devastating to go into the tag for an obscure vampire movie I've been quietly obsessed with for years to find mostly gifsets of minor characters (played by big-name actors) and review blogs saying they didn't like it :(
@ everyone who made a post saying "I liked it :)" I am blowing you a kiss. everyone who made a lovely gifset or photoset of the cinematography I am tipping my hat. that one poster that said "bro did y'all just miss the Entire Message about class and race or???" I am shaking your hand with enthusiasm there was SUCH a message about class and race
anyway everybody should watch Night Teeth and revel in glitzy flashy modern vampires in LA with me
#finx rambles#night teeth#vampires#apparently the marketing heavily overemphasized megan fox (she has a bit role. she's in like one scene)#so that one's not on the fans#but I am sad about all those people fuming bc it didn't have a poly ending#girl this is hollywood? what did you expect?#invent it yourself? that is what fandom is for?? queer reads have always been about discarding endings and living in the liminal??#(side note I love queer readings of fairy tales. fairy tales class was so fun. god I need sleep or something my brain is on SUCH tangents.)#frustrated by that one post saying 'the vampire-slaying gang leader spends the day after a catastrophe befalls#trying to get his shift covered at work? unrealistic'#bro he's working class. he's poor. he's gotta put food on the table. do you think your job cares about your personal tragedy#this is in fact part of the Themes At Play wrt class. believe it or not.#sad also about those reviews that are like 'eh it was mid' but I've never needed critics to agree with me and I'm not about to start now#I did think the gifmakers would be on my side though#the lighting in this movie???#that whole opening sequence in the credits with the storytelling done through reflections in cars at night?#the color choices??? the lighting??!?!?!?!

Best thing about being a Scooby Doo fan: you can meet some of the nicest people with some really cool ideas and hcs, there's such an abiding love for the franchise, which on its own is just AMAZING, such a wealth of content to dive into, and I haven't even gotten into the fan REDESIGNS and aus and-
Worst thing about being a Scooby Doo fan: people irl in public will come up to you with some of the worst Scooby takes ever (Scrappy found dead in Miami, SDMI revolutionized animation, etc.) and you have to restrain yourself from getting into a fistfight with some rando acquaintance/friend-of-a-friend in public ALL THE TIME 💀
#THERES NO WAY THIS ONLY HAPPENS TO ME RIGHT#its constanttttt ughhhh#james gunn i fucking hate you this is all your fault 🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡🗡#not the sdmi stuff but the REST#there should be a jail sentence for scooby crimes i SWEAR#also this one dude today UGHHHHHHHU#ive never even seen him before (apparently hes been in my math class this year?) but with all the seniors gone (save me bc i love a party)#there was like 5 ppl in math today (4 of them good friends of mine) and this dude would NOT let up with the scrappy sucks sdmi is awesome bs#like i was just like no i disagree with you every time he brought it up but like UGH.#i think scrappy got a bad lot and deserves a chance to be the best he can be and sdmi is personally unwatchable to me because of how mean#they are to each other/the relationship drama plots. whats not to get we dont need to keep hashing this#i didn't make it a big thing though bc i didn’t want to start stuff but ugh#the only ppl allowed to make fun of scrappy around me are my besties and even theyre on thin ice so like watch it bub#blah#scooby doo

isnt it crazy that someone can make a completely legal app for ios but if apple doesn't want it in its app store because of lol lmao reasons you have to then go through a gazillion loops just to get this one app and also millions of people buy apple's products because they don't see the problem with an operating system that fully controls what you can or can't have on your device and also has several other major problems. insane
#m#like ive been taking my 3ds to english classes because the kids find it more fun than regular ol' excerises#and also watching movies gets stale pretty fast#but out of the 9 games i own only three let me change the language to english#because pokemon and apparently professor layton too thought it was a very smart idea to have region-locked games 🤪#but getting a ds emulator on ios is soooooooo goddamn dififcult. cant just download a zip file you have to hack your iPad or smth#cant download music either you have to download itunes and put your music files on iTunes and then sync your iPad to itunes#but also it makes a backup copy everytime even though i don't want one and there's no way to turn that off#and also cant transfer files to your ipad you have to do it through a third party app and they all have really small storage limits#and another gazillion issues that windows or even android don't have 🧨💣🧨🧨💣🧨💣🧨💣🧨💣🧨💣#hate this thang. i cant believe people told me it was worth spending 600€ on this than buying another cheap ass drawing tablet

…
why the fuck does my brain have to betray me right before hanging out with friends?
i like spending time with these friends. i don’t get to do it a lot (with any of my friends really) and it’s probably the last chance i’ll have for a while with the school year approaching
and yet. today i am hollow and very low and now the insomnia is overwhelmingly bad because i am in a very bad spot (week out from my period which is definitely playing a part in all this- have been emotionally volatile all week but it’s at its peak today i guess)
idk. i just hate this because i feel like a flake. i feel like a bad friend. i want nothing more than to go over and get drunk with my friends and maybe just let it all go for a night. but i don’t know if i can. if i feel this empty and shitty tomorrow i’ll probably make up some lame excuse and stay home and wallow.
it’s just so so so frustrating to want to do something so badly, to want to show up and be social because you’re so rarely a social being, and then have your stupid fucking mind ruin it all before it can even happen. i feel so useless and unworthy
#exie vents#this one is.. not good. pls ignore#i am not doing very well at the moment#idk my friends and fam left this afternoon and i’m home alone and for some reason that’s breaking me apart#i think part of it is that they’re all off having lives and being social in ways i want to be but can’t because i shafted myself with work#instead of camping with my family i’m stuck alone at work. while the rest of them have fun.#it’s just that longstanding feeling of being left out. being the last person anyone would ask to join something.#and apparently i just subconsciously put myself in situations where i remove the opportunity for exclusion#i exclude myself in advance#that’s a hangup from high school. from people being friendly but i didn’t have friends#i was the last person invited to anything.#i think the worst though was when the other girl with my name in the class couldn’t go to a movie night#so they asked me to come so that they would have someone with my name there. and i went. because i was so desperate to belong#and you know what? i never ever belonged. i was a laughing stock. pretty sure everyone thought i was pathetic

i love looking back at old writing i've completely forgotten about and squinting at it like. damn. whoever wrote this shit was pretty good
#gandalf voice 'i have no memory of this place'#inspired by me looking back at stuff i apparently wrote for a creative writing class a few semesters ago and have no actual memory of#i'm really not trying to be all full of myself. but sometimes i write really good shit and it's a nice little reminder that. yeah#this is something i'm good at and enjoy doing. too bad fiction writing is such a hard career to pursue#alex’s inane ramblings#i really need to. actually create a portfolio or some shit#fun fact this is how i differentiate between what i'm actually invested in#i'm an english major and graphic design minor but i've never really actively done any design work. just for fun#i will write for fun though. fairly regularly

summer winter reading/writing/arting tag
Thank you so much for tagging me @thealterscrolls in your post, you know I love an excuse to overshare about things I like and/or are working on. Though, I'll be nice and keep each list to a maximum of 8 cause otherwise I would go overboard and that would make this already long post longer than necessary. Alright, let's get into it:
Describe one creative WIP project you're planning to work on over the summer: No summer for me for a while but hey, winter for me personally is a great time to work on stuff cause excursions outside the house are at a minimum, and I don't have to feel bad about being inside all day when the sun's already going down at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Anyway, I'm hoping to work on my In the Absent Place prequel slash companion fic focusing on Jake and the events that lead into that story. It's been an idea I've wanted to do for months and I have indeed started on it but I keep getting distracted from it by other ideas and fandoms (and also working on zine fics). But I do want to finish it. I also have a fic for The Owl House and one for Wolf 359 that I keep coming back to (aka the fics that have been distracting me), so we'll see if I ever get round to finishing those.
Recommend a book: When it comes to reading books, I am both very easily entertained (I rarely give out 1 or 2 stars) and extremely reserved with what I consider a great book, to me at least. I have given only a few books 5 stars. These are those few books: • 'Project Hail Mary' by Andy Weir • 'Piranesi' by Susanna Clarke • 'Loveless' by Alice Oseman • 'Radio Silence' by Alice Oseman • 'Elatsoe' by Darcie Little Badger • 'Good Omens' by Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett • 'The Witch's Heart' by Genevieve Gornichec • 'His Dark Materials' series by Philip Pullman
Recommend a fic: There are so many great fics I've read that are lost to time because I'm stupid and rarely bookmark stuff (it's that same 5 star problem, y'see). But here's some I have bookmarked or remember really liking: • 'Mens Rea' by yellow_caballero (Moon Knight) • 'the dotted line' by zippe (Moon Knight) • 'An Evolving Situation' by whiskyrunner (Moon Knight, ongoing) • 'Puddlejumping' by Davechicken (Moon Knight) • 'Misguided Ghosts' by petrichorishly (Lucifer) • 'Thermotemporal Equations' by blinkytreefrog (Captain America) • 'No Echo' by sh0rtwave (Wolf 359) • 'you were the song that i'd always sing, you were the light that fire would bring' by rnelody (The Owl House)
Recommend Music: I like listening to a lot of genres, but I think indie pop is probably my go-to, so pretty much all of these will fall under that. Here are some of the songs I've really been enjoying lately: • 'Word to the Trees' by whatever mike • 'Christmas in June' by AJR • 'Kelly Time' by Owl City • 'Bite Down (Bastille vs. HAIM)' by Bastille • 'Jigsaw' by Conan Gray • 'Bloody! Bloody!' by Junie & TheHutFriends • 'Serotonin' by girl in red • 'Talking to Myself' by Will Jay
Share one piece of advice: Nothing you learn is a waste of time. Nothing. Doesn't matter how obscure or pointless it feels like it is, everything comes in handy some way or another eventually (and, hey, even if it doesn't, it can still be fun to have that knowledge). So learn! Learn whatever you want, however big or small. Learn that fictional language or lore from your favourite story. Learn about a show you've never watched from an hour long video essay. Learn about that obscure historical event you found in a Wikipedia rabbit hole at 2AM. Learn not because you have to but because you want to and because you're interested. Because no time is ever wasted when you've gained something new.
That's it for me. I'll tag @pizzee, @yellowocaballero, @theophagism, and @mockspector. Consider it my not-so-sneaky way to learn about your projects and/or favourite books/fics. ;)
#tag game#my stuff#personal#book recs#fic recs#song recs#long post#this piece of poki advice brought to from that one time in highschool that:#a) i spent a week and bit learning how to read/write in cyrillic because i liked bucky barnes and I wanted to write/say the code words#in russian (and yes I still vaguely remember how to do that; can I speak or understand russian outside of that though? haha nope)#and b) learnt the origin of the word 'robot' for a sci-fi story I was wrting for one of english classes which hardly helped with writing it#both of which came together to help me on a visual arts exam when the artwork i had to examine had 'robota' written in cyrillic#that single moment made me realise that knowledge and random facts have funny ways of helping you at the most unexpected times#so now i don't feel bad for going down rabbit holes or for learning about things that don't have any apparent practical use#also researching stuff is fun i'm sorry i'm a nerd#and yes before you ask 'radio silence' by alice oseman was 50% of the inspiration behind the itap(listening to silence on the radio) title#it's on my bookshelf. i looked at it. went hm. okay. i think i can work with that

Y’know, I wanna learn to forgive and let things go but I also wanna hunt down the ballet teacher who demanded I remove my 3-year-old daughter from her COMMUNITY COLLEGE ballet class 22 years ago (which made the poor lil thing cry), so I can tell her off properly for being an authoritarian, self-important, delusional big fish in an infinitesimal pond with no concept of fun or of what a child is and tell her to pirouette her New York ballet washout self straight to Hell.
#used to love ballet#then i took ballet#and even after seeing that hellscape#and quitting at 13#i though Doodle would enjoy a baby class#surely they just have fun at 3#I thought anyway#no apparently rigidly complaint#preschoolers are what’s demanded#go pound sand you hateful#blond cow of a person#honestly ballet itself needs to crash and burn#for what it puts its people through

Speaking of the Vietnamese wiki pages- LOOK AT THIS!! LOOK AT THIS???
It’s a clusterfunk of a page.
It’s titled “Con sua” (the general word for jellyfish), but the page seems to talk specifically about Scyphozoa? But the orders (That’s what I think “Cac bo” is referring to) are... intelligible.
There are 3 extant orders in Scyphozoa as of late, that being orders Coronatae, Semaeostomeae, and Rhizostomeae. Order Rhizostomeae, despite being widely eaten and somewhat popular around East and Southeastern Asia, is absent from here. Two mysterious orders I haven’t even heard about are here as well, for some reason???
Anyways, searching them up on the English google didn’t get me anything exactly, but these seem to coincide with extinct fossil groups that have been speculated to be in class Scyphozoa at some point... (the wiki itself tells me this as well with some bits that I put through a translator lol)
#mun rambles#jellyfish#this is why i often say to look through wikis of different languages#there is so much neat information you can learn hahaaa#also fun fact in don't starve: wickerbottom refers to the jellyfish as Medusozoans#which is funny because Medusozoa encompases Classes Hydrozoa Scyphozoa and Cubozoa#and staurozoa i think#most experts could probably tell a rhizostomid jelly from a scyphozoan jelly i think#idk it's just interesting that she decided to go broad instead of specific#i suppose there really isn't any real-world equivalent for a rainbow rhizostomid jellyfish#though apparently the lizard-tail jelly is a bit rainbow like... hmm#haha#i will stop talking now

math prof is a terrible lecturer but that aside he took this first week to go over reading/interpreting + plotting 3d graphs (+ cross sections & contour plots) which is good! if you dont get those things youre fucked! but oh my god it is so unbelievably mind numbingly soul crushingly boring.
#i alreadyyy knowwww thissssssssssss can we get to the fun stuff pleaseeeeeeee#he also focuses on formal definitions w/o any colloquial explanations which i think is a shame#like looking around the room having had class w some of these people is like. professor i dont think everyone here has heard of sets before#apparently his exams are easy though so whatever#im making this post instead of doing homework 👍#cae speaks

Adhd will strike you with the sudden urge to hear cascadia’s every time we touch played on a mini harp and you cannot rest until you find a video of the closest thing you can
#emma posts#i then proceeded to search and only find it on full size harps#I want to see someone going hard at cascadia with a fucking lute or whatever. okay?#the full size harp sounds good too though#I just want to know if you can do it on one of those small harps that fit in your lap#my grandparents bought one on vacation awhile ago and now that I’m an adult they let me mess around with it#and I’ve become obsessed. I want to play the small harp. I know nothing but I’m fascinated and freestyling it has been super fun#i want to see if people who know what they’re doing have done this song specifically because it feels like it would translate so well#I don’t even think it’s my fascination with bardcore this time. this song just sounds legit like it suits the instrument#I took classes on several instruments as a kid because I love music but I can’t fucking read musical notes well and kept giving up#the closest I got to being good at playing something by reading was the recorder which isn’t… very exciting#I did decent at piano until the books stopped showing the letters inside the notes and it started to feel like decoding something instead of#reading. and it was hard to play and decode at the same time#my music teachers didn’t like when i would write the letter on top of each note in my own music books! because apparently it’s not really#reading the books. so I’ve given up on instruments for years now. but some are fun to play around with and apparently I don’t sound BAD so 🤷
