huh. having now understood reaching my target audience of one i think i now get why certain artists have gone batshit, and its because no matter their audience size or how explicitly they state things, no one gets what theyre actually saying

#crazy=genius is the primary example that comes to mind #like. the immediate association there is that its bragging #and maybe to some degree it is‚ that doesnt discount the rest of what im going to say #but like. the order of words there is very important. its not 'it genius = crazy then im insane because im sososo smart'#its 'if crazy = genius then im albert einstein‚ because i am going fucking insane'#its not bragging‚ its bravado. there is a crucial difference between the two.#its a cry for help wrapped in enough arrogance to ensure plausible deniability #and we all just. brushed him off. me included #it's sebastian all over again #if no one takes what you say seriously then you can say your most serious thoughts and have no one blink an eye #and brush it off as yeah yeah emo boy we all had a bad time in highschool.#ajr too im legitimately tempted to see if they have a public email that i can write and send a full analysis to #theyre all just saying it. these people are all so lonely and surrounded by people who see them as a commodity #can you imagine being surrounded by thousands of people who know the words to your songs by heart and didn't understand a single one #sending out flare after flare saying 'this is not a bit i am crumbling to pieces and need help' and having articles written #about how its just music and doesnt mean anything and youre a terrible person #its just for the bit‚ its just to pull your heartstrings to make it hit harder‚ its just art. its doesnt mean anything. right?#nevermind that theres a reason they know which strings to pull. nevermind that none of those are mutually exclusive. nevermind how #directly they say that that is not the case in the song. it doesnt mean anything. it cant. because if it does and if theyre all telling the #truth about how fucked up they are then ding ding ding it seems yet again society is broken #and its easier to say it doesnt mean anything than to face the scale of the everything of it all #origibberish #yknow what come to think of it i think using specifically 'crazy' is also deliberate plausible deniability as just being an asshole too #like 'oh well if you were aaaaactually going through a mental health crisis then you would use more respectful language'#much to consider much to consider
