but fr outside of my contracted madness i absolutely refuse to give joe alwyn gold rush like how is that song at all related to their relationship the lyrics clearly spell out a relationship that either never existed or only existed in implication and fantasies and maybe-maybe nots and its so bitter and yet desperately soft in the bridge where it almost projects a sense of envy, of wanting to be them as much as you want them. It continues an interesting oft ignored lyrical trend of taylor wanting just as much to be her lover as to have them, envying their easy charisma (you were flush with the currency of cool/i was always turning out my pockets) or quiet dignity (your integrity makes me seem small) dating back to her earliest songs (the kind of flawless i wish i could be). Theres a projected self hatred and yearning to be better that twists itself into both romantic and sexual lust for her partners thats so fascinating and speaks to how all of her songs regardless of who theyre about are also an act of self reflection on who she is and who she wishes to be.
#barry.txt#taylor swift#putting this in the tags as a form of self protection but make no mistake this is a gay thing to do especially in gold rush#which through simple context clues is Obviously About A Woman or maybe even women in general#whivh is a totally seperate post on how taylor constructs and uses gender identity in her music#her girlhood and femininity are earnest but also so carefully constructed and so high effort and kind of desperate#shes a deeply self concious and obsessive person who never looks comfortable in anything ever unless shes#onstage or like. by herself in loose jeans and a tshirt#i think thats one of the things that subconsciously irritate ppl when it comes to her shes constantly and clearly putting in effort#to appear As The Celebrity Taylor Swift and struggles not to self censor or overperform in interviews (when she gives them)#especially present in pre 1989 interviews where the interviewers really didnt have to respect her or worry abt how they frame her#if they didnt want to. Like the fearless era rolling stone interview where she almost has a meltdown over her mom buying eggnog instead of#milk. That whole interview is strange looking back not just bc of the weird misogyny but also because of what it does share#taylor is....weird. She has a strange and desperate vibe and always reacts slightly too much and uses slang poorly#shes media trained and has learned how to socialize but you can feel her discomfort whenever she doesnt have a guitar in her hand#idk these tags have once again gotten so unweildy. i just find it interesting that she finally feels some level of comfortable#in sharing that construction w us in songs like mirrorball and mastermind and imo gold rush#and scene#should i write this up and put it in the swiftieism zine#i should write something and put it in the swiftieism zine

okay so i know the sacred 28 were heavy on the “traditional” upper class teachings, such as classical music and ballroom dancing etc, which is why regulus is often hced as being a pianist. but i see your pianist and i raise you: violinist
#i just don’t think piano would be Dramatic enough for him#the flamboyant little boy with his black curls and flowy shirts was 100%%%%% playing the violin come on#i can picture it so vividly#i also feel like violin is a more physical outlet? than piano#like you can clutch onto this instrument for DEAR life#you can make your finger bleed all over the strings#it adds that little extra#i also think instruments were one of the only areas he outperformed sirius and that meant everything to him#(you cannot tell me they were not compared and pitted against each other)#so for him to maybe start with piano quickly master it and then move onto the violin#it would do something for him#(while sirius secretly learned the guitar/bass out of spite)#(and james got him one the first week after he escaped to potter manor)#(and maybe effie was listening to some violin music one day and it made sirius break down from guilt and longing for regulus)#anyway#regulus headcanon#black brothers headcanon

Hey y'all you know sometimes when you have the urge to eat something specific but you don't know what the specific thing is? I'm having that but for crafting. Like, I feel like I want to make something in a different medium than my usuals but idk what it is??? I'm going to try drawing first to see if it's that, I think. Send me requests/suggestions to draw and I might draw them! I also might end up plushifying them if I draw them?
#the person behind the yarn#I have not given up on the progress pride quilt it is still happening#I've just had a weird week and I am trying to appease the metaphorical brain weasels so I can focus#well. so I can focus on something productive#I've almost completed a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle since yesterday afternoon#I am going to go play piano and maybe guitar and sing for a while before I draw#because I am home alone and won't bother my family by being super loud#(not that music is a bother in general I just can sing LOUD when I don't have to worry about it being too loud)#(I'm a former musical theater kid from a theater that could not afford mics so I learned to sing SO LOUD)

good days aren't easy to come by
#simblr#ts4 legacy#valentine gen 4#fun fact for context on why i care so much abt him finally choosing to play the piano on his own#but it's gonna get Long so strap in#basically. the guitar he used to have had been with him since he was like...... my god. probably about 15#he bought it at a yard sale for pennies from an older woman#it belonged to her late son originally and it wasn't even . supposed to be a part of the sale in the first place. she just took a liking to#devin and figured that really it's better in the hands of someone who would use it than for it to collect dust in her garage forever#and he couldn't really practice at home. his parents... are not exactly the kindest people you've ever seen#he was too afraid of them destroying or throwing it away so he'd sneak off to god knows where and learn how to play it from old#youtube videos on his busted up phone#it quickly became Everything to him. his most prized possession. and it wasn't a shitty guitar either. the son was a professional musician#that's how ellie and devin met in the first place. he was playing at the market she used to sneak out to in the evenings to#and she instantly knew . this boy is going places and really they might as well go together#enough backstory of the backstory. long story short: he was struggling to make rent eventually and was out of vinyls to pawn off#so he had no choice left. it was either that or he'd get kicked out along with his sister. who was still struggling a lot w/ addiction#so he sold it. and it broke him. he's literally just not been the same since losing it#his sister stole him a guitar from a music shop she'd go to sometimes but it just wasn't the same and he had not played an instrument since#until now anyway#still not a guitar. but maybe someday#or he can find his old one and buy it again.........#lmfao if you made it here congrats. you win nothing bc im broke but i do respect you

Couldn’t be bothered to finish the background but anyways I think Pepito’s horse is comically bigger than Panchito’s <3
(Settled on calling the white Panchito/Shirochito Pepito Paracho 🎉 his thing is his paracho guitar like how Panchito’s thing is his guns)
—————
Do NOT repost, edit, trace, or use my art in any way. Thanks.
#Back when I first got into the three caballeros and made a horse for Panchito only to learn that. He already had señor Martinez 😭😭#I ended up giving that horse to Pepito!! Her name is Caramelita <33#the three caballeros#crispy’s art#panchito pistoles#panchito romero miguel junipero francisco quintero gonzalez#panchito pistolas#pepito paracho#I had an epiphany when I was tuning my paracho guitar. If you couldn’t tell#Anyways. Feels like forever since I’ve posted!! Wow#I’ve been posting less art lately </3 maybe I’ll get back into the old swing later but for now I’ll just be going slow. Very slow 😭#Not that I draw less!! Just less motivated to share#los tres caballeros

it's really a shame I have to sell 40+ of my life hours every week for poverty wages instead of spending all my time and energy on dozens of creative and technical pursuits with unlimited resources
#nerd alert#lets see if i can list all the hobbies i wish i could be doing instead of working#drawing. both traditional and digital. painting mostly acrylic but id like to get good at watercolors. drawing/writing comics#writing in general. fiction nonfiction poetry lyrics whatever. composing music. music production. singing. practicing piano and guitar#performing someday maybe!#sculpting too. i always forget bc i never do it bc i am never in a place to justify buying clay. i should just get some#i think im fairly good at it tbh. anyway.#knitting. sewing. mending and modding clothes in general. embroidery. id like to learn to crochet at some point#photography and scrapbooking sound appealing. photo editing.#web design. game design. 3d modeling. these are all things i dont really know how to do much of but id like to#animation. voice acting. regular acting. honestly a lot of stuff in the filmmaking process sounds fascinating id like to try some of it#tarot reading. is that a hobby? im gonna say yes. jewelry making.#lots of these ive only dabbled in and some i havent even done that but would like to. but i have no time and or money to get into them.#i would hardly call myself a master at any of these. jack of all trades as it were. and thats fine im fine w that#but given the time and resources i think i could make so many different diverse perfectly average to good things#that people could enjoy in passing or say 'oh how neat :)' about

the shizu-chan song
youtube
just discovered the shizu-chan song by none other than johnny yong bosch. help me
id transcribe if i didnt have a final in 10 hours. maybe when i get back
oh nvm someone already wrote them out
this has similar energy as the bro duet song but like. in reverse bgskjdghjkgsd the no homo is for real
plus an animatic version and amv version because holy hell this is old
#i hear there's another shizuo song by johnny yong bosch according to the comments from 2017 but ill have to wait until yt recommends me it#anyway this makes me want to make a bro duet animatic for shizaya#which would be hilarious because. they're not bros#the ship dynamic of 'two guy best friends who maybe kiss sometimes' is very good but very not shizaya#so the spontaneous love confessions just come out of fucking nowhere during one of their fights#it would be really funny. trust#and probably better than the angst and self-denial festival i would make animating the actual shizu-chan song#i can already see the half-smiling-to-himself half-looks-like-he's-about-to-cry pining semi-regretful izaya face at the last shizu-chan#also. izaya guitar player headcanon hello#if someone can make an artist hobbyist izaya au i can make a guitar hobbyist izaya au#tbh izaya's more spontaneous and i feel like he wouldnt like all the hard work and practice time that goes into learning an instrument#like his main hobbies like parkour and switchblade throwing are stuff he gets to put into practice all the time and are more 'useful'#but instrument practice it's just him and his thoughts and callused hands for hours at a time#feel like he'd get frustrated pretty easily in that way#anyway wouldnt it be hot if izaya played the guitar LMFAOO fuck my characterization and let that man play fingerstyle#izaya playing piano is a somewhat popular headcanon anyway#god i have the worst habit of putting the entirety of my post into the tags. must be the incorrect lov joke bits spilling over#shizaya#shizuo heiwajima#izaya orihara#durarara#Youtube

should i make a questionable business and financial decision and buy an audio interface
#court rambambles#maybe i would actually start playing bass again. and continue learning guitar. idk i have like 4-5 things i wanna accomplish in the next 4#years. also then i could buy a Nice Mic and start recording like. vocals. and my horn and stuff. idk#i technically have the money and im getting money for christmas and there's a couple things on my list. such as mgs3 and mgs delta#this isnt even just. a questionable thing like in the future i am probably going to need this if i am going to be a music major#ESPECIALLY. if i cave and go into audio and music production. or if i can get into a tech/classical comp degree one of my choices offers#on the euphonium grind dude

Sometimes I want to run away from everything and isolate myself from my friends until I learn how to be a well adjusted member of society and maybe even learn some social skills, so I can be the person my friends deserve but realistically that would only worsen my mental health and I can't do that to my loved ones. And I'm not even sure what I mean by running away. It's been a bad mroning, well actually it's been a bad year.
#corin's lore#I was trying to vent less about my terrible life but it's not like I have a therapist#Also I want to start playing the guitar but guitars are expensive and I'm poor living from paycheck to paycheck#(i mean maybe they aren't that expensive and I'm just poor and everything is expensive in my point of view)#Help this is so unrelated to the post. Anyway lately I've been feeling like music can fix me#It can't but I've been thinking about learning how to play the guitar and it'd be a nice distraction from my life

I was interested in learning guitar. I asked a couple friends of mine whether to pick up acoustic or electric, and both said to go for acoustic. I did extensive research on Google as well and most articles say that it doesn't really matter. The only con to electric guitar that I see is the pricing, but I'm hoping to go second hand, so that might fall in my budget if I save for a couple months. But I still wanna confer with someone experienced. If anyone's got any advice, please drop it.
#im not 100% averse to acoustic guitar#cause i would love to learn to play hozier and lost stars maybe I've always loved that song#but i feel like after a while i might lose interest in it#so it'll end up stacked on top of a bunch of cartons forgotten#my friends told me acoustic is usually the starting point cause its less responsive#and cheap#but i just keep thinking that isnt it better to wait and spend money on an instrument i know ill be able to sustain my interest on#will delete later#adding fandom tags here for reach but if theres any useful tags i can add do tell me please#arctic monkeys#alex turner#rock music#electric guitar#music <3#alex turner x reader#obey me#i get personal... again

you know what probably sucks in vorinism? playing a stringed instrument.
Vorinism in general sounds terrible BUT I could see guitar going okay since you could use your right for the chords and then your sleeved hand to hold the pick. Same with violin/cello etc, I think holding the bow in a sleeve should be fine.
I'd like to imagine that lighteyed women who are too whatever for gloves have special sleeves designed to stay out of the way of the strings.
Piano though. No way could you get away with anything other than a thin glove. It's an honorary stringed instrument I guess
#this is coming from someone who has only managed to learn piano#just btw. i barely know anything about guitars#I'm trying to learn guitar kind of but i always forget about it and then one of my strings broke and i never feel like replacing it#actually maybe I'll try putting on a glove and playing a song tomorrow when its not 1am maybe its not so bad#side note vorin ladies would rock on a synthesizer#also also im so sorry i completely forgot about this ask#questions!
