#why havent i heard this before

[good-to-drive]

I know this may be beatles blasphemy but the Johnny Cash cover of In My Life is superior on every level

#love to the Beatles but Johnny just took me out #why havent i heard this before #he found depth and meaning in this song that John wasn't ready to be aware of #and never really got the chance to understand #don't imagine an 80 year old John singing in my life #you don't need that pain #in my life #the beatles #johnny cash

[synthshenanigans]

#i don't know what the hell possessed me to make this at 4am but i did #this is so stupid and yet this is so funny to me why #whose gonna be the JohnnyCash to my ChonnyJash 💔 #worst thing I've ever typed #i do not listen to Cash at all. only time is like on the radio & i havent heard him [that i know of] since i was like 10-12 & I am almost 2 #21* lol #but maybe love can change that ❤ [says the guy who is very aroace] #chonny jash #moss posts #has this joke been made before???? i have no clue

work on my aroace 101 presentation is going so well

#IT'S ACTUALLY GOING WELL JUST SLOW #when i'm all done i will probably post the script in some way. maybe as a pdf or something #it's intended to be super introductory as a resource so it might not be interesting to everyone if youve heard it all before #but im also putting so much work into it! i am getting paid but also i am proud of how it's turning out so far #wait why has powerpoint decided the language is english (switzerland) #anyway my work on this has just been hanging over me for uhhh a while now so i havent been able to do much Else because there's a DEADLINE #and it reminds me why i decided to Not Do academia ahaha

thinking about the saddest factory radio episode when all of boygenius were on and (8 minutes in) they're kind of gushing about elizabeth powell from land of talk and it's so so funny. thought i'd transcribe this one bit. the whole episode (sans songs) is here. lucy: "what's the singer's name again? she's so nice" julien: "and..." lucy: "and. her. arms. are- julien: "-NO! uuuuuuuh" lucy: "fold me in those arms" (idk if she says fold or something similar but w/e) julien: "AUUGGHHH!!" lucy: "i'm saying what julien wants to say" julien: "i am..."

julien being all 'i love arm' about elizabeth powell while everyone is 'i love arm' about her. something something cyclical gay experience

#idk why ive turned 'i love arm' into a term like this here but its necessary lol #the whole episode has some v fun anecdotes so i recommend if u havent heard before #boygenius #sry this post is long OOPS

has anyone heard of pluto tv ??? i literally just found out about it and i'm ???? so confused ?? how are they keeping this running,,, it's like 1000s of free shows and movies, theres some on demand and some that are just streamed live, and i cannot figure out where the fuck theyre making money or where the catch is???

this sounds like an ad HFSDGJKL but i'm just. really confused. and do not trust this LMFAO like theres GOTTA be a catch somewhere but i do not feel like reading through their legal jargon rn so. note to self i guess to look into this more

#theyve got classic star trek though..... #and the red green show wtf ?? this rules ??? #genuinely has anyone heard of this fdsjkl im losing my mind like. why havent i heard of this before and how are they making money #it doesnt look like theres any subscription service options ??? u dont even necessarily have to make an account???? #i dont trust this at all sdhgjkl like how are they keeping this up and running ??? #i'd LOVE for this to be a no-catch free streaming service but ... i am squinting #paramount seems to be the parent company so. hmmmm. #pippen needs 2nd breakfast

[selkiecoded]

okay thats interesting! in the SF try-outs during the song "legally blonde" she sings about how she cant be legally blonde, while in the official version AND THE DEMO she sings about letting her be legally blonde. which means that at some point they changed the lyrics around, and then changed them back! laurence o'keefe.... nell benjamin.... what occurs in your twisted minds

#covers mouth sorry so sorry guys #im a huge fan of beacon of positivity + good boy (elle puts a leash on emmett confirmed) + love and war (not in the demo but part of SF) #+ i liked some of the lyrics in the demo version of so much better (it called back to beacon of positivity!!! (i am insane)) such as: #I dream of your name next to my own but mine's looking fine up there alone #but i greatly prefer all the official songs we got. well. maybe good boy over ireland wouldve been fun (i think ireland is boring) #but itd play into the 'all men are dogs hurr hurr' joke that im glad they avoided. anyways. what was i saying. #right i havent listened to every version of everything yet (for example theres a SF version of chip on my shoulder i need to watch) #(and just the SF vers in general. shes hidden from me... why was emmett there before the remix... let me see their conversation) #but from what i have heard they made a lot of changes that were sorely needed. in take it like a man demo shes so much meaner?? #it made me sad. it wasnt a duet + they wrung out the romantic tension (no subtext by calvin klein... sigh) + shes meaner!!!! #in the bway vers hes baffled but enjoys going along w it + she genuinely likes him even when hes wearing his regular clothes #but in the demo vers she keeps calling him stuff like ugly duckling and talking about how the geek is gone :( but she likes that geek.. #the lines 'how much do you think i earn??' and 'kindly shut up :)' are funny but speak to a dynamic between the two that makes me sad... #follow me for more beautiful opinions on a fifteen year old musical #(heaves. do you know weird it is to see comments from 15yrs ago when this was actually showing. my brother is fifteen.) #god im so sorry i should be put down like a dog #lgb bootleggers are intense. i swear they got a bootleg every night or smth bc we got her shoe flying off + SF + kyle as understudy etc #go watch a so much better compilation sometime how did they take so many bootlegs?? how did you find them?? #and its awesome cause these were filmed on 2007/2008 tech which means they have 15 pixels maximum #SORRRRYYYYYYYYYY

very sad 90% (not all) of my relationships (friendship and otherwise) is reliant on just me making the first moves, whether it be texting first or even starting and maintaining conversations when we r in person. it's kinda so depressing and exhausting.

#hush jelly #vent #idk is it too much to wanna feel wanted #and if i mention it change only happens for a short time #then it just goes back to the way it was #n people always say they just dont want to feel rejected #and its like.... #someone isnt always gna wanna talk to u/hnag out etc. #but why should that stop u from trying #idk??? like i know people dont always wanna talk!!!! i still reach out #i still send them silly posts #i still text to check up #or talk to try and start conversation #its not always gna work #and what #just cause i didnt feel like talking once #suddenly youll never intiate again #suddenly its just not worth the effort to reach out and recieve nothing ? #like do u even really care if u dont at least try? #i still check up on people i havent heard from in months #i know its hard sometimes to respond to people #but its always worth the effort for someone u care about #and is it really so much to ask that they extend you the same courtesy #i can think of only two people in my life who do this for me excluding family #thats depressing #and its exhausting for me #my own partner wont text me first #like girl.... #i knoe u wanna talk to me #you have said it before

I am so tired of all new media being sequels and remakes and threequels and remakes and reboots and remakes and prequels and remakes and the lack of any creativity in nearly any creative field right now is absurd. I know Hollywood is allergic to change because that might not make a gagillion dollars for them but if you're that obsessed with money and also a vacuous black hole when it comes to creativity you should have been an econ major and gotten a job writing Business Insider articles and left creativity to people who know what they're doing.

#winters ramblings #like ANOTHER mean girls adaptation? ANOTHER fucking avatar adaptation that DOESNT GET WHY THE OG WAS GOOD? #which coincidentally is ALSO true of mean girls adaptations #like the new hunger games prequel too? yes i heard it was actually good but was it NEEDED? and why Snow for the main character? #yeah i know im going to watch is unlike the other listed media but what an ODD choice? to make SNOW the character we follow? #anyway im so tired of all these extremely blandass creativity sucking projects like for fuck SAKES make something INTERESTING #even if it sucks MAKE SOMETHING INTERESTING AND NOT RELATED TO ANOTHER FRANCHISE #does Harry Potter fucking NEED a god damn show?? havent the fantastic beast movies PROVEN theyve sucked all they can??!? #HOW MANY MORE REMAKES OF THINGS THAT ARENT EVEN OLD ARE WE GOING TO GET?? #BEFORE SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY UNDERSTANDS CREATIVITY DOES SOMETHING CREATIVE??!?!

listening to the cultaholic interview with kip and something about the moment where he talks about the box and says how it launched him into a deep depression during that time when he was on the shelf with the shoulder injury for months without anything to do and nothing but uncertainty about the future and his return just

MAN

#this.. this was literally me last year. this is the same thing. the same uncertainty the same suffering #i didnt put this together before for some reason even tho ive heard this story like million times before and i know these details so well #just.. i didnt think about it. but its literally like that for me too. like oh my god #as someone who has always had something going on in my life as i havent had unemployment periods this long ever its just. yeah #the uncertainty of not knowing where im going what im doing or whats going to happen #and if you know how important the boxman is to me.. yeah you know why this made me emotional #lemme just cry into my coffee holy shit boy #time doesnt heal it changes you indeed..... #box thoughts

i just think it would be sexy if buck got turned down as a donor because of his family medical history and broke down about it to eddie and was like 'idk, me and connor had a fling back in the day, but he said i wasnt what he was looking for....and i thought maybe this time id be able to give him what he was looking for' to which eddie could say bitch WHAT to buck constantly settling and devaluing himself and allowing others to devalue him. and at the same time the show would delicately and naturally let the audience know that buck is a queer man with a queer sexual history. idk just a thought

#its not a progressive storyline to have buck have been dumped in the past because hes a Man and his bf wants to marry a Woman #but at the same time i think its an elegant solution to the 'if hes interested in men why havent we heard about it before' conundrum #without having to have BOTH of them have a sexuality revelation #cuz as much as i think they've done enough narrative exposition to make it work i don’t think it would for the general audience rn #but this way its like 'hes repressed this part of himself cuz he got abandoned about it!' #911 spec #911 fox #evan buckley #buddie

@islandiis continued from here!

[sms]:  anyway!!  hi !  i figured itd be a bit silly to go all that way without yknow askin first so i sort of got ahead of myself

#HFJDKS SAAAAAAAAAAAAAME i was like. you posted that thing abt sending you memes & i was like #none of these are QUITE right but i GOT TO #IM EXCITED AS HELL #i was literally omw to bed and saw your answer and was like. well shit wait hold on #fannar asking if he lived Anywhere Remotely Nearby made sea b like. oh wait i didnt introduce myself why did i assume hed know who i am lmao #anyway the default feeling peter has is probably along the lines of #''i heard about the cod wars one time forever ago and i was like WOW i cant believe i have a new best friend'' #and then proceeded to be too self conscious to say anything #so thats where im at if that works for you! they could have talked a few times before if you like! #or if you think its more interesting if they havent then go with that! follow your heart #islandiis

At this point I hope the next time will be successful, either in that I do manage to leave or I do something so bad it can't just be brushed off and I have to get any form of help since I cannot keep going like this

#how many times have i gone through this now? #how many times do i have to be lied to #is there a limit to the number of suicide attempts and being able to get help? because for the last couple hours ive been so scared #what am i doing to me? why cant i stop it? #why is it that what i say is read as lies to them? #how many times must i beg because no one believes me. what makes me seem a liar #the delusions consume me and only in the times i can see it can i aks for help. but no. its all lies. because its so obviously false #what must i do to be heard #i regret saying anything about being trans #because that's such an easy excuse for them #yeah. havent spoken to you and no intention of listening. but you tried to kill yourself because youre trans #that was a whole appointment #the fear because even if i wanted help when suicidal (which isnt often because of trauma and delusions) i wont get any and i could just die #fuck them and their suicide prevention. where is it? #its traumatic enough going through an attempt. worse when the reality hits you at the lowest of times #it will happen before sunday thats for sure. best time to do it #the way they defend each other when they say something awful and i just want an apology or for someone to acknowledge it isnt kind

Shirley, I saw the asks about you're having British accent. While I can hear that on your writing, the 'you know' you drop at the end of sentence sounds very Asian to me. Singlish, probably, because I often hear that from people in Singapore and Malaysia (usually they say something like you know laaah~). Sometimes I say it too to emphasize the meaning.

I wish I took sociolinguistic seriously in uni because it's an interisting topic tbh. 😁

sociolinguistics???? that sounds SO cool the me that wished she took linguistics in uni is literally foaming at the mouth 🤣🤣🤣

ive always thought i had a pretty standard norcal/valley girl accent since i grew up in sf and was surrounded basically by valley girls. trying to get 'literally' 'like' 'so' out of my speech is an ongoing battle 😔 i do truncate and lose consonants while speaking, but thats harder to translate over the written word, as is my vocal fry. i adopted all this fancy vocabulary out of PURE spite from the first 2 years of schooling spent in esl 🤣🤣🤣

i picked up 'you know' (and puns) from valley girls stanning kim seokjin for....7....? years.....gods im old. my dad has been told often that he sounds singaporean and everytime he gets so insulted like his hk spirit is crushed x2 super effective damage 🤣🤣🤣 i wonder what he'll think when i tell him ppl think im singaporean chinese 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

yall have me convinced! i hope the next time i open my mouth in london ppl will stop looking at me like i commited unspeakable crimes on their royal language when the american accent IS actually the og british accent smh

#erl i typed a whole response and then tumblr ate it for elevenses TTTTTTTTTT #anyways ERL THE CACKLE I LET OUT AT 'YOU KNOW LAH' IM CRYING #gods i havent been back in sf since.....2011.........and the states since.......2017............wow im OLD #gotta go back stateside before they revoke my american citizenship 🤣🤣🤣🤣 #the next time some poor sod goes 'where are you FROM from' im gonna go 'yea im actually british you god me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯' #man i miss skateboarding down those hills......hk has hills but nothing beats sf you know? and macau is basically a pancake in comparison #i did spend like 2 years in vancouver and 1 year in france during the ~formative~ years and thats why i still have some british spelling #and now ive lived in a former british colony for a couple years teaching british english so im not That surprised? #but its really interesting to go from ditzy vapid valley girl to nerdy bougie british you know? #im very flattered even if you heard me you would be like......who invited this cali girl in? or WORST abg if ur a problematic yt man 🤣 #ans #muwutuals

[todayisafridaynight]

this isn't related to rgg at all but finding out you're also a fire emblem fan was great... first the mention of the ike figure then the insane por prices LMAO? i had no idea... what games have you played?

Back In My Day i was known as ‘the eliwood/elihec guy’ and on occasion The Ike Guy LOL but yeah…. Guilty as charged……

As for the games ive played ive played Shadow Dragon (DS remake), Shadows of Valentia, and then FE6-FE3H + FEW (minus Heroes of Light and Shadow)

im an asshole for playing on authentic software hence why i skipped out on FE1-FE5 but maybe one day ill stop being annoying and pick them up on an emulator. Or IntSYS remakes them <- doubtful (well. The rest of the JP-exclusive games anyway lol)

#snap chats #FE is like my DQ honestly LMAO i love the games so much #tho… cant say that nowadays… i havent played any of the new ones since FE3H #no particular reason aside from maybe not being too much of a fan of the art style #but i could just be a true geezer at heart and prefer the old pixel/portrait art of the 2000’s era #SoV’s portrait art is gorgeous tho. that games SOOOO good berkut’s still one of my fave antags to this day #oh but. in case you couldnt tell. FE7 was one of my faves to post for a while LMAO #it was the first game i got to play since my bro got it and let me play it #he also had sacred stones so i played that once i was done with FE7 #then i played brawl and fell in love with ike. as in Big Sword And He Punches/Kicks People #so….. i saved up to buy PoR and later Radiant Dawn (tho i got RD for. MUUUCH much cheaper) #and i mean i always thought marth was cute. And A Girl so when i was able to i got SD #not my favorite game ngl the cast was just. too huge and not memorable but i still love marth as a character #at some point i figured id try to play FE6 and bought a japanese copy (that i had ray chase sign actually) #the hit rate is fucking. ABYSMAL. and my JP was even worse than it is now BUT we got through it #the tellius games def have my fave cast and lore tho and i love the music. and Por do be on my baby the gamecube #and then i got awakening because my childhood bestie- who never played FE before- loved it a million so i figured why not #and then. My Insane Ass. she bought birthright and so of course i bought conquest #but then i heard about the removed features in the JP versions so i bought those and gave her my conquest copy #and then i paid her to homebrew my 3DS because I Am Stupid. so did i pay an obscene amount of money #to play Arguably the worst FE games Yes. but i got to use my ike amiibo so its ok :) #i love how i talk more bout fire emblem on my rgg blog than on my FE blog LMAO thats just how it be #but yeah those are my FE crimes thanks for listening LOL #i oughta cap it there i been talkin WAAAYYY too long LMAO
