i desire a masterlist of rick wright lore. i absolutely love that man but i don't know half the silly, goofy things he got up to and i need a long-ass post explaining all you know about that little weirdo.

HI HELLO okay so as much as i see and understand a desire for a "rick wright lore masterlist", i don't think i would be able to do proper service by just listing all of the stuff i know off my head, plus i don't want people to see it and just take everything i say at face value and not look into things further if that makes any sense

so instead i will put a rick wright source masterlist under the readmore so people can go watch/read things for themselves in as much detail as they feel comfortable doing so, + i think a lot of people aren't aware of half of the sources i take from

Books

As far as books go your best starting points are Mark Blake's Comfortably Numb and Nick Mason's Inside Out, both of which are much more generalised sources for any Pink Floyd related material - I do have PDFs of both of these (i have physical bought copies too dw), so if you can't read/listen to either of them for any reason DM me and I'll send those PDFs to you :] They're both available widely on Amazon and other bookstores and Inside Out is also available as an audiobook!!

Guy Pratt's My Bass And Other Animals is 75% his own biography and 25% pink floyd related, so while it does have some Rick-related stuff in there, don't go into it expecting any in-detail explanations. Unfortunately I don't have a PDF of this book, but it is widely available and relatively inexpensive to buy (and I totally reccomend it!)

Franka Wright has supposedly been writing a tell-all on her marriage and experiences with him, but there haven't been many updates on it in a while. I've been relatively quiet on everything she's said about him in public as I don't think I have enough information on what happened to properly comment, but if that book does drop expect me to be the first in line to take a look

Websites/Online

Please god if you have even any passing interest use rickwright.com. It's a resource largely made by his estate and has a lot of information on there, it's a really sweet and interesting labour of love and I cannot reccomend it enough

pinkfloydz.com is an older website but has a gigantic catalogue of interviews, which include a large amount of transcribed interviews with Rick from 1996. It's just such a good resource in general and I highly reccomend checking it out, as even if you're not a Rick fan you still have a lot of interviews with the others in there

Here me out here; @mamazano (who has been inactive since 2021) has SO much on there that I don't feel bad putting them down as a source. Almost everything they post about is properly cited so you can find exactly where they came from, and they catalogue a lot of stuff that is locked behind more expensive/less available books. Their attention to detail for citing and sourcing quotes has been so admirable to me even if they're no longer on Tumblr anymore!

Watchlist

Here's links to watch Live At Pompeii, P.U.L.S.E, Delicate Sound of Thunder and Live 8 if you haven't done so already. also Chit Chat With Oysters has him for like 3 minutes

Remember That Night (an On An Island concert film)

Breaking Bread, Drinking Wine (On An Island tour documentary)

Rick talks about Syd for the 2001 Syd Barrett documentary by John Edginton

Broken China interview

Interview with Guy Pratt about PATGOD

There's definitely a lot more but this is the stuff I already had on my Youtube playlist of interviews - here's some that were on there but I haven't watched/listened to in a while so I can't 100% verify them rn (x) (x) (x)

Maybe one day I will try and chronologue all of the shit I know into something comprehensible but that definitely wouldn't just be a Tumblr post or smth lol

In the meantime I do thrive infodumping-wise off specific questions so if there's something more concrete you want me to (attempt to) explain I'm happy to do so! Thank you sm for the ask (I wouldn't have done this otherwise) and please feel free to contact me if you would like anything specific answered :]

the thing about qslime is like. he’s BEEN in denial about flippa’s death ever since it happened. when the eggs were taken away when the brazilians first arrived he was fully expecting flippa to show back up with them, he actively went looking for her. this thing with codeflippa isn’t like… new. at all

also, tangentially related, i honestly feel like etoiles reassuring him that tilín’s death wasn’t his fault may have had a negative effect? at least in regards to how much guilt he feels. because his emotions are all in extremes — he either loves mariana or hates her guts. he either feels so guilty that he runs off thousands of blocks away and tries to summon an angel to bring tilín back or he doesn’t care anymore because it was “just an accident” (a sentiment which doesn’t extend beyond himself because he is, ultimately, as self-centred as he is self-unaware). charlie said it himself when going through the element rooms in cellbits castle — his character is entirely driven by emotion, and he’s an absolute wreck about it. that’s why his character would be blood (even if charlie himself chose energy/chaos)

the other islanders are very much used to how.. volatile he is. so they just kinda let it go (at least on the outside) as seen with cellbit, roier, phil, etc. hanging out with him and codeflippa and helping them do her “tasks” which obviously probably isn’t the best approach (except on an information gathering front, but i mean for slime specifically here) but like… how do you even help someone like that? someone so deep in that they can’t even see that they��re losing themself to something that isn’t even real. he’d have to get to a point where he actually lets himself realise that something is wrong but he just. can’t

blarrrgghh I've been hesitant of doing this cause I feel really bad asking but I desperately need help with my phone bill so making one of these kinds of posts im sorry

so as stated above im in need of help with my phone bill I moved in with my fiance about 5 or so months ago and he's been helping me out a lot with stuff but given he's trying to provide for 2 people with a minimum wage job he can't cover everything so... I haven't been able to get my phone bill paid on time I haven't been able to make my payment for 2 months now and it's gotten really price heavy that I'm going to hope turning to this may hopefully help but waaa

the amount I need is $364.21 I'm sorry for it being so high I only have $10 to my name attached below shows it

again im sorry for having to do this but it's stressing me out so bad I haven't been able to call or text family for help due to my phone basically being a brick if you can reblog please do usual don't tags for this post to please any support of any kind would be very helpful thank you

i still really love how lucian will only tell you a bit about his past if you lose against him in chess, whereas if you beat him he offers absolutely nothing. aside from being a neat little bit of gameplay (and you're probably gonna lose your first time anyway, what would the odds be of actually beating him first try? he is really good after all!), it's just a really good way of showing us his character, and even foreshadowing possible events.

he's a prideful guy! he keeps his emotions in check and is obviously a graceful winner, but he's really fucking pleased with his victory! he knows he's damn good, and having anton see that and acknowledge that must be pretty exciting for him, enough to lift his spirits and offer up pieces of his mysterious life to him. not only does he get anton's respect and admiration--something, to me, that is reciprocated, at least for now--, but he sees how important he is to anton, to the administration. his spot is secured.

but if he loses...well, he's kind of a petty bitch! again, he respects anton, of course, but...losing? him? suddenly he's not in a generous mood to offer any information anymore. it doesn't matter, obviously, but the fact that it bothers him just a biiiiit more than it should is so telling, and very subtly shows that the potential for betrayal is there, even now that he's completely on anton's side still.

i don't know, i love his petty, opportunistic ass so much.

ok I missed the class where we started workshopping so im kind of going in blind with these letters, but i was snooping in the class folder to see what kinds of critiques other people were giving and im realizing im going to look like the biggest asshole in the room, becase these are all complimentary as hell with the biggest softball critiques ive ever seen. it makes me feel mean when mine are like 95% critical even though i spent a shit ton of time figuring out how to word it so i dont sound mean but like. idk when its my turn i DONT want to just hear complimentary drivel about how you liked it and its so good, actually, because this is critique and not everybody compliment time.

idk. It feels like when im doing this im elevating myself and my own writing which i dont want to do because i dont want these people to think i think im better than them because i'm not, but i've just been in enough art critiuques to know that just saying some variant of "i liked it. here is the thing i liked, very very good job" is completely unhelpful. maybe bc im a senior and this is my last semester i've just had more time to get used to it and i no longer take it personally when people tell me they dislike things/are confused by my choices/think i should change things, and this is an intermediate class where more of the people dont reguarly do peer-review on their art but like. can we PLEASE not sit in a circle and only do encouragement-style critique.

And i get it! it's important when you're working with your stuff to hear encouragement, because constant negativity can make you feel like crap. the compliment sandwich is good for a reason! but the point of the compliment sandwhich is that the filling is not a compliment. you want breads? you want three breads stacked up? I'm at the point where i just wanna eat the cold cuts, and i think that's made me harsher. and I'm just hoping i don't come across as mean or vindictive, or that I think i just write so much better than everyone else or something. I'm trying to give feedback i genuinely think is good, constructive, and helpful, but I dont know.... i still don't want to make people feel bad, especially in the in-person sections where my classmates are literally going to be on the hot seat. does that make sense?
