Clearing My Thoughts

I had a bit of a rough day, I had about 44 minutes of sleep, according to my Fitbit, and it’s a wee bit of a downhill day. I made some soup with some stuff in the fridge, and it turned into a chicken broth with rice and some veggies; it turned out amazing, and it’s perfectly spicy without being too much. I had little to no sleep last night, so im trying to get myself into a crashing mood to get a…

…SO RACHEL POSTED THIS LIKE 2 HOURS AGO APPARENTLY?????

IS A NEW GAME IN THE WORKS????? THE SAME THING WAS DONE TO HINT AT MARRIED IN RED

DAMN MAYBE I’LL FINALLY BE ABLE TO PLAY ONE OF THESE GAMES INSTEAD OF JUST WATCHING A PLAY THROUGH-

I’M EXCITED

[wofworld]

thinking about how harrow insisted that she can only share the ninth house’s secret with gideon if they are submerged in salt water. thinking about nona’s love of the ocean and about alecto being called a ‘saltwater creature’ on two (??) different occasions. also thinking about alecto’s favor to anastasia and the irony of the saltwater pool tradition being passed down through so many generations- but only on the ninth and with no real concept of where it started…

Will Wood (and the Tapeworms) Songs as Ride the Cyclone Characters!

Recently decided to wade through Will Wood's discography more and I think some of the songs by the 30-something year old dude really embody them

How this half asleep rant will work:

[Character]: [Song(s)]

Explanation of why song is chosen

"Certain excerpts from the song I think embody the goober chosen"

Note: all songs wils be linked when they're written (mostly as youtube lyric videos), also this will probably be very long

Ocean O'Connell Rosenburg: The Main Character

Local ‘gifted kid’ teenager has yet to find out that the world doesn't revolve around her and stepping on anyone who doesn't fit in with her isn’t okay, more at 7

"I mean, imagine if protagonists just died in the first scene"

"I loot plot armor from NPC’s / Well, they are to me"

Noel Gruber: Suburbia Overture / Greetings from Mary Bell Township! / (Vampire) Culture / Love Me, Normally

This song (in my opinion) is really the embodiment of Noel's character. attempting to fit in, being told to "tone it down" by his mother until eventually arriving in the afterlife and essentially going "fuck it, we ball" with Noel's Lament (and Vampire Culture in this allegory) until eventually arriving at a state of peace with Love Me, Normally/It's Just a Ride

"a snowflake only matters in a blizzard"

Mischa Bachinski: 6up 5oh Cop-Out (Pro / Con & ¡Aikido! (Neurotic / Erotic)

6up 5oh with it's plot(?) of running from the police and proceeding to get mistreated by them is how Mischa is viewed by essentially everyone is Saskatchewan (and to an extent how he lets them see him). While ¡Aikido!, is more of his 'passion' side, specifically with Talia. The more aggressive reprise at the end of Aikido in the 2020 remaster also reminds me allot of the techno section of 'Talia'.

"It's never too late to embrace your fate"

"So we can touch instead of feel"

Ricky Potts: White Noise & Dr. Sunshine Is Dead

Imagine being so forgotten by everyone around you so the innocent bean stereotype is put on you automatically despite the fact that you’re real personality is far from that and then having a mini identity crisis over it

"You're not meant to sing along"

"I'm no one if I'm nowhere in between"

Jane Doe: Big Fat Bitchie’s Blueberry Pie, Christmas Tree, and Recreational Jell-o Emporium a.k.a. “Mr. Boy is on the Roof Again” (Feat. Pasta by Sneakers McSqueakers) [From “B.F.B.’s B-Sides: Bagel Batches, Marsh-Mallows, & Barsh-Mallows”]

No thoughts, story, or plot, just funky carnival music

Constance Blackwood: Falling Up

This song is essentially 'Sugar Cloud' but more melancholy. This is what I'd imagine a song about Constance's life before she died would be about, or Constance's Monologue in song form. What especially reminded me of her monologue was the rapid fire listing of objects and even the title 'Falling Up' being repeated in the song feeling like the roller coaster when it derailed. They're falling but being upside down it feels more like they're flying.

"You make a wish upon the dead, but turn and call it a weed"

"Much larger than life, 'cause from such height / Life looks awful small"

"Well, I cry on skies of blue linoleum, Clouds o' spilled milk"

Penny Lamb: Willard!

Aspiring animal conservationist doesn't know how to relate to "normal" people partially due to her upbringing. Parts of the song were the singer wants animal traits the make their life easier reminds me of Penny's whole "I vomit fire" thing before absolutely destroying JK-47

“Until frustration makes me wish my teeth were sharp as yours”

“I've never understood what humans do and want / It's quite confusing to me to try to connect / Never learned how I should feel, instincts somehow stunted”

Extra characters outside of the choir:

I'll go less in depth for these as i think most of these are self-explanatory

Karnak: Memento Mori: the most important thing in the world

funky sentient machine is constantly aware of his imminent death and decides to be a goofy goober because of it

Virgil: Tomcat Disposables

rat just wants to vibe and chew on a power cable. oopsies he's dead now

Monique Gibeau: White Knuckle Jerk & Front Street

oh em gee she's so gorgeous and dangerous and the world described in Noel's Lament is very gritty and a little gross

Ezra Lamb: Euthanasia (Live)

this mostly feeds into my hc that Ezra ditched school to go to the fair with the choir and had to see his sister get beheaded, being completely inconsolable, and not being listened to because he's "a kid looking for attention"

It's the end yay!!

That's the end folks! I really enjoyed making this (i am a very big fan of both rtc and will wood) there were a lot of other songs i wanted to include (skeleton appreciation day, i/me/myself etc.) but didn't because either

a. they fit too many characters for me to just pin one to them or

b. the character already had two songs assigned to them

i hope anybody reading this is having a good day/night and listens to will wood more in the future ig

Why that one irl “friend” of mine pissed me off so much when she begged (on 2 different occasions) for me to crochet something for her because i was working on voluntary projects for loved ones during church:

I hate the progress on Mika’s plushie so im restarting from scratch. For kicks and giggles and fuel im timing it.

Im barely adding eyes. The first detail i add to the face after crocheting most of the head sphere/shape.

Im already 1 hour into this project.

If i charge minimum wage, that’s already $16 for something that barely lookes like something.

The completed thing will probably take like. 16 hours? (VERY rough estimate)

If i were to sell these things (this also serves as why i do Not sell these things), they would probably go for, at a cost that is reasonable in terms of being paid for the time it takes me, between $200-400 depending on the complexity of the animal/thing im making.

I dont consider my work to be even close to professional. I wing it 90% of the time, which makes it take even longer lol. But still.

Im not about to sacrifice that much of my time for someone that i struggle to uphold my personal boundaries around. (I SHOULDN’T HAVE TO STRUGGLE. No matter how wishywashy i am. Once i set my boundaries out there, they should be respected damn it.)

why can't they get wet (pirates?) ?

in the one piece universe there are these things called devil fruits that look something like this

these fruits gives the user a special power like, turning your body to rubber, giving you control over fire, turning yourself into a leopard, ect ect, but at the cost of not being able to swim because the ocean HATES these fucking things

so anyone who ate one of these fruits can't swim, and should by all accounts avoid the water and yet. this is a pirate manga where everyone is traveling the worlds most dangerous ocean
