This album (Music for Tourists) got a lot of flack from “critics” for poor lyricism but I beg to differ.
I didn’t come to see the city / I went to see it around you -Chris Garneau, Relief
This whole album is a comfort album for me and I might make an analysis post later explaining why.

finally stepped foot on the sacred grounds of miraculous ladybug
#so i went outside to touch grass and ended up in. paris#it has been a Weekend <- ticked off the list every possible tourist attraction (and a few underrated spots) in less than 4 days#and man. that is one big city#excellent food. surreal views. strange but wonderful sensation of seeing that famous landmarks/paintings/french ppl actually exist#also great place to converse in all the languages you know :D it's like the whole world is there#history all around. very musical. spotted a little girl in a lb onesie. the grass-touching was literal (had to see that one stadium)#got a custom shirt of my fav player and a dazai noodle stopper. also the muscle soreness of all time <- all of them thoroughly worth it#yk i COULD proudly say i was just plagging around paris- except no lazing around was done whatsoever#quite possibly the experience of the year 😌#now if you'll excuse me i need to sleep until christmas

I was in Nashville for a business trip and took this picture of Captain Tom Ryman near the Ryman Auditorium (the original Grand Ole Opry).
My Business Colleagues included an East Tennessee native and several country music fans, I think they got a lot more out of this trip than I did. We accomplished more sight-seeing than I expected—it's not like I came here for fun. Of course I'm more interested in a riverboat captain statue than barhopping! I also enjoyed seeing the Cumberland River on the few times we drove over it, still a working waterfront.
#shaun talks#the other thing i will say about nashville is that it's very expensive and the highways are a nightmare#i don't know why i'm surprised when it has been a tourist trap and 'music city' for a gazillion years#for someone really into country music it's probably worth it#thank goodness i didn't have to drive a vehicle

This was the main reason we were going to New York; my sister really loves Back to the Future, and really wanted to see the musical. It was an absolute blast, and the effects were amazing! I really enjoyed some of the comedic moments with Doc and Marty (it kinda felt like they were trying to make each other laugh and I loved it, lol),
“This was our view from our seats!”
As I was typing this, my sister informed me that they’re going to close it down in January because the show isn’t making enough money to offset the cost to run it. If you have the chance to see it before it closes, definitely go for it. It’s one hell of a ride!

i have done...an absolute deep dive into blues and folk music tonight. it was 100% one of those blink and three hours have passed type of deals. worth it though.
#be warned if you go into the tags i will explain how this all came up. educational but long!#so it started with two questions. mostly because i live in the ozarks i wanted to know and secondly i like music if you haven't caught on#(btw i am so giving you guys the quick and easy version if you are reading this at all)#anyway. the first question was 'why does the ozarks have such a country influence but also bluegrass but also blues but also folk but al-'#because while i grew up in stl i am now like. living living in the ozarks right? right. and i for sure can see how we are the like...#the little sibling of the appalachian mountains. and i thought it was just cause aw cute mini mountains (highlands people)#but instead its cause there were settlers from appalachia! which makes a ton of sense now seeing influences and culture etc etc#so we cleared up that. we know why the ozarks is the way it is (or at least part of it)#btw anyone who says branson is a “true reflection” of the ozarks is out of their damn minds.#that shit is tourist central and just drives me up the wall. they are playing a parody of themselves is the best way to describe it#caricature maybe??? point is. “h'yuck h'yuck we're the country jubilee!” is not uhhhh ozarks and never was?#like it was but they took it a step further. so. anyway#can you tell i'm fixated on this right now? moving on! question 2 was quite literally 'what genre is this song'#it's 'fault line' by black rebel motorcycle club (which i highly suggest everyone listen to)#but i was like hmmm very bluesy harmonica but just fingerpicking guitar so that's more folksy#so! i went on a deep dive of what technically considers blues blues and what folk is. and guess what! the ozarks play into this too#because! the thing is that the ozarks is weird. st louis is technically not in the ozarks but on the outskirts. and stl is influenced by...#the mississippi delta! therefore blues music which led to rock and roll etc#(that's a whole other tangent for another day on stl and blues and rock and roll)#but anyway it makes sense that once you have folks from stl area coming down to the ozarks then you also have that combo of...#mississippi delta and appalachia music. so then we go back to “fault line” right?#i have declared it folk mostly because it definitely doesn't follow traditional blues progression or call and response.#so anyway. deep dive tonight was basically what is this song's genre and how does that wrap into where i live!#which also. brmc is like...usually listed as a “rock” band from san francisco which hey! awesome.#but like. from the songs i've heard and especially causing me to do this deep dive...they do not strike me as a californian band#music is cool! regions are cool! culture is cool! i just like to see how it's all spread out ya know?#if you've read this far gold star! i hope you've learned something tonight from reading the ramblings of a fixated person#i'm rambling again aren't i

i have a fic idea if i ever get around to it i want to start soon where it's zukka modern au where they decide to take really long road trip before sokka has to go back home and it's supposed to be a fun last hurrah but it's tinged by the fact that they both want to confess but it's too late
(aka long drives on the endless road where you really start to think about what you want in life and what you want is the person next to you and you just can't have it.)
and also accidentally getting high on cactus juice because they got lost and sokka thought hey, i'm an outdoorsman, i totally got this (he doesn't have this)
#im thinking “there was only one bed” im thinking let me drive while you sleep and oops almost crashed bc i was watching you and not the roa#im thinking arguing over music#im thinking stargazing#im thinking we couldn't find a motel so we gotta cuddle in the back of this super cold car#this was gonna be a joke but now i actually might try and write this#something something mirroring zuko alone and he's not alone but he will be soon!!!#featuring an accidental confession followed by an awkwardly silent four hour drive until they reach the next stupid tourist attraction

The 6th Avenue’s official name was changed to Avenue of the Americas in 1945 by the City Council, at the behest of Mayor Fiorello La Guardia, who signed the bill into law on October 2, 1945.
