I had an idea to redesign vox because I didn't love that a character obsessed with modernization would wear a top hat and bowtie. then after a brief stint into madness where I read my partner's historic costuming textbook I drew.... all this.

(side note: the idea of vox being a trans man who transitioned AFTER death was super compelling and absolutely inspired by @prince-liest so while this is not direct fanart of their series I wanted to give a shoutout anyway!!!)

okay some TRULY unhinged rambling about historic costume below the cut YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

1950s: for this design I very much did not want to go to the typical a-line housewife look, because I feel that is unfitting for vox's character. instead I went for a more business look, but there is still a level of femininity that he would have been expected to perform. i wanted to express his discomfort with that through the pose and expression, though at the time he wouldn't necessarily have a framework for why he hated it

1960s: this one was very fun. i loved the idea of vox beginning to eschew some of the expected feminine presentation, and he no longer wears makeup, jewelry, or hose (though its hard to tell in black & white); however, he's kind of at war with himself in this time period. he's obsessed with seeming perfect and having a respectable image, so he would not go in for the counter-culture movements that were so big in the 60s. he's still kind of riding those coattails though, pushing those boundaries while still not acknowledging his queerness.

1970s: to me, it was very important that the gender hit as he entered the world in color. in my mind the gender euphoria is physically manifested in a wizard of oz situation - he can become who he always has been. anyway, gender aside, I think it was very important to me personally that he wore an ascot. it was for my mental health.

1980s: I wanted the 1980s to be the period where he began to gain some power and notoriety because of the de-regulation of television during this period to allow more ads, mirroring real-world history. I think if the 70s were when vox gained some real confidence, the 80s are when he got an Ego (tm). "business casual" also began to become more acceptable in this time period, and the t-shirt/suit jacket combo was very important for me to include, as to me it epitomizes the commercialism and machismo of the 80s.

1990s: this was actually the decade I was the most nervous to design, and yet I think it turned out the best? the 90s are known for grunge, which I think is NOT vox's style at all. I decided instead to lean hard into the yuppie look, which I know is more associated with the 80s but was definitely still a thing in the 90s. I also allowed a little hip-hop influence in the form of a gold chain from val, which is not something I think vox would ever pick on his own.

2000s: if the 90s were the decade I was worried about and turned out great, the 2000s are the decade I thought I had down SO GOOD and then totally floundered in execution. I still love the bubble-mac inspired head, and I tried to make his clothes as "round" as possible. I also like that this is the time where his saturation got cranked. however, I don't know if I'm in love with the vest and super bright sneakers, because again, looking back on it, he kind of looks like he works at a movie theater or best buy or some shit lol,,,

2010s: I think it's telling that this is by far the closest to his canon design (2014 tumblr lookin ass). I really wanted to pull from that hipster tech bro era, but unfortunately that aesthetic has a veneration for "retro" which again, is not fitting for vox. I still think he would wear the bowtie during this time because, well... he sure does in the show!

2020s: this was fun because I had an excuse to pull from haute couture design rather than street fashion because of the introduction of velvette into his life. I truly do not think velvette would let vox and val walk around in the outfits that they do because it would be an actual embarrassment LMAO. for this, I wanted his decorative "robes" to be evocative of the time he depicted himself as a priest AND of a cape/robe of an emperor. he does think of himself as that bitch, after all.

Thanks to the internet, and the prolific careers of Leonard Dreyfus and his siblings, Mac was able to dive even deeper into their family history. It turned out Leonard was part of a successful brood, and soon enough Mac was reading about his famous elder brother Desmond - the first man on the moon - and his younger sister Violet, the hollywood starlet. It was simply amazing - how had so many notable people come from the one family?

The enduring Lenny and the Rollers community of fans had mapped out the entirety of Leonard's family and background, and wikipedia provided Mac with all of their names. Leonard was born in England to parents Alexander and Margot, but grew up in the suburbs of Del Sol Valley in a neighbourhood that was now highly gentrified and revered. And the internet sleuths had pinpointed the exact home.

Mac found themselves out the front of an indimidating retro-modern home, hoping that this in fact was the house that Leonard Dreyfus and his siblings had grown up in. Steeling themselves for the awkward conversation with its new inhabitants, Mac walked up to the front door and knocked.

When they had explained their expedition to uncover their relations to the homes famous pre-occupants, the new owners were more than happy to invite Mac inside. The house was incredibly chic, tastefully refurbished in the intervening years, and its occupants a successfuly power couple.

Walking outside, Mac noticed the rose bush in the yard, perfectly maintained and manicured. They pulled out the photograph they had printed out of the Dreyfus family and held it up, noticing the similarities. This was it - this was the house that they had grown up in. Mac was chuffed that their investigation had brought them here - that they had been right at every step so far.

What if: modern ultraman leo

shopping this one around, huh? well i actually do have many many thoughts on the topic so i'll take the opportunity, sure

i agree with tep that it's difficult to imagine on several levels... like you just do not get misery like that in these shows anymore. a heisei leo like 2000-2005 might've been able to get away with it, but reiwa leo would undoubtedly not be able to horribly murder the entire supporting cast. and also probably would not be able to have the dangen relationship be so. um. "fraught," without changing some core aspect of said relationship. and without both of those things it really loses appeal. since that's a lot of what leo is when i immediately think of it. it's dangen weird toxic energy and also everyone dying.

and i think the sfx quality and aesthetics of the 70s add so much to leo, too. the way certain miniature sets have this amateurish diorama look to them. the bright colors and retro screen effects used to depict certain things. like reading a fairytale popup picture book. it creates such a dreamlike mood. leo to me is being inside a dream that's always walking this thin line between idyllic and becoming a total nightmare. and i don't think modern ultra looks bad by any means but it is undeniably so much flatter and less colorful, less daring with the kinds of visuals it puts onscreen. hard to think that it could ever recreate that vibe.

but, man... i do think sometimes about how good it could be to see leo's story aspects redone with modern storytelling sensibilities and continuity and shit. like imagine getting to see gen introspect more about his home, everything he's lost, the loneliness of being one of only two of his kind on the whole planet. getting more insight into what changed dan into this type of person. getting a comprehensible plotline for astra that wasn't just being made up as they went along. getting actual personalities and attachments to the other MAC members so you really feel the impact when they die (or maybe just get nonfatally injured in this case).

tl;dr - i wish modern leo existed, honestly. i don't know if it could be successful by any metric but just to see them try. as a fun challenge to be graded personally by me and the world's 5 other leo scholars

Meg’s Monster gets ready to release adventure and test you

Meg’s Monster retro turn-based JRPG game on Linux, Mac, and Windows PC soon. Thanks to the epic minds beind developer Odencat. Which is all due to make its way onto Steam. Japan indie publisher / developer Odencat Inc. is gearing up to release their epic, stylized, retro turn-based JRPG game. Which is also creating ripples in its homeland, which is due in the West on March 2nd, 2023. Meg’s Monster is coming to both Linux and Steam Deck. Which has also been in development for the last two years. So now, the final touches are being completed to make this one of Odencat Inc’s most ambitious releases. Which is due to include multi-language options. Coming after successful releases including Bear's Restaurant. Along with amazing community support and anticipation for the game. Meg’s Monster chronicles the story of two very unlikely friends. While encased in a unique, raw, scripted, turn-based battle system. Where the player controls a nigh invincible monster who must defeat enemies. Doing so while protecting a fragile human child with strange apocalyptic powers. Because if she cries, the whole world dies. Meg, the human child, (whose tears just so happen to hold the power to bring forth the apocalypse) winds up in a world full of mutants and monsters. They also eat humans for breakfast. It’s up to a hulking brute named Roy and his pal Golan to help her make it back home. While they scour the Underworld for clues regarding her mother’s location. So the trio slowly warm up to one another. While also uncovering some truly amazing secrets about their world and themselves.

Meg’s Monster Teaser Trailer

Meg��s Monster’s retro style and simple in presentation quickly unfolds into a challenging, amusing, and must-play RPG. The story quickly pulls the player into the story while at the same time giving a real empathy for the characters. Over 50,000 words of dialogue give a rich and compelling story to the many battles coming as you venture forth. Each battle comes with its own unique mechanics and minigames to master. So you can duke it out while protecting and keeping Meg happy with her favourite toys. Yes, keeping Meg calm and happy is just one underlying factor. A nice toy will achieve this. But it’s not that simple in Meg’s Monster. Roy, the monster, has 99999 HP and is almost invincible (as in almost every enemy can’t kill him; think Saitama from One Punch Man). However, when he takes damage, the other protagonist, Meg, takes emotional and mental damage in Meg’s Monster. Since she is a child and can’t bear to see Roy getting hurt. If her mental gauge reaches zero, she’ll cry and the world ends. This means that players will need to balance Meg’s mood, as well as defeating enemies that want to destroy them. Roy will need to use toys to keep Meg happy and prevent her from crying. The Demo for Linux, Mac, and Windows PC is available on Steam. Should you want to test your skill at keeping Meg calm. Also, famed Monster Hunter, Hi-Fi Rush, and Atelier Ryza 2 composer Reo Uratani, and a main theme featuring ethereal, otherworldly lyrics written and performed by Laura Shigihara of Plants vs Zombies™, To the Moon, Rakuen, and Deltarune fame, Meg’s Monster soundtrack has much to offer. Meg’s Monster retro turn-based JRPG game will be live on Steam, March 2nd, 2023. Priced at $14.99 USD / £10.99 / 13,99€. Along with support for Linux, Steam Deck, Mac, and Windows PC.

It's kind of funny I was very young acting as Carrie MacLeod and I was kind of into the scene in the wearing the clothing and it's kind of mallrat clothing but a little step up he says and it's true it was kind of a little retro and he liked it and he was he said stylish and it's a little young and I pretended I was upset I'm not that young not at mine and not at mind. And he was really jealous insanely jealous and I kind of forgiven cuz I see what they're doing it's horrible they're doing it to me and I'm not really taking it as bad but it is kind of tough so I want to see him up there I'm really revamping the place and getting it ready then be busy doing something else you're already trying to find me and they can't yeah the kind of weird and incompetent and yeah my husband would probably find me so it's going that way but yeah we have a lot of things to discuss one of them is how well he's doing right now is doing pretty good today was tough he's sore pretty sore and he needs to rest for real he needs to take a day off and he needs to get food but he'll have to do that I guess he wants to go get turkey tomorrow somewhere I think she'll find it at the grocery store and they probably will they might have something some dinners or something is hoping for so I'm getting ready for that cuz I know that he's going even if he says he's not and I'm going to help out today and I didn't really like it but he says work kind of doing that but they're the ones having it done and it couldn't turn the evil but people are not really into ebikes and we discovered that and BG is admitting it and if there's some laughter he doesn't think it's funny but he knows that he can make a scooter or moped or motorcycle pretty easy and he's kind of being blocked by the trumpster still and they don't really have a company it's getting really absurd and angering this is some angering stuff man so we're going to make some announcements in a few he's going to try and kill himself a little but we're going to come back in a moment but I do thank my husband for helping me and he is telling me that the jobs getting bigger maybe but right now he says they'll probably be blocked and I agree cuz they're blocking what I'm doing and I'm doing it through other people and the blocking a lot of it even though he needs stuff there the ones who say they want to provide it they're aware of some of it too and I'll tell you they're putting some effort in and they also want him to dry clean the suit and store it somewhere it says it looks kind of brown and he knows it's brown they say so I'm moving out right now but I love my husband he loves me he says and don't never change so I can find you and Carrie he's a wise ass but I still love him for it

Hera

We're going ahead with this just having some hip pain and really should not but it is from strain and stress and using it but really it's a little bit much so we're going to help out it's enough for us and it's the Mac proper and we're getting on it and we do have a plan we are going to make some major announcements shortly and he says he really needed the Sun and he did he's probably a little burn but he needed it he got major exposure and it might jump started a little he went out when one of the waves and he has done the job he's probably going to be instead of 17.5 he'll be 17 and tomorrow might drop to 16 and we shall see and that's how it works but still going to take some time not much we're moving out and we are going to start working right now

Dheepa’s “Inner Flame” Shines in New York’s Music Scene

12 songs that showcase the singer’s varied and dynamic style

August 2024—Dheepa is a promising artist in New York City who recently released her latest release, “Inner Flame.” Drawing from her grandmother’s Hindustani melodies and blending pop, rock, and blues, Dheepa’s music offers a fusion of cultural influences and emotions. In addition, her style is truly timeless because it combines classic inferences from the '60s, '70s, and '80s with modern sounds that are more present and crisp.

Her musical journey has been shaped by her study of Indian and Western classical music and her experiences in cities like Dallas, New York, and Los Angeles. Albums such as “On 4th Street” (2010) and “Patchwork” (2015) established her distinctive sound, combining jazz with contemporary elements. However, she continued to evolve and explore new creative avenues over the years.

In 2022, Dheepa collaborated with Brazilian producer Sandro Albert on “Good Intentions,” adding soulful vibes to her repertoire. Her 2023 cover series, “Light of Day,” showcased her versatility with reinterpretations of classic songs. Many artists tend to re-create cover songs verbatim, but she actually really owned the songs in a very special way, making them sound very personal.

With “Inner Flame,” Dheepa continues to evolve, offering a deeply personal collection that reflects her unique artistic journey. The production is crisp and powerful, highlighting Dheepa’s vocals and intricate arrangements with precision. Each detail in the 12 songs is meticulously crafted, allowing the blend of instruments and genres to shine through and tell a powerful story. This attention to detail ensures the emotional depth of the music resonates with listeners from all walks of life.

“Inner Flame” is a special and inspirational work that combines a wide range of styles and offers a powerful and positive message. The opening track, “Man Behind the Curtain,” is a soulful, immersive ballad with a retro pop-rock flavor reminiscent of iconic bands like Fleetwood Mac but with a more contemporary twist, particularly in the production.

Another highlight is the song “Pretend I’m Fine,” which features energetic rock influences that add excitement to the mix. There’s also a fantastic rendition of “Let It Be,” made famous by the Beatles. Dheepa stays true to the original while making it her own, particularly through a more minimalistic piano arrangement that showcases her vocal range and emotional delivery.

Learn more about Dheepa and don’t miss “Inner Flame,” which is now available on major digital streaming platforms.

music anon, hello again! i ADORE that your sister was/is such a positive influence in your life. mine too! sad about the brothers though... not to be a prying cliche but it sounds like you had a big family who were into southern/american music? country isnt really a popular thing here in the uk but i can see it being a staple for life in the midwest/southern states of the us. i really hope these memories arent connected to anything bad re: your sexuality :(

your partner being into old folk rock tho... james taylor? joni mitchell? if so, i appreciate him even more than i already do for making you so happy hehe

'Chill in attitude. High strung soul.' - you ARE will byerrrrrrrrssssss <333

yeah s4 did music so well. i cant wait for s5. i really wanna know more of mike's taste in music. it would add so much to the byler lore. is he a retro synth guy like the spotify playlists suggest??? i really feel like he is a synth nerd <3 we already know dustin loves weird al lmao!!! and please do example a lofi song you hate if you can think of one, i'm curious

Shout out to sisters!! I love mine so much - she got me into fandom stuff, too. The quintessential cool nerd, but I never quite managed the cool part like she did haha. And hmm. Yeah. Complicated relationships re: family. The 'rents are mostly cool now. I love my sister and I'm close with one brother. I don't speak to the others much. 🙄 I think that says what it needs to.

And 💙 is just so ahhhh. He's gotten me into his old man music and I'm honestly glad for it. So, spot on. He's such a wallflower and I am ridiculous and I think our musical tastes being so opposite is cool since it's allowed us to branch out together. I'm so into CSNY and Fleetwood Mac now from him. And I'm proud I got that man to absolutely vibe with Dua Lipa since she's a big faaaave 😊

I am DESPERATE for anything more about Mike. I need to know if those spotify lists were accurate, who made and approved them??? New wave and synth is great for Mike! It's got such good queer undertones while still being a little dorky and nerdy?

Ok, I pulled up some playlists and artists I consider the sound style of music that's popular right now that I'm not about: Bille Eilish, Cigarettes After Sex, Glass Animals, Tame Impala, Sufjan Stevens, this or this. I think lofi is a specific type of music actually, and I'm just not into the softly sung, sounds like you'd play it over a slow mo video of a car driving up the PCH, a lot of people probably like listening to it high but I've tried that and it's even worse, kinda music vibes. Hahaha. Something is very wrong with me.
