"I was at the Grammies sitting behind Chuck D and across from Elvis Costello when I began writing Infinity on High. As I sat there in my Sunday best (I splurged on an Italian maroon ascot) watching Stevie Wonder and Alicia Keys duet a capella, I decided in a room full of innovators that on our two previous albums, I had contributed nothing to pop music.

My saying so is in no way meant as a slight to our indie debut Take This To Your Grave, a strong if derivative pop-punk album from a young band yet uninterested in finding itself. I have slightly less positive things to say of its successor, the exponentially more successful but creatively inconsistent From Under the Cork Tree, for which we were nominated that night.

It dawned on me that, were we to win, we wouldn’t have deserved it. We rightfully lost. I rode back to my hotel, ripped the ascot out of my collar, walked across the street, ate dinner alone, and wondered to myself what would have to change in order for me to feel more comfortable with accolades.

Fear. I was afraid of being who I was musically. Pete was always honest and brave lyrically. Joe and Andy were in their playing as well. But I was timid and hid behind convention as well as re-imaginings of other people’s innovations.

I went back to my hotel and began simply writing without fear of how our audience or critics would react. When we ultimately recorded, I sang how I did at home for myself, not in the way I had learned to sing “punk rock.”

While I won’t say Infinity on High was our best Album, I will say it was a watershed for me creatively. Zero Grammy nominations though."

Still baffled that Hopes so blatantly wrote Claude as the typical Evil Vaguely Middle Eastern Man set on destroying the Good White Nation for his Evil Vaguely Middle Eastern Nation that is often seen in fantasy settings - complete with him being seen as worse than a white woman who does many of the same evil deeds he does in-verse, even by his friends (should it be the bad ending route of SB) - and so many in the fandom were so eager to gobble that shit up. INSIST that "Clearly A Racist Stereotype" is LEAGUES better than "Subversion Of A Racist Stereotype" even. Like I don't think I'll ever get over how supremely fucked that is

#clyde discourse #anti clyde #like if you ever want a reminder that CIaude plays second fiddle to the other two lords in the fandom's mind here it is this is it #Hopes couldn't be more blatant in how much it wanted CIaude to be EdeIgard's fall guy in two out of three routes #with how they play switcheroo with their character traits #CIaude becomes the imperialistic violent invader who's willing to sacrifice innocents lives for his own gain #and who doesn't give a shit to recognize information that contradicts his beliefs #and EdeIgard becomes the one who always strives for the most peaceful means to resolve conflicts #(just ignore how she's the one who started the conflict like how what everyone in Hopes does - she has her reasons don'cha know!) #like i swear to god hearing all of these people try to sell the dumbass one-note Boss Bozo that is Hopes!CIaude #as ''more interesting'' than his 3H iteration will make my brain leak out of my nose #''what if our first POC lord was a violent evil invader who tricks everyone into thinking he's a good guy'' #is not the fucking win you think it is. #like y'all this is PEAK racism. this shit isn't interesting it's brazenly disrespectful #''b-but he's not a bad guy in Hopes!'' THE SHIT HE PULLED WITH SRENG MAKES HIM OBJECTIVELY EVIL LIKE OH MY GOD SHUT UP #there's shit all ''gray and nuanced'' about him needlessly worsening foreign relations WHEN HIS WHOLE SHIT #IS ABOUT BE T T E R I N G FOREIGN RELATIONS. it is clear that in Hopes he either is too braindead to realize the contradiction #or it's just not what he gives a shit about in actuality and he's just saying it is to come across better #with recent reblogs thought i'd post this draft because WOW do people just. not give a shit #''uhm calling something racist is racist ackchually 🤓'' get your dumbass outta here

When it comes to John, I have zero interest in condemning him. First of all, it's boring. You mean destroying the world and lying to your friends about it is bad? Shocking. Groundbreaking character work.

Second of all, I'm just not all that comfortable with condemnation in general, not when it comes to whole-ass people. Actions, for sure. I am ready to wholeheartedly condemn pretty much every decision this man has ever made, but I'm only comfortable doing that with a side of compassion for the man himself. Tamsyn said once in an interview that some of the discussion she's seen about Harrow is unintentionally very cruel to people with mental illnesses, and I feel similarly seeing a lot of the discussion around John. If I'm going to try to figure out where he's coming from, why he did the things he did, and what he thought he was accomplishing by doing them, I'm not at all interested in coming at those questions with contempt or disgust.

To me, the main question when it comes to John is: What do you do when you feel that you're unforgivable? That you've fucked up so completely no one will ever love you again, unless you lie and trick them into it? How do you deal with shame? And while part of the answer is definitely "Holy shit, not like that," what I'm most interested in is: what should he have done instead? At what points in his narrative could he have changed his course? And at what point, if ever, did he become right about it being impossible for him to dial it back and turn around?

#I'm not sure I ENTIRELY grock where the series is going with this #because the philosophical framework centering forgiveness is a little strange to me #but I can roll with it #it seems like the same assumption that people are generally by nature neutral to good and always capable of change #just with an external actor providing an extra step #the locked tomb #ntn spoilers #john gaius #emperor john gaius #anyway maybe it's a strange distinction to make but I'm absolutely down with talking about how incredibly fucked up he is #how outright evil most the shit he does is #and how it's poisoned the cultures of the Nine Houses from the top down #but when it comes to like.... reading him as if he's incapable of human feeling that kinda skeeves me out #and when it comes to how he fails to live up to every single one of his ideals #and destroys every relationship that's ever meant anything to him #I can only kind of pity him y'know #sooo long story short I promise to never claim that being unable to relate to other people or not feeling empathy makes you evil #pinky swear

One of my fav parts of Neverwinter is when in the sewers Drizzt starts info dumping about snake behavior to Mr. "Has previously gone on a dramatic monologue about shark behavior" and Mrs. "I am terrified to death of snakes"

#i think if Artemis showed Dahlia an Arabian sand boa she would not be afraid of snakes anymore #tenderly shows you the most goofy looking snake alive #the legend of drizzt #snake of make you confront trauma and have connections #the most dnd shit ever #when you start dating because a snake made you realize that you related to someone #in the sewers #dahlia sin'felle #drizzt do'urden #artemis entreri

I've said this before but modern au where the party's collective special interest is warrior cats instead of dnd so they call themselves the clan

#first and foremost the most important thing about st is that the party are LOSERS #if you ever forget this fact you end up MILES from the characters we know and love #anyway they hissed in the hallways at least once I know it #max not giving a shit about dnd translates to her being a pjo kid instead #not that there weren't kids who read both series I'm sure the party would like pjo too #but I feel like you were either a pjo kid or a warrior cats kid. not really both simultaneously #or at least that was my experience lmao #I was a pjo kid and I always see people online pick on or the other so. idk I didn't really think too hard about this #stranger things #byler #<- not byler related sorry #the party

There’s millions of Lion King fanfiction stories about Mufasa and Scar’s backstory written by twelve year olds that I’m positive have more creativity and better writing than whatever bullshit that Mufasa movie is gonna shit out

But maybe that’s because those twelve year olds actually love and care about the movie they’re writing fanfiction for 🙄

#making mufasa adopted is the most bullshit thing I’ve ever heard #remember his speech to simba about the great kings of the past? #lol just kidding son I’m adopted so those great kings actually have no relation to us #bull-fucking-shit #disney #the lion king #mufasa: the lion king

Just finished reading the perks of being a wallflower and It’s gotta be the best book I’ve ever read in my whole entire life. I just want to cry because I know I’ll never be able to experience this for the first time again.

don't ever look at popular social media personalities opinions on or check the tags related to a movie explicitly about the queer experience Worst mistake of my life. every single time a queer movie has gotten popular cishet people come out in droves to posit that Actually, my interpretation of the film where instead of being weird faggots everyone is normal is Just as valid as your stupid gay interpretation . and I'm meant to be like yeah okay

#yes i saw todd in the shadows tweet about i saw the tv glow yes im mad about it #for someone whose entire career spanning over a decade is built upon scrutinizing art #youd think he wouldnt have maybe the most dense idiotic take on this explicitly trans movie that ive ever seen in my life #“what if the curtains are just blue” type shit. never graduated from picture books type of reading comprehension #and i LIKE his videos and i have for years. this shit was just maybe the dumbest thing hes ever said #and i feel like since hes an out and proud lefty guy that people give him too much slack for very much still being white and cishet #not that those are things to be ashamed of but they do obviously color his opinions and the things he says #and for what its worth heres your obligatory reminder that this post is hyperbole lest anyone be offended #that im mocking their favorite internet personality. i guess #can we not just have literally a single thing that belongs to us. must we always cede ground to allowing alternative interpretations #to art that is explicitly about us. #god forbid. GOD FORBID anything not be for the majority audience. GOD FORBID anything be made by us for us #and GOD FORBID anyone ever have to admit that they just fundamentally cant relate to something that isnt about them #whatever i will probably delete this later because im not like a “discourse account” #and im mostly just ranting about a singular interaction i saw on twitter #but a lot of people have been having horrible opinions about this movie and its making me evil #through the teeth #i saw the tv glow

I was reminded of the time that tumblr tried to make "monster high but with tumblr sexymen", and one of the characters was (obviously) the daughter of the once-ler.

And the funny thing to me about that is that in the canon of the illumination lorax movie, the once-ler is heavily implied to have an estranged daughter. I don't know all the sexymen off the top of my head but I think he might've been one of the only ones referenced in that trend who actually had a daughter in his own canon.

#Stupid shit #I'm gonna provide context in the tags for those who want it but I also like the idea of just leaving it there #Okay so for anyone who wasn't in the fandom: when people say the movie gave us no one to ship the Once-ler with they were LYING #The movie gave the Once-ler no MALE characters to ship him with - thus Oncest started #However - the second most popular Once-ler ship was between him and Norma #(Who - if you haven't seen the movie in a while - is Ted's grandmother who tells him about the Once-ler and how to find and barter with him #This was mostly just a ship born from theory and logical deduction - why does Norma know so much personal info about the Once-ler? #Were they perhaps friends? Lovers? In the past? Where was she in his life and at what points? When did she leave? #And people started making theories and shipping the two - primarily as past lovers. But there was art of them reconnecting for sure. #HOWEVER - this also meant that there was a theory that Ted's mom was also related to the Once-ler #As in - hmm this daughter of a very short fat woman is oddly tall and thin... hmmm #And so the running theory wasn't just that the Once-ler and Norma were once lovers - but that the Once-ler was also Ted's grandfather #Who was entirely estranged from the family due to self-exile and possibly bad blood between him and Norma at some point during his downfall #(I actually do think that it's funny that the Once-ler's youngest design purposefully draws some comparison between him & the Truffula tree #Only for the character theorized to be his daughter to also evoke some Truffula tree imagery in her design) #ANYWAYS that was a theory for about as long as the movie was out - Normaler (the ship) was a thing for as long (if not longer) than Oncest #And was present enough that there were like actively flame wars between the two groups of shippers #Like literally I directly remember this it's so insane to me that no one ever brings this up when talking about the shipping in this fandom #BUT THEN!!!! The Lorax comes out on DVD. The fandom rejoices and everyone takes pictures of themselves buying or holding the DVD. #If you dig far enough and I haven't deleted it yet you might find mine. I was in full cosplay wig and all. #Anyways - we have the movie in HD now!! No more cam rip footage!!! #And now we can take high-quality screenshots that truly show off the detail of the backgrounds in this movie #(The fandom loved to gush about how detailed and well-designed the movie's backgrounds were - that wasn't just a throwaway transition) #Only - what's this????? #In one of the shots at the end of the movie - we very briefly get to see the inside of the Once-ler's lurkim - like the living room #AND THERE - IN THE BACKGROUND - ONLY VISIBLE IN HD #IS A PHOTOGRAPH OF A WOMAN WHO SUSPICIOUSLY HAS THE EXACT SAME SILHOUETTE AS NORMA #Normaler fans rejoice and 'Grandpa Once-ler' theory is accepted into canon (or - more accurately - 'implied canon') by most fans #So yes - for those keeping track - while the evidence wasn't as concrete as it could have been #The Once-ler is implied to have been the father of Ted's mom in the movie

[aboutmetamorphosis]

really fucking disgusted by how easily some people will put their morals and empathy aside to “defend their fave”

#anyone who knows me knows i'll hardly ever speak out about anything 1D fandom related on main bc i really couldn't care less about most shit #but this is just BEYOND like #when your reaction to a young woman talking about how she was forced to get an abortion (and had to go by herself) #is ‘oh she’s trying to ruin his career! he’s done nothing to deserve this!’ you’re absolutely rotten to the core #and i’ve seen SEVERAL people worried about his ‘reputation’ #y’all are sick for real

they werent lying that knuckles series barely has knuckles in it

#i pirated that shit Btw just so we're clear. also gonna talk about it a little bit in the tags #nothing too spoilery but also might not wanna read if you want to go in knowing absolutely nothing? idk #anyway he WAS a main character still he was present for a decent amount of the first couple episodes #but the amount of screentime he gets just starts dropping after that . hes barely there at all in the second half ??? #and it feels like theres a lot of scenes mostly focusing on wade and his problems and not near as many for knuckles and his whole deal #overall it feels more like a wade show with knuckles in it than a knuckles show with wade in it. which sucks #and human characters having plot relevance isnt the problem here i dont mind human characters at all i think they can be really fun #its the fact that the human characters are taking over the story and spotlight when the show is called knuckles #and all the marketing makes it look like knuckles is the main focus #and i also would have preferred if they just went with a differnet character to be knuckles' human friend #because i dont particulraly care about wade. and the knuckles (and sonic and tails) i know would not be friends with cops </3 #well at least the story wasnt knuckles training wade to be a better cop like a lot of people were expecting but thats like.the bare minimum #also aside from the issues relating to knuckles' screentime (or lack of screentime) i thought the ending was unsatisfying #regardless of all that though there WERE some parts i enjoyed or found kind of funny or whatever. because knuckles so cutesy as always #knuckles being a cute little guy is the most important part of the show actually #and i liked the parts with sonic tails and maddie even if they were only there for like 5 minutes #(i really wish those three had gotten more screentime. i feel like they could have easily worked in at least one more scene with them) #and its a minor thing but the opening sequence is cute. was honestly expecting just a title card or something #overall the show is just . kind of okay i guess. not the worst thing ive ever seen but still disappointing ? idk how to explain.. #my expectations also werent very high in the first place #so maybe im being a bit more generous than i would have been otherwise. idk #and i definitely would not recommend this to anyone who already dislikes the sonic movies . youll probably hate this more #like people who thought the human characters got too much screentime in the second movie would lose their minds if they saw this

since it went around a few days ago and i just got reminded of it

im trans and i hate the usage of the whole tme/tma shit. As much as I came to feel about dmab/dfab (and the variants thereof) as i got older and chilled out about gender. dmab/dfab also really got taken out of the contexts in which it was useful and was misapplied to become woke gender markers. which are all that tme/tma are. it's just the latest polite way to be "excuse me ma'am do you have a dick or not". fuckin hell let's just move on and stop framing the conversation like that.

#not to mention bluntly the usage of the terms is really misapplied #stop talking about people in relation to cultural and society wide prejudices? #labels and lack of priveleges don't exempt you from examining your actions your words and your thoughts #some of the most vile transphobic shit i've ever encountered came from other trans women #sometimes someone's just an asshole and you need to just identify them as an asshole #without fitting their assholeness into the grand matrix of IS THIS BEHAVIOR PROBLEMATIC
