him back then, but at least the canon writing was sort of trying.
Today, the writing seems to be on the same page as most 2D fans (not all 2D fans, but many of them), to the point where people can't seem to fathom him having any flaw that would make him even a little bit unlikable. Idk if there's a opposite of "demonize" (deify?...doesn't sound right)...but whatever it is, it's been happening to 2D for most of his existence but definitely gotten more pervasive in recent years. It's wild to me how many people are resistant to seeing 2D as anything but cute and harmless, as someone who could never do anything wrong in his life. Or if he does do something wrong, "he didn't mean it" or "it was someone else's *coughMurdoccough* fault."
I understand doing this for self-indulgent reasons, that's valid etc etc, but speaking personally, it turns me off of his character. He's 1000% more interesting to me as a flawed, at times unlikable, man. He's capable of playing active roles in canon and in fanworks that aren't only being a victim, being "dumb" for comedic relief, or being incapable of doing anything without someone there to help him. I think that interpretation of him is very limiting and devoid of some of my favorite characteristics of his. Sometimes he's an asshole, sometimes he does things for the wrong reason. Obviously, this isn't 2D's fault, but I really find his current self unexciting and uninspired. I'm not interested in 100% good, flawless yet empty characters. Idk I just don't really want any part in his whole...scene or w/e at the moment...probably into the foreseeable future.

hey love!! idk if ur matchups are open, if they're not you can skip this, but I'd love one if they are!! I'm half canadian, half korean, bi, my pronouns are she/her, but I'm kinda considering they idk, and im pagan/wiccan (work a deities, tarot cards, spell jars, etc), I'm absolutely enamored with literature, either classics or modern ya, I'm aiming for oxford for university, and streamer and lawyer are my two top career choices. I'm an infj and a taurus sun w a cancer moon, virgo rising, cancer mars, aries mercury, and pisces venus, and I either sleep too much or too little. My favorite colors are green, pink, and brown, and I've just started my squishmallow collection. Singing, writing, reading, and playing video games too much are my top hobbies. I speak english, french, sign language, korean, italian, a bit of Spanish, and a bit of german. I have very eclectic music taste, but wallows, ariana grande, arctic monkeys, gorillaz, lana del ray, and melanie martinez are my favorite artists. I'm decent at cooking but I have a deadly fear of the oven (i make cookies in the microwave rip). My love languages are touch (though I can only do it w people I'm vv close to), teasing (friends and exes have called me a tsundere</3), annotating books and giving them to people, and always checkin in on whether uve eaten/had water/slept. I'm an introvert that acts like an extrovert in public, but I'm actually vv quiet. I live for psychology and I'm also really bad at shutting up about myself (I'm so sorry). I hope this wasnt too much haha, thank u in advance, I hope u have a lovely day!!
For the lovely @smackmyasslikeavolleyball sorry this took so long 🥲
Romantic Matchup
Oikawa Tooru
Tumblr media
How Y’all Met
Aoba Johsai was hosting a school fair
And you had offered to do tarot readings as a activity
Oikawa was intrigued by the little tent that got set up
But he was to scared to go alone 🤡
So he dragged iwa to come try it with him
The first thing he noticed was how beautiful you were :)))
The second thing he noticed how passionate you were about your work
It reminded him of how he was with volleyball
You began a card reading for him
And two cards that stood out were
The death card in an upright position
And
The lovers card in an upright position
Now Oikawa had no clue what these cards meant
But when you explained them to him
He took that as a sign to ask you out
So he waited till the end of the fair
And he offered to help you clean up your area
And offered to take you to a late lunch
You both went to a small restaurant nearby
And just talked to each other
Like shit
You guys found out EVERYTHING about each other
You both just found it easy to open up to each other
Since then you both became really close friends
And eventually Oikawa got the guts to ask you out
After a....encouraging...pep talk from Iwa
And you had said yes
Damn the cards never lie ig 😳
(I am so sorry if the card readings were inaccurate, I literally know nothing about tarot cards 💀)
What They Love About You
He loves how caring and attentive you are
Oikawa has a tendency to overwork himself without even realizing it
So your little reminders to take care of himself mean the world to him
Because it just shows him that you genuinely care about him
He loves your love language 👀
Alright this mf is CLINGY
But in a good way you know?????
Like at the end of a hard day mans just wants to go home and cuddle with you
Which will fit hand in hand with your love language
And omg if you tease him
Mf will tease you right back
Y’all can be tsunderes together ❤️
He loves that you have big goals for your future
It’s something you have in common with him :)
And you both are able to push each other to reach those goals
Favorite Things To Do Together
Ok so he really likes to cook with you
And let me make a point of this
He likes to COOK with you
Baking is a no no
You guys baked together ONCE
And not only did you almost burn the house down
But the brownies didn’t even taste good 😡
So you guys just stick to cooking together
Even if it’s just a packet of instant ramen
Mans will sit with you in the kitchen till it’s outta the microwave
Random Hc
Ok so with your psychology knowledge
You tend to call the man out sometimes 👁👄👁
Like it’s SCARY
“Do you think you try so hard because you want to make everyone proud of you? Or is it your god complex trying to prove to everyone that your better?”
Oikawa rn: 🙂🥲
But it’s ok cause if it’s a problem then he’ll work on it
One time you we’re scolding him about not getting enough sleep
Astrology
And all the mf did was point out how bad your sleep schedule is
So you both made a bet on who could fix their sleep schedule
When Taurus and Cancer come together in a love affair, it’s usually a very good combination.
They are two positions apart within the Zodiac, and such Signs tend to share karmic ties and a deep mutual understanding.
These particular two Signs have much in common
Both prize security in a love relationship above almost all else
both tend to be nurturers
Cancer is emotionally nurturing while Taurus loves to spoil their lover with sensual delights, gifts and good, rich meals
They’re both quite domestic and love a quiet night spent at home with their sweetie.
The Taurus-Cancer partnership tends to be a happy one due to this mutual enjoyment of the security and comfort of home.
They love a solid home base, a strong relationship, nice possessions, good food: all the comforts of domestic life.
Theirs is often the ideal family that people of other Signs strive for, with strong ties between them and a relationship that is family-oriented rather than toward the outside world.
Their only major problems arise when Taurus insists on having its own way and Cancer responds by sulking.
Taurus must understand Cancer’s emotional sensitivity, and Cancer needs rely on open, honest communication than on emotional blackmail.
Both Signs are dependable and nurturing, strongly oriented toward domestic life together.
A mutual love of home and security makes theirs an ideal long-term, family relationship.
Overall Aesthetic
Mystical Cryptic

posting this here bc i feel like i'd get crucified on twitter on both sides but honestly like....guys, you have to stop clinging onto a 14-year-old image of gorillaz. gorillaz isnt what it used to be and i guarantee a lot of the people clinging onto it rn werent even fully aware of gorillaz's nature and the extent of the project when phase 2 was happening (myself included). i'm not saying we cant critique gorillaz. in fact, i think people who are constantly shutting down criticisms because "isnt it enough to just enjoy the music?" isn't a good response. those people who get mad at criticisms often do so because they've attached their interests so deeply to their identities that an "attack" on gorillaz is an attack on them. that isnt healthy. if you really love something, you should be willing to observe it at all angles and critique it to make it better. ultimately, critics give opinions because theyre invested in the wellbeing and improvement of the project. at the end of the day, this project was made specifically to encourage criticicism of the music industry. and now that they're in the music industry, it only makes sense to extend that criticism to them. so yes, please critique and question gorillaz's choices! it's really important to do so!
my gripe comes, though, when people are like "gorillaz isn't gorillaz anymore, now theyre irredeemable :((" because at the end of the day, every second gorillaz is active will always be the most gorillaz they've ever been. the same way that youre currently the most you you've ever been. because thats how time works lol. it's not unfair to critique gorillaz by comparing it to what it once was. but what is unfair is upholding what it once was as the only definitive version of gorillaz.
i get it. you wanna lament what's no longer there and you wanna mourn the loss of what the project once was. that's understandable, and its unfortunate because that kind of change in direction happens with a lot of projects, especially long-lasting ones. your disappointment in this case isn't your fault. however, you can lament without expecting for modern gorillaz to suddenly turn back into phase 2 and then get disappointed that it didnt happen. at that point, your disappointment is your fault because youre putting expectations in a place that gorillaz has proven they will not reach since at least 2010.
you can't get mad at a penguin for not flying even if it evolved from something that once could. instead, place your expectations in its swimming capabilities since that's the new direction it evolved into. gorillaz has evolved in a different direction now. you have to accept that at some point. you have to accept that gorillaz is a different project now, and thusly mold your critiques around the project that it currently is rather than critiquing it under the context of a project it's not. if you're not molding your critiques to the project it currently is, then your criticisms lose a lot of relevance. depending on how disconnected they are, they cease to be criticisms at all. they just become complaints.
this is the part where i say obviously everyone is entitled to their own opinion and everyone is allowed to like or dislike content however they want. everyone is entitled to complain now and again. and at the end of the day, i can choose to mute people if i dont wanna hear endless complaints against gorillaz or endless defensiveness against critics (which i already have muted ppl on both sides). but im not necessarily saying this for my own sake. ive already got myself covered, ive already muted who i wanted to and will likely unmute once everything is less divisive. im saying this for the sake of those who are so distraught by the path gorillaz has taken and distraught by those with valid criticisms against gorillaz. you guys are making your lives a lot harder and youre exerting a lot of your mental and emotional energy investing in either A) a project that no longer exists and will never exist again; or B) valid critiques on said project that hurt your feelings because you've attached your identity to this thing.
all im saying is, if youre not having fun, you can go home. if it causes you so much anguish to see gorillaz or to see people talk about gorillaz, take a break from gorillaz. thats what i did, and it personally helped me gain a new perspective when coming back into it. i still prefer the older way that gorillaz handled things, and probably always will. but the new doesn't taint my experiences of the old anymore because i took a break from the tunnel vision i (and others) have been getting. it really affected my enjoyment of the media i once loved. this maybe wont work for you, but it's a suggestion. because i guarantee you, youre never gonna get what you want being in denial about the state of things. like it or not, accept it and move on with your life.
(in case anyone is wondering bc im not here to start drama, this is NOT against anyone or any group of people specifically. i may have referenced a few people's complaints here, but only bc it's what i saw on twitter. this is not a #vaguepost or #callout or whatever. this is a blanket statement for the entire fanbase. so i better not see anyone commenting "its ok op, you can just say [insert twitter handle here]")

------------------------------------------------------
Ah yes, a gorillaz oc, always knew this day would come. Im not kidding when I say that I drew this a few weeks ago on paper but I started it digitally today and finished it today. Yes she looks a little bit mean, its either that or im tripping. !!BEFORE PROCEDING PLEASE  BE AWARE THAT I AM NOT THE BEST AT STORY TELLING. YES I JUST REALIZED THAT MURDOC MAY SEEM BIT OOC IN THIS STORY PLOT!!
------------------------------------------------------
Background
Born on February 14, 1976 to a Italian Father and Hispanic/Japanese Mother. Zi lived most of her life on a schedule made by her parents, which consisted mostly of ..
ex. waking up at 7:15am for school, brushing teeth, coming hair neatly, eating small breakfast, attenting school, getting home from school at 3:45 sharp, doing the dishes, sweeping the floors, helping with dinner, eating small dinner, bathing, and sleeping all at 7 years old.
Sometime between 1979 Zi's father started having an affair with a richer woman eventually leaving Zi and her mother in 1980. Zi's father never bothered to check up on her or her mother again, Zi's mother however was delited at the fact that be had left. She had been also having an affair for a while and now that her now exHusband was gone she could bring the new man in her and Zi's life.
Middle School
Zi's middle school experience was a misery. Her mother nor Step-Father made no interest into taking care of her Physical or Mental needs. They instead dedicated themselves towards Zi's half-sister, Nina. Nina was they're pride, much more "prettier and calmer" than Zi. The only thing that they made sure to keep track of Zi was her school grades, cleaning chores and cooking chores.
Highschool
High school was no better, now 16 and taking care of the house by herself. Needless to say she was having stressful days. There would be days where she was forced to clean the floors and walls untile they shined, cook for the family, wash the dishes like if her life depended on it and studied until her brain was fried. Of course as soon as she was able to get out of school and had enough money she made a run for it. The ran, she ran and never looked back.
------------------------------------------------------
Forming the Band
After her flee from her home life, she took shelter with a close friend of her's apartment. There she would have to decide what she wanted to do for the rest of her life. She wanted to do big things, meet famous people, travel the world. Her friend , Jenny Spinfield , had proposed the idea of starting a band. They made fliers listing for band members, a few weeks after that they meet two twins, Jack and Julie. Jack had come looking for the bassist possition, Julie came for the Drummer position. After having spending enough time gettting to know eachother they were ready. They were ready to start their band, "RockyGhouls"
Meeting Murdoc
Some time between 1998 and 1999 Zi was introduced to Murdoc through Julie. Not lomg after Zi and Murdoc started growing close. They would practice together, play tricks on random people on the street together and much more. Around the end on 1999 Murdoc had surprisingly gained some form of interest for Zi, a couple of weeks later he asked her out, she was a bit hesitant at first knowing his reputation with woman but she accepted nonetheless and soon after they had officially become a couple in 2000.
2003
They had just reached their three year anniversary when things started going south, Murdoc would start forgetting their dates, hangouts and favorite stuff of theirs. Zi was starting to get suspicious but she didn't want to investigate, what if her worst fears were finally coming through, he was going back to his old ways. She didn't want to push it so she never asked him face to face, it wasn't until late July on a morning day when she found him in bed with another woman were she finally broke. She was livid, mad, enraged, she wanted to throw all of this stuff out and burn it to ash. She wanted to hurt that woman, she wanted to hurt him. Those few minutes that she stood there with wide eyes just staring at them were the worst minutes of her life, after those minutes passed she slamed the door to his room shut and left. That afternoon Murdoc had tried visiting her apartment only to hear from the front lady that she had left in a hurry a few hours ago with her stuff, he didn't want to believe it, he wanted to see it for himself. He wanted to apologize to Zi, he wanted to say how she meant nothing to him, he reached her apartment door and quickly unlocked her door opened and rushed into the now vacant apartment. She was gone, the one woman who he would have wanted to spend the rest of his life with was gone all he because he couldn't help sleeping with a different woman.
2003-2004
Zi ended up finding her way back to Jenny, who gladly let her stay in her home. Zi was mad, she was livid, she wanted to yell and scream at him but she had decided leaving was the beter option. Some weeks after Zi moved in she had started throwing up a lot, eating weird combinations of food and gaining stomach weight. She knew what was going on but she didn't want to believe it, she didn't want to believe she was pregnant with Murdoc's child. Jenny had also started growning suspicious too. Jenny confronted her about the pregnancy, Zi was a mess she was sobbing she was hysterical, she wasn't ready to be a mother, she didn't want to worry about the bills and money she'd have to earn to keep the child in good health and shape. Eventually Jenny calmed her down and found a solution to this, she proposed that Zi make up half on the bill and her make up the other half that Zi wouldn't have to spend hours upon hours working just to pay off bills. She also proposed the idea of making an appointment to the doctors to check on the baby. Zi was a bit hesitant but she accepted the deal, and she's glad she did because after all that hassle she was able to give birth to get beautiful baby girl, Bo Loveday in April of 2004.
------------------------------------------------------
Authors Note
I hope at least some people enjoyed reading Zi's life. I know i have only 2 followers but yk what im happy I was able to post this even though my brain is now fried to a crisp. Later on i'll do Bo's life.

What I post: For the most part ATLA content (zutara centered) some general ranting, and fanfiction related stuff. I’m trying to keep it to that lol
Last thing i googled: ngl something about my dog bc she hasn’t been feeling good tonight, I was nervous that I might have to take her to the vet but I think I webmd diagnosed her so I’m gonna play it by ear bc I honestly think she just ate her dinner too quickly lol.
Other blogs: I have my old blog that I used from like 2011-now, and I definitely had another earlier on from like 2009-10 ish
Do i get asks?: I’ve only had a few so far here, but its been really cool to get them - I used to love answering asks on my old blog but I haven’t been active in a couple of years

I was looking for the 2d post but i found this too i think its from a week ago-->
Ok i cant be the only one who does this so im raising the poll bc i must know. Am i the only one who gets easily obsessed with "things"? Like hobbies passions activities and pieces of media no matter the obscurity. But this is the thing- it only lasts for periods of time, like it seems to go in waves. I'll be so so obsessed with something for a short period of time and learn everything about it and read all the tv tropes pages on it and pirate it if its a game or movie and play/read/watch/whatever it over and over and draw art for it and froth at the mouth about it for a few weeks and then either totally abandon it, or "file it away" as something i find mildly interesting in the future. And these files are what I call my current interests, even if im not really into them as i once was. What this is about right now obviously is my big ass sonic phase that is completely obscuring every interest right now. Like my pokemon phase was last year and theres a wartortle figurine in my room that i recall being the shit but looking at it now i think... why is this even in my room? I dont even care about pokemon. And i find it hard to care about any media beside sonic bc thats what the thing is now. Its not a new thing either because i remember these waves since elementary school and its always the most embarrassing inane shit like... the 6teen stoked and tdi trifecta. Ren and stimpy. The simpsons was a big one i remember. my ssb brawl month in middle school!??? There are so many, like really there are a LOT. and I try hard to hide how hard these waves hit because its true, its just unusual when someone can flip so harshly from loving one thing to total apathy. Sometimes the waves will last from a week to almost a year, and then after i find myself not as media-crazy as i was before i’ll go into a remission phase and my interests will even out a little more. Then... maybe in a few weeks, maybe in a couple of months, or even longer, someway I’ll find either a new thing or go back to an old thing and the cycle will start again. Maybe its not at manic as it sounds and some waves hit much harder than others, but Im starting to think these periods of obsession aren’t as common as I thought there were. The constant is, though, is that I'll always seem to go back to some interest some time, so the interests "rotate" in a way. One week I'll be really obsessed with cooking and create 50 little buffets in a day then just stop cooking completely for a week. Sonic was really the shit in my second year of middle school and now its back, but so was animal jam in the first year and gorillaz in third and dancing in the fourth, but so was dancing in second of elementary and waynes world freshman year. I think sonic also came back for like a week that year that was weird. I really am leaving out a lot. Sometimes the obsession-less periods can get rlly long too...
I feel inclined to call these ‘special interests’ except they just seem to be the same amount of obsession in shorter, multiple spans of time and of varying topics which makes them less special i spose and also im not autistic
I just feel kind of crazy, like obsessive-crazy like this even if it makes me happy. But i wouldnt feel that way if everybody else did it like me so i guess that shows if i really should care or put a name to this whole thing anyway

anyway im gonna make another ramble post so it’s going under a readme, sorry to any mobile users
Tumblr media
Welp. It certainly has been a past couple of weeks. Things are collapsing and like, I know I’m a fixer but i’m just out of fixing juice.
After my big dip into the void my mom’s been really on me, which is like, I appreciate it, but it doesn’t really help to get a text every day at 1130 asking me to call her bc she’s worried about me despite me confirming im fine and went to therapy earlier that day. Like I love my mom and i appreciate the effort but there’s too much bad juju there.
Speaking of attention i need more clingy friends bc like, i love my friends, and I know they’re busy and have things to do but It’d be nice to have someone to like, just talk to or that would just stick around whenever. Or at least like, when I aske them if they want to hang out on a particular day and they ask if I had any particular time in mind and my responce is whenever is good for them, that I don’t have any plans and then don’t make any plans waiting for them to get back to me and just. Nothing. It hurts. Like, I know I’m a lot and I share a lot of stuff with people I like but at the same time I have like, 2 friends that reciprocate that and neither of them actually have cars and one’s a closer at my store while i’m a morning/mid shift or a closer on their day off.
As for coworkers, that’s just... a fuckin mess. One of my old friends barely works anymore, but we had started growing apart anyway after she started dating again. Another friend from the same time is great but he’s a huge fuckin stress ball, which I can’t blame him for, there’s a lot of stress in his life but noone seems to realize the only way to keep him calm at work is to keep him continuously distracted, despite me doing my best to teach that to the new kids. The new kids aren’t getting trained properly anyway, the last opener that got proper training afaik is me, and I got that after my first open when I taught myself how to do it.
((also unrelated but this gorillaz song came on at work today and I almost lost it))
I almost lost it bc a) my hormones are finally kicking in, but that also means I’m 1) hitting second puberty, with all that entails and 2) have a self inflicted hormone imbalance, and b) I spent 2 months trying to break up a toxic relationship and it just... didn’t work.
I shouldn’t really be surprised but like, I really liked the girl and I think she can see it but there were very convenient excuses to be made, ignoring that the problems from before the convenience were still going to be there afterwards. Depite she herself saying her mood had improved, despite their roomate actively being and saying he was in a better place with him gone, despite one of our mutual friends who was friends with the boyfriend before the breakup found out why and said it wasn’t cool. I can’t be the rock for someone so they can stay in a toxic relationship. I may be a Krystal but I’m not attuned for that. No one should be. (Esp not since... she started thinking polyamory was for saving toxic relationships? that was a weird convo.) And now it’s killing me because I removed myself from the situation. 3rd time wasn’t the charm, and the 4th time’s an omen which I don’t care to experience, but she’s drowning herself in responsibilities and it’s not going to end well, but she refuses to let me try and talk her down from some of it. Like, I respect the hustle but at the same time, please don’t kill yourself. And I, always the masochist, was dumb, and checked her blog. She kicked it back on when me and a coworker told her we were both on it, and we were mutuals before i decided to space out and it’s just mostly my content? like shit I send her and my main and dirty side blog? like i know i’m pretty present on here and stuff but still. It’s... it’s hard. It’s hard to give up on a relationship. It’s hard to stiffle chemistry with a person. I know I can’t fix this. I can’t be the emotional crowbar i want to be, that I tried to be. It’s her choice, and I can only support her decision.
Spotify’s been fun recently bc my emotional state, despite my attempts to keep it mostly under wraps, bleeds heavily into my music tastes and it’s been. not great. I legitimately woke up one morning and a song I don’t remember listening to was on my most recent listen and it like. Hurted. when I listened back. I should really start making playlists but I can barely pay attention and I don’t need to concentrate my depression songs into one place. Music is good and can help but there’s only a certain number of times i can listen to certain songs before the void covers my ears.
I just want to be happy. I just want to feel safe, my friends to be safe and happy, and just... The world is burning. I just need some solace. Something. I’m drifting hard, my temporal dissonance is getting overwhelming, I’m clawing for anything to hold onto that my brain hasn’t decided is fake yet and it’s... there’s nothing there. And I won’t be an alcoholic. I won’t. I’ll stuff it down with dr pepper and twizzlers. Just... take the edge off. be gentle with me. Rage, guilt, sadness, restlessness, just all sorts of things I put away bc I’m the fixer, not other people. Opening up gets me hurt, hurts others. It’s fine though. It’ll work out. It always does, unfortunately.
please get some sleep, drink some water, and know that somewhere in the southeast there’s a sad trans girl who hopes you have a nice day tomorrow.

ppl keep saying that they hate that muds is back and they wish ace would stay like??? my green man does not deserve this y'all the whole reason he faked the whole prison escape was to get someone to care abt him and everyone is still bullying my son smhhh
I mean. of course they aren’t going to suddenly start liking him… some people MIGHT if this had been a properly done redemption arc but….. its turning out to be a little more complicated then that… which… I hope is on purpose?? and that the redemption is still on its way?? because we’re supposed to still be confused and divided at this point? especially with the fact that 2D has a black eye? There’s supposed to still be people that don’t trust him? 
The issue that’s been pretty consistent this whole.. year? is that there are people that don’t understand that he’s like… a character… and not a real person… so the fact that he use to be a fucking misogynist racist garbage fire… is ok? It actually makes him really interesting, as a character, because he’s clearly not anymore? But they want to treat him like a real person, and in real life when men are as god awful as Murdoc has been, you don’t give them a second chance because they actually hurt people when they don’t change… But that’s kind of proven to be the whole point of Murdoc’s character, that he IS changing… 
But that’s the other issue is that I don’t think most of these people are actually engaging with Gorillaz in the way it’s meant to be engaged with. Like, ironically, you should be engaging, to a certain extent, with the media as if they’re real people while also understanding the limitation of the fact that.. they aren’t… But the fact that people HATE Murdoc like on a real emotional level as much as some of these people clearly do tells me they can’t possibly be enjoying like… at least 50% of what Gorillaz has to offer. They aren’t laughing at his comedy, they aren’t saddened by his plight, they are invested and engaged with him as a protagonist… so… What in the story are you be entertained by? what are you paying attention to? The rest of the characters of course but… you have YEARS of the story where the other characters like.. arent’ even there. 
So then you have the rest of the characters who are also being treated like real people in real danger of Murdoc, as if wanting drama in the story is the same as wishing Rhianna and Chris Brown would get back together… it’s not the same thing… We don't give real-life abusers the sympathy we give Murdoc because there are real-life consequences to giving abusers a second-chances, and that’s a risk that a victim must choose to take or not, and not a fucking national audience. But since there isn’t a victim in Gorillaz (only character’s that play the role) we are allowed to engage with a story about an abuser being given a chance to change, and we’re allowed to be entertained by it and we’re allowed to say “I want to watch what happens when he gets a second chance.” and saying that doesn’t mean you want a victim to suffer for your entertainment because… 2D isn’t actually suffering… because only real people suffer… 2D isn’t real….. 
uummm.. anyway: I think people that came into this late and saw Murdoc on a surface level never felt like looking into him and therefore have just missed the point of like.. all of this… like, im glad ya’ll are enjoying the music and the art and the character designs but… you’re kind of actively trying to ruin the experience of those of us that want to enjoy ALL of Gorillaz, including the character development of the main protagonist… so.. stop.
