there's a song i heard once, while showering, in 2019, on a music application i no longer use, which was streaming out songs at random. It had a really strong, thumping rhythm. i think it was fast enough you coulda done CPR to it, or maybe just slightly slower. all i remember of the lyrics was that it said once, or perhaps several times "on a row-boat" thump thump thump thump thump (👈 the quick rhythm). it had that kind of alt, indie, folksy feeling to it that a lot of music i listened to then (and now) had. sorta like Blitzen Trapper
when i heard it in the shower i had that odd sort of "i don't like this song now, but if i hear it again i'll probably start to like it" feeling that happens to me fairly frequently. i made a note to myself to look at the recently played songs on the application, and write that one down, and to listen to it again because why not enjoy music! why not!
well, i was showering to get ready for class. i left. i forgot to check. the song has vanished into the cracks of digital algorithms that have probably been replaced and retooled several times over by this point. as i remember it, i start remembering my memory of it, recalling not the original listening of it, but my recollection of recalling remembering listening to it, and the fragment of song i have, no matter how small, gets more distorted, gently warped to accommodate my musical taste (which is itself, impermanent, ever-changing) more and more over time.
THIS is only notable because every time i tell friends and family about this song, the reaction is nearly unanimously "oh, let me try finding it" and various music apps are searched for any song mentioning a row boat in any capacity. a few months ago, i told my family, and we spent an hour after dinner where everyone took turns playing songs which mentioned row boats (some very good) while i listened for a moment before saying, over and over "no—it Thumps. the song Thumps."
and it has occurred to me that at some point, the song will be lost to me entirely (which is not a huge loss! i did not like the song Yet. i only felt the potential to like it, the same way I feel about New York, I Love You But You're Bringing Me Down by LCD Soundsystem) either because i have forgotten it entirely, or because my memory has created a new song which i like a little more, but which has never existed, so that if somebody ever properly found the song and played it for me, or I came across it myself, i might only passingly consider its familiarity before dismissing it as pale imitation, perhaps inspired by the Definitely much better song i am looking for (which does not fully exist, even in my own head.)
#rare personal post#this is not bad btw its very funny#my memory is not air tight but thats fine it doesnt need to be#and genuinely it was sweet when my family all tried their best to help me on this extremely doomest quest to find a song i heard once#five years ago#this does not matter to anything at all i just needed to jot it down somewhere and tumblrs public diary format is so convenient

The other night, I had a dream about Lieutenant Lesaro. I was standing on a slope. In front of me was a field of wheat, unripened and still very pale green. To my right was an old farm, the kind of farm that has been lived in since the 1700s, the cracks in the walls visibly plastered over even from a distance. Gui was standing next to me, in black jeans and a black leather jacket.
The sun was setting.
He turned towards me, his hands reached for mine and held them between his. I remember in the dream actually feeling the warmth of his hands. The sun cast his skin gold, his eyes were illuminated warm and clear, like syrup. He didn't say anything but I had the strongest sense he was telling me he would wait. For as long as it took.
#every now and then I have these really vivid dreams#i had one about Capitán Salazar#five years ago#that i still remember in detail to this day#and now i've had this one about Gui#what is my subconscious really telling me though?#i mean apart from telling me that Guillermo Lesaro is Hot as F#which I already knew

making money from a queer couple that you’ve teased for years at this point while simultaneously canonizing multiple het couples & hiding behind the excuse of slow burn is textbook queerbaiting btw. definitions expand with the movement of media: crwby + rooster teeth are not queer creatives that have to fight homophobic networks for representation to be made.
glad we had this talk fndm.
#rwby#rwde#queerbaiting in media#queerbaiting#ais.txt#for reference that jacket came out like 2 - 3 years ago.#they were beginning to lean into bees properly like#FIVE years ago#half a decade!#everything else about this ship aside#stop accusing other queer people of being cishet#bc they're pointing out that the actual cishet people are co-opting queer shit#for money#especially when said cishet people have actively been queerphobic#or did we all just forget the fugz nickname? cause people in crwby did that.

Nearly five years ago, an intelligent, impassioned man by the name of Jon Stewart spoke on behalf of all 9/11 responders to a representative - and partial - panel of congressmen. It was strong. It was sad. It was damning. And it was telling. Watch it:
youtube
At the time - the latter half of the Trump presidency - Mitch McConnell was the Republican Majority Leader in the Senate...
McConnell was notorious for his uncompromising actions on issues that bolstered Republican stances and thwarted all others. And the 9/11 responders were Not. His. Problem...
Are you still reading this?
At the 5:50 mark of Stewart's address, Jon singles out a Mr Johnson - who is currently Speaker of the House Mike Johnson - for belittling the issue, for blowing them off, and for doing nothing, which was how all Republicans were falling in line at the time...
In terms of actual work for the good of the people, Mike Johnson was singled out for his do-nothing demeanor back then, just as he has proven himself to be do-nothing today. And Jon Stewart just continues to be prescient!
Stewart's speech worked wonders, eighteen YEARS after 9/11, and after the matter spent most of the Trump presidency getting absolutely no consideration at all...
It's been five years since then, and they - like Jon - keep telling us who they are!
[EDIT] I'm changing my tags. Instead of using mostly keywords from what is written, I'm going to experiment with tags that maybe share some appeal. Wish me luck!

every once in a while i go back and reread my old abandoned fic that’s been making me cringe for years and years and this last time i did it i was half cringing but then a new thing of like. remembering how much fun i had writing it. how even though the tone is so off in so many places a lot of the humor is still kinda funny. almost wanting to draw some things from it. anyway the point of this post is to say i am so so annoyed that a fanfic i both started and abandoned in middle school is what has given me the drive to start working on atbb again
#trousled rambles#cannot emphasize enough that i started that fic literally six years ago#and abandoned it#five years ago#its so weird though because it feels like something's shifted and now as cringe as it is i have a weird fondness for it#and all of its out of place mainstream emo band references very clearly written by a 12 year old#you can even see the things i carried from it over to atbb#like damn i kinda almost. wanna write something like that again#just with more structure#and an actual plan this time#and no spartacus scene#hey. hey brain? whats going on in there

I made a little side blog to post about music and maybe post some music fan art because sometimes you hear a song about a cowboy that's never seen the ocean but god he wants to so he gets up and goes and it completely changes your whole outlook on everything like yeah.....YEAH!!!!! go to the ocean cowboy!!!! I believe in you!!!!!
#i didnt actually make a new sideblog this was a blog i had from awhile ago#that was just. empty. and i might as well use it for something! like live blogging variety shows that these two musicians showed up on#five years ago

Had one of those moments of knowing how Yukari Yakumo must feel about 50% of the time tonight.
You put in obvious, silly jokes, and yet people *still* take your little diagrams that break the 4th wall seriously...

The problem with trying to get somebody into Symphogear is that it requires a certain tolerance level for Anime’s specific kind of Anime Bullshit.
Fortunately, my mom will readily identify herself as a Fate/Stay Night fan, so she’s already past that threshold.
#the fact that that’s on Netflix now and my mom has seen it will never stop being funny to me#bc was I was in my Peak Weeb Phase you had to be a certain level of Online to even know it existed at all#anyway i finally got around to Symphogear after my sister reccing it to me#checks watch#five years ago#maybe?#it is indeed My Shit#Yes Kat I know I still need to read Young Wizards but consider#I should Not do so at the moment unless you want me to pester you about crossovers#wherein the principle characters have mecha-style magical girl outfits powered by karaoke#bc I guarantee I will find a way if prompted
