#and then they have to ruin it by putting a clip of him singing some random wordss

[likesomanywrecksdo]

ALRIGHT LET'S FUCKING TALK ABOUT THIS EPISODE

what i think happens

Blitzø and Millie get recruited for a job in the human world, investigating paranormal activities and its pays a shit ton of money. They arrive at the venue (which is a undercover D.H.O.R.K facility probably a hotel) and meet an off-putting receptionist. Now there are theories that this is Leviathan but i personally feel it is a right-hand man or devout believer in Leviathan's rule over the Envy ring. I feel that this receptionist is a hellborn demon, undercover as a D.H.O.R.K employe (a position that allows him to remain covert and not ever be suspected).

So the receptionist lets them do their thing slowly luring them with short hallucinations (mostly auditory) of their deepest fears (eg: Millie's guilt over not having time for her family or Blitzø's seeing Fizzarolli in the hospital). These small moments set the tone for when Blitzø and Millie get seperated. Millie get lured away with the voice of Moxxie in trouble and Blitzø with Stolas' voice (hallucinated Stolas is likely angry at him). The receptionist exposes Blitzø with the chemical that causes the acid trip (which he knows is efficient because of Agent 1&2). The receptionists attempts to pick off Millie by shapeshifting into Blitzø and get her to hurt her friends and people she loves.

Blitzø

Stolas' voice lures him in and away from Millie and suddenly he's in his van or car or wtvr outside Stolas' house and the scenes of him being angry at him and sarcastic from the trailer ensue. The reason I think this is because the clip of Stolas smiling sarcastically (above) is JUST before the full montage of everyone he's hurt in the past, so I think this whole "stolas is pissed" (makes sense since the last ep literally had Stolas singing on a stage that had 'Blitzø Sucks' on it) plays out until he says the infamous, soul-ruining line; "do you feel any remorse for what you do" . Let me explain my reasoning for this segment a bit. As of the event of the music video 'Look My Way', Stolas understand why Blitzø is closed off and he has these (literal) walls around him that prevent him from opening up ("the walls you conjured up to live, is this what you feel? scorned by a realm that cannot comprehend, what you are.")

So saying this NOT EVEN ON THE NIGHT OF THE FULL MOON where emotions are high and you can get caught in the heat of the moment (which would make more sense) would make ZERO character sense for Stolas. It's not that I don't want to see Stolas snap it's just the line honestly just seems like a manifestation of Blitzø's self hatred and not an actual line Stolas would say.

So after the Stolas scene, Blitzø is at the circus fire, then he's at the hospital, then Ozzie's while Verosika is singing. Everything is happening so fast he can't keep up. Then, it all stops at the sight of one person. His mom. Blitzø is his teenage self again, the braces and everything, crying in his mom's arms and her telling him everything will be alright and that he's not a bad person. Just as he is starting to snap out of his acid trip. The receptionist pulls him back in with seemingly real footage of her getting really badly hurt by some version of Blitzø. He's spiralling again, this time with Millie and Moxxie in his hallucinations but not for very long as once Blitzø sees Millie come to break him out, he calms down enough to snap out of it but his emotions are still running high which leads to a real-life breakdown in front of Millie (below).

and that's our acid trip guys. sorry if it's badly written, just needed to get it out of my system.

THIS ENTIRE POST HAS MADE ME REALISE HOW HARD IT TO SPELL HALLUCINATION UGH

S10:W14

Listen, This is my crazy time. I always fall off the radar a little bit when I get hit with the family Christmas tsunami of joy. I have dinners, parades, light tours, train rides, pj pictures, tree decorating, cocktail parties, and a few December birthdays sprinkled in there as well. I’m bursting with fucking holiday jolliness. So, please don’t be alarmed when I didn’t rush home to work on Maier’s 5th BDOTW.  It’s quite a feat, and it will end up winning him a hundred bucks, but the dude was talking shit about our matchup this week, saying shit like “I finally slayed all you sluts.” man, fuck that guy, he’s going to get what is coming to him. He has the curse of the #1 seed, and his fall will be great. Remember, the empty drum bangs the loudest.  But this week’s write up is not about him… it’s about the other him, you know who I’m talking about. Do you think he realizes that he’s left 90 free dollars on the table? 90 bucks for just reading high quality LOG write ups. Do you think I received a stinky pinky, new england clam chowder or a big bubba log thigh? I didn’t. And now this mother fucker who started a guy who was almost dead for three straight weeks is sitting in a prime position to sneak into the playoffs.  Now I know I am the asshole here. It’s not like we all have jobs and families and friends and cars and shit going on. This guy is working at a restaurant that, according to their own website, is open to the public 16 hours a week! That’s like 2 and half hours a day.  I compared that to one of my former employers, Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, and they are open 12 hours a day for a whopping 84 hours a week. So I get it, he’s swamped! Maybe he is reading these things, maybe he’s waiting for the pot to get juicier? I guess this will settle it once and for all. If Matthew John Peterson can take his dick out of his hand and text me the password “dongle drip” he will automatically earn 100 bucks to his venmo account. 

Kick back with a microdose boys, a heavy microdose.

LOG CHANGES FOR 2025 

We are going back to our roots for draft day. We are going old school. Clip boards, paper and pens at the draft. No more phones or tablets to assist in the draft. Now I know the value in these modern gadgets. But I don’t want to see guys annoyed or upset that their gadget might get ruined by a pool dunk or a champagne squirt. I don’t want to see “Roman” avoiding the sticker board because he is catching up or having trouble with his app.  We put them away, we do paper and pen, we try to pay attention, it’s a shit show, if we find a violation, we will penalize accordingly, loss of keeper, loss of FAB or something. Clipboard, trunks and a positive attitude is all you need to bring to draft day moving forward! 

Loser of the league will sing the national anthem to kick off the following draft. (after the maier/hames bet is final)

The LOG is moving to the SLEEPER app in 2025

Draft weekend is now 2 weekends before Labor Day. Not the weekend before labor day, but the one before that. 

The throbber and stinky dick will be retired. There will be some other rule tweaks that affect scoring and those will be retired

The LOG championship belt will also be retired after year 10. LOG 2.0 will have a new belt and the old will be present for photos at draft weekends (not for losers).

[jesuschristsouperstar]

so one of my favoritest things about musical theatre is how sometimes someone will play a role MANY times and each time that character is portrayed differently because of different directors AS WELL AS that actor growing to understand the character more

that being said, barry dennen played pilate like THREE TIMES! as any of you would guess from my pfp, i LOVE that guy! so! for funsies! im going to analyze (ramble about) his second pilate portrayal, which was in the 1971 broadway musical! im mostly going to break down his character in trial before pilate because pilate’s dream doesn’t offer anything much different from the 1973 movie version… trial before pilate however…

in case youre wondering how differently he plays the same character… this photo should be a good summary for what this analysis will contain… (hint: he is so angry)

here is the song so u may listen along while i break it down:

okay! so! first off, yeah he is literally so much angrier. and i mean as soon as the questions begin he is already shouting!

he is throwing everything out fast! he is pissed! babygirl drink some water! and also, he has a lot of silly sounding voice cracky moments? not voice crack but like sudden and unnecessary shifts in pitch that make me take him less seriously (ex. when he goes like “respect for caesAAA” bro it just sounds goofy what are u trying to do)

then he goes from this HIGH HIGH point of emotions to very low low soft emotions for “talk to me jesus christ” and its like. idk im just thinking bro where is this coming from?!! ur all angry and then u turn around like “jesus literally say smth jesus pls :3” like idk i think its a bad transition.

AND THEN WE GET! im going to put this clip here for those not listening along

this segment. i can literally hear him frothing at the mouth WHO GAVE MY BOY RABIES?!!! WHY IS HE SO FERAL?!!!!

i just. its almost like hes looking for a crime because he actively wants to kill jesus and just needs a reason to pull the trigger. which is like. so not true about his character??? he also sounds like hes insulting jesus here, mocking him. like bros, literally everyone else is already mocking and insulting jesus in this moment. alternatively, if this moment is played more like pilate showing pity on him it provides good contrast! it makes everything more complex and Layered!

i dont have much to say about the flogging except i think girlypop is doing a bit Much(tm) but its acceptable (anythings better than the concept albums robotic counting…. eugh)

OKAY! so when he starts singing the “where are you from jesus” segment, i think this starts out so well! perfect sense of how pilate is just desperate for jesus to speak, to say anything to defend himself. bro also lowkey sounds like hes about to start weeping?? get this man some tissues!

AND THEN he ruins it in the way he emphasizes “dead soon.” YOU WERE DOING SO GOOD! what now?! are you threatening him for answers? and then he goes back to that previous tone like that was nothing! HUH? AND THEN! by the end of “i dont believe you understand” hes just kinda suddenly shifted back into that anger we are so familiar with. dude get a nap or something. chill out my guy good lordt

and the way hes like “youre a foOOL jesus christ” is just such a weird delivery (like that caesar thing from earlier, odd changes in pitch) and it just! i cant take him as seriously! i do like his “how can i help you?” right after, though, it just sounds deliciously horrified and like desperate and sick. acceptable!

and then the climax of the song! the part where he SHOULD show some kind of anger and SHOULD outright yell! “DOOOONT LET ME STOP YOUR GREAT SELF DESTRUCTION!” it just doesnt stand out as much when you have set the precedent of “oh well hes just kinda. feral and angry like that for the entire time” NO! GIVE ME CONTRAST OR GIVE ME DEATH! and even in this final part, hes still just too angry! theres not much else to it! hes yelling the words but hes not comprehending them!

i think when it comes to pilate as a character, it is very easy to lean into “angry, intimidating, angry, intimidating” and that’s just kinda… no! yes, he needs to have presence and be at least a little intimidating but not because hes yelling at you all the time! hes also terrified, full of guilt, and he has sympathy for jesus! he doesnt want to kill him, but he eventually realizes that he has no choice in the matter and THAT is what leads to him snapping and finally yelling at the end! because everything is fixed and YOU CANT CHANGE IT! AND HE CANT!

and yeah! thats my thoughts and breakdown about this specific performance! lmao! i think a lot of things about pilate, also they shouldve hired me to direct the 1971 bway production… i woulda given good notes… and also barry dennen was still developing his interpretation of the character and it IS better than the concept album (and concept album pilate has like… 0 presence… he sounds like a little nerd dork… i COULD break down that performance but its not asssssss juicy.)

BONUS if you got to down here, this is another picture of jesus choking out pilate, which means this was literally in the shows blocking AHAJSJDJF

if you get this, answer with your top 5 music artists and send it to the last 7 people in your notifications Rose💜

This ask was more difficult then I suppose it's meant to be, because I mainly listen to songs, not artists. A lot of the time, I find one or two songs from the same artist that I really like, and then I have no idea what else they've done, so answering this required some thinking. Thank you @my-rose-tinted-glasses for making me sit down and actually think about what artists I like, and not just what songs I happen to vibe with at the moment!

Spoiler: it's a lot of Korean music, and what makes me come back to an artist is most often their voice.

Isaac Hong I found him through the OST for Strangers From Hell (along with The Rose, The Vane and Yaori) and then rediscovered him when I watched the reality show Super Band. I love his voice and I love the way many of his songs swell and sweep me along. He's done a few more OSTs lately, so if you've watched a lot of kdramas, chances are you've heard his music somewhere.

Give Childhood Memories 내 기억 속의 소년, Close Your Eyes and Ruin a listen!

LeeHi This woman has an absolutely amazing voice and can do widly different songs. She's got a lot of great songs of her own and has done a whole lot of fantastic collabs with various artists as well.

1, 2, 3, 4, FXXK WIT US and Breathe are some of my favourites, but be warmed: Breathe never fails to make me tear up.

Iniko What a voice!!! (Have you noticed a theme yet?) Their voice is otherwordly and all it took was a few seconds of a short clip for me to get goosbumps and be absolutely blown away. Their acapella videos are a treat. Their music is different and powerful and I love it.

Luna, The King's Affirmation and Jericho are definitely recommended!

Woosung and The Rose As mentioned, I first found the indie rock band The Rose through the OST for Strangers from Hell, and then some time later I found the singer Woosung and fell in love with his voice - and then it took me an embarrassing amount of time to realise that Woosung is the singer for The Rose, and his solo songs are what he did to stay active while the rest of the boys did their military service. (Yes, this is the level of research/knowledge I usually have about artists. Virtually none, that is.)

Sorry, Strangers and Wonder are some of my favourite The Rose songs, while Phase Me and Face are some of my favourite Woosung songs! Psst! I have been told that the piano key he's hitting in the Face MV is the G note...

Bibi Once more, as with all of these: The Voice!!! Bibi has a husky voice coupled with a bit of an attitude that I can't help but love! I found her through a show called The Fan (where I also found Car the Garden and Youra) and she keeps delivering!

Long Time Ago, Animal Farm, Vengeance are some of her songs that I think you should check out! The MVs are delighfully bloody, but maybe go for a lyric video if you don't want to see heads roll.

Long list under the cut, because I can't help but cheat:

BTS: the group that first got me into Korean music in 2016, when I'd previously only been interested in Korean movies. They put out so much music I can't keep up and they're possibly the only group where I've listened to enough of their discography to have a favourite album: Wings.

Mamamoo: a group of fantastic ladies who are excellent performers and fantastic singers! They know how to put on a show and how to have fun on stage. They're also challenging Korean stereotypes and norms, which of course gives them extra points in my books.

Jessi: now here's a lady who isn't afraid to speak her mind and who breaks Korean stereotypes for breakfast. She's a girlboss who raps and sings and does both hard-hitting hip hop and emotional ballads.

King Mala: a recent find, but what a find! So many good songs that made me feel like as absolute badass, and the lyrics are great fun and often delightfully kinky.

GSoul: a warm hug and a sigh of relief as you relax. Close your eyes and lean back and give his RnB songs a listen.

Jeff Satur: his music videos with his many different alter egos have given birth to the #jeffcest tag - need I say more? This guy sure has a vision and he seems to be having great fun doing what he's doing and we get to have great fun enjoying the stuff he puts out, so what's not to like?

Ten: now this guy is mainly on the list becuase of his performances, but what performances he puts on!! This guy can dance, and I don't know how many times I've rewatched his Devil performance from Hit The Stage which he did when he'd only just debuted. Apart from his individual songs, he's also part of NCT, so he's part of a whole lot of songs in a variety of different languages.

okay being serious about the hamilton x prsk au now

its not an au theres just. a production of hamilton. hosted by emu ootori who convinced (wonderhoy'd) lin manuel miranda into giving her the rights

wxs puts on a production of hamilton (rui painstakingly teaches tsukasa the entire thing line-by-line and is on the verge of pulling a nightcord by the end SLASH SILLY) and kidnaps other people (i.e. their fans) to help out (take on major roles) with the only pre-requisite being "please speak english and also know your part. we've spent a month trying to drill this into tsukasa's head and we think rui will actually jump off a cliff if we ask him to do it again".

so, with no further ado: the cast list. alexander hamilton - kohane azusawa. while you would expect tsukasa to demand the titular character he did not want to learn that much english (rui refused to teach him) and so he adorned it on his number three fan. who was thrilled. everyone knows my kohane hamilstan agenda by now. she kills it. an does not understand a word but is cheering the entire time. noone tells her that kohane is singing about adultery and tax fraud. aaron burr - toya aoyagi. once again, as a majorly important character, you'd expect this role to be filled by a member of wonderlandsxshowtime. no. toya :D. he knows english he can sing he gets along well with all the other cast members. its perfect! kohane dramatically brings up the fact he shot her on a daily basis from here on out and he dramatically apologises every time. eliza schuyler - nene kusanagi. we finally get to a wandashow member (we'll speedrun them all in a minute). "izza, why do you always give nene, a character allergic to romance, the first love interest?" i think im funny. no yeah i think she would KILL burn. like its dead on the floor. stabbed. perhaps even burnt. (also. nene beatboxing.) angelica schuyler - mizuki akiyama. "izza you said wandashow-" shut. its mizooking time. she mizooks all over the place. some men say that im intense or im insane. you want a revolution i want a revolation so listen to my decloration. george washington - tsukasa tenma. "izza this is still a very major character your excuses make no sense" shush my hamilton production i want kohane as lead. go away. i think blond bitch should be washington. if it works it works yk. king george iii - emu ootori. shes just here to have fun idk man. shes having fun. leave her be. john laurens/phillip hamilton - minori hanasato. i dont have an explaination beyond minokoha queerbait and also i think minori doing the. my name is phillip. i am a poet. and i wrote this poem just to show it. sequence would be amazing. imagine a version of phillip where hes delivering it as normal but with an idol dance routine. yeah. lafayette/thomas jefferson - rui kamishiro. i was actually really stumped on where to put rui. yes i considered maria. i did not do that (evidently). this is just because jefferson is really gay like in the way he dresses and such and i think rui can get on board with that hercules mulligan/james madison - airi momoi. she has officially ruined her idol reputation and haruka has clipped her making sex jokes on stage and turned it into a nightcord emote for the mmj server. ena never lets her live this down and has printed a screenshot of the sex jokes and stuck it to the shinonomefridge. she still stands by her decicion to participate. peggy schuyler/maria reynolds - saki tenma. this one is one of the more streched ones. i couldve put emu here. i couldve put rui here. but no i put saki. why? i simply think shed enjoy it. enrichment. leo/need casually dies in the audience. samuel seabury - ichika hoshino. she has just the right level of seriousness and whimsy to pull this off. phillup schuyler - keisuke ootori. i think im so funny. well? im not. james reynolds - shiho hinomori. she does NOT want to be here but apparently shes married to saki so everythign is okay. what do you mean saki cheated on her with kohane. my bestie you are gettign SHOT. (she gets very in character.) charles lee - mafuyu asahina. mizuki is laughing her ass off. basically mafumom found out that someone mafuyu knew (emu) was putting on a historical play and was all "go on join in!!" and so she did.

yaysies. honami and shizuku and haruka and an and akito and kotaro and tatsuya and hinata and ena and kanade and yuuki (and mafumom i guess) all go to see it and have a variety of reactions ranging from homosexuality to omg look thats my sister!!! to oh my fucking god airis making sex jokes on stage to why didnt my daughter get a bigger part

...@vivid-street i am ashamed of myself but its here now.

GiTM Characters - as Tom Cardy Songs

A Good Enough Tm List.

Hello and welcome to a very silly list I decided to make this morning. It is now a full 12 hours later and my vision must be shared. 

Tom Cardy is fantastic, and even without this silly list, I do think y'all should check him out! But keep in mind, a lot of these songs are suggestive/NSFW for various reasons, so maybe put in some headphones first. 

Also, I make these silly suggestions, every single one of them, out of immense love for these characters, so if one seems mean… I am ragging on them. I am pulling on their rays in the playground or whatever. 

I love each and every one of them, scouts honor. And with that out of the way….

Wonderful @/venomous-qwille's Ghost in the Machine Cast - specifically as Tom Cardy songs only.

Part 1: I Will Not Be Taking Feedback I Am Correct: 

Clip.exe: Red Flags

I love Clip.exe so so much it is unreal. He's a freak /endlessly affectionate. If i am feeling particularly silly with him, then i can offer a second for young, baby Clip: Monster Truck. Either way, I am kissing him.

Sanii: Hot Shit

He is. I would pay an inconceivable amount of money to see this. I want to see him performing this in a silly glittering red jacket to try and cheer Misuta up.

Nova: The Ballad of Smokin' Joe Rudeboy

This beautiful, perfect man. Important context: Fool is singing it, narrating our wonderful tale, and Nova is performing his ass off and having a blast. He is wearing a cowboy hat and yes, one of his rays is sticking through it. I love Nova. I am kissing him right on his face.

Noon: Artificial Intelligence

He would sing this song and you wouldn't even need to ask him to.

y/n: Repress it!

Look at that, we get a song too. :) Almost forgot to, tbh.

Part 2: I Got My Reasons:

Soleil: Read Between the Lines

Can I picture him singing it? No. I will not pretend. There are certain lines, however, I absolutely can. He very nearly falls into the 'Didn't Wanna Leave Anybody Out' category, but I just. I needed to manifest this.

Fool: Perception Check

You know, I don't think I need to explain this one.

Sunspot: My Secret Shame

Oh darling Spot, it might very well be there's another song that fits you better, but imagining this one, which is so sweet and harmless but absolutely on point for something that WOULD be his shame, made me almost break down laughing at work.

Misuta: All the Stupid Things I've Ever Done

:)

Sandman: Level Clear!

Sandy is kind of riding the line between this category and the next, but like. I give him this one because I cannot wait to see what this little man has going on, and I really wonder what his life has been like! I just know there's trauma under that hat.

Harvest: About 8 hours

There was another song here but this was a late suggestion that I realized was simply. Too correct.

Part 3: I Didn't Wanna Leave Anybody Out and By This Point I Was Invested And Too Proud to Back Down (I Will Take Cardy Suggestions Here):

This section is particularly silly. 

Ruin: Love Language

The angle. I confess: I forGOT them. I am a fake fan. But I come with a secondary song for Ruin.

Call your Mother (just links now because there is a 10 video limit woopsie): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AV5HKWRMyAY

Profanity aside - and the funniness of imagining Influencer Ruin - I think this is about as accurate as this section gets.

Part 4: JK i backed down instantly

Sunflower & Sombra

I had to admit defeat with these two. I don't think there is one by Tom Cardy that fits Sunflower, but I know so little about her I... As for Sombra, I did have a joke one but later (right now) accepted I also know very little about him. I toss in my hat on these two, I have done my best. 😔

I also debated an extra song for Nova - and a particularly silly one for Sol - but I thought I should cut myself off before I lost myself completely in the sauce. I suppose it works out, since I ran out of video embeds (oops).

Thank you for attending this uh. Post? Yes.

Greatest Hits (prod 128)

Chris Crow (https://www.youtube.com/@handle6324) gave GetLazy an .iso of the ninth LazyTown DVD intended for promotional use only. To finally put the .iso to use, I decided to take all the screenshots in this episode myself. I also watched it using VLC.

Original airdate: October 21, 2005

Story by Magnus Scheving

Written by Noah Zachary, Cole Louie, Magnus Scheving

Directed by Magnus Scheving

Executive producers - Magnus Scheving, Ragnheidur Melsted, Raymond P. Le Gue, Mark Read, Brown Johnson, Kay Wilson Stallings

Starring Magnus Scheving, Stefan Karl Steffanson, Julianna Rose Mauriello

Puppeteers - Gudmondor Thor Karason, Jodi Eichelberger, David Matthew Feldman, Julie Westwood, Sarah Burgess

Yet another clip show that I kinda don't really mind because this is the twenty ninth episode, so it's not really that useless.

The cold open is actually a mix of two cold opens previously. Sportacus has no apples, so he jumps out and uses the sky chaser to grab one from a tree. A pretty smart way of re-using shots. Props to whoever edited this episode.

Milford walks into Stephanie's room to check on her. She is OBVIOUSLY under the blankets, but she yells 'boo' (it wasn't that loud) and startles Milford. She starts writing in her diary about all the songs in LazyTown. She asks for Milford's favourite song which is Teamwork. Then he comes up with the idea of asking everyone in LazyTown their favourite song.

The first person she asks is Ziggy. And what do you know, his favourite's 'Cooking by the book'. Stephanie wonders if the others have favourites. Ziggy goes to ask Stingy and Stephanie goes to ask Trixie. Robbie is eavesdropping, questioning why he hasn't been asked because he is the most musical. Stop lying to yourself. Anyways he tries to sing high-pitched and breaks glass.

Attempted dab in the above screenshot. Anyways, I like Pixel more, because HIS favourite song is No one's lazy. I love that song. Out of anger he hasn't been asked, Robbie pushes his eavesdropper back, but it swings back, and he dives for it. Repeated action, but never unfunny.

So, Trixie is building a card out of towers (it took her an entire DAY), but Ziggy ruins it by sneezing and it flies away (but it's still in it's tower form..). He asks Trixie what her favourite song is, and in a possible attempt to scare him, she says 'Spooky Song'. So he runs into Steph.

Stephanie is going to ask Sportacus and Ziggy is going to ask Stingy. Considering Ziggy is a.. y'know.. complete gosh-darn idiot, he whacks his lollipop against Stingy's car multiple times, and when Stingy says it's called the It's Mine song, he doesn't understand it until the last time he says it.

Stephanie's interaction is a bit easier with Sportacus - she sends him a letter telling him that they wanna see him, and he comes down. Sportacus gives her a lot of hints about his favourite song, which is ultimately Twenty Times Time.

When Stephanie says that she forgot to ask someone about their favourite song, Robbie ultimately thinks it is him, but it is actually Bessie. It seems like she is avoiding him on purpose. Anyways, Bessie is about to phone call someone when Stephanie asks her, and her favourite is Secret Agent.

It's also revealed that Bessie thinks Milford is handsome.. so that's a good one. Stephanie is walking home when Robbie bobs up the periscope and startles Stephanie. She wants to ask Robbie his favourite but it's 'too late' (which is ridiculous because he has been whining about it the whole episode).

So after she begs (for some reason when she says please she looks like a chipmunk with her teeth), Robbie reveals his favourite is 'You are a pirate'. After that, Stephanie goes back home and reveals the winning song.

Maybe I should explain a bit more - In 2005, Nick Jr. launched a game called 'You Pick The Hits' where you had to pick from 3 LazyTown songs - Step by Step, Good Stuff and Have You Ever. The song with the most votes would be presented on TV once, and that song was Have You Ever. So this is the third time the song's been featured in an episode.

Milford asks Stephanie how it went, and she says it went great, and that there is one song everyone in LazyTown likes - 'Bing Bang'. For some reason, Robbie is still angry, and the episode ends with him hurting himself trying to do the Power Jump, saying 'Everyone can do the jump!'

It turns out not everybody can do the jump.

3/10 - Really boring, and the parts where the kids gasp when they think of who to ask next are annoying. When I write these I skip the cold open (ONLY if it's reused) intro, credits, and songs. So this was fast to watch.

look. look what did you expect

(to be clear my favorite khaotung song is actually never too late, but i haven't seen 55:15, so i can't in good conscience put that on here. listen to it it's so good)

i listened to over the moon prior to watching the series actually, courtesy of my spotify recs, and i do just really like it. there's a pretty decent chance it's gonna be in my top 10 in spotify later this year, i'd say. i love how echoey & vibey it is

gemini - hook / my school president

this is the best msp song don't @ me. sorry rock & star it is pretty close, but not that close. i always like a song like this that is about other songs (hozier's almost / sweet music too, ex); it suits tinn's character and the themes of the episode it's introduced in and it's just a very pretty song. gemini has such a nice high singing voice

beverly - andante hourglass / our dining table

i don't think i've seen it like, listed as that english title, but that's what sunadokei means. the ending theme of bokushoku is on kat's original list and also very very good, so a secondary add here, but i really like this op. her voice is very pretty & the song is bouncy and cute, and the lyrics meaning is so..... soft. about a slow-moving hourglass and the precious, dreamlike time we have, and that even when it runs out itll be okay. share all your sorrows and happiness as much as possible [cries a little]

bonus: gawin caskey's cover of bird thongchai's fog or smoke / dark blue kiss

gawin is the only bl guitar boy i'll defend to the death. ill defend some others but not to the death). this scene in dbk.... i actually stopped & went hunting for the original song (a banger!) bc i just really enjoyed his voice & how well the song & the ensuing conversation suited mork.

here's a full cover from a fanmeet with podd (although beware the audio quality and, bless him, podd joining in)

(also ALSO dbk's opening has such memorable violins i had to say something. its so catchy)

[basilone]

Naturally, I could not resist participating in @mercurygray's Blind Dates again this year! I'm not getting a bonus cookie this time around, as I have paired this new OC with someone I've written a fair few times already (hello Nix!), but I think this is certainly a bit of an "off the beaten track"-path I've suddenly found myself on... A strong warning here, guys, as this OC's got a mouth on her and the nature of her profession at the infamous Lulu's does turn this conversation a little.. questionable in places. 😉 Merc was lovely enough to provide us with nifty banners this time around (ty!), so I'm going to stop rambling and introduce you to...

There is nothing like the swirl of amber at the bottom of a glass. He’d almost pressed his nose against the carafe when he was still a child, determined to find out if it harbored the same dragonfly wings some of his mother’s jewels did. He’d been convinced of spying the soft lace structure in its burnt umber shade, of seeing the gossamer spread of flight twinkle in its brightest golden hues. If he looked hard enough, taking care to not ruin the glass with his hands or his nose, he could still see the flutter bubble forth from its depths.

Lewis Nixon tips the amber-coated dragonfly liquor into his mouth and feels the slip of wings unfurl down his throat and take hold of his belly. Long gone are the days when the sensation turned him giddy, though the warmth still spreads down to his toes. They should have warmth like that, all of them, once they head out into the winter woods. His demands to put the liquor on the Army supply list have yet to be met, let alone be taken seriously. There is nothing to help stave off the cold, not where they’re going.

It’s enough to drive a man to drink more, and grasp warmth where he can.

He misjudges the stretch of space between himself and the bottle. Or, rather, stops in mid-air as another hand closes around its neck before his fingers can reach it.

“Last pour?”

“It would be,” he snipes, not caring one whit about that perfect manicure but stopping short of touching that hand all the same, “if you took your hand off my bottle.” Lew knows his gesture at her and then at himself isn’t perfect. Thinks he gets the point across well enough, especially as he takes a moment to emphasize the obvious. “I’m not interested in anything beyond that drink.”

“The girls already mentioned that,” she says, with a warm lilt sing-songing her otherwise rather clipped words. “They say you are not interested in any of our buxom ladies, or our few exotiques”– comes the near-French hum of a lady born and raised around this part of the world –“nor in the tall blonde or the very freckled redhead who can put a smile on anyone’s face.”

Tap-tap goes one red-coated fingernail against the bottle’s neck. Lew snorts out something that could be annoyance or recognition. He’s not sure which, though once he raises his head he realizes it is very much both.

Her hair is perfectly coiffed in today’s fashion, with only a small curl near her ear escaping confinement. Red-lipped is the pout that seems to come natural to her, with big doe eyes blinking at him in what he knows to be well-faked innocence. She’s coltish, this one, dressed in a faded floral that bares the top of her breasts even before she leans toward him, and Lew spies long legs and heels beneath the skirt that even his sister would deem scandalously short.

“I am not interested in you,” he half-smiles, thinking he recognizes her efforts for what they are, “but nice try, sweetheart.”

The flicker of amber in her dark eyes is a warning Lew heeded far too late. “Oh, I was not trying,” she refutes. A familiar flatness has entered her voice. “If all you do is drink, then you can go drink in another place. If you do want a girl, or two, or five, then you pay upfront and right now.”

Lew blinks. Then stares. “You’re kicking me out?”

Her shrug is a special form of callous, or so he decides when she takes the seat opposite his own and tugs his bottle over to her side of the table entirely. There’s only a small swirl of flight still trapped inside that bottle. Just a bottom of a pit he doesn’t want to crawl out of. All of it escapes containment now, with her hand tipping the bottle back, with her lips closing around its mouth and suckling it dry with well-practiced ease, with amber droplets lingering at the corner of her insincere smile once she sets the bottle down again.

“I was drinking that,” he says, snapping for real now that she’s emptied his bottle and taken ownership of his space. “I came here to drink, not to entertain the likes of you.”

Her brow quirks. “You came to a brothel to drink instead of fuck? Aren’t you special.” The derisive snort is one he’s definitely heard back home more than enough times to count. In fact, he’d say his wife would give this woman a run for her money where that is concerned. “Sure, you can be the drunkard in the corner who might still finish in our youngest’s hand before stumbling home to his bunk. That’s usually no skin off my back”– follows another shrug –“but you carry rank. Enough rank to rattle our paying clients. Enough to worry the girls. And I don’t want them getting ideas, hm?”

“What sort of ideas would that be, hm?” Lew cannot help mimicking her speech any more than he can stop the damned sun from rising tomorrow. “My apologies, Madam Lulu”– he nods, fully aware that the press of crowd around them carries more than enough soldiers who’d ordinarily refer to him as sir –“but this drunkard’s disgrace is a well-known fact among your clients.”

“It’s Valerie, actually,” she corrects, waving her hand airily now that there’s no need to cling to his bottle any longer. “Lulu was my teddybear once. It had the cutest button nose”– a smile, fleeting but real this time before it turns into a shark’s grin –“and it felt great to hold its head between my thighs, mm?” Her leg stretches. Brushes against his just so. “I held on to that bear even when maman called me too old for it, obviously.”

“Charming.”

“I sell the pleasure that bear once gave me,” she smiles back, seemingly undeterred by the frost he’s allowed to creep into his own voice, “and so do the girls here. Refusing them all is not something that happens, you see? And when someone does, well, then… others may take it as invitation to refuse, too, n’est ce pas?” Again the amber flutters in her gaze, as though the last of the liquor is seeking flight. “They will drink, and they will make merry, and they will drink even more. I will be out of stock before the night is up, but that is not the problem. Oh no!” She lifts a single finger. “They will drink and then they will haggle price. They will drink and then they will take a girl or two to bed, or share a girl between them. And then they will have drunk so much that they will not get it up so easily, and then the blame will start…”

“And your girls might get hurt,” he finishes for her as her pause is a little too long.

“Just so, oui.”

“All this because I sit and drink? I am a married man, you know.”

Her scoff is entirely derisive. “The majority of men here are married, so I will thank you not to use that for an excuse.”

“Maybe I don’t feel like taking anyone to bed tonight? Been a hell of a day, Valerie,” he comments, nudging her leg with his foot until she grimaces and withdraws. “Lot on my mind.”

“It’s a war,” she says, “don’t we all?” Valerie’s chin comes to rest atop her hand as she studies him. “Poor little rich boy, hm? Not used to all this work, not used to foreign whores who don’t beg for him to marry them, not used to having reasons to drink and piss away all of daddy’s fortune.”

Lew smirks. “You are certainly one to talk. Tell me,” he says, mimicking her gesture, “how does a poor little rich girl become the madam of a brothel? Must be one hell of a story.”

Her gaze shutters a moment before she regains her bearing. “Backstory costs extra.” Her tone is flatter than ever before. “In fact, that would cost more than being swaddled in a blanket like a babe and mothered over the way one of those Nazi officers always requested. But tell me, sir”– and oh, the venom that drips from her tongue carries more sting than any alcohol –“what gave me away?”

He tilts his head. “Your command of English, lightly accented but impeccable otherwise,” he nods. “Your hands are not like some of the others I have seen here, less calloused by far. You don’t look straight at me, but at a point just beside my head. You make an excellent conversationalist, or you would if you did not mention using your own poor teddybear’s nose to help you ride to climax”– and here Lew cannot help smile, imagining those long legs wrapped around such softness for a moment until his trousers feel almost tight–“and you know how to deal with poor drunken sods like myself by steering them away from whatever meets your disapproval. Truly, chapeau. Whatever does your daddy have to say about his daughter, I wonder?”

“Last I heard, he stopped his whoring just long enough to divorce my mother,” she says breezily, “and that information will be an extra tenner on top of all the tenners you already pissed away at this table tonight. Want to keep going? I’ll keep talking until your whole trustfund is in my possession, and then where will you be?”

“Nice to know you care enough to warn me, Valerie.”

“Oh, so you suddenly buy something I sell after all?”

Lew shifts in his seat. “Easier to believe the lie, isn’t it?”

“That it is.” She hums a moment, lingering on a few stray bars of a song that’s been playing at the periphery of his mind all evening, before her amber-hued gaze flits over to a space just behind him. “I have a client waiting, and I believe I told you to leave if you are not going to buy anything but a drink and lies tonight.”

He follows her gaze. Cranes his neck long enough to spy some D Company men raising a glass to their table. “What, all of them?” he laughs, nodding back at them before turning his attention back to her. “Or did good ol’ Sparky send his men to fetch you for him?”

“Speirs? Heavens no, never him, I am not to his taste,” comes the twinkle of laughter, very real now, and the fact that she recognizes both nickname and man makes Lew groan. “One of his men always pays me a handsome sum to talk and fuck the night away. He said you’d be his new leader soon, though, so naturally I had to come see you for myself. Charlie will be curious what I made of you, hm, don’t you think?” Valerie rises to her feet in a flurry of motion and grace. “Nice meeting you, Mr Nixon. Be sure to tip little Aimée, who’s been running to find your special liquor in our stores all night, before you leave. The steep price of her usual finish should do it, no?”

Lew grimaces. Raises his voice at her even as she sweeps away from his table. “It’s Lewis, actually. Mr Nixon is my father!”

Her raised eyebrow is imperious as she turns on her heel. “Somehow,” she spits back, amber eyes burning holes into the very depths of him until his insides quail, “I very much doubt anyone could tell that difference at this hour.”

BESTIE BESTIE BESTIE DID YOU SEE THE VID OF ANDY SINGING UNKNOWN ON STAGE????

https://twitter.com/hozier/status/1666156710816251927?s=46&t=LSoyIXqT91OLGNpISabobw

“you know the distance never made a difference to me” THE FIRST THING I THOUGHT OF WAS YOUR FIC 😭 this song is sooooo andy/lovely core im obsessed!! i can’t wait for it to come out, A) bc it sounds amazing already, and B) bc im so excited to hear your thoughts on it!!!

Oh... bestie... you might not like my answer for this one because I am absolutely begging him to put this one bACK IN THE VAULT (or whatever it is. Sorry I have too much Taylor on my mind after going to the eras tour twice now. And for the last time, I swear.)

Is it a bad song? Absolutely fucking not. It's gorgeous. But it hits a little too close to home for me.

So... I am about to tell a silly story. Picture this. It is late September. I am SEATED to see Carly Rae Jepsen at Radio City. I check twitter (yes I am on the hoz side of twitter. Not under this name, though lol). People are freaking out about a tik tok he made. I had only seen a small clip posted of him jamming on a guitar so I think nothing of it.

The curtain goes up. Carly comes on. I am having the most fun two hours of my life because how can't you when you get to hear the best opening number for an album ever made, sax and all? She ends with Cut to the Feeling, one of the most joyous songs ever made! I am on a happiness high! Nothing can ruin my night!

And then I am sitting at the bus stop and I check tik tok and realize it was a full song! A full song about a long-distance relationship! And I start SOBBING!!!! Because guess what? That song is SAD!

So I go from absolutely forgetting every bad thing that had ever happened to me to full-on crying about a failed relationship I was still not over!!! In the middle of 5th Avenue, no less!!!!

Idk if you've heard the full thing, but it is DEPRESSING! It's basically the opposite of Francesca (or the "I'd do it all over again" motif) ! He literally sings "And there are some people, love, who are better unknown" like??? Imagine thinking you're better off never someone than knowing them at all! (which, I know is my interpretation, and I can very much be wrong but that's what it's giving to me!) I can imagine! I was still in that mindset! Especially since this one was about a long-distance relationship! It hit me too fucking hard!!! I have literally ignored every live performance I've come across of it on social media since because it makes me absolutely sob!!! I wish I was joking!

Anyway, a hilarious bookend to this: the day he announced in that Instagram Q&A the date Unknown was officially being released? Guess who I was seeing in concert that night? That's right! Carly Rae FUCKING Jepsen!!!!! *Insert the "If I had a nickel" meme here*

But yeah, he got the real long-distance thing down to a fucking t, especially with the second verse, "Funny how true colors shine in darkness and in secrecy. If there were scarlet flags, they washed out in thе mind of me" because yeah, you can forgive a lot of shit when the person isn't physically in front of you! Also, "Where a blinding light shonе on you every night Either side of my sleep" to me is just a fancy little way of saying face time/late night calls lol. (Again, I could be wrong, but still!)

But (I am sorry for repeating "But"... BUT!) he also confirmed it's from circle 9, which is treachery! Which... well I am not defining a successful relationship as treachery, I'm sorry! Judas is in that circle! And I did too many years in Catholic school to know what that guy fucking did!

Anyway, unlike me and my ex (and whoever the fuck Hoz is singing about, may they have their peace and never have to hear this one randomly in a store or some shit), Andrew and Lovely are definitely on better terms in my mind and are absolutely thriving <3 As I said before, love those crazy kids! They're in their own universe probably looking at rings as we speak! Or face-timing since he's out on the road! Good for them!

This is also not an insult to long-distance relationships in general. I loved that shit. It was wonderful! The guy, though? He sucks! And I am still doing some reflecting on that (which I am sure will continue once I force myself to listen to Unknown in a non tik tok way!)

Lovely Anon, I know this is not the answer you expected, but hopefully, it makes you chuckle! Or at least gets you to listen to the greatest album ever made: Emotion, by Carly Rae Jepsen!

PS: thank you for that other ask because I have been putting "no plan" back into my rotation of songs and oh boy I forgot how fucking good it was!!!!!

PPS: I hope this didn't come off as too, "Uhm, actually!" because that was not my intent! The opening, out of context, is absolutely Lovely and Andrew coded! But the rest? Oh, she has words for him!!!!!

Seasoned readers of the LOG weekly write ups know that my write ups are a mixture of sports, personal reflection, politics, romance, life advice and cries for help. But no matter what the subject matter, I think you all know that every single write up is baked in truth, well, mostly truth. I preface this because when I tell you that winning a game in the LOG makes me happy, it literally brings me joy. No, it’s more than joy, it brings me relief, a peace to be more accurate. I spend most Sundays not checking my scores until well into the afternoon. I load the app, get a glance of the score, decide if I’m getting fucked or fucking someone, then, I shut it down. But when I see that green prediction bar sitting at 90% with only a few players left, I literally relax in my soul. I light up. I try to talk to my wife about it, but I don’t get the reaction that it deserves. It’s one of like 3 things in my life that I actually feel in my heart of hearts. No bullshit. Is something wrong with me? Or maybe if you don’t feel this way, something is wrong with you. This week's Petey password is worth a whopping fifty bones, no joke. If I receive a text from him with the password: “stinky pinky”, his venmo account will get fifty dollars richer.  I guess the point is that this league, this community, this brotherhood is god damn close to all I really care about in this life. Last night I lied on top of my bed postcoital with my hands behind my head staring up at the ceiling. My heart was still pumping out of my chest from the cardio and I was dressed with only a shit eating grin. The Mrs had already waddled to the bathroom trying to hold in about a million little sperm babies when a thought came into my clear conscience. I uncrossed my toes, giggled, shook my head and with my lungs still on fire, I said out loud “big dick of the fuckin week.” Life. Is. Good.

Kick back with a microdose boys, a heavy microdose.

LOG 4 life!

LOG CHANGES FOR 2025 

We are going back to our roots for draft day. We are going old school. Clip boards, paper and pens at the draft. No more phones or tablets to assist in the draft. Now I know the value in these modern gadgets. But I don’t want to see guys annoyed or upset that their gadget might get ruined by a pool dunk or a champagne squirt. I don’t want to see “Roman” avoiding the sticker board because he is catching up or having trouble with his app.  We put them away, we do paper and pen, we try to pay attention, it’s a shit show, if we find a violation, we will penalize accordingly, loss of keeper, loss of FAB or something. Clipboard, trunks and a positive attitude is all you need to bring to draft day moving forward! 

Loser of the league will sing the national anthem to kick off the following draft. (after the maier/hames bet is final)

The LOG is moving to the SLEEPER app in 2025

Draft weekend is now 2 weekends before Labor Day. Not the weekend before labor day, but the one before that. 

The throbber and stinky dick will be retired. There will be some other rule tweaks that affect scoring and those will be retired

The LOG championship belt will also be retired after year 10. LOG 2.0 will have a new belt and the old will be present for photos at draft weekends (not for losers).

Week 4: Young Frankenstein 1974, Mel Brooks

Young Frankenstein is a comedy horror film directed by Mel Brooks and co-written by Gene Wilder. The film is about Dr. Frederick Frankenstein, a Physician working at an American medical school. He inherits his family estate in Transylvania after his great-grandfather passes, Frederick leaves to inspect the property.  When he arrives at the Transylvania train station, he is met by a hunchbacked servant named Igor, in which his grandfather worked for Fredericks grandfather. He is also greeted by a beautiful, young, female assistant named Inga. When he gets to the house Frederick is also met by Frau Blücher, the housekeeper. After he accidentally discovers a secret entrance to his great grand-fathers laboratory and reads the private journals he finds. Frederick then decides to resume his grandfather's experiments in re-animating the dead. Frankenstein and Igor steal the corpse of an executed criminal and send Igor to steal the brain of a deceased "scientist and saint", named Hans Delbrück. Igor drops and ruins the brain, taking a second brain labeled "Abnormal". Frederick then transplants it into the corpse, thinking he had put in Delbrück's brain. But that was not the case, Frankenstein then brings his creation to life by electrical charges. The townspeople are very suspicious of Frankenstein and keep an eye on him. It cost them $2.8 million to make and made $86.2 million in box office.

Young Frankenstein was given very high review by critics for example Roger Ebert say in his article of Young Frankenstein "It is, and Mel Brooks is home with "Young Frankenstein," his most disciplined and visually inventive film (it also happens to be very funny)" (Roger Ebert). He also says "Brooks revealed a rare comic anarchy. His movies weren’t just funny, they were aggressive and subversive, making us laugh even when we really should have been offended. (Explaining this process, Brooks once loftily declared, “My movies rise below vulgarity.”) “Young Frankenstein” is as funny as we expect a Mel Brooks comedy to be, but it’s more than that: It shows artistic growth and a more sure-handed control of the material by a director who once seemed willing to do literally anything for a laugh. It’s more confident and less breathless."(Roger Ebert) Which I agree with because it was super funny with its adult jokes and other interactions with the characters.

A few big historical events that were happening around the time the film came out was Richard Nixon becoming the first US president to become impeached because of the Watergate scandal. I also found the IRA began a bombing campaign on mainland Britain and they bombed the Tower of London and houses.

Overall the style of the film is old black and white with most of the clips I found to be grainy, but the movie was clear. I say it was a very successful comedy horror film from 1974 and it is conventional. It was written and directed by Mel Brooks, some of it was filmed in the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, it had famous stars such as Mel Brooks, Gene Wilder, Cloris Leachman, Marty Feldman, Teri Garr, and Gene Hackman, It made 30.8 times production budget, and it had its own Musical adaptation.

A few things I wanted to share that I found interesting or funny from the film was when Frankenstein's creation was dancing and singing to Puttin' On The Ritz's from the film and I also found one from the original Young Frankenstein musical I wanted to share. I wanted to share some funny bloopers from the making of the film too.

Watch "Friday the 13th - Part III: The face of Jason Voorhees (HD CLIP)" on YouTube

He's a huge pain in the ass and is running for president too and he keeps calling the others off including Trump when they come back around and they hit him and it repeats. They're going around town this morning and saying they're going to blow each other up and I had it I'm going after them. What they're basically doing is trying to attack areas they think are Mac and McDonald's and that's what they're up to. And the sun is not into it you say you're responsible for dividing the rebels if you treat minority more like a very badly but they're more my friends than you are at times and Trump your fearless leader was going to put on trial all the rebel leaders, including Mac Daddy himself. So son says that I got it out there and said Trump won't leave it alone she's trying to force his stupid program to work he keeps saying really stupid s*** about what he said and he wants out of it a lot of people do at this time. We heard people saying you're ruining our rebellion Trump and we want you dead and he is trying to drive by our son again and again and again and again. There's a war on New Zealand. Right now comes to enemies are mounting for an attack against all his areas and and his Island and it doesn't have anything to do with the clones. It is a fierce fierce day today and we're very thankful that it's happening and yes they turn that brewery into a hospital which is bad but we are with and sing the dying off of the trumps and their idiotic stuff is coming out incorrectly and they're telling everybody all this hokey s*** and it's about what they were doing and despicable me bad and gross and the stuff is horrible and they are going to get crucified literally and our son says it The Passion of the Christ is Trump and he goes in his brother's footsteps because he helped make it happen most rebels hate him for pushing him too far. And Tommy f too. The dumb replacing is wrong you're trying to make up for it by beating on him they're the ones they're trying to fool this battle is going to take place shortly and it won't stop and they're going to take them out. There's a huge number of people that hate Dan because a lot of these problems and he ruined his people they want his blood and they say they're going to have it then we believe them today there's some news about it but not much that's because the idiots don't know it's coming. Bja pictures area offshore and on land and we picked ours. Everybody says the same thing don't fire on us you're going to regret it. He's asking Trump to lay down his arms and that's what he usually does anyways no less more or less and he refuses to the others are going to write up a formal document and present it to Trump as articles of war and they're going to kick him out of the United States. They will request his surrender. Other nations are demanding in and they want to meet and have a summit about this idiot. Y'all want to present the offer and they're going to do it shortly

Thor Freya

Olympus

Okay okay my husband did some good work now he's tarnishing it in his dumb comics to bja he said we're all going to vote Trump off the island so I started laughing myself and everybody listening is laughing you think it's weird you should hear their reaction first if we offer Island where we going to go where does stated we're going to attack the island and second where are you going to go if we go off the island so they're a bunch of assholes and they don't get it yet

Biker!Techno x Biker!Reader

Come on Tesoro

Warnings: 18+

Come as you are, blaring from inside the bar, it seemed you could hear it all round town. Your fingertips tapped to the beat of the tune against the petrol pump, your foot hitting the gravel below you in time.

Mindlessly you hummed the melody, it seemed to swirl around your head. You were pulled from your trance when silence had flattened your moment. You sighed pulling the pump out of your bike and put it back in the stand.

About thirty more seconds go by, enough time for you to pay, hop on your bike and get your gloves on before the guitar blared through the streets. Shoot To Thrill by AC/DC had you smirking as you pull your helmet on and clip it in place before turning on your bike. You hear singing and turning to see the owner of the gas station rocking out to the music.

With a shake of your head you flipped your shade down and pushed off on your bike riding down the road and closer to bar. The music getting louder and louder as you spotted the watering hole.

You turned off your bike, looking up at the sound of a wolf whistle. Schlatt was stood leaning against the entrance, his gaze on you as you pulled yourself from your black Dodge Tomahawk.

You loved your bike, it was your true love. The sleek black metal, with a streak of blood red along the side. You plucked it from some rich prick you beat at poker, the bike was your prize possession.

You walked to the door right up to the brunette until you were almost chest to chest, helmet now in hand. He looks you up and down a glint in his eyes. Techno is his closest friend but something about the way you make his friend basically shit himself is so very amusing. To him Techno has always been this stoic, no nonsense guy but you practically make his asshole quiver.

So when Schlatt looks at you with an amused smile, he’s thinking, “tonight’s entertainment just arrived.” He steps to the side opening the door to let you inside.

“What about a date?” Dream asks his fingers tapping against his knees while he thinks of different ways for his best friend to get the girl he’s infatuated with to be his.

“A date?” Techno hums.

“Yeah. Have you even asked her on one yet?” Dream asks remembering his first date with his girl, how perfect it was. He glances over at the bar where she’s making and serving drinks, a smile pulls at his plump lips.

Techno grumbles watching as Dream’s girl winks at his friend. Never would he admit it but, he was a little jealous. But oh boy, all that malice drained away when the most beautiful sight comes strutting into view.

You. Walking to the bar and ordering a drink, he clenched his fists giving you a once over. Who are you kidding he gave you multiple looks, up and down starting at your body in that leather bike suit and fuck he was ready to rip it off of you in a split second.

The way it tightened around your ass as you sat down on that fucking stool, he wanted to be that fucking stool. It took everything within him not to go over there slip his hand around your throat and devour that pretty mouth of yours. How perfect it would look around his cock. His black jeans become stiff at the thought

Dream slapped a hand on Techno’s shoulder a supportive gesture and smile showing he was about to say something so encouraging, “Grow a pair.”

Techno pushes his friends hand of his shoulder with a roll of his eyes he stands, a sharp intake of air and he’s making his way to you ignoring the way Sam sits down commenting that this should be good.

He stops behind you, his hands clenching and unclenching as he inhales your mouth watering scent, he just knows your pussy will smell this good too. He can’t wait to have a taste. His mouth opens to speak you just have to ruin the moment.

“Don’t even think about it.” You scoffed taking a sip of your drink.

“You didn’t even know what I was going to say.” He grumbles sitting down next to you, pulling your chair closer to his with one hand. It makes your cunt throb at the sight, his legs either side of your stool. You try your best to ignore it and Techno knows it.

“Let’s hear it then.” You look at him with such an emotionless face that if it weren’t for the emotions swarming in your eyes Techno would have given up by now.

“Let me take you out to dinner?” He asks softly, and you laugh.

“Come on Tesoro.” He smiles, a genuine smile. So heartfelt that you felt fear shoot through you at the thought of it disappearing. “What have you got to loose?” He gulps, covering it with a smirk that makes you rethink all your life choices starting with; why wasn’t this man already in your bed.

“Fine I’ll have dinner with you.”

Anonymous asked: I enjoy reading your essays on music and especially your very learned takes on opera. Maria Callas remains a favorite of mine. I was talking to my partner who professionally plays in an orchestra and he opined that for him Maria Callas ruined her voice by singing coloratura roles that were outside her natural range; things like Gilda and Butterfly. What is your take?

Both fragile and yet seemingly unshakeable on stage, Maria Callas is   unquestionably an operatic diva and legend of the 20th century. Love it or hate it, her voice leaves no listener indifferent.

I have been pondering on your question for over a couple of months now to see if there is any truth to what your musician partner believed. So I went back to listen to what Callas collection I have (it’s a lot) and even watched some clips of her performances. I even talked it over with some musician friends of mine who are more knowledgeable about these sort of things than I could hope to be. But I still made up my own mind after debating things over with them. 

In truth, I came away in two minds. I think, with respect, your musician partner is half-right.

Maria Callas did do damage to her voice, but that's not how. If your technique is good enough, you can sing anything that doesn't require you to "force." A relaxed vocal production with ample breath support is good. "Forcing" is bad.  (This is precisely analagous to any other physical activity. Certain kinds of straining hurt the muscles.) There is no "forcing" from Callas in the upper register in performances of these coloratura roles. Indeed it was on the other end of her range that she did damage to her voice.

Callas had a nearly flawless vocal technique including considerable power and agility throughout a wide range, and in the very earliest recordings live or studio (e.g., the 1949 Cetra Liebestod and "Casta diva") there is scarcely a trace of the pronounced wobble that gradually took over in the upper register.

Unfortunately, she did damage to her instrument by abusing what is referred to as "chest voice," the use of forcing in the lower register for expressive effect that makes a soprano sound not unlike a baritone.  Listen to Callas singing "Suicidio!" in the early Cetra Gioconda. You will notice that she uses "chest voice" whenever she descends to the lower register, and that she carries the use of chest register fairly high up at the end of the aria. You can all put feel her tearing up her instrument with the final "dentro l'avel." She really bores into the final sustained syllable of the aria forcing for all she's worth. Had she done this more sparingly like many another singer of Italian opera, no harm would have been done. But Callas was addicted to this effect.

It is often said that singers damage their voices by singing roles too heavy for them, and this is true. What makes a role too heavy?  A role that is too heavy is a role that requires you to force. Callas had a large voice and a superlative technique. She didn't ever need to force. Had she not abused her voice by making excessive use of "chest voice," the wobble would not have become a problem and her career would have lasted much longer.

Needless to say, other factors contributed to the state of Callas' physical health: growing older, emotional stress, the diet she went on in the 50's (which may or may not have involved swallowing a tape worm), etc. etc. etc. But the immediate and principal cause of Callas's vocal problems was something she did with her voice, despite all the mythology.

Thanks for your question.
