Forget whatever the intentional meaning was behind a song and start relating it to your own life

Because when Bears in Trees said ‘you didn’t want a boy to free you, you just needed a confidant’ and I realised that I only liked that guy because he was the only one that ever listened to me, and when Bears in Trees said ‘my preferred disposition would be for you to break my heart’ and ‘this love feels weird so I simply won’t believe it’ and I realised how complicated and confusing my relationship with my parents was, and when Bears in Trees said ‘I used to think I only had two states, forcibly yellow or a default grey’ and I realised that I had been living my life on autopilot, refusing to let myself feel because I was terrified of breaking, and when Bears in Trees said ‘would anyone listen to this, the ramblings of a lunatic’ and I wanted to scream because I’d felt ignored by everyone and everything for so long, and when Bears in Trees said ‘you won’t remember these lines in the morning, let’s just forget about it’ and I thought about how I can never express my true feelings because I was scared of change, and when Bears in Trees said ‘we used to be so pure, so fragile and raw’ and I realised how different and hopeful and innocent I was just a couple of years ago, and when Bears in Trees said ‘when my identity is entirely the maniac you see, if I became healthy would I stop being me’ and I knew that I was refusing to process any pain that I went through in case I changed who I was, and when Bears in Trees said ‘screaming hold my hand but please don’t touch me’ and I realised how much I wanted comfort but refused to be vulnerable, and when Bears in Trees said ‘put down the blades and swim to the shoreline, well oh god I’ve tried’ and I wanted to scream because I couldn’t understand why everyone around me could do the basic tasks that I couldn’t, and when Bears in Trees said ‘heaven sent is the way you say you’re proud of me you’re unconditionally loved’ and I wanted to be loved purely and completely without a fear of being seen as wrong and different and broken, and when Bears in Trees said ‘but I left at 2am to catch the first flight away from you (don’t touch me)’ and I considered how much I struggled to open up to the ones I love, and when Bears in Trees said ‘I must possess the thought that progress is a process’ and I felt such an intense fear of failure and refusal to commit because of it

Because music and art is so important in understanding how we perceive ourselves and the world around us and it is there to be looked at and admired and used and related to because we are all living in such a ridiculous world and this is what we were made to do

#Back on my bears in trees bs #I have an unhealthy obsession with this band #But anyway #bears in trees #confidant #Simply won’t believe it #Array of light #ramblings of a lunatic #kent has a lot of fields pt 3 #Cut corners on short walks #Rust #I’m doing push-ups #Good rhymes for bad times #Heaven sent is a coffee cup #it gets better #evergreen

this broken leg experience has made me realize how much muscle you need just to move around the house. I can walk without the cast now, but squatting to pick something up? kneeling and then rising? even standing for a long period in the kitchen takes a lot. and carrying things too, that’s something I couldn’t do while hopping about on crutches. every night I’ve been going to sleep with sore legs and arms just from performing my normal non-intensive household tasks.

#my body also holds onto muscle tone very poorly #like to an unusual extent. I could never keep up with my peers when I was a kid #and I’ve never been able to do a push up #it’s why I dedicate so much time to working out (when I’m healthy enough to)#I have to train hard just to reach the bodily strength of your average desk worker lmao

Leo getting hit with a truth curse but instead of forcing him to admit to super sad or worrying things it’s things like “it was me who broke the remote” “I saw Mikey prank Donnie and helped hide it because it’s way funnier if he didn’t know who it was” “I rip my clothes to look more like Raph’s because he’s really cool” “my stripes aren’t even red they’re pink!”

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt leo #rise leo #plot twist he COULD be admitting angsty stuff but he’s pushing the less oof truths forward instead on purpose #raph: hey leo what do you want for dinner #leo: *about to bare his soul on all his internal torment but pivots* I’m afraid of snakes #(no but fr Leo’s stripes being technically more pink instead of red is cute ngl)#(a very reddish pink to the point that in certain lighting it looks red but at the base they’re p pink)#(i also am very fond of the idea that Leo doesn’t just have questionable taste in fashion he also just loves Raph a lot and looks up to him)#but yeah I think that something like this would be 99% Leo admitting to unimportant things or admitting to how much he values everyone #like they all KNOW Leo loves them and he’s talked them up enough for them to know but it’s different when he’s like #‘I just wanna read my comics with you guys around - it’s my favorite place to be’#or again just random bs that doesn’t REALLY have a lot of weight like #‘I like using my portals to prank random people around the world’#‘I’m worried about being a bad influence on hueso jr’#‘sometimes I kinda wanna see hypno’s plans succeed’#‘it’s been way too long since I found this out and honestly it’s embarrassing but I actually don’t have a di-‘#SORRY COULDNT HELP MYSELF #(<-but did u know that that pink rather than red observation actually ties into this headcanon as well if u know about red eared sliders)

Happy new years… let’s stay hydrated together ✨

#I didn’t end up going to the rave just stayed in with my buddies and had KFC (( Korean fried chicken )) and laughed til we cried so #it was still a wonderful start to the new year 💞🥰💞#but the fwb wanted pics of my potential rave look so I figured eh I brought the stuff anyways #and now I’m imagining locking eyes with a stranger on the warm and writhing dance floor #the beat thumps and shakes and rattles the air in our breath as the spotlights dance in the reflections of our held gaze #he pushes his way through the crowd with a singular stare and a wicked smile on his face #I smile and turn my back on him arching myself so he knows I am giving what he’s looking for #I take careful steps through the revelry toward the edge where the crowd thins out #I prop myself up on an available stool in a lonely corner of the club as he closes the distance between us #“now I wonder why you dragged me all the way here” he utters in a playful growl “trying to get far away from the crowd?”#I smile and I nod. “obviously. can’t really do what I want with you out there”#his eyes perk up and his smile gives away the desire building inside him. “yeah? why don’t you show me then.”#“I thought you’d never ask” I smirk. I reach down into my pants and pull out my phone #“so this one is blue. he’s the oldest but he’s sooooo sweet. and that’s Eva. my only girl she’s sassy but she loves swea-” he leaves #whaddahell I say demurely whimpering even… whaddahell…#gpoy

Just a girl who wants to be her mother’s daughter in the ways that matter

#Such a tenacious go getter & the smartest woman ik #Has NEVER looked back at a man twice. Knows she’s beautiful & that attention is guaranteed. Never desperate for male validation ever #The best fashion sense ik. She’s the epitome of classic & vintage #Doesn’t gaf what others are doing / is always tunnel visioned on her own goals #A mega workaholic and like. Maybe I’d rather balance but still she’s still an overachiever #I feel im becoming more and more like her by the day but still I have some work to do #Need to be more focused & to stop entertaining little boys fr #I just want to move w the unshackling confidence & elegance she seems to emanate effortlessly #I swear that woman was born that way!!!! So unfair for the rest of us mortals #Why does no one talk about the psychological torture that comes w having a naturally gorgeous genius mother #I’m dying over here I just wanna be like her but im pushing that boulder up the hill all the time #Meanwhile she’s always just On #HOW #Just an eldest daughter having a crisis about her mother who is also #The eldest daughter out of her and her two brothers #I need to journal about this I need to meditate #How to manufacture the drive that your mother was simply endowed with at birth #Not even joking I just got off my internship and now im sitting on a swing under the late May sun having a crisis about this

thinking about trying to do rangeland firefighting for at least one summer while I’m still in my 20s with derangements that make me love toiling like a medieval peasant but in order to do it next summer I would need to undergo a second, less illegal and contentious but some would say more difficult transition with my body. theatre kid to jock

#it would be such a cool experience but as you can imagine you need to meet a fitness requirement so the fires don’t destroy you etc etc #classic fire behavior but anyway you need to be able to walk 3 miles with a 45 pound pack in 45 minutes #it’s a test given by the forest service #however there are also a few other guidelines which are:#-can run 1.5 miles in 10 minutes 30 seconds #-can do 25 push ups #-can do 40 sit-ups #-can do 7 pull ups #easy for anyone who played footed ball in high school but unfortunately I was too busy not lifting things up and putting them down #but now I’m like. perhaps I could also pick heavy things up and put them down

honestly i just dont get why sometimes people get all weird about quadrants and insist they’re unhealthy always no matter what

like yeah im not stupid i know they CAN be fucked up and can be weird and toxic but so can any romance. human romance has been toxic and fucked up for me many times. tbh if we take a step back and just look at the basic ideas of all of them i don’t think any of those have to be evil and terrible necessarily

like oh no me and my boyfriend have a fun rivalry that we both like being in and both agreed to where we have fun competing with each other and talking shit and then make out! FUCK!!! that’s horrible i would NEVER want that! i would never be guilty of forcing my boyfriend to play tetris with me over and over and insulting him the entire time

oh no my boyfriend has anxiety and i calm him down! oh god we like cuddling and talking about feelings! we both agreed we like this relationship dynamic and feel fulfilled by it! AAA SCARY!!! GET SCARED!!!

oh no sometimes my boyfriends are both annoying and i voluntarily get between that and make people be less annoying! FUCK!!!!!!!! we are going to DIVORCE!!!

#it’s cool if you don’t personally want any of those things #and yeah #alternia is fucked up #big fucked up murder planet #they love insane fucked up rules that are bad for everyone #but idk i feel like all romance is kind of fucked up #and you usually always have to do an insane amount of work to make it healthy and normal lol #and none of these dynamics by necessity HAVE to be horrible #you don’t HAVE to only rely on your moirail and not talk to your friends about your feelings #you don’t HAVE to get fucked up with your kismesis #you don’t HAVE to be a sad unfulfilled auspistice who kinda gets pushed into the relationship #if i’m thinking about the dynamics purely just as concepts #none of that shits a requirement #idk if this makes any sense to anyone else lmao #i just mean like #i don’t think any of those things are uniquely terrible i guess not in any ways that human romance isn’t #and people manage to have ok human romances all the time #not as often as they should lmao #but sometimes #so why not quadrants #i can get being uncomfortable with them #they’re weird #and definitely more complex than i went into in the post #but i don’t think they’re uniquely terrible

Hangman says weird shit when he gets nervous

As in, he overshares when he gets nervous and isn’t sure what to say, sometimes it’s just trauma dumping and sometimes it’s sexual and sometimes it’s just… idk weird

He usually has it under control, the pressure of his job is not the thing that gets him, it’s the stress of his life outside of work

—

Example 1:

Ice: nice to meet you, Jake

Hangman: pleasure’s all mine sir, you have a beautiful house, you know, I used to live in a house just like this before my dad kicked me out and disowned me

Ice:

Hangman: sorry

—

Example 2:

Coyote: so?

Hangman: so what?

Coyote: did you tell him?

Hangman: I told him that I can’t stand him and that I want to **** his **** and then have him **** me until I can’t breath and hopefully until he can’t speak

Coyote:

Coyote: instead of… I love you?

Hangman: I got nervous ._.

—

Example 3:

Rooster: are you sure you’re ok?

Hangman: of course, it’s just a funeral, haven’t even seen the man in more than a decade

Rooster: yeah but he’s still your dad, you’re allowed to be upset

Hangman: hmm

Hangman: hey, did you know that like 1% of people get buried alive?

Rooster: I didn’t know that

Rooster: ready to go?

Hangman, taking his hand: hopefully he won’t wake up mid ceremony

#am I autistic and tend to over share information when I’m nervous and don’t know what to say? absolutely #Bradley and Coyote get used to it very quickly and they can identify it #and then know what to do #it takes other some time #am I…. pushing the autistic Jake Seresin agenda?… no I couldn’t possibly…. could I?… no… 👀#do I actually think they kicked him out and disowned him? idk but I needed to put something so ce la vie #is the number of people that get buried alive real? I think idk I’m not good at research #tom iceman kazansky #hangster #top gun #iceman kazansky #top gun maverick #Jake seresin #hangman #rooster #bradley bradshaw #Jake netting Mav and ice as Bradley’s parents fucks him up #icemav

At its core the most important relationship arc in Avatar the last air bender is the one between Zuko and Aang honestly if you can’t see that then I don’t think we watched the same show.

Aang and Zuko are the true Yin and Yang in the show the push and pull. Fire and Air right down to their personalities.

It is both of them that have to go on the journey of learning that fire is more than just destruction can be used for more than just to hurt.

And that right there is the point it doesn’t matter if Aang defeats Ozai and they bring the fire nation to heel. Without a character like Zuko the fire nation would be lost forever to distrust and unrest, balance would never be reached. Because despite everything they have done all the damage they have wreaked the world still needs the fire nation and to work with the fire nation they need to know that fire can do more than hurt. And who best to show them than a prince who’s been burned himself?

The war started with the fire nation attacking the air nomads in a bid for control and it will end with the fire lord embracing an air nomad and taking ownership of his nations actions. You must first close a book before you can start a new one.

Aang needed Zuko just as Zuko needed him because to get peace a true lasting peace you can’t just cut off the head of a snake you have to change its mind. The world already lost the air nomads the balance is already precarious, it cannot afford to lose the fire nation too.

Afterall Air can snuff out a flame and it can also fan them. But when the two elements are balanced one existing in peace with the other it can also make a warm hearth for the home.

#they are literally each others foils even when they are on opposite sides they help each other grow into who they are meant to be #of course there are still dissenters and Ozai supporters #but the country is not in upheaval like it would have been if a whole new leader was put in place by the alliance #or if the alliance had to take up temporary rule #also having zuko already on their side means they could mostly just kick off on rehabilitation #Atla #avatar the last airbender #zuko #aang #avatar aang #Prince zuko #atla analysis #atla meta #atla zuko #atla aang #god the fact that pro Aang is an established tag kills me 😭#fire nation #air nomads #character analysis #I know a lot of people claim tui and la for zutara but honestly katara and zuko are far too alike to be push and pull #but again do as you please I’m just giving my opinion on my blog please do not attack me #zukaang
