#Tall People Have No Feelings

Sitting To Know Your Collection March Roundup

Sitting To Know Your Collection: Week 10! (March 3rd - March 10)

Album: Tall People Have No Feelings by The Vanilla Milkshakes Play Count: 3-4 ish times Top 2 Tracks: - We Sound Shitty So Spin Will Like Us (Track 11) - Deez Boots (Track 3) Yay! We made it to 10 weeks!

Doesn’t the title give the same energy and Randy Newman’s “Short People Got No Reason To Live?” 😂

Back in 2019 I went and saw a Green Day cover band and these fine folks were opening for them. At that show I’m pretty sure I got a free copy of this week’s album and if it wasn’t free then I just paid for it like an upstanding human lol. Anyway this is a solid, cheap punk record and I had fun listening to it. The repetitive lines (inside of songs) that come with a lot of punk music were some of my favorite parts, especially because when I’m binging ish, I’m drawn to anything that I can latch onto. So, it doesn’t take too long for me to attach myself to lines like “I annoy myself with my misery. I annoy myself with my misery. I annoy myself with my misery….” lol.

If y’all want some sh*tty but good and easy punk to dabble in and have fun with, go check them out. I don’t think they’re on Instagram anymore, but there’s BandCamp and Spotify and wherever else you consume music.

PS: Just like no sealed tapes, I unsealed this one cause, no sealed CDs either lol.

Sitting To Know Your Collection: Week 11 (March 11 - March 17)

Album: Metro Station (2007) by Metro Station Play Count: 3-ish times Top 2 Tracks: - California (Track 9) - Seventeen Forever (Track 1) We visited 2007 for the second time during this year of albums and let’s just say I love 30 minute-ish albums. They’re just so digestible. Back in the day, like back in high school, I remember standing in Walmart and trying to decide whether to get this album or Taylor Swift and 17 years later you could see what kind of teen I was and thus part of the elder “emo” I grew up to be. The album came on and I immediately knew every word. I haven’t listened to this one in a while, but it came back like it was yesterday. There was only like one or two songs that needed to get to the chorus before I got it, but I still got it. We still got it. That being said the scene although it still gives good memories, gives me some pause as well lol.

Sitting To Know Your Collection: Week 12 (March 18 - March 24)

Album: As Cruel As School Children (2006) by Gym Class Heroes Play Count: 4 Top 2 Tracks: - 7 Weeks (Track 7) - Shoot Down The Stars (Track 2)

It’s fun coming back to this album when I do cause for the most part there still are some good vibes, however this time I caught somethings I hadn’t before and will say that not all vibes are good vibes. Maybe I just missed every time it came on previously, but the song about the affair with the teacher was not it bruh. And we all love Clothes Off, but we don’t have to take them off to have a good time. Now I’m not trying to trash the album or anything like that, I’m just realizing what I’ve been singing for many years now. Look up them lyrics y’all lol. Anyway it was still fun, just had to pause a little bit.

Sitting To Know Your Collection: Week 13 (March 24 - March 31)

EP: I Try Not To Think About The Past (2018) by Zach Frost Music Play Count: 4 Top Track: You Can’t Go Back (Track 2)

I usually avoid EPs with these listens cause they’re so short, however due to #NoSealedCDs and this one being special I made an exception.

A few years ago the very kind Zach Frost sent me a some merch and a few CDs after I talked about a band he used to be in that I really loved. I never opened the cd because I never found the right moment and just listened to him on Spotify. Anyway I finally cracked it open and gave it a few official physical listens.

My opinion is that this sounds like it could have been a Ska record. Maybe it’s because I’ve been listening to like one Ska Punk artist or the catchy lines in You Can’t Go Back. Anyway I had fun with this one and wish I would have gotten more than 4 listens in cause it was so digestible. (I honestly just kept forgetting to press play after it was over.)

What was your favorite from March or what would you check out?

Stay Tuned For April!

Incorrect, the fact that Biden has dropped out and a candidate with history of supporting medicare for all and being more receptive to a ceasefire in the I/P conflict has made me go from "I cannot morally support the Democratic nominee" to "I am voting for the Democratic nominee despite the fact she isn't perfect in every respect." I'm really happy this played out. The Dems for the most part abandoned the old Obama platform and it feels like its possible an actual progressive agenda could come to pass in my lifetime.

Kamala 2024!

If you weren't going to vote Democratic in this election before Biden dropped out you're a dorkass loser who does not care about any of the issues you're yammering about here and also a fundamentally bad person, and I hope you get run over by a bus.

But you got one thing right in all of this gibberish, Kamala 2024.

I gotta know: do you know if the Certified Creature is in The Untamed, or did it get edited out for More Serious Fantasy?

If you are referring to LWJ's Bunny hairpiece, that's just the whimsy of PD-MDZS.

As much as I adore stupidly tall Technoblade, there’s so much potential in him being short. All these tall tales of the man that causes everyone else in the land to tremble, and then in walks a guy who’s barely 5’0” and yet everyone in the room tenses. Particularly love the image of Quackity cowering back from a tiny ferocious pig man.

plus the comedic potential of Tommy being taller than him ALONE makes it worth considering. Tommy trying to hide behind Techno for protection except you can so easily snipe him with a bow regardless, or continually slamming his forehead on the doorways in Techno’s house. Since Techno never planned to see basically anyone again in retirement he fully did not make an house survivable for giants. But also every week Techno makes his doorways shorter by an inch just so Tommy never adjusts to ducking. It’s like two months before Tommy realizes. It’s also a massive problem when Ranboo starts hanging around the house, especially since they leave horn marks on the ceilings.

The long sleep loosens it's grip as your eyes flutter open. The warmth of sunlight kisses your skin, and a soft breeze combs through your hair, as if welcoming you back to a place you've always belonged.

You find yourself cushioned by the rustling grass around you, serving as a meal for horses in the distance. The chirping of birds and the trill of crickets create a nostalgic symphony from a time you can't quite remember.

You look up to the sky, eyes following the clouds to the outline of mountains that stretch before you. The view of New Hanover welcomes you.

The breath you didn't know you were holding is released, along with all the uncertainty it contained, you remember that you've been here before.

But this time, it feels like you're home.

Ein wunderliche und erschröckliche Hystori von einem großen Wüttrich genant Dracole wayda Der do so ganz unkristenliche marrter hat angelegt die mensche, als mit spissen als auch die leut zu Tod geslyffen

A wondrous and frightening story about a great berserk called Dracula the voivode who inflicted such unchristian tortures such as with stakes and also dragged people to death

[theredcuyo]

Actually, Jason Todd who is alive to the public again and decides that he's going to have the worst, most unhinged persona (with a limit, just so they don't think too much of it)ever so Bruce thinks it twice before dragging him to anything

He's a total mess of a celebrity, Brucie without the Playboy part and instead, he gets on calling out other rich assholes with sass and passive-aggresive talk, like 'Oh, Mrs. Sanders- Ah, right, Miss White, is it now? Sorry, it's hard to keep up with the fift divorce, i imagine you'll put some of the half you got this time to our charity instead of on more wine?' while also acting as a sweet daddy's little boy who can do no wrong and it's just 'trying to make some friends'

He still has the strong moral compass and the sweetheart part of the act, but he can't put that many himbo moments here and there (everyone knew he had good grades and shit, thanks to Bruce 'did you know my son is the smartest ever?' Wayne) but he does nerd literature moments (that aren't even a lie) to throw people who like to show off but don't know shit

So, a lot of people hate him and he loves it

He only slightly changes the act when interacting with children for the fundation and programs you bet your ass he got Tim and Bruce to make, instead of the call outs, he goes for lighthearted irony and talk like 'Oh, You didn't know? I heard that Deliah, yes Deliah Olson, is now going on a grape-candy solo week? Can you believe it? I thought she couldn't like without chocolate!' and ish like that

And what are the adults going to do about it? Call out the son of the richest man in Gotham? The one who to him seems completely innocent? The one, who you know, he lost once and now seems very protective of? Jumping out a window is a faster way to die

Bruce loves him, but he's starting to only take him to the fundation events so he's on his best behavior

I said this in a whole reblog, but just copy-pasting to a separate post because I think it'll give some reading comprehension and reblogs don't show up in the search feature.. again, I'm reiterating what I said in another post.

Go check out @demidokuriya 's post for this; OP's post made me put this all down in like. 20 minutes. Mind went vroom vroom cuz HEY THEY'RE ONTO SOMETHING.

(They also reblogged the post with some hint to some behind the scenes of what led to the ideas if you wanna check that out)

Look below at how, when Mineta told AFO to spare Tokoyami, AFO specifically went "..."

He remembers Jirou and thinks, The braying howls of the weak...

He was going to take Tokoyami's Quirk. He took Hawks'. But after Mineta pleaded with him, AFO just straight-up left and didn't take anyone else's Quirk.

AFO saw Yoichi in Mineta.

These scenes are near-identical to each other.

Mineta and Yoichi (at that time) are both much smaller than the normal person at their age

They're both hurt, yet dragged themselves up from the ground to throw something at AFO, to get his attention and make their voice

Both are considered weak, even if they have a Quirk (Mineta's Pop-Off and Yoichi's undeveloped Factor)

The fact that Yoichi got AFO's attention here by throwing a can at him, while Mineta got his attention by throwing a Pop-Off ball; and it stuck.

Mineta's call for his attention landed and actually stuck to AFO. This is unlike when Yoichi and his can bounced off, and AFO kicked him, not listening to him; AFO listened to Mineta and left Tokoyami alone, technically doing what Mineta wanted—to not hurt this person.

AFO just went on to hurt more people away from Mineta's [Yoichi's] eyes so the small weakling wouldn't see.

Yoichi and Mineta both cried to AFO to not hurt in his ways, when AFO was intent on stealing people's Quirks

AFO even stole Hawks' Quirk during this time.

He had time to steal Hawks' Quirk, and though he could've tossed him to the side, he let Hawks stand in his way.

He had the energy. Right after this event, he flew off and left the scene. But he didn't go for Tokoyami immediately.

And this let Mineta play his part, and remind AFO of Yoichi.

"A putrid, festering Quirk Factor."

That sounds like Yoichi, AFO.

".. such garbage."

Hey hey hey, what did Yoichi throw at him when they were kids?

A discarded can. Garbage.

This chapter (385) where AFO listens to Mineta is literally called [A Youthful Urge].

Mineta told AFO to take his Pop-Off (hurt him) instead. But last time, AFO hurt Yoichi by kicking him; this time, AFO not only listened to Mineta to not hurt Tokoyami, but didn't touch Mineta at all.

Even though this time, Mineta [Yoichi] offered to take that place of suffering.

Yoichi didn't do that back then. AFO just turned on little Yoichi anyway.

Yoichi through his whole existence is literally [the braying howls of the weak]. AFO acknowledges he's weak and idealistic, yet he still loves him.

Side note about this panel, I think it's interesting that in this vision, this was the first time we saw Yoichi's eyes: when he was being defiant, despite being pushed down by someone much stronger than him.

Really characteristic of him, honestly. Yoichi's soft-spoken and frail, but it's always reiterated that Yoichi had a powerful will against his stronger big brother.

Mineta at this moment reminded him too much of Yoichi, because the two scenes are near-identical to each other. Parallels, really.

Reiterating something from OP's post that I reblogged this from;

"The reminder of his brother made him uncomfortable, so he hurried away."

AFO didn't want to hurt Yoichi again.

Fuck it we ball *posts a sketch*

Unsure if I will ever line this so if not. Here. Middle earth’s very own mother of dragons and his one billion toddler children who want shiny things

Had this joke in my head for way too long

[slyandthefamilybook]

asking people their pronouns is the bare minimum of trans acceptance and it's something we've had to drag cis people kicking and screaming into doing. where the fuck do you get off throwing all that progress out the window because you like it when people are mean to you actually

[flamingoinkart]

dunno if i've posted about this before, but i have a theory that most people who get into rhythm heaven start off by having Tall Tappers as their blorbo/main character fixation before they move on to other characters. it's a pattern i've seen a lot

[mjrtaurus]

Shandian!Dragon, only a child, always being told bedtime stories from his mother about an island that rose into the sky, great serpent gods, a warrior and an admiral who became as brothers, an ancient city in the skull's right eye, and a golden bell that had gone silent for centuries.

Shandian!Dragon, a teenager, being laughed at when he corrected people who called him Birkan or Skypiean because Shandians weren't real and he was expected to feel ashamed for believing something so childish.

Shandian!Dragon, a grown man and a father, hearing that very bell ringing after four hundred years, knowing it was his son who made it possible.
