James Taylor - Shed a Little Light (Video)

* * * *

There is a feeling like the clenching of a fist There is a hunger in the center of the chest There is a passage through the darkness and the mist and though the body sleeps, the heart will never rest Shed a little light oh Lord so that we can see Just a little light oh Lord...

~ from James Taylor's song " Shed a Little Light"

I don’t think any of the forthcoming vaults will recontextualize the album in quite the same way that Red’s vault did.

#taylor swift #like the vault added so much to the overall narrative of the album and shed light on stuff she hadn’t explored #it made so many songs have new interpretations and meanings #with rep’s vault I don’t think it would change much of that narrative given how little she’s talked about how rough that time was #so we have an idea of what she was feeling/going through #with debut’s we know a lot of the material already and that album doesn’t really have an overarching narrative #there could be some heavier emotional stuff/subjects lurking in 1989’s vault #and I feel like speak now is clear in its story and emotions as is

batman and catwoman have a primal kink thing going on so when she commits a crime and he chases her it's fine, it goes against his supposed motivation (stopping things like what happened to his parents) but I forgive him, it's CLEARLY a sex thing. but when any other superhero of that calibre troubles themselves with her it's just like. seriously?? a JEWEL thief?? aren't earthquakes happening right now, somewhere, at this very second, superman? is this really the best target for your brainwashing powers, zatanna? how about we leave that shit to actual law enforcement and focus on supervillains beyond their scope, natural disaster relief, minimising systemic issues, and preventable violence?

#(sorry to shed a light on ''conceits of the genre'' sometimes i like to take things seriously do u still think i'm sexy etc.) #comic books be BUT CRIME!!!! CRIMMINALSSSS ALL THE SAAAAME #(and look realistically catwoman-type crimes *can* branch out into something that's actually damaging #when you involve fences and money laundering -and the people who'd need it- and so on #but that's... rarely the point whenever a superhero goes after this type of crime #there's little examination it's just -as i said- ''it's bad because it's ILLEGAL''!! #and frankly i just think superheroes-are-actually-law-enforcers stories are like. the lowest form of entertainment in the genre. to me #i just happen to prefer other set-ups. which makes some of these stories a bit irksome to me lol) #talking to the void #my thoughts #dc #dc comics #batcat #catwoman #selina kyle #dc thoughts #tropes

“His name is Blackbeard, DOG” when literally everyone and their mother is calling Ed “Eddie” LMAO

#OFMD #OFMD Season 2 #OFMD S2 Spoilers #Edward Teach #I love it so much as a nickname for him #Like it’s so cute #And it’s also so interesting because like #I feel like it humanizes him where all these people are trying to DEMONIZE him #Something something Ed feeling like he’s ‘the devil’ but then all these people around him are calling him Eddie 🥺 #And he clearly has no qualms about it either #So I feel like it’s very much a push/pull in the narrative #There’s a force trying to make him this scary larger than life thing #And then there’s a force saying that he’s actually just A Little Guy Actually #There’s a darkness trying to paint him as something he isn’t #But then also a light shedding warmth on who he actually is #…Something something ANCNWND #MIGHT NOT EVEN BE THAT DEEP BUT REGARDLESS #IT JUST FEELS SO SO SWEET 🥺

there is NO way the 501st DIDNT have a holonet blog full of posts such as: “oh my god the general just jumped out of *another* burning building seconds before it exploded…. Honestly why do I even try to keep him from dying- R”. The blog has a vague name like “behind the battles” so nobody’s really sure what legion is running it but there’s definetly some theories. It’s run by anakin, rex, kix (sometimes), and ahsoka (with the occasional posts from fives and echo whenever they manage to steal Rex’s data pad). It’s very popular and they often do fundraisers for the more war torn planets who need the support. Everyone has fun running the account and it’s also letting the citizens understand that the clones are people too! Not just. Soldiers for the republic purely from dumb things like “ugh nerf gun nights with heavily trained clones is the worst!! I just got nearly hit by some darts that were on FIRE! How did anyone even do that????- T” everybody just uses one initial at the end of their posts because they think it’s funny seeing people make completely wrong guesses as to who’s who (ahsoka used T bc she’s commander tano, Rex uses R, anakin uses S (skywalker) or A(anakin) just to add another layer of confusion, fives uses 5 of course, echo uses E, you get the idea)

#The 501st #clones #rex #captian rex #kix #fives #arc trooper fives #echo #arc trooper echo #ahsoka #commander tano #Ahsoka tano #anakin #anakin skywalker #General skywalker #bullshit with a benefit #Every post is just shedding a little light on the special brand of chaos the 501st has #I may of already posted about this idea #I do not care #Clone wars #star wars #star wars the clone wars #Tcw #sw #swtcw

Little tangent about my journey with the QSMP fandom <3

First, I'm going to preface this post by saying, I wouldn't have been interested in the server, been introduced to so many communities, languages, and cultures, if not for the eggs and the admins. So, I initially gained interest when I saw a lot of people posting about Tallulah and.... Misclick duo (lmao) so I decided to check out what everybody was talking about mid-April 2023.

I watched Philza's April 29 VOD- "last" day of the eggs. Absolutely loved Chayanne and Phil planting potatoes because of Phil telling stories about Techno. Cried like a baby after. So now I'm invested.

I downloaded Twitch the next day, in time for the Brazilians' arrival. My main pov continued to be Philza, so I was a Crow for quite a while, mostly into the summer. I started watching Cellbit when the mystery really started to ramp up by the end of May.

Then Bobby died and everyone's reactions made me sob for like, a week.

Summer was probably the most time I've had fun watching QSMP. I don't know why, but it was such a good era, despite the discourse about elections lmao. I began to gravitate more towards watching Foolish's pov and when Jaiden began streaming every day, I had her as my main pov as well. Shoutout to the doozers and Jaiden mains <33

Then, Tina and Bagi arrived and I began religiously watching them as well for, uh. Reasons 🏳️‍🌈 XD. Got invested in Bagi's lore and then everybody became really busy during October so Bad and Bagi were pretty much the only ones consistently on the server XD.

Then, and only then, did I hear little whispers about q!Badboyhalo's soul vultures and possible death? And I got really really interested then. And that's where the Ghostie era started lmao. Up to now, Bad is the only person I'd watch consistently and keep up to date on his lore because well, after the soul vultures arc and especially Sweet Despair, you can't really go back to anything else after that you know?

Of course, without the QSMP, I don't think I would've discovered/re-discovered so many wonderful streamers like Fit, Tubbo, Étoiles, Mouse, or Baghera to name a few.

The past few weeks have probably been the shittiest and most anxiety-ridden weeks for me ever. But, I don't want all the negativity and anxiety to overshadow what was, for me, THE most special and unique fandom experience I've ever had. The QSMP is such a special project, there's no doubt about that. I want that to continue.

So, if this post can offer any sort of positivity and relieve some of the dread we've all been feeling, to any person from any community, that would mean so much to me already.

Send love to and the utmost kindness and care to any and all ex admins, and continue to show your support for the current admins too please. It will take a long time for this to be resolved, and it's terrifying I know, but all we can do is support each other and wait.

Remember to always take care of yourselves and no matter what happens, it always rains before you can see a rainbow right? So, in other words, things will become worse before they can get better. Idk what will happen with the QSMP, but know that life becomes better eventually. No matter the outcome, you'll be ok. We'll all be ok. <333

Edit: oh my god I just realized qsmp 1st anniversary isn't tomorrow. Today is the 20th djrjtbrbebd

There's still 2 days but um everything else I said is still true XDDDD

#qsmp #Everybody seems really down lately- for valid reasons of course #so I just wanted to share a little positivity on the tag for now #since QSMP's 1st anniversary is tomorrow #I want to talk a little bit about my QSMP journey #and I'm also inviting anybody else who sees this to share their journey as well- if you want to do so #sorry for the very long post guys #i just have alot of thougts i wanted to share #and hopefully shed some light among the discourse yk? #this sounds like a goodbye its not XD

new rarepair acquired kakashi and shizune date for about a year while kakashi is hokage it started when shizune got tired of seeing him overworked and stressed and tired and went LORD HOKAGE SIR I AM TAKING YOU OUT TO DINNER and they have dates and sneak off to make out on the roof at night and kiss when no one is watching them in the hokage office and they literally act like teenagers with their first love because kakashi didnt get to be a normal kid much less a normal teenager who gets to do stupid stuff and probably neither did shizune so now they're in their 30s and ordering expensive take out with the hokages money to eat in their pajamas on the living room floor

#they break off after a little over a year but its mutual and literally no venom or bad feelings #they were just ready to move on to other things #namely kakashi has a crush on iruka #shed probably help him with it too #like even after theyre not together they remain besties #overall it is very healthy and light and they both needed that #also shizune would probably be kakashis first real girlfriend #bc here are the hc we came up with me n abbey #obito was his first crush #then rin was his first kiss #tenzo was his first love and his first time - they didnt really date but they had some sort of relationship #he tried kissing gai when they were both drunk. the conclusion is that the kiss is good #but they're just besties #and then shizune #qnd after shizune theres iruka and theyee old and gay and narutos dads #these ttags got long. its 1:30 am

#hopefully it'll shed light on some things ! i really like it. #fleshed rules out a little more too. #♡ . out of ascots.

this is a genuine question and im curious to know the answer from ppl who actually watched it:

is High Guardian Spice ACTUALLY bad? or is it like those cases where most of the people who hate it dislike it because it has canon LGBT characters, and in a bid to find middle ground, LGBTs disown it & dismiss its merit because of the general bad press?

not that this ever happens or has ever happened in the past with any other property. this is just a made up scenario out of an infinite amount of possibilities and im randomly wondering if this 1 random scenario is what happened.

#i was thinking about watching it #and i may still watch it regardless of other people’s answers #but im wondering if there are any diehards who can #shed a little light beyond saying: it sucks because i hate it

our blessed syntax seminar vs our wretched syntax lecture

#ok picture this. weve been talking of little else nay of nothing other than the x bar theory in the seminar since the start of the semester #along comes mr squirrel today in the lecture and he says things about about the x bar theory that directly contradict everything #we've been going kver in the seminar for weeks #i dont get it... well anyway maybe next light will shed some light on it #these linguistics teacher love to say one thing one week and then say 'haha gotcha! now forget about all you heard last week haha' the next #so im hoping this is the case here #my post #why cant i form a sentence.... too much syntax for one day perhaps

I'm starting to get concerned that I accidentally locked myself out of Halsin's romance, like I lifted the shadow curse and everything but I've got his approval to "Very High" in act 3 and still nothing... I can't tell if I just need to get it higher still or if I missed something in Act 2??

#bg3 #halsin #if anyone can shed light on this I'd appreciate it #did a little googling but it didn't really help

@saeths just started a new game

we pretend we don't notice nightshade at first (even though he's hanging out with us) and then go 'omg is that nightshade? i didn't know you were here?"

nightshade is going BONKERS

full body wriggles and delight and his ears and head and butt flopping like crazy as he undulates in joy

and then we take turns on separate sides of the bed/room/couch to step in and go 'omg nightshade? WHEN DID YOU GET HERE BABY?"

we did this back and forth and back and forth until he got tired of 'being forgotten' and just flopped over next to me (also conveniently making sure that i can't leave without climbing over him)

whao holy moly! There's some talented people under my posts 😳

#shedding light on this little convo if you dont mind

[dr3amofagame]

c!Purpled's first interaction with c!Dream post-alliance is one of the most interesting missed lore opportunities pre-LN5.

strongly agree / agree / ambivalent / disagree / strongly disagree / don’t care whatsoever

i'm saying yes bc any and all c!dream content is smth to die for, but at the same time outside of the whole c!Q thing i don't know what i'd particularly want out of a c!purpled and c!dream interaction tbh. as much as c!dream talks abt the c!Q thing in terms of revenge, in comparison to c!purpled i think it's p obvious that what drives him is more primarily the need to prove that everything that happened to him is behind him and that he's Over It etc. i think a conversation w/ them talking abt quackity would've been fun for sure ... besides that, tho, idk. purpled and dream fought on the same side before but weren't particularly close, and i can't think of any things that i would really want from an interaction between the two of them besides the Q thing? as far as LN5 goes, having greater emphasis on that happening bc of c!Quackity and what c!Quackity did definitely wouldn't have hurt it, but I also I would've preferred more with c!Quackity being directly involved in that case 🤔...anyway, any c!dream content is good content in my opinion XD but no super strong feelings on the subject

#my asks !! #dsmp hot takes asks #would it have been fun? absolutely #but i can't think of what would make it particularly interesting to me personally #unless we subscribe to my belief of punz going behind dream's back a little in LN5 #bc that could shed some light on c!stageduo dynamic in a way i would enjoy
