Mini Silverborn Countdown
If you’ve been around for a few years, you’ve seen me vaguely mention a “Silverborn Countdown Challenge” several times. It’s been delayed and changed as many times as the book itself, lol.
If anyone wants sort of a low-stakes, very chill and spaced out version of this ye olde never tackled challenge to complete in the next year before Silverborn, I propose what I’m doing:
Every 3 months leading up to the initial release, I am creating one thing based on each of the books.
January — Nevermoor
April — Wundersmith
July — Hollowpox

howd u decide on a skunk for ur fursona ? is it just cause u like them or was there like a big thought process behind it?
no thought process....! i cant even remember why i picked a skunk, but then again smunker was just a general mascot at first. the appreciation for em came after. idk. i guess i just thought they were cute, couldnt think of another animal, wanted a more uncommon fursona etc

Top Albums of 2023
Hello everyone!
It's that time of year again! For me personally, it's been a hectic year, but an exciting one too. I did my best to keep up with new music, and listened to new albums with pretty good regularity, however I didn't find myself revisiting a lot of new records, at least not yet. In the list to come, I definitely see most of them as growers, records I'll fall in love with in the years to come, that already have left a strong impression on me. Just this year alone I spent a lot of time with 2022 releases I adored like Alvvays' Blue Rev and Panda Bear & Sonic Boom's Reset, and another record I'll give special mention to in a minute. I'm hoping to fall more in love with these records, and all the records I missed this year! Let's dive in
My Favorite Record from 2022 That I Listened to For the First Time in 2023: MJ Lenderman - Boat Songs
Tumblr media
Ripping off this gimmick from Steven Hyden, who actually put this record tied for the #1 spot last year (with Big Thief's fantastic double album that was in my own top 10). I really became enamored with the alt-country sound this year, and this record was just the perfect scratch for that itch. The songs veer from aching to rocking, sometimes in the same track. My absolute favorite song of the year was "You Are Every Girl to Me" on this album, which evokes such strong feelings in me it's hard to describe. MJ had a big year being part of Wednesday, but I'm excited to see where he goes next as a solo artist!
Honorable Mentions: The Replacements - Tim (Let It Bleed Edition) M83 - Fantasy Alan Palomo - World of Hassle Greg Mendez - Greg Mendez Olivia Rodrigo - GUTS
10. Sufjan Stevens - Javelin
Tumblr media
I've been a Sufjan fan for a long time now, probably around 8 years or so. I've always admired his ability to capture such intimate feelings with such sweeping and varied instrumentations. His last full length under his own name, The Ascension, came out in 2020, when a lot of new music wasn't really sticking with me. The Ascension had the same vastness that I came to know in Sufjan's work, but it felt slightly distant. Javelin closes that gap. From social media posts, it seems like Sufjan has had a tough year, and this record is about grappling with pain and loss. Removed from that narrative, the songs here build and grow with such beauty that although I've only listened in full once, I'm almost saving myself from the full wallop I know this record will give me once I really dive in. Thank you Sufjan, for everything.
Crucial track: "Shit Talk"
9. Squid - O Monolith
Tumblr media
Squid are an exciting band to come out of the vibrant post-post(-post?)-punk scene in England. I really liked their 2021 debut, Bright Green Field, but it was sprawling and epic, and it could feel tough to revisit. O Monolith takes everything that was great about BGF and builds on it, while also focusing in a bit more. With 8 songs at about 40 minutes, this record experiments with post-rock-esque tension builds, vocoders, and engaged, involved guitar work. I feel like these songs will work well live as well. Excited to see how this band continues to grow!
Crucial track: "Siphon Song"
8. Wednesday - Rat Saw God
Tumblr media
I know, I know, how surprising. I am not immune to Wednesday's Rat Saw God being on my year end list. Despite not having listened to this record a ton, I can definitely already feel like this is going to go down as a critical cornerstone of where alternative/guitar-oriented rock music will go for maybe the rest of the decade. As I fell in love with MJ Lenderman's Boat Songs, I grew to appreciate this record more and more. With huge, crushing fuzzed-out electric guitars mixed with beautiful pedal steel, it's really hard to resist this record's charms. Even revisiting their 2021 record, Twin Plagues, was a delight. Can't wait to listen to it more!
Crucial track: "Chosen to Deserve"
7. JPEGMAFIA & Danny Brown - SCARING THE HOES
Tumblr media
Another hyped up album I couldn't help but put on my list. While not being super long to begin with, this record flies by, and it can be hard to miss everything. I've been a fan of Danny Brown for awhile, and have skirted around JPEGMAFIA's work, so this was a good introduction to hear them work so well together. JPEG's production here is insane, and both are firing at full mischievous speed. Just check out that sample at the end of "Fentanyl Tester".
Crucial track: "Fentanyl Tester"
6. Mitski - The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We
Tumblr media
Yay! Mitski! After the kind of underwhelming Laurel Hell from last year, this record finds Mitski back at nearly full strength. Again, my weakness for pedal steel bleeds through, and I love Mitski experimenting with a new, more acoustic and natural sound. This is another record I haven't listened to more than once or twice yet, but I'm still excited to fall more in love with it. She's back!!
Crucial Track: "Bug Like an Angel"
5. The Tubs - Dead Meat
Tumblr media
As a huge fan of bands such as Los Campesinos! and Martha, I've always had a soft spot for British rock bands with heart. The Tubs are no different, and in my year-end revisit, this record really stood out to me. It has the jangle of old British folk and early R.E.M. with the propulsion of Joyce Manor, not forsaking sweet melodies and harmonies along the way. At 28 minutes long, I insist you give this a spin!
Crucial track: "That's Fine"
4. Yo La Tengo - This Stupid World
Tumblr media
For a long time, Yo La Tengo admittedly did not click with me that much. I'm not sure what changed, but their ability to vary between raucous, distorted shoegaze to calm, reflective instrumentals really stuck with me. On This Stupid World, they've once again found that sweet balance. Bolstered by arguably one of the best concerts I went to this year, I've really come to love this record a lot.
Crucial Track: "This Stupid World"
3. Avey Tare - 7s
Tumblr media
Avey Tare has always been my favorite member of Animal Collective. His 2019 record, Cows on Hourglass Pond, is my favorite solo release from anyone in the group. Avey has apparently been sitting on 7s for a little bit now, and I'm so glad it's in the world. Avey continues his unique blend of experimentation with profound moments of beauty, melody and depth. He's also been working more with the bass guitar on his and AnCo's latest albums, and it really works well on tracks like "Invisible Darlings" and "The Musical". Hey Bog is an epic in a year full of Animal Collective epics. Very happy with this one!
Crucial Track: "Lips at Night"
2. Animal Collective - Isn't It Now?
Tumblr media
Animal Collective have always inspired a dedicated, eager fanbase. After a few years doing their own things, the four core members of the group have reunited to make an ultimate "for the heads" record, with Isn't It Now. Last year's Time Skiffs built on a lot of things the band as a four-piece did well, and made it more melodic and accessible (again, Avey's bass playing and Panda Bear sitting behind a proper drum kit have changed their sound in a way you wouldn't expect), however this record takes it one step deeper. As typical with Animal Collective records, the band often plays songs that will appear on the *next* record on tour for the one they just put out. As a result, when I saw Animal Collective twice last year, they played most of the songs that ended up on this record. However, I did not fall victim to demoitis, and these songs sound magnificent. Definitely their densest record, but full of rich sounds, melodies and just the right amount of melancholy. Really really love this one.
Crucial Track: "Genie's Open"
1.Jeff Rosenstock - HELLMODE
Tumblr media
Jeff Rosenstock is my favorite musical artist. For nearly 20 years, everything he has put out, whether under his own name with his backing "Death Rosenstock" group, Bomb the Music Industry!, or Antarctigo Vespucci, has been great to amazing punk music. On HELLMODE, his first full-length since moving to California in early 2020, has Jeff more level-headed and reflective than ever, but also bursting with the sheer kinetic energy that has made his work a joy to listen to and experience since i became a fan in early college (seriously, go see Jeff live if you can!). There's a maturation here that doesn't sacrifice his passion in the slightest. This feels like a big budget record, but in all the right ways. Songs like I WANNA BE WRONG, 3 SUMMERS, and LIFE ADMIN capture the feelings of trying to work through your own life with so much crashing down around us. This has been the most in-love I've been with a new record in a long time, where I could really not get enough of it in the first month when it was released.
Thanks for reading if you made it this far! Here's hoping to a peaceful, loving and fulfilling 2024. Much love to all!

saiki k tokyo ghoul au bc of that one post comparing nishiki and kuniharu by @herdecisions (i havent read tg in years idc if i get anything wrong)
- possibility of kuniharu and nishiki being the same person OR twin brothers
- if theyre the same person kurumi is the gf whatever her name was, if theyre not then theyre not (idc if she died canonically she can be alive if i wantbyer to be)
- kuniharu is a ghoul and kurumi is human but threatening as fuck (kuniharu is either a weak bitch ghoul or hes soft for her)
- kuusuke was born a one eye. saiki was too but that pales in comparison to the fact that hes still psychic (dont ask why hes psychic its saiki ofc hes psychic)
- the govnt baby kusuo destroyed was the ccg, but he mightve given his family a different last name before that as witness protection, or after to avoid the govnt coming after them
- the grandparents are human bc theyre on kurumis side, know but dont care abt kuniharu being a ghoul (well grandpa does but he doesnt like kuniharu anyways)
- kusuo probably ended the stigma around ghouls and developed safe alternatives for them to eat OR he made it so ghouls can just eat normal food
- angstier idea is that he didnt and his familys still in hiding, but tbh anything to make his life easier yk

Animated favourites in 2022
The Tangjia Sanshao trifecta:
- Soul Land - A regular Saturday watch. Still, after all these episodes, I always play Angela Zhang’s theme song at full volume.
- The Magic Chef of Ice and Fire - It just moved to it’s 2nd season. Quite like it. Quality work like Soul Land and and Throne of Seal.
- Throne of Seal - Also just moved to it’s second seasond. Yes, I know the formula is familiar from Soul Land, but the romance between Long Haochen and Cai’er is what keeps me watching.
The Island of Siliang - Quite liked this. Pity it was so short.
Supreme Lord of Galaxy S1-2 - Fun 10 minute bits twice a week.
No Doubt in Us S2 - I loved the first season of this historical bodyswapping story, and the second season is just as nice.
Legendary Overlord (Lord Snow Eagle) - I watched all of it on WeTV even though it was MTL, which should tell you how much I liked the story. I understand there is also a live action drama called Snow Eagle Lord with Xu Kai and Gulinazha in production.
Spy X Family - Best new find! I love the Forger pretend (?are they really pretending any more?) family and also ended up ordering all of the English published manga as well.
Edit: How could I forget The Dragon Prince’s newest season. It continued the story in it’s twisty and addictive way. I continue to love all the lgbtq+ representation in it.
Also, Oni: Thunder God’s Tale was such a lovely story. I already recced it to my niece and my greatnephew, though it might be a bit too scary at his age.

Hey y’all! If you ever find a charity that is going to do an auction as a fundraiser, and that auction is online and is willing to let me mail the winners their prizes instead of requiring them to pick up the prizes at a specific location, let me know? I really want to donate more things for charity auctions, but my best fundraising items would be fandom related* and those will do much better in an online auction than an in-person one *I already do the Marvel Trumps Hate auction every year, but I have so much non-Marvel stuff I want to make! Pokemon, Studio Ghibli, Momo and Appa from Avatar...there are so many options to choose from

CRIES IN PAIN I WROTE A WHOLE THING ABOUT ZENO AND THEN TUMBLR CRASHED. KILLING AND MAIMING. TAKE 2 SJFKSHDK ashe and i got summoned by zeno >:) the basic premise of the game is that there’s these two guys (one a serial killer, the other a doctor) who wake up in an abandoned hospital with no memories. very soon after, they also find themselves handcuffed together! your goal is to get them out of this place alive…… and while that may sound simple enough….. ough girl….. and the lore you encounter along the way is also so. SO AUSIFKFKSHA AAAAAAAA bro i literally cried playing this game that’s all i’ll say. very important note though, if you’re at all uncomfortable with the topic of cannibalism, please do not play zeno! it features quite heavily in the game. if you need a more specific cw list hmu >:) zeno has 13 main endings you can reach, and it’s very recommended (by ME!!!) to try to hit them all. the dynamics explored with the characters in all of the routes are so interesting and funny and tragic and AUGH anyways if you wanna play the game, here’s a link! the english translation is so bad but it’s so funny i promise. stick it out for the plot!! if that short premise intrigued you at all, i hope you’ll give zeno a shot! if you liveblog i’ll totally follow it HAHA <3 (here’s some official art of the main characters below!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
OH NO I HATE WHEN TUMBLR DOES THAT </3 but thank you for sticking it out!!!
ooohhh that sounds. so neat. i love me a silly english translation too :3 but like!!! that does sound. so neat!!! also i love the main characters designs too :o
that is a lotta endings... but i am not swayed!!! i will definitely give it a shot!
