I'm sorry but CONAN GRAY JUST RELEASED A SONG I LOVE IT SO MUCH IT'S GIVING BODYBAG BY CHLOE MORIONDO VIBES IN A WAY OF "I love you, but at the same time, you’re driving me insane and I shouldn’t have feelings for you and I don’t know what to do except watch as we play this cruel game of wouldn’t, couldn’t, shouldn’t and yet here I am following your every move and coming back each time… it’s not even a love-hate relationship with another person, it’s a love-hate relationship with yourself because of how another person makes you feel". (quote: me as I heard it for the first time at 2 am this morning)

Also I feel like conan gray is one of those artists than can just... understand this feeling in a particularly specific way

growing up with a psychologist for a mother was so funny because my sister and i would be like “mo-om why do we have to go to bed now” and she would respond with a long explanation of the research on the effects of sleep on the brain and body followed by another explanation on permissive vs. authoritarian vs. authoritative parenting styles, with citations

[communistkenobi]

whenever right wing people talk about “parental rights” they are talking about property rights. they are arguing for further political and legal enshrinement of their children as their literal actual property

actually I will say something about this:

setting up a romance line but waiting until one of the actors is a freshly legal adult before executing it is creepy, actually, especially when the co-star is 15 years older

decided to warm up today by drawing my favorite image of all time

Just remember this idea I had for a fic where Steve’s dad worked in marketing and made jiggles for commercials so they had a full music studio in their house.

The local music store had a section where local artists can sell cassettes. It’s mostly poorly recorded country music from The Hideout’s open mic night, but Corroded Coffin is there too. Eddie practically stalks the shelf to see if anyone buys their music. No one ever does (except for Gareth’s mom).

Then one day, Eddie goes into the shop after work to see if any of CC’s stock is gone, and sees a new tape there. No artist name. No song titles. Just a slip of paper stuck into the case with a hand drawn rose on it.

Eddie buys it and even though it’s not his typical type of music, falls absolutely in love with the voice on the tape. He loves the music. The production quality. The way sadness seeps into every corner of side A and B.

He goes back to the record shop and asks who left the tape, but the employee has no idea. They think someone just stuck it there without permission and have no idea who they’re supposed to pay for the sale.

Two more tapes show up over the next month with a different drawn flower on it, each sadder than the last. The artist is clearly going through something. Eddie still has no idea who they are and is now stalking the shelf not just to see if his own music is selling (it’s not).

He’s in full investigation mode and it’s annoying all of his friends. He needs to know who this person is because he’s a little in love with them and also a little worried about them. It’s really sad music.

Meanwhile, Steve is just trying to process the end of his relationship with Nancy in the only way he can think of.

Most unhinged moment in TWST Wonderland that made you go:

I love this game.

can I just say the entire front half of episode 7 chapter 8, because everything about it was BONKERS in the most absolutely delightful way. genuinely this might have been the funniest single update yet. we got Idia's directorial debut! big stronk Epel! and. just. gestures to the entirety of SavanaRook. (then Vil went into a spiral of murdering people that culminated in punching the manifestation of his own insecurity in the face, and that was good in an entirely different kind of way, but I digress)

if I have to pick one though, I'm gonna go with Idia's video, because 1) adorable, 2) seriously just look at it, and 3) I did legit have to replay that subchapter on account of laughing over most of it the first time. truly Idia is the artistic genius of our generation.

[realbeefman]

sunny should do an episode where the gang descends through the layers of dante’s hell and at first they’re all a little freaked out but it’s still got the sunny background music and they’re joking and getting into situations but as it progresses the mood gets more and more somber and the sets get more disorienting and their experiences more disturbing until eventually we end on ten minutes of dead silence while the gang silently walks down an endless and shadowed staircase that grows progressively darker and darker until the screen is fully black and all we can hear is the shuffling of their footsteps ever further down down down until even that fades into nothing but an unfathomably endless darkness

Anthro Spearmaster.... Slugscav? Scavlizard? All of the above? Something else? No ones quite sure.

Spearmaster presented another interesting conflict similar to Artificer, where if you make them one-to-one you end up making someone (Suns) look a lot more fucked up than they really are. Since while, regardless of how you feel about animal experimentation, you can probably agree its less fucked up than human experimentation. But get rid of too much and you lose what makes Spearmaster Spearmaster- So they certainly aren't an ethical creation, but a little less unethical than literally removing a creatures mouth and making it feed via bone needles. Still not a normal slugcat by any means, and one that uses that to their advantage. Local towns see them as everything from a normal individual, to a weird hybrid, to something entirely supernatural. They keep the details to themselves and their iterator and are happy that way.

Aziraphale is a big-time stress baker.

…This may or may not have something to do with the season 3 news.
