Everything I Love Is Going to Die :: The Wombats :: Fix Yourself Not the World (2022)

Augh Ford... the Icarus energy... the immense humbling he gets at the end of the series.... I love this high intelligence low wisdom buffoon. I hope he's happy on the boat he deserves it

Completely random but have you ever heard of The Wombats? I’m mentioning this only bc omfg they’re so drarry-coded it drives me crazy 😭😭 I need to share this with the world,,,

Like Walking Disasters? Lemon to a Knife Fight? Turn? Our Perfect Disease? BE YOUR SHADOW?!?! BE YOUR SHADOW IS LIKE *THE* DRARRY SONG FOR ME🗣️🗣️🗣️

“Kiss me with your fist, it's all right Wrap your hands around my throat, I won't mind I'm permanent now, I won't go I just wanna be your shadow”

I’m not crazy for thinking that right??? RIGHT?!?!

Honorable mentions: 1996(gives Horcrux hunting angst vibes) and Give Me a Try(pining, essentially)

😋

I'm not gonna lie to you, I read this ask at 5am, and my sleep deprived brain read "Wombats" as "Wombles." I was naturally very confused.

Ah, yes. Very drarry-coded.

BUT I TOTALLY SEE YOUR POINT WITH THE SONGS!!!🤩💖

Post-punk revival is a type of indie rock that emulates the sound of post-punk bands of the late 1970s and new wave bands of the early 1980s and has been stylistically tied to 1990s music movements such as shoegaze, Britpop, garage revival and post-hardcore. -Wikipedia

Some of the most iconic albums (in my opinion, and at least visually) of my fave genre! I might post the CD frame separately. It's a little big for my liking, but I don't love the way these look when I scale them down any more than this lol

F2U with or without credit, just don't claim as your own. tips appreciated <3 (ko-fi link)

totally got tagged to do this (no, I didn't)

Shuffle your On Repeat playlist and list the first twelve songs in a poll, then have your followers choose their favourite.

I was expecting this to be a lot more obscure, seems we've just had movie and show soundtracks on loop lol

Doodles, studies, and tests (oh my)

These look incredibly shit but they're so fun and colorful to look at so I'm actually pretty pleased with this mess!

Made my first fan edit in over a decade (in my day they were called fanvids). Apparently you can't use copyrighted music longer than a minute on tiktok (it was easier to get round copyright in my day also) so this one is just for you tumblr. Also let's ignore the clips with logos in because I'm not getting clean versions to re-edit it, it's 8am and I haven't been to sleep (thanks ADHD hyperfocus stopping me from literally noticing the sun coming up!)

Edit: Had some sleep so now time to write a ridiculous number of words about a 3 minute edit! This was a lot of fun to make, I forgot how fun video editing is and capcut is a dream compared to windows movies maker and sony vegas (which was what all the cool kids were using for some reason in the mid 2000s but I never got the hang of it).

It also reminded me how fun some of the dance numbers are. Like I love Dancing in the Moonlight and Twistin' the Night Away. I know for the latter they originally had a choreographed routine but it was scrapped and and they were told improvise and have fun. It's something that definitely comes across in the final scene and it makes it feel more authentically like three siblings messing around.

Also in editing the video scenes I noticed stuff I wouldn't have otherwise. Emmy breaks multiple times because she's having so much fun (it's left in because it makes sense for her to laugh in the moment but Emmy's laugh is very different to Allison's).

The weird dance Diego does with the sword during Another One Bites the Dust, and the fact Lila has to fully step back at one point to not get hit in the face! I always thought Lila was just pulling Five in by the hand for a hug in the same scene but you can see them dancing together in the background throughout. I knew they danced together at the wedding but Five was blackout drunk at that point so it's fun to see him dancing with her at a time when he's...well not sober, but definitely less drunk.

Also as an aside, in the first draft of the script for S1E1 it's shown explicitly that Five is uncomfortable with touch after years in the apocalypse. Though the scene in question didn't make it into later drafts, it still feels implied to me throughout season 1 and it makes me feel happy to see how far he's come, seeming genuinely comfortable with Lila's affection. Also if anyone is interested in the idea of him struggling with touch @soshadysoquiet has a great fic exploring this (though rather than my view that he's become accustomed to, and comfortable with touch it posits that he's dealing with so much due to the apocalypse he doesn't recognise touch as the cause of his distress).

I also think there's a sort of theme happening in the partner dances during Footloose, rather than the characters being paired randomly but that will take long enough to explain it needs it's own post, even if this one wasn't already obscenely long.

[aletterinthenameofsanity]

Amy Pond playlist!

I did it. I made the Amy Pond playlist. It's a contradictory mix of songs about Amy as a child, Amy as a goddess, Amy as the girl who waited, Amy as the woman who brought the doctor back from the dead, Amy as asexual, Amy as a woman who loves great enough to break the laws of the universe, Amy as a stagnant wife, Amy as someone who takes her destiny into her own hands, Amy as Orpheus and Cassandra and Sleeping Beauty and Persephone and most of all, Amelia Pond.
