#This is why I love her music so much

Even if you think all Taylor Swift writes about is love and breakups which isn't true, have you ever truly paid attention to the lyrics?
As a literature enthusiast, her representation of love is one of the most beautiful I've ever come across in my years of obsessive reading and consuming similar media.
(Funny how I was just thinking of this yesterday and she announced a new album today. I think I manifested too hard besties)
#and I'm not even touching her music production here#This is why I love her music so much#And I cannot wait for the new album!#the tortured poets department#taylor swift#This is also why I'll never expect Taylor slander#especially not over her music#question her all you want about speaking up for Palestine because I wish she'd do it too for the impact it would have#but not her music#if you don't get it it's your own inadequate understanding and appreciation of literature#auroras thoughts#music#swifties#taylornation#quotes#lyrics#love

PJSK HAS A WEIRDLY LOW NUMBER OF ACTUALLY WINTERY SETS... like 3. kind of.#i have some thumbnail sketches but im kind of stumped on composition for them. my idea was a nene focus set#(IF HER NEXT FOCUS ISNT PHANTOM OF THE OPERA THEMED INWILL DIE. BADLY. THEYRE GOING TO AN OPER AHOUSE. PLEADBR)#originally my idea was for nene to be biting a medal i was very sold on it bc i love nenes competitive side#however her outfit is so nice i want it to also be part of the art .. its heavily inspired by that one iconic eunsoo lim dress#from her somewhere in time program iirc. im really undatisfied with emus dress tbh my origimal idea was to give it a phoenix look#but a lot of the firebird/phoenix skating programs have very sleek dresses and i want emus to be fluffy. the balance is hard ..#and since i want her program song to be once upon a dream from sleeping beauty i swerved to make it look a bit like auroras ? but again#it definitely feels like the weakest of everybodys ... maybe i just love her too much and want her to look the best. sorry wxs.#tsukasas outfit is supposed to look like a shooting star. easy. program music moonlight sonata 3rd movement like from dazzling light. easy.#actually i like takahashi daisukes moonlight sonata program its a medley of the 1st and 3rd movement.. i think the calm at the beginning#is best. maybe smth like that.. for his card inhad him doing a haircutter spin but again. the outfits good i want the outfit visible. damn.#ruis the one im very set on even now. girl why are you so phantom of the opera.#it has a lot of beautiful programs to reference but the outfit i didnt really have any solid reference i kind of just balled#my main idea was to make it look a bit like both christine and the phantom.... gender Fluid.#my yapfest... i should be SEWING!!!!!!!!#despite my yapping im not that well versed in figure skating i cant really distinguish jumps i just like it . and medalist#i only do normal skating. bc i played hockey for like 7 years LOLLLL inlove skating though Heart.

This is a certified Penelope loving blog. I love her. So much. If you don’t like her… good luck. Anyways, Penelope ❤️!
#To those of you bound to say Odysseus is gonna try and get me#No he is not#Because I am respectful#I love her from a distance#I am not trying to replace him#I am not hurting his son#And most of all#why would the number one Penelope lover not get how everyone else loves her?#Penelope#epic the musical#the odyssey#love her#so much

I've been seeing some shit on how certain folks apparently think it's like, surprising that Penelope just accepted Odysseus and all the stuff he's done without question and/or disappointment in Would You Fall in Love With Me Again when like... Not only against Odyssey!Penelope but ALSO Epic's. We may have only gotten 2 songs it's still a concept album. THERE'S STILL TIME! of the real Penelope in Epic but like, even then we can see that she's equally as wild
#“How are you so normal about knowing your husband committed infantcide-” because she's NOT Normal?? neither of them are??#odypen are freak4freak#like if it weren't for the laws of Xenia she would've done something#like even in the Odyssey girly is basically literally praying to the gods for Antinous to choke on chicken bone and gets sad when it doesn'#happen. the only reason why she didn't run up and kiss her blood soaked husband is that she couldn't tell exactly if that was him for sure#because he was so bloody. she literally couldn't really see his face. too well and was just going on vibes and she needed confirmation#shout out to folks who portray odypen as the hazards to society that they are :3 I love you#penelope#odysseus x penelope#penelope of ithaca#epic penelope#epic the musical#I'll never shut up about her. I LVOE her so much#Mad rambles#shot by odysseus#odypen#essay#kind of

deeply refreshing to see someone critical of Swift who also like, genuinely likes her. Like i'm neutral to positive on her, but the online discourse has been absolutely rancid. flipping between "Taylor Swift has never done anything wrong ever and she's a fucking genius" and "Taylor Swift is the worst lyricist of all time and also a bad person" is exhausting, so thank you for like. nuance or something lmao
not to make it serious for a sec but i genuinely think that being able to like things that are bad is really important. like I think that it's an important skill to be able to look at something and see what you personally enjoy about it and then take a step back and acknowledge that objectively it's flawed. and to also be able to acknowledge that liking something isn't necessarily an identity or a moral stance. and i think that fandom space in general could really benefit from more people taking the time to learn how to do that. it's okay to like things that are bad
#people ask me sometimes why ill occasionally talk about something i like and then go 'but it's bad' and the answer is usually because it is#i love teen wolf. i love genshin impact. i love detective conan. and i fucking LOVE taylor swift. that doesnt mean theyre good#it just means i like them. and recognizing their flaws actually helps me better identify what i like about them!#it's like. in my mind bad > good is the x axis and i like it > i dont like it is the y axis yk. they're not mutually exclusive#tldr it's not that serious. we can all relax a little#irt taylor swift i do also think she has done some real harm to her fans in enabling them to deflect all criticism of her as misogyny#and i don't think it's fully the fault of these people who are parroting that response bc so much of her marketing has deliberately#reinforced this idea that to be a swiftie is to be a part of a sisterhood and that any attack on taylor is an attack on all of those women#who are in that in-group. when that's obviously not the case. but she's marketed herself as. for lack of a better term. 'girl music'#to the point where it makes her fans feel as though any criticism of the music or the woman responsible for it is an attack on their#personal experience of womanhood/girlhood/sisterhood/etc. and that's how you get all of thess bad-faith accusations of misogyny#i don't necessarily think this was her deliberate goal with her marketing tho because like. on first glance such a strong sense of communit#among fans sounds like a great thing. the friendship bracelets i got at the eras tour movie are really genuinely special to me.#but it does present a problem when your fans are unable to separate how they feel about the community and experience your music has fostere#from how they feel about you as a person. especially when you are a billionaire who absolutely CANNOT be above criticism in this economy#anyway. tldr i love taylor's music and i don't think swiftie hivemind is as deliberately malicious as it may seem#but it's obviously necessary to be able to take a step back and look objectively at what you're participating in.#anyway stream ttpd or don't idc <3#taylor swift

HELLO EPIC THE MUSICAL FANDOM!!! TAKE MY DESIGN OF THE BESTEST, MOST GIRLBOSS GOD EVER!!!
♡ ~ Aphrodite ~ ♡
SHES MY FAVORITE GOD, HER PART IN GOD GAMES WAS ABSOLUTELY FIRE AND I LOVE HER SM!!!!!
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Some notes :
My biggest inspiration was @bambiilooza design for her, although I kept her arms lol
I gave her vitiligo because I just thought it was cool amd pretty (I think extreme skin patterns and such are extremely fascinating and attractive, and she's kinda supposed to be a conglomerate of all the things I think are appealing --- it's a headcanon power of hers = shape-shifting, so she can look like whatever the person looking at her thinks is attractive) (it's also what Ares thinks is attractive, so she stays in this form most often) (AND, she's just my favorite and I can draw her however I want tehehehe ♡♡♡)
She has a swam tattoo on her back (an idea I wanna try and keep: all gods have their respective animal(s) as tattoos in their backs). I was just too lazy and unmotivated to make a better reference sheet smh
<- The solid colored eyes are something I wanna (try) and give all the gods for consistency, like the tattoos idea
I originally wasn't gonna give her body hair cuz she was already chubby and had cellulite/stretch marks, so I was kinda scared ppl would think I was being "too woke," but I decided to go ahead with it cuz I just think body hair is pretty ♡
I'm not entirely happy with the design, but Idk if I'll change it (I'm in a "I hate everything I've ever made" phase rn 🤦♀️😔
This took several days, fuck lack of motivation 😔😓
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
EPIC THE MUSICAL IS AMAZING AND I'M GOING INSANE BECAUSE THE FINAL SAGA IS COMING SO SOON, I'M NOT READY JORGE PLEASE 😭😭😭💔💔💔
#epic the musical#epic the musical fanart#epic the musical au#calamaroo's au#epic aphrodite#aphrodite#i love her so much idk why shes my fav she just is <3

The average experience between bsfs who are Epic Fans with mythology fixations:
#neither of us have read the Odyssey tho#i only knew this because i looked up the entired of the trojan war#and read detailed summaries because Jorge Rivera-Herrans takes up my headspace why too much#now ill drop a bit of cannon Odyssey info in all our Epic convos simply to destroy her#my bsf#love her#so much#epic the musical#the odyssey#epic odysseus

I have a confession. I do not care for the soc boys. I'm sure they have very interesting character traits and lore the actors and fandom have come up with and that is so fun and great and I know none of it and I am perfectly content with that. Shout out to all my mutuals who love the soc boys I hope you are having fun with your Ken dolls but I will not be joining you. keep slaying.
#not saying i hate them i just cant get my brain to like them the same way i do all the greasers and the soc girls#excluding bev for some reason melody ily bev ily but i dont latch onto her the same way i do cherry and marcia 😔😔😔😔#shout out to all my soc boy mutuals i hope you are having so much fun#the closest i will ever get to caring for the soc boys is randy#man was an asshole tried to kill a kid saw his best friend die went fuck all of this dumped his girlfriend left town and became a hippie#shit start great ending good job randy 👍#this is also why i havent gotten into parry#i love the gays i promise but i did not latch onto paul the way the rest of the fandom did 😔😔#i totally get it i see where yallre coming from i understand#its my ship-in-law ill support parry truthers 4ever#but im a dar-bit truther for life#yes i am also a mar-bit truther#and an aroace darry truther#i win no matter what#but anyways#i am not part of the community i am an ally ✊️✊️✊️#its also fun cuz since i know jack shit i never get annoyed at mischaracterization because i dont know what the correct characterization is#i can see anything about them and go 'yeah sure'#and it could be so out of character#and ill never know#i stay winning#anyways love yall 🫶#although i do think a reason i havent latched onto bev is because i never see anyone talking about her#if you love bev please tell me about her i want to know everything#the outsiders#the outsiders musical#two-bit talks

saw my queen yesterday ❤️ lady in red <3
#erika vikman#it's so nice that my last gig of the year was erika PHEW#going to non kä gigs is always such a breath of fresh air for how uncomplicated it is#i showed up 20 mins before doors and BOOM. front row babey!#though the thingy before the barricade was SO UNCOMFORTABLE to sit on it had these little raised spots#& after awhile it felt like i was sitting on spikes 😭😂#so the two hour wait for the gig to start wasn't all that pleasant even if it didn't feel like much after all the suffering of kä gigs lmao#LOL ANYWAY why am i complaining#i mean nobody is reading these tags anyway it's fine#hiiii if you are though 👋#anyways yes my queen erika was GREAT!!! she's such an amazing performer#the dangly bits of her outfits kept falling off it was kind of funny seeing them all over the stage and her kicking them off awh#and hmm she had to cancel some gigs before bc of lingering problems with her voice after an illness and you could kind of tell in parts#that her voice isn't back to 100% yet 😭💔#mind you not to say she sounded bad not at ALL i just hope she fully gets better <3#hopefully i'll get to see her again many a time in 2025 🥰#her music is such a vibe it's so lovely to jam to it live

I hate that I get so attached to new swings and then they leave. This is my first experience with Broadway and did not know it would be so painful.
#this is why I hate vacation swings#I love them all so much but then they just get ripped away#I know they will go on to do beautiful things but I’m not ready to see them go yet#I feel like jpc just got here and today is is last show#february please get here faster so we can have jpc content#and maggie is leaving the same day as are rj#im so excited to see hailey take on her roles and to see where maggie goes but she will be so missed#milena has done so much for this show. she is so good at what she does. she’s gonna go far#the outsiders musical#the outsiders broadway#john patrick collins#maggie kuntz#milena comeau#kevin csolak#anna bermudez#wonza johnson#sean jones#rj higton#andre malcolm

every time I hear someone say "oh you have to listen to Dear Evan Hansen it has such good mental health representation" I cry in Next to Normal
#next to normal#and yes this is based on a true story#generally I dont try to juck anyones jum so I of course didn't tell that person what I was thinking at that moment#and if someone found Dear Evan Hansen a useful text in terms of their own mental health journey who am I to discredit that#but this is the internet and I am back on the ntn train#in a way it is my saf autumn musical#and yes I am a survior of the 2017 Tony Awards why were you asking?#no but seriously#it is so interesting how many narrative devices Dear Evan Hansen took from Next to Normal#but turned them into a less complete piece#like Gabe in ntn is a representation of unadressed grief and trauma and the family has to accept that he will never be really gone#and connor is just...idk not fully thought out?#idk I'm rambling#but also#how the love story between Henry and Natalie means something#Natalie sees her parent's relationship and desperately doesn't want that for herself and Henry at the same time also stand for#a piece of normalcy that seems attainable#you don't sit there and think hu why is there this completely separate love story thrown in there?#it mirrors the problems#and dear evan hansen#do I even have to say it#I thnk the thing I resent it most for is that it has a love story#naja#I'm of listening to net to normal some more#sorry I someone who really likes deh stumbles accross this#I feel like espechially musicals can be something that can be so personal#and I don't actually want to contribute to more stuff like#ew why do you like this when theres xyz that is so much better or morally purer or whatever#I guess what I do want to say is: if I had a nickle for everytime they made a musical about mental health where theres a ghost on stage and#the sister of the dead kid falls in love with a funny guy while her family is falling apart

trans headcanons of the winchesters are always extremely fun to play around with and i can see most of them. but one that always rings slightly false to me, despite a love for it due to self-identification and the fact it’s definitely interesting, is transmasculine dean. simply because if you’re going according to canon this would require him to have transitioned at some point prior to johns death, probably much prior, probably as a youngish kid. and i genuinely do not think that ever could’ve happened. he values johns approval too much and is too scared of demanding too much of him.
like even aside from whether john is Actually transphobic (i doubt he’s like Cartoonishly transphobic he probably would be annoyed by it slash not care much, interpret ‘not caring’ however you want) just the whole Thing of coming out where you’re like. “Hey dad im actually a human person who has an internal sense of self and such that doesn’t happen to be You 2.0 and am not the gender you thought i was and i feel emotions to such an extent that i actually like need to transition”…….
no fucking way dean would ever be able to do that to john while he’s still alive. please. teenage transmasculine dean would be like Well yeah sure i want to be a guy but that’s not an option for me whatsofuckingever. and crucially he’d be like that even if he knew entirely about trans people. now this is why transfemme dean works so well. because you just know it would take her at least thirty years to even consider it for a singular second.
on the other hand transmasc sam works so well because you can picture teenage transmasculine sam realising he’s a boy and promptly making it part of the whole entirely justified and very cool and fun teen angst rebellion FUCK YOU DAD thing. he could let spite carry him to the point of coming out. dean? he is burying that shit deep.
#Idk there’s still stuff to play with i find really interesting#at the end of the day it’s like. canonly dean buries everything about himself and just takes on the shape of his dad dads music dads car#dads jacket dads anger etc-#dean is expected to be a certain way. and he becomes very good at that certain way#he’s playing the role his father decided for him long after his fathers dead#i think a theoretically transmasc dean while still just as determined to prove himself and like. into hunting and probably vaguely the#machismo of it all too like canon dean. i think he would still very much as a teenager play into the whole eldest daughter mary 2.0 (more#than in canon he’s already mary 2.0 but he’s also meant to be john 2.0)#like transmasc dean would bury it and keep performing badass Tough Chick femininity#obviously after transitioning he’d be just like canon dean but he’d have to get to the point of transitioning first Which would take foreve#dean conforms to the role john expects he does what he thinks is needed of him#hence why it’s so hard to imagine a younger him transitioning. transition is a deviation from that tightly plotted role#Hence why in canon maybe transitioning would save her because it would inherently mean she’s gotten over some shit!#ANYWAY. gender in spn is so interesting#dean winchester#trans dean winchester#I still love transmasc headcanons though ofc#spn#oliver talks

I believe that The Oh Hellos could have written Romeo and Juliet. But Shakespeare couldn’t not have written the four winds albums.
#god i love them so much#the oh hellos#folk music#hot take#i am right#I don’t accept criticism#because i am right#do you know the story behind why they made the four winds?#do you understand all the symbolism within?#do you hear what they are saying?#they are saying four different things at the same time with the same words#you just have to look at the big picture of all four albums#or narrow in line by line#they speak of god and growth and death#they speak of things that have been around for all of human civilization#their stories cover centuries#bridge divides that have separated people longer than the Atlantic#DO YOU HEAR WHAT THEY ARE SAYING???#‘a rose by any other name’ BUT CAN I LOVE A GOD THAT LOVES SUCH HATE??!#WHAT ARE THESE WORDS THAT DIVIDE US?#there once was a mother who lived by a pharaoh AND WHAT MAKES HER LESS THAN ME#AND I DONT WANT TO QUIT ON GOD AND THIS LIFE AND ON LOVE#I DONT WANT TO QUIT ON MYSELF AND WE ARE ALL JUST CHILDREN IN THE SUN#anywho#guess my favorite band
