MACABRE
Artist: Dir en Grey
Subgenre(s): Kote Kei, Loud Kei
Rating: 5/5
Standouts: egnirys cimredopyh +) an injection, Berry, MACABRE
Dir en Grey quite literally never fucking misses and i’m left speechless every time. especially their earliest albums like WOW these are no-skip albums. they were putting out these masterpieces REGULARLY.
the first song sets the stage for the album quite well… weird and,, macabre is the best word i could find. i’m forever going to associate that word with this album, it’s synonymous for me now. even though you can make out some similarities between this and GAUZE, or VULGAR, it’s distinctly its own album and the similarities shared are just the Dir signature.
you can just tell it’s a Dir song every time huh? anyways, i loved the intricate care that clearly went into this album. it paid off amazingly for one of Dir’s first albums as Dir en Grey. it’s strange, it’s off putting, emotional, and unfiltered. i loved their experiments, like always, especially the voices on ‘Berry’ spoke to me.
you know what they’re trying to get across. Dir en Grey is not afraid to get into details, oftentimes looked down upon or taboo topics. even if just for shock value, Kyo’s lyrical genius is truly unmatched in any regard. love it love it love it.

VISUAL SHOCK - sometimes you have to promise not to fall in love~
Tumblr media
Here's a little character bio on Tai... if there's anything else you'd like to know, ask away in the reblogs, or tags, or send me an ask!
Check out the webnovel, if you're interested, to get a better idea of the boy: honeyfeed.fm/novels/12282
Art made using Midjourney [https://midjourney.com/home/] - yeah, I know, gross, but I can't draw and needed something for my story, and this works as good concept art for later. Once it's done, and I can pick from my fav scenes, I will be comm-ing the ever loving heck out of my fav artists!

Been seeing a lot of takes like this and I appreciate where they're coming from, it's a good idea to be especially wary of excessive criticism aimed at things made by and for women but like. Yes you do see hot takes about Marvel, and the lego movie, and Batman films. To say this with your whole chest you have to spend zero time in leftist circles and pay zero attention to criticism of big blockbuster movies or just. Yknow. Lie to make your point.
More relevantly you see this specific thing happen whenever a big corporation makes flaccid listless gestures towards progressivism for the sake of their bottom line. Because the end result is always too toothless to have meaning for leftists while still being offensive enough to right wingers simply by virtue of having a lot of women or gay people or people of colour in it to have them frothing at the mouth. Sexist dudebros hating Barbie doesn't shield it from feminist critique, they were going to hate it whether it succeeded or failed but it can still fail.
And as nice as the big feminist speach in barbie is I have to wonder if its primary purpose is to actually uplift women so much as it is to shut down criticism of the movie and the brand. If even Barbie can't escape this criticism what hope is there for the rest of us, right? Except Barbie isn't a real woman, she's a plastic toy made in sweatshops by a brand attempting to rehabilitate a progressive image out of a long history of being criticized for its portrayal of women because that's what will boost sales. This movie is part of that, and pointing that out is important.
You don't need my or ayone's permission to enjoy the Barbie movie, if it was meaninful to you I'm genuinely happy for you, if you just thought it was fun and funny, great! But to act like the only reason to criticize the movie is sexism is glossing over some very real problems and like, straight up falling for the corporate propaganda. Yes every big blockbuster movie actually does get criticized bc they are political tools that serve the people in power. Not every big blockbuster is also being sold as a feminist masterpiece though, so you probably are gonna hear it more about Barbie. You'll also hear it more about Barbie bc people are hypercritical of women and that will motivate some critique, but to assume bad faith is to shut out conversations that need to happen.

— ꒰‧⁺ DESERVING?.. ☁️ *ೃ༄
•ଓ.° [ <REDACTED> x GN!reader ] [ FLUFF ] [ SFW ]
Tumblr media
•ଓ.° baby is stiff! he looks like he’s in need of a massage, (posture is outrageous.) so you’re happy to give one to them!
[ REN BELONGS TO @14dayswithyou !!! ]
[ REVERSE comfort!! ] [ 18+ ] [ not proofread! per usual ]
———————————————————
you lay on your boyfriend's bed as you wait for them to detach from their computer.
you eye him once more as you speak up for what seems to be the hundredth time,
“babe.” you speak as deeply as possible, serious and concerned. you couldn't help it! you watched him hunch over his desk for a solid four hours without taking any break! it was worrying to see them strain themself so much without rest.
the man glances at you repeatedly —practically every two seconds— to which he’s met with the same disappointed look on your face every single time.
“ren, you need a break! im serious!” you exclaim, a hint of distress in your tone as you raise your voice slightly.
frowning, you watch as he /finally/ slips his hand underneath the screen. a button clicks as the display goes dark.
he rests his head on the back of his seat and takes a deep breath, pausing for a moment.
eyes on your lover, you hope they aren't upset with you.. it was just, the sight of him being hunched over for so long without stretching or standing worried you. the overall discomfort seemed to be taking a toll on him—
practically snapping you out of your thoughts, they use their arms to push themself upward. finally standing on his feet, just like you’d asked.
you feel a sense of relief at the sight.
he turns to face you with an unreadable expression.
“‘m sorry love.. i was so distracted-” he speaks, gradually stepping closer to you, their eyes focused on yours. “— forgive me?” he pleads, taking notice of your furrowed brows. you couldn't be upset. he did as you asked, even if you had to question them several times.
“forgiven.. now, sit honey,” you speak, patting the cushion beside you.
calmly, they sit down, reading your expression to see if you'd really meant your forgiveness.
untangling yourself from the sheets beneath you, you expose your legs and toss them on each side of your lover, straddling him. his breath gets caught in his throat at the sight of you, the pressure finally dropping in his lap.
“all your pleas jus’ for you to have me sit again? you sure missed me, hm?” he teases, hands slowly sliding up and down your thighs.
“of course..” you coo, gliding one hand up his tattooed arm, finally relaxing it on his shoulder. your other hand rests against their face. slightly moving their bangs out of the way, you reveal the glossy eyes underneath. “do you know how long you've been sitting?” you ask, noticing how his eye bags have suddenly grown darker.
“mmm.. dunno.” they hum, leaning into your touch.
suddenly, your warm hands find their way towards his neck, slightly rubbing circles around his collarbones with your thumbs. <REDACTED> closes his eyes at the relaxing touch, hands resting on both of your hips, pressing you even further down on their lap.
“feel good?” you whisper, not wanting to disrupt his peace.
“mhhmm..” he drifts off, head leaning forward a bit.
“shh..” you hush, “let me take care of you.”
placing a kiss on his forehead, you continue to run your hands gently up and down his neck, applying slight pressure.
over time, the tension being placed on his upper half begins to get more intense as you dig your palms into circular motions. the more you feel around, you can definitely determine the most tense areas.
<REDACTED> unexpectedly inhales sharply, hissing as you place even more pressure on his tense neck.
“you okay?” you ask, slightly removing your hands.
realization hits as their eyes shoot open. he practically snatches your wrist back with a loose grip. “‘m f-fine.. keep going angel..” he huffs, placing your hands back onto his tender skin.
“it feels good, yeah?” you smile, applying slight force once more.
“so good.. don’t stop, please.”
they relax into your gentle touch once more, surrounding themself in your scent.
the aroma and situation suddenly becomes overstimulating..
he swiftly envelopes you in a hug. his face hidden away in your neck as his eyes begins to sting. tears begin to form as the realization of the scenario sets in. how could he get so lucky?
“so good to me.. i don’t deserve it, angel.”

man this thing is crazy. I can’t show off half the things it does because the video/casting software needs some updates, but like....... I spent the morning sitting under a TREE creating 3d models IN THIN AIR.
it was absolutely surreal being surrounded by birdsong, warm sunlight, being able to see every leaf on the trees around me crystal clear....... AND being able to see AND INTERACT WITH virtual objects on top of reality with that same clarity.
just..... literal, real-life holograms. out in nature. words honestly cannot do it justice.
anyways. my new life goal is to get a solar-powered backpack charger and then never go inside again 🌳🌲🌴🍃
