#but i thought it was cool

[crispiestchickentendie]

Ok so I’ve never posted art here but as some of you may know I do in fact listen to Chonny Jash and I started listening to him in like August? September? But only on Spotify so I had a vague idea of the story and the music but nothing else. When I realized that HMS were all characters I had thoughts of what they would look like before I saw anyone else’s designs of them aside from a cosplay I saw on TikTok. So I decided to draw them how I thought they looked like with barely any context on their actual appearances

Here are said drawings

Small gift for @themelvorganization I really liked their comic, so I decided to make this in picrew. The link to the picrew is https://picrew.me/en/image_maker/1349935/complete?cd=Zgsw711EpD if anyone wants to try it out! All the Melvins are from their comic EXCEPT for SK Melvin. He's from my au.

In honour of manifesting international dates for tourdust 2024 (2ourdust 2 furious), here's a snippet of Pete's email interview with a publication in Korea about their upcoming performance in 2009. (source.)

[T/N: May contain errors, I am not a professional by any means.]

Q: After debut, Fall Out Boy has been rising in popularity world wide, what do you think fans are enthusiastic about?  

Pete: There’s two things, and one is Patrick’s voice. His voice is different from that of other young rock band’s vocalists in tone and feel. Second thing is that we go to various different countries to play shows. Fans want to see bands perform in person at concerts, but in many cases, bands can’t do so.

Q: How to define Fall Out Boy’s music. From punk to heavy metal, it even merges hip hop. 

Pete: People call us “pop punk, punk rock,” but it’s difficult to say which genre it really is. Just as it’s difficult for you to define who you are. 

Q: You can feel the sense of wit when you listen to Fall Out Boy’s music. How do you make music?  

Pete: Haha, that’s a secret… To be honest, I don’t know how I come up with ideas for lyrics either. Because it just comes out. But for Patrick, he seems to get ideas for music from his experiences. 

Q: Over the years, You’ve worked with many musicians including Elvis Costello, Lil Wayne, John Mayer, Jay-Z and Babyface. Any fun anecdotes? 

Pete: It’s always an honor to work with great musicians. At first, we were worried that we’d get rejected if we asked them to participate in our albums. But thankfully, everyone agreed readily and we had a good time working together. Elvis Costello, in particular, amazed us with his charisma the moment he walked into the studio, but it was good to hear his secrets on having a long lasting career while still having fun making music. I think he’s a really cool musician. 

Q: Any words for Korean fans eagerly waiting for the concert in Korea? 

Pete: I’m sorry that it took so long for us to go to Korea. As it’s our first concert in Korea, we’re also looking forward to it. It’s very exciting to be able to go to Korea. I’m looking forward to meeting you soon and having a fun time!

I love that humans in the real world all wear darker and muted colors (at least for the most part) which makes Barbie and Ken stand off even more and look unreal

I understand that tall men are our POV characters, but surely being like a foot taller than everyone around them would have some occasional consequences

my mom loves to lie and like she always swears she was NEVER homophobic or anything to me as a child “i even have a gay work friend” but a really funny memory resurfaced recently where i asked if i could use birthday money i had to buy a rainbow flag when i was like ??? 7?? because i LOVED rainbows. and she said no that means something Evil and god will hate you . so what did i do. but ask my grandmom for a rainbow sweater for christmas and proceed to only wear that sweater for three years when it got cold because i didnt like the idea that god hated colors and i wanted to challenge him

Yall wanna hear a kinda funny, kinda sad story about my grandmother and hetero-normativity?

Ok, so... when my grandmother was in her 50s (I was an infant), she met a woman at the Unitarian Church. And, as can happen when you meet your soul mate, this event made it impossible for her to deny parts of herself that she had fiercely hidden her whole life.

All the drama- their affair being found out, the divorce with my grandfather, the court battle over who got the house, happened while I was a baby. Even in my earliest memories, it's just Mama Jo and Oma, and my grandfather lived elsewhere (first his own apartment, then a nursing home, then with us.)

But here's the thing- no one ever explained any of this to me. No one ever sat down and was like "hey, Rosie, so do you know what a lesbian is?" It was the 90s. It was Texas. I think my mom was still kinda processing all this, and just assumed that like... I was gonna figure it out. Don't mention it, let it just be normal. Like I think my mom thought that if she explained the situation, she would be making it weird? I dunno.

But like. In the 90s, in all the movies I had seen and books I had read, do you know how many same sex couples I had seen? Like. 0. Do you know how many "platonic best friend/roommates" I had seen? A lot. I had no context, is what I'm saying.

I literally thought this was a Golden Girls, roommates, besties situation until I was like...I dunno, 11? 12?

It was actually their parrot, an African Grey named Spike, imitating my grandmothers voice saying "Johanna, honey, it's getting late", that triggered the MIND BLOWN moment as I realized that *there's only one master bedroom and it only has 1 waterbed* when all the pieces finally clicked.

Anyway. I think it's a real important thing for kids to know queer people exist, for a lot of reasons, but also because kids can be clueless and it's embarrassing to have your grandmother be outted by a parrot because everyone just thought you'd figure it out on your own.

Anyway, here is my grandma and her wife, my Oma, after they moved to Albuquerque to be artsy gay cowboys and live their best life. They helped run a "Lesbian Dude Ranch" out there (basically just with funding and financial support. As Oma has explained "traditionally, most lesbians don't have a lot of money" so they wrote the checks and let the younger ladies actually run the ranch.)

watching ally beardsley transition over the past five years has been really wonderful and affirming but also hilarious. they went from looking like siobhan to looking like brennan. truly the entire anglo-saxon spectrum of gender.
