I was reminded today of the time I went to Walmart and saw signs on certain shelves and items that said DNI, and it was like a punch to the face because my stupid fucking tumblr rotted brain jumped to- "this nail polish does not want you to interact with it-" until I read the small print further which says the thing that makes way more sense which is, "Do Not Inventory."

Soooo, I've just found out about the Patton/RHCP feud and that Kiedis himself is personally responsible for sinking Mr. Bungle after the California release. Why isn't this more known?
I mean, I know about the Halloween mockery show, but it seems too mild a response for sinking a band's career - Patton is too much of a gentleman, this merited Mustaine levels of "never ever letting it go, ever", honestly. I mean, we spoke of what a pity it is that Mike didn't find more success as a film score composer, but it's even a bigger issue - a crime against music - that Mr. Bungle was cut off at its creative zenith.
Can we the Tumblr Patton fandom - all 6 of us - make it a big deal, retroactively, somehow?
Hey, remember when I used to like...be on tumblr??????
I'm so...SO sorry I'm late with this anon - but if you're out there, here we GO!
I mean, I personally dislike Kiedis anyways, and that very weird feud between him and Mike had been going on for like...a decade when California came out..all the while Anthony had always seemed like more of a whiny tart that was somehow offended by the one guy who wasn't out to steal his fame??? While Mike was just...his normal snarky asshole self who was also like...wtf, do I even know this guy??
BUT I would say it's a little too much to pin the full downfall of Bungle on him alone...like YES he really did do them dirty with the album release, and YES they would have made more during that tour if Kiedis hadn't shut them out of the festivals, but I do really think there were also underlying issues that would have led to a breakup, without all that. I think that tour, with all the technicalities of the sound/sample setup, and band members that were reaching their peak "what the fuck am I doing with my life" age of lower-mid-thirties while playing with people they knew in high school, the ones that weren't dead...the reception they got during the SnoCore section....it took its toll. Even though Mike had successfully(?) previously split his time between Faith No More and Mr. Bungle, Trey had Secret Chiefs 3, Trevor had Trio Convulsant and I just think....they decided to take a temporary break that turned into a semi-permanent break. Kiedis might have been a catalyst, but I think the chemistry was already there.
We all six of us love California with our full hearts, but let's be real, it wasn't going to be commercial success, even IF they had gotten their preferred release date. And the record company execs knew that...and they most likely knew what Californication was going to do....so they did record exec things and went with the profit potential...that's why it's a shit business...that's why Mike did his own thing. So....in a strange twist, without that, Mike might not have started Ipecac???
Honestly, the thing to be most angry about, I suppose, is that Kiedis had it in him to like....casually and deeply hurt people he didn't know at all (the rest of Bungle), just to spite one person (Mike)...and that most likely turned the band sentiment against Mike...even just slightly.
On a slightly different note....remember when FNM got fired from the GNR/Metallica tour bc Mike was being a little shit??? (I mean, rightfully so...but he was) That could have been career ending....but it wasn't.

I do wanna lowkey apologise if I've been unnecessarily critical of Hazbin Hotel in any way, there is a very high possibility I'm taking out a lot of shit on things I was disappointment with due to what's been going on in my life.
I'm sure the show's not terrible, and there are some things I am very interested in that have happened, I'm just very raw emotionally in general, and the negatives are not something I wanna pile on top of everything else, regardless of how inconsequential a cartoon is in the grand scheme of things.

cannot stop thinking about Gideon. or Kiriona. the Corpse Prince, Heir to the Nine Houses, first of the Tower Princes. because who is she? what is she?
her entire (re)introduction seems engineered to make you think someone has deepfaked Gideon. it gives wrongfeelings all the way down. Uncanny valley supreme. not only the name change but... we have never seen a Gideon this cold or uncaring, or just.... brutal. and some of the things Kiriona wants are just so alien. like she wants to become John's cavalier? what the hell, she never gave a shit about the empire or God or John. she seems generally apathetic twoards Harrow which is just so NOT Gideon I don't know what to say. Gideon's two settings re: Harrow are hatred and devotion. PLUS in our first (re)introduction, it is clear that the House appears to be trying to pass off an obvious corpse as their alive heir, which is like, so many levels of red flag warning. and then she comes back so... easy. she was just playing possum? Kiriona does not feel.... i dont know exactly. She doesn't feel real. She's like if someone read a manual on who Gideon was but only head the headings, and very quickly.
so like, i would be convinced she was Wrong or Someone Else/Someone New BUT!!!! then there are just enough moments of pure, genuine Gideon to make me feel confused. the way she bickers with Ianthe is definitely in character. and then there's her anger at how she was treated as a child and her heartbreak&hysterics -- so palpable even when seen through Nona's semi concious state -- when she finally fulfils her childhood fantasy of killing Crux, on p.473, the source of so much abuse, and it just doesn't feel good. like. her breaking down because it didn't feel good was so genuinely Gideon and so painful.
and then on p. 374, Nona realizes that Kiriona is the saddest person she has ever seen, and that's just-- idk how to explain it. my breath caught. Gideon IS there.
and then again on p. 411, Kiriona -- Gideon -- asks Nona if Nona loves Harrow. she asks if Nona knows where Harrow is. and there's just.... idk. that's Gideon!!!! through so many layers of trauma or detachment but it IS Gideon, asking, because she loves Harrow to death and beyond it, and Nona just doesn't care so that's all we get. but that is fucking Gideon. that tiny moment. and she just seemed so fucked up and sad and resigned.
maybe this is Gideon, but put through the sieve of so much trauma that she has become unrecodnizable. maybe this is only Gideon sometimes, and someone else other times. but what the fuck happened to her. how did she get there, what happened to her, what is going on during the moments when she is unrecognizable. what did they do to her over the six month time gap. who did this to her, how did they do it, and most importantly will we get to see Harrow tear out their intestines slowly.

hey since pride month is starting, i want to make it very clear i do not condone people who discourse or start arguments over labels and identities they dont understand. its none of your business if someone calls themself, for example, a bi lesbian. the least you can do, beyond being supportive of your queer peers, is keep your hate to yourself, because theres more important shit to worry about. if you come up to me personally to tell me to block someone for supporting bi/pan lesbians, transmasc lesbians, neopronouns or genders, asexuals, bisexuals, etc, then idk what to tell you, im probably gonna block you instead. the last thing i need to see is people trying to divide the community over harmless shit just because theyre unwilling to accept or understand the lgbt community, ok? thanks.
and no im not interested in debating this. i hate the discourse, im not getting involved, i didnt join tumblr to fight, dont bother me about this. accept others or leave me alone. i hope you can all understand this even if you disagree with my stance.
have a happy pride, everyone
