[breathlesspieceofdeath]

actually so excited about going to the clancy tour. i feel anxious in all the ways possible and more nostalgic than ive felt in a while.

im watching recent concerts on youtube gasping like im actually there when a certain song comes up, severely worrying about how im going to get good pics and videos with a decent quality, how early i have to get to the stadium and how im gonna SURVIVE in the crowd.

oh to be 14 again obsessing over a new song every week, reading the forest fic like it's sacred and just waiting for the day to be over so i can immerse in my little twenty one pilots world and find peace inside my head.

i want my experience to be perfect, but i know that however that day plays out, ill be happy about it because ill see my favorite band play my favorite songs and ill be so, so glad i made it all the way from 2018 to 2025 using tyler and josh's art to bear through those hard times.

ill be forever grateful for them. and i cant wait to see them❤️‍🩹

going on social media can be suuuper overwhelming. i'm talkin like...instagram, tiktok, twitter, sometimes facebook and sometimes snap chat. social media wise, im usually on instagram and tiktok and i have had to step away from those at times because i get so overwhelmed with...MY INTERESTS. not sure if this sounds weird. its just like... i cant keep up with it anymore like i used to back in middle school and high school. my special interests and/or hyperfixations overwhelm me at times; i suppose it has to do with my strong feelings towards my interests, like i tend to have intense feelings/emotions. i like how on tumblr it feels quieter and less in-my-face. when fall out boy was on tour, i had to step away from social media at times because of how strongly i felt towards them. id go on instagram and immediately hit with fall out boy updates or videos from the shows they did on tour. and of course i always was into the "lore" (2005 warped tour...if you know what i mean) and it was fun to talk about and still is! right now im getting a lot of twenty one pilots stuff and living in the moment where there's ongoing lore. so thats even WORSE because here i am trying to figure out what it all means and just...you know how that fuckin band has so much lore. blurryface n that shit. decoding stuff. trying to keep up to date since every show on the clancy tour, drops hints here n there. so im like OOOOH I GOTTA STAY ON TOP OF THIS!!!! and its like dude just wait until someone on reddit or youtube does a quick summary of whats going on at the moment stop trying to figure it all out yourself. at age 14 i was awake till 4am on a school night because of god damn blurryface shit going on on twitter. this also goes for monster high as well. trying to stay up to date with the new doll releases n shit. this was easier to handle back then -_-

the remainder of the ppt

when you say "clancy is dead" you mean emotionally right. right. cause he'll defeat nico. he will. he's my babie.

can i ask why the dragons name is trash?

why is only the second o in voldsoy got the thing thing (/)

poor keons :(

LANE BOY REFERENCE (okay so random side rant lane boy was actually the only reason i ever went on to listen to more of their music than just blurryface. i heard lane boy for the first time and i said "bitch give me" and i listened to vessel and then self-titled and then scaled and icy and i wound up here. so yes that song is so fucking special to me and fuck. yeah.)

wait we're the banditos??? aw thats really cute

oh that theory is. woah

and my notes, conclusions, theories

okay so i would like to preface this by saying that i read through my notes from the videos and i spent like 50% of the time just talking about josh. like what hes wearing. when hes being cute. when hes absolutely slaying an outfit that would look shit on anyone else. hes just so dfjkfjsdlkfjdskljfdslkjfkldsjfkldsj

so i obviously only have a base level understanding of the lore at this time but would it be presumptuous of me to say that i think the conclusion of the clancy lore would include a direct effort from the torchholder? or the banditos as a whole? i mean, not just down in the battlefield, but actually face-to-face with nico?

also i saw someone say something in a comment section that stuck with me; nico is never truly defeated? because hes a representation of tylers insecurities, so he can be fought off (with the help of banditos) but he's always going to exist, right? you cant eradicate self doubt. thats the whole point.

and thank you poppy so so so so much for all your help, guidance and teachings. i am now even more infuriated i dont have clancy tour tickets. i will also be talking to my tøp irl non-stop as soon as i see them next.

By Paul Waldman May 29 at 9:09 AM Jared Kushner, center, and President Trump, right.(Jabin Botsford/The Washington Post) The Trump White House is in crisis — and the people there have no idea what to do about it. Or to be more precise, they have plenty of ideas, but they’re all wrong. They seem to stem from a fundamental misunderstanding of what their problem is. As they rack their brains to figure out how they can handle the deepening Russia scandal and improve the president’s political standing, they’re coming up with solutions that are destined to fail. Let’s take a quick tour around some of the most recent reports from inside the White House. Here’s the Associated Press: The story must be told. Your subscription supports journalism that matters. Try 1 month for 99¢ President Donald Trump is assailing internal leaks as he considers an overhaul of his White House staff and grapples with a burgeoning crisis involving alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 campaign. Frustrated with what he views as his team’s inability to push back against the drumbeat of new revelations, Trump is seeking expanded teams of lawyers and experienced public relations hands. Here’s Politico: President Donald Trump has been aggressively working the phones since returning this weekend from his foreign trip, talking to friends and outside lawyers as he obsesses over the deepening investigations into his aides and Russia. Two White House officials said Trump and some aides including Steve Bannon are becoming increasingly convinced that they are victims of a conspiracy against Trump’s presidency, as evidenced by the number of leaks flowing out of government — that the crusade by the so-called “deep state” is a legitimate threat, not just fodder for right wing defenders. And here’s a report in The Post from over the weekend: President Trump and his advisers, seeking to contain the escalating Russia crisis that threatens to consume his presidency, are considering a retooling of his senior staff and the creation of a “war room” within the White House, according to several aides and outside Trump allies. Following Trump’s return to Washington on Saturday night from a nine-day foreign trip that provided a respite from the controversy back home, the White House plans to far more aggressively combat the cascading revelations about contacts between Trump associates — including Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and senior adviser — and Russia. Taken together, these reports paint a picture of a White House that is convinced that what it has is in large part a media problem. So creating a “war room” to craft and push out better spin seems to be the first item on the agenda. After that, they’re considering some kind of staff shakeup that would involve replacing some personnel with different people who would presumably do a better job. But that’s a fundamental misunderstanding of what is ailing this administration. It certainly has a media problem, but it isn’t because the administration hasn’t had the opportunity to get its side of the story out. Its side of the story is out — it’s just that it keeps being contradicted by the facts. If the White House is upset that journalists greet its latest spin with skepticism, that’s only because its lies have been so copious that no reporter can take what administration officials say at face value, and in every new controversy, there’s a strong chance they’re pushing out new lies, which will then inevitably be exposed. A staff “shakeup” isn’t going to solve their problem either. There is no team of top-notch Republican staffers just waiting to take over for the current White House staff — the smart ones don’t want to sully their reputations by working for this White House, and the problem is more often the jobs staffers are being asked to do than the people doing the job. For instance, you could replace Sean Spicer with some other spokesperson, but then that person would be told to go in front of the cameras and repeat things everyone knows is untrue, and then contradict themselves 24 hours later. Their reputation would quickly follow Spicer’s down the toilet. The real staff problem the White House has is those closest to the president, none more than Jared Kushner. Kushner is not only at the center of the Russia scandal; he’s also the most powerful staffer in the White House — and as is becoming clearer all the time, there may never have been a person less capable in that position. Kushner came to the job with zero political or government experience; you might recall that he was under the impression that the Obama White House staff would be staying on to serve President Trump. Yet with an apparently bottomless faith in his son-in-law’s abilities, Trump has assigned Kushner to reinvent government, solve the opioid crisis, and achieve Middle East peace, among other things. Kushner’s impeccable political instincts led him to encourage the president to fire FBI Director James B. Comey and assure him “that it would be a political ‘win’ that would neutralize protesting Democrats because they had called for Mr. Comey’s ouster over his handling of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server, according to six West Wing aides.” Play Video 2:18 Russian ambassador told Moscow that Kushner wanted secret channel with Kremlin Why did Jared Kushner ask to set up a secret communications channel between the Trump transition team and the Kremlin? (Video: Alice Li,McKenna Ewen/Photo: Jabin Botsford/The Washington Post) And now we learn that this ignorant neophyte — who seems, like many rich white guys, to have a confidence utterly unwarranted by his actual abilities — thought he was a character in a Tom Clancy novel, when he’s actually a character right out of “Veep.” His suggestion to the Russians that they set up a secret communications channel in a Russian facility was so ludicrous that even the Russians were shocked. And alone among White House staffers, Kushner can’t be fired. But even he is not the real problem, and the problem the White House has no way to solve. That problem is, of course, the president himself. As much as Trump complains internally about his communications staff, they can’t have any credibility when they’re told to defend Trump’s spectacular bumbling and endless waterfall of lies. The people who work on policy are hampered by the ever-shifting messages emanating from the Oval Office on what Trump wants. Just last night he tweeted, “I suggest that we add more dollars to Healthcare and make it the best anywhere,” at a moment when Republicans are proposing to slash hundreds of billions of dollars from health-care spending. All the crises, all the chaos, all the scandals begin with Donald Trump. He’s the one who fired Comey, then admitted on camera that he did it because of the Russia investigation. He’s the one who blurts out secrets to other governments, out of either a deep need to impress people or sheer stupidity (“You can’t say what not to say,” one person close to the White House told CNN, “because that will then be one of the first things he’ll say”). He’s the one who rages internally against leaks, then sends out a series of tweets alleging that leaks are not leaks at all, but are in fact fabricated by news organizations, which keeps his core supporters in a state of denial and antagonizes honest journalists. So the White House can shake itself up all it wants. How much damage the Russia scandal does will be determined not by whether the Trump administration has a good “war room,” but by how deep it goes and whether crimes were committed — in other words, by the facts. Passing some meaningful legislation might help, but not if it’s as stunningly unpopular as what has been proposed so far. And as long as Donald Trump keeps being Donald Trump, its problems will never be over.
