I shall dub thee: Pixel

I know it's a simple name but it is only temporary for until my brain churns out a robot name

When he is in the possession of a sniper, he tends to go into a more cube-like shape (not because that's the only way he can stand up with it but) because he believes it makes him appear smaller and less noticeable

If I can be arsed then I may perchance write a fucking novel about him idk it's just what boredom does to a guy

LOOK AT HIM HE'S SO SILLY (he has committed mass genocide and is an intergalactic war criminal)

He's such a goofball

EVERYWHERE AT THE END OF TIME

Everywhere at the end of time is by far one of the biggest, most influential and addictive things I have ever listened to. Its an incredibly beautiful yet devastating representation of dementia and Alzheimer's yet it feels so... Soothing?

I am incredibly afraid of getting Alzheimer's and/or dementia and having seen what it does to people only increases that fear. By no means am I trying to say that I enjoy listening to the rollercoaster that is EATEOT, only saying that from an artistic point it feels incredibly unique and different compared to anything I've seen before.

I'm gonna basically summarise the 6 stages of EATEOT for those who don't know what it is first:

Everywhere at the end of time (EATEOT for short) is a 6 part project spanning 6 and a half hours of listening time. It contains ballroom music from the 1920s-1930s. It is by no means the largest project out there- with albums inspired by it being in some cases 9 hours long- but what it covers in those 6 hours is phenomenal. It starts out with a sample from the start of "Heartaches", by Al Bowy, before slowly but meticulously deteriorating into unrecognisable static.

BRIEFISH SUMMARY OF EATEOT

Stage 1- The calm before the storm

Stage 1 starts out with looping samples from segments of ballroom music, seemingly whole and in no state of corruption. Whilst there is the occasional pop here and there it doesn't feel disorientated.

Stage 2- Unfamiliarity

Stage 2 feels like a more gunned down version of stage 1, with the music being more staticy and hearing a lot more vinyl pops between tracks. It feels off compared to stage 1 yet still recognisable. Towards the end it crumbles further, before segmenting into stage 3

Stage 3- Feelings of confusion and fear

Stage 3 is when it really sets in, with the first track containing 2 samples layed over eachother in an effort to create a sense of confusion in the listener. You hear the music being reversed, broken down and just ripped apart; with bits of clarity here and there it still feels painful.

Stage 4- The dread solidifies as everything fades

Stage 4 is by far one of the hardest parts to listen to- more specifically when you hear HELL SIRENS in the middle of it, thanks Leyland for that one. But it feels horrible. The audio is in shambles, there's still some music legible but only barely. It feels to me like trying to listen to what your neighbour's watching on tv whilst there's a government speech going on in your room. It's just painful.

Stage 5- The advanced plaque entanglements

K1 is where you know that afterwards is not pleasant. There's brief periods of clarity that fight to be there, begging for a chance to stay with you. At this rate it's impossible to hear the music, just warbling nonsense. Is practically impossible to explain stage 5 given that it is just backwards and forth nonsense in your ears

Stage 6- The end arrives with cavalry.

Stage 6 is the end, it is where the Caretaker as a character just ends. There's practically no way of knowing what is going on, it feels almost ambient in a way. Then you reach it. You reach the terminal lucidity. A choir, church? The orchestra that is death wraps her arms around the caretaker- leaving the listener with a minute of silence.

MY THOUGHTS ON EATEOT

EATEOT is one of the greatest, most powerful things I've heard. Hearing a song I love (heartaches) get split apart and thrown into probably ¾ of the album is honestly depressing. The whole album is. Everything about it is depressing. It wasn't intended to be a nice fairytale of sounds, more so a boxset of torment on the soul and ears. If you told me to take 6.5 hours out of my day to research dementia I would've spat in your face and said a few words. BUT if you said to listen to it and then go and explain it to random internet people then Idve been delighted to. The hell sirens in stage 4 absolutely terrified me when I was half asleep in maths, but I'd listen to it again either ways.

Everywhere at the end of time is not intended for people in a difficult mental state, so please if you are struggling with metal health then get help.

With all being said

LISTEN TO EVERYWHERE AT THE END OF TIME

Thank you for listening to my lecture :-)

it's important to me that people know the original "he would not fucking say that" was in response to a tiktok where someone said eric cartman would thank you for asking for his pronouns. Like it just doesn't hit the same without context.

i think the whole 'stormtroopers can't aim' thing is pretty unfair

can anybody aim in star wars? does anyone actually hit with a goddamn blaster? they're literally just there for show
