oh on the topic of chappell roan i wanna talk about how i think the discourse about mlm ship content featuring "good luck babe" is dumb.
yes the song itself is about a lesbian whose ex girlfriend is in a compulsory heterosexual relationship, and as such wlw relationships and womanhood and femininity will always be intrinsically relevant and crucial to the song's meaning and importance (especially concerning the phrase, "you're nothing more than his wife", as the status of being "just his wife" is much different from the status of being "just her husband" in a cultural & social sense), but mlm also experience compulsory heterosexuality and thus may heavily relate to the song; and personally, i don't think it's such a bad thing that they relate to it.
i feel like i should also mention that i'm not specifically only talking about cisgay men either; trans men (both binary and nonbinary) also experience the social pressure of feeling as if they need to "prove" they're "real men", which is often equated with being in a heterosexual relationship, and from what i've seen in my own experience online it's become normal for others to mock and belittle men for "never having felt a woman's touch" or getting "no bitches" (among other vaguely comphet & misogynistic "haha funny meme" statements). additionally, men are still relentlessly bullied for being gay. for as many allies and fictional mlm enjoyers there are, there's 10 more school bullies that harass their peers for their sexuality, 10 more parents who kick their sons out for trusting that their family will accept them for who they are, and 10 more dudebros that regularly make homophobic jokes to the discomfort of their closeted friends. even men in mlm relationships are forced into traditional heterosexual roles by others' expectations; i.e., the "who's the man in the relationship" question, the expected/"ideal" mlm couple being a feminine twink and a masculine "real" man (especially when one of the men in the relationship is trans)
in my opinion, i think that while chappell roan's music is heavily based off of being a lesbian and being in relationships with other women (since she is one herself), it's also representative of the general queer experience, and thus relating to it and making art dedicated to it shouldn't be reserved for just one group of people. no amount of animatics or edits posted on twitter or tiktok or anywhere can erase the original context of the song.
additionally if you don't like when people make such content featuring the song, you can just opt to ignore it or block the person who created the content rather than calling them "misogynistic" or "lesbophobic" for relating to a song. it takes much less time and effort.
#scary crane rambles#not fandom#let's get serious#im not tagging this im scared lol#but yeah contrary to popular belief men can be ''nothing more than his wife'' too. especially trans men#god the horror stories i've heard of trans men getting with ''bi'' cis men and being pressured into identifying as feminine/female#yes i understand why people are upset about this kind of thing happening to this song but you gotta understand that like#if you dont wanna see that you can JUST GO LISTEN TO THE ORIGINAL SONG!!!! BECAUSE ITS SO OBVIOUSLY ABOUT WLW!!!!#also there's the obligatory ''men can be abused in relationships too and are also oppressed by the patriarchy via societal expectations''#but mostly i just think that bullying artists for relating to a song and wanting to impose it on their blorbos is needlessly petty and crue#please channel your love for wlw representation in mainstream media into something more productive#like. make an animatic or fanfic based off the song with your favorite wlw ship!!!!! i'd love to see it!!#there's always more demand for wlw ships in fandom so please PLEASE go for it#just don't harass anyone. please just be nice. please just let people be who they are and create the art they want to#im so sick of personal discomfort being disguised as moral outrage it genuinely makes me so unbelievably sad

EXHIBITIONISM: LUFFY x Y/N
original idea by @thevirtualvalentine 💕 thank you so much for letting me play with this scenario! it sparked something sexy in me and i dont think im the same after ☠️
(cw: exhibitionism, sex, dirty talk, slut/whore/bitch, dom!luffy, handcuffs/chains)
(a/n: hhhnnngggg im sooo normal so normal)
Songs: "Sexy Villain" by Remi Wolf
words: 1.5k
“There she fucking is,” Luffy pants, marveling at the sounds you’re making, his hand around your throat. “Thought ya’d never speak up.”
You whimper, moaning against the bars of your cell. Your hands are cuffed in front of you, like Luffy’s, but he’s using the chain of his to pull your hips back against him as he fucks you. The iron digs into your stomach, your torso left bare for all of Udon to see. Jeers come from the neighboring cells.
“No fair! Why don’t we get to see her!?”
“Yeah, make some noise! We wanna hear ya cum!”
“Scream for us, girlie!”
And other profanities are shouted your way. Even the guards are palming themselves at their posts. Your blood boils, anger fighting with lust as the infamous Mugiwara no Luffy fucks you like a toy.
“Ah, fuckin’ listen to them,” Luffy moves from choking you to playing with your tits, pinching harshly at your sensitive nipples. You cry out, and immediately bite your lip. A roar of encouragement comes from your fellow prisoner audience.
“S’hot, isn’t it baby?” He leans forward to lick the shell of your ear. His tongue is hot and strong, just like the rest of him. He sucks at your neck possessively. “‘M takin’ ya home with me,” he murmurs, palming your tits before sliding his hands down to grip your waist. His pace quickens. “Every pirate needs a whore, hah? And the king deserves the best, dontcha think?”
His pace is rapid, now, approaching the first of many climaxes for the night. This has become a sort of routine, with you two. It had started as just flirting, both of you skipping hands over knees, pressing elbows into sides, as you passed each other doing “chores” for the guards.
Then kissing started, snuggled together as much as you could be on the cell floor. And then fucking.
When Luffy fucks, he fucks loud.
It wasn’t a secret for very long, before the surrounding cellmates heard you two going at it like hungry wolves.
And then the cheering started.
It’s a nightly show, almost, kept under wraps by the guards who are too horny to get the two of you to stop. If anyone gets near the cell bars anyway, Luffy fends them off with a wave of conqueror’s haki. And he never lets them touch you during the day. Devil fruit or no, there’s no way he’s letting them get their disgusting hands on you.
Oh, they can jerk off and jeer, for all Luffy cares, but they’re not allowed to touch you. You’re his whore, he decided the first moment you brushed your knuckles along the back of his hand, passing by him in the dusty path. He had felt an electric jolt of want course through him, and one touch of his haki told him you felt the same. It wasn’t long before the two of you started fucking every night.
Now, he slaps your ass with the flat of his hand. Somehow still flexible in his cuffs, he lands another slap, and then another. He lets the dogs outside watching call out a count: all the way to ten. Your ass cheek is tingling. Luffy leans forward again, caressing the spot that now bares his handprint. “Ready for the other side? Hm?” He grins, biting at your ear. “How ‘bout ten more this time?”
You whimper, wiggling your hips back against his pelvis. He slows his pace, just for a bit, letting you fuck yourself back onto his cock. You’re so desperate, for this.
“Yes, sir~!” You moan out, already drunk on the attention. He grunts.
“Hear that?” He asks the crowd, raising his voice enough to be heard, “She wants the other side, now!”
And Luffy spanks your ass twenty times for them. He’s not cruel: he doesn’t hit the same exact spot twice in a row, but god you’re gonna be sore tomorrow. “And it’s captain, bitch,” he murmurs in your ear.
“Yes, captain!” You moan almost immediately, closer to cumming than you’ve ever felt in your life. Your blood is running hot—hotter than fire—and Luffy’s chaotic thrusts are only bringing you closer and closer toward your delightful, little death.
“‘M cumming! ‘M cumming!” You manage out, gripping onto the sweaty bars in front of you. “Thank you Luffyyy!” He cackles behind you, speeding up just enough to tip you over the edge. Your eyes roll back, rocked to your core by a violent, sucker punch of an orgasm.
“Good girl,” he soothes, slowing down for you, “Such a good job for me, pretty,” he turns you around, cupping your face softly in both hands. He presses your back against the bars, cold metal stinging your exposed skin. You’re flushed, panting, and Luffy is grinning like the sun. His smile stretches halfway across his face, and you have no choice but to meet him with a soft smile of your own. (He’s too handsome for his own good).
It doesn’t take you long to figure out Luffy knocked out the surrounding voyeurs. There’s nothing but snoring, now. He laughs, running a hand through his hair as he backs up away from you. You lean back against the bars, yourself. Your legs feel like jelly. You meet his eyes from across the room, hazy and dark like glinting jewels. You cock an eyebrow.
“So, when are we getting out of here, captain?”
He grins.
****
It turns out to be tomorrow afternoon, in fact.
He scales the sheer cliff face with ease, having knocked out any potential threats with a sophisticated blow to their energetic awareness. Several guards slump over beneath you, spears still loosely grasped in their clumsy fists.
Luffy starts snickering almost immediately, your arms wrapped around his neck as he carries you like a backpack. “Was just waitin’ for the right time,” he tells you, cheeks flushed with exertion. You hop up another few feet, bouncing on his back a bit as he scales the cliff.
Your chest is pushed up against his back, with your legs wrapped around his thick torso. His build is sturdy, his strength immeasurable, and you feel almost at peace—like a baby koala.
You tell him as much, and he laughs.
“S’cute,” he huffs, reaching up to grab another jutting handhold in the rock face. “Ya like being my baby?”
You grin, tucked between his shoulder blades. Your lips move against his skin: yes. Your ratty t-shirt presses into him, absorbing his heat and warming you through. The night air sends chills down your spine, but only just. Luffy’s like a radiator, climbing with you on his back. He hums.
“Like having ya as my baby,” he continues, jumping upward several feet. You gasp, but he lands with both feet firmly planted against the rock face. His hands scrabble for a landing, loosely grasping at stone, before you start to tip backwards.
You shoot out your hand before you can think: gravity pulling at your stomach and twisting harshly. “No,” you hiss, gripping the stone in front of you so hard your fingers bruise. You grit your teeth against the sharpness of the stone, holding your weight long enough for Luffy to get a hold on the cliff face himself. Three quarters of the way there.
He pants. “Thanks.”
“No problem,” you mutter, and hide your face between his shoulder blades.
He climbs the rest of the way, and neither of you have another problem scaling the sheer wall surrounding Udon’s base. Luffy sighs, landing on his stomach once he pulls both of you up onto the ledge. You unwrap your limbs from his sweaty, shaking body before crawling off to collapse on your own.
“Cmon,” he croaks, grabbing your hand, “Can’t stop now.”
So you get up, and start walking.
All the way back to his ship.
****
After the war (which you sorta help with, in your injured, post-prison state) he takes you back to his ship for good.
“Here she is!” Luffy laughs, collapsing on the deck of his warship. “Our new crewmate!”
Usopp eyes you warily, slingshot clutched in his fist. “Wh-what’s her job?”
Luffy sits up, smiling. “She’s my girlfriend!”
You stare at him, blankly. He’s never mentioned that to you, nor has he ever used something so sweet to refer to you. "Whore" is usually more like it.
He stretches out a rubber arm to wrap around your waist. He brings you over onto his lap, grinning like a monkey. “She’s got the best—“
“Okay,” you slap his arm, cutting him off, “They don’t need to know the specifics.”
He stops, but only just.
His eyes are glimmering with mischief.
****
It’s not long before he’s pounding you into the mattress of his sweaty bed.
You’re crooning out sounds you never thought possible, with his monstrous speed and elongated rubber cock. He’s better than a vibrator, you think.
Luffy slaps your ass. “Atta girl,” he preens, “Let em hear ya.”
He’s an exhibitionist outside of prison, as well.
So are you.
So you scream and cry on his dick, letting Captain Luffy know just how much you need it.

Hi. I don’t know if I’ve requested here before, but I have a (semi) great idea.
The rundown is somehow Caine found a karaoke machine! This leads to an iha where everyone + reader and Caine sing. (Honestly I just want to see what you’d think they’d sing).
Thank you!❤️❤️
KARAOKE TIME IN THE CIRCUS!
quick warning that you guys are about to be exposed to my music taste because i rarely ever listen to songs that dont fit my tastes so uh uh theres your warning, i know i have a warning somewhere on my acc where i say OOC is a possibility but i think it will really shine through here short post since its just me dropping what song i think each character would sing + links! this actually reminds me, ive had an IHA idea where its basically a musical episode where everyone cant talk, only sing but idk what the actual adventure itself would be and how music would tie in shrugs
CAINE:
as much as i wanna say hello world by louie zong, because AI stuff and bc ive been listening to it for the past hour on loop, i feel like that would be too on the nose and even completely out of character. so instead i suggest jerryterrys version of the boys are back in town
for one i am absolutely obsessed with jerryterrys version of the song above, as well as kiss me (kill me), i highly recommend you guys check out the music videos and put together the lore (CW for body horror in kiss me kill me, though!)
but like, my brain juices are flowing, like. i can see him singing the original, but imagine how unnerving it would be (assuming caine is actually going to be an antagonist) for the words to just. change and come out wrong in front of everyone
also i just want an excuse to gush about jerryterry
i love when people make song covers that sound like the original but theres something so terribly wrong
actually i love songs like that in general
caine gets two, because i can also see him singing charlie's inferno
POMNI:
oddly enough i can see pomni being into vocaloid and/or songs from anime. maybe its because her voice actor has voiced someone in JJBA and that fact is plaguing my mind, but i can now distinctly hear pomni singing some of my favorite songs in these genres... alas i dont have a set song in mind: so i will give you a song that does not fit the above at all, everyones favorite classic; come along with me from AT
JAX:
i give him, the main character by will wood because i can definitely see him singing this to be a little shit as well as genuinely. kind of seeing him enjoy the song
not much to say here since im not totally sure what jax would listen to :(!
RAGATHA:
okay i know i just brought up jerryterry's kiss me kill me, but that reminded me of the original kiss me because it does give me ragatha vibes
KINGER:
stumped on kinger, but first song that comes to mind is able by jack stauber i have nothing to explain this, but i will partially blame me listening to jack stauber a lot to be the reason
ZOOBLE:
cant explain this one either, i think its the tone of the voice but also im getting back into the scary jokes and
yeah
anyways icicles by the scary jokes , i can just see it
GANGLE:
okay so this one is less of a "i can see gangle singing this" and more of a "this makes me think of gangle" but imma put it here anyway since i dont have any other ideas for her !
today today by jack stauber

do you have any tmbg songs you DISlike...i have trouble hating but some people can manage a least favorite
This is a great question please by all means send me more random questions about my tmbg opinions for my train ride home im always horribly desparate to talk about them honestly ummmm let's see there's not a lot of tmbg songs I dislike but off the top of my head i dont care for bastard wants to hit me...also I know that this is going to be a really hot take so I wanna say I'm sorry but as far as more recent stuff I always skip I lost Thursday I know I'm sorry please don't get mad at me but theres just something about it I don't really vibe with.... for some reason even though I usually mostly like almost all their new songs a lot including and especially john flansburgh originals but i skip that song a lot hmmmmm oh another one I have a problem with is with the dark ONLY because I Love love love the original acoustic version so much that the album version feels like a disappointment to me.... um this is a hard question looking through the songs it's hard cos I'm really so whipped for them it's hard for me to even find stuff I don't enjoy on some level I enjoy everything on some level. Even songs that are a bit too silly for me or theres something about them i dont love i at least appreciate they were having fun you know. Okay here's a confession I admit I used to be someone who skipped the Joshua fried remix of the worlds address but I've come around on it recently in a MAJOR way and now I fuck with it extremely heavily and really regret never giving it the time of day before... and ummm hmm yeah that's all I got. I'm also not someone who really listens to any of their kids stuff at all except for one or two songs so there you go as well. If I think of a song I really hate I'll let you know

Saw a post about MCR mention foundations of decay and I wanna ramble!
I will be honest when I first heard the song on the radio, I definitely didnt think it was bad, but I wasnt immediately hooked. Its a little slow to pick up and without being able to hear the lyrics it didnt do much for me... But hey its new MCR! so I vowed to give it another go, and Oh Those Lyrics
I didnt immediately look them up, but the song slowly grew on me to the point where I had listened to it a bunch and still couldnt understand some of them, and Im so glad I did look them up, a lot of the ones I couldnt/couldnt quite hear are really important.
My favorite one is "take his body as a relic to be canonized // and so he gets to die a saint but she will always be the whore" which Genius claims is a reference to the whore of Babylon, which I didnt know about (raised in a "progressive" church that didnt deal much with that un-PC stuff). It gets at a big reason Ive always disliked The Church and *part* of why I eventually left (misogyny), and it evokes relics (pieces of the bodies of saints) which, though historically significant, as a big proponent of bodily autonomy even in death, are really weird to me.
My second favorite are the references to the tower of Babel, I like that myth bc I think its funny when the bible "borrows" from other belief systems and I can see a lot of Greek-Myths-about-Human-Hubris in it. Its a pretty human story to tell, you can see it all over, and early christianity loves it bc it was still on that old testament "You Must Fear God and Never Aspire to Be Like Him" shit, BUT this one in particular just strikes me as so similar to Icarus. Trying to reach the sky but your efforts fall? Yeah
I really heavily associate this song with specifically season 4 of stranger things (to the point where I wonder if its intentional, they both came out around the same time) with the swarm/decay aesthetics, and the metal (tho obv not the same subgenre dont come at me), so I think if you like that and/or Faith by ghost youll like this song. If youve listened to both songs Im really curious: did you catch the similarity between the "faith is mine" and "against faith" lines bc when I heard it and realized I was like WAIT :O
Thanks for reading heres a meme I edited for ghost reasons! (Pls dont steal I can upload it by itself if you really want it on your blog):
ID: photo of a pet rat clenching its fists and appearing to be yelling with the words "I will not let the rot consume me" in basic font. Rot has been blacked out by me. Original watermark reads "TeaThatTast" /end ID.

I dont think ive mentioned this at any point but Im actually really obsessed elisabeth but I cant engage with it at all or even think too hard about it without feeling like Im gonna start biting people. like, ive been making a lot of tanz der vampire posts and whenever one of my original posts gets interacted with I go and check the account because Im a freak like that and surprise surprise, people who like that musical also often like elisabeth, theres one account in particular who might even recognize me because its a fairly small fandom, and whenever I look at their account Ive always completely forgotten that they post a lot about elisabeth and I get jumpscared and have to very quickly click away as my heartrate inexplicably spikes for a second. And it really sucks because one time one of the posts I got jumpscared by was this one that pointed out how deaths carriage was also rudolfs bed and I hadnt noticed that and its really neat and I would love to see more posts like that about what is basically my favorite musical ever but I cant. look at them
I think the reason my brain is so weird about letting me enjoy it is that it is rpf and also german in origin. or well its from austria but you know what I mean. And i dont know why because its not like hamilton where all the songs slap but its weirdly patriotic so i dont really wanna watch it in full ever again, not only do all the songs in elisabeth slap but its also not patriotic as a whole, like thats the reason i was able to listen to it almost every day while taking the bus to school for about three months, i couldnt do that if it was weirdly patriotic yknow. Speaking of me listening to the soundtrack almost everday for three months, whenever I would do that I would imagine these elaborate and usually very romantic animatics in my head and thats perfectly fine but god forbid i wanna read a fanfic thats just a non-musical prose version of Die Schatten Werden Länger (Reprise) because like, no offense but what other kind of fanfic could you possibly write about this musical. Or maybe I just lack imagination idk
Also, speaking of the nature of this musical as rpf, because Death is the only character thats not like, real, hes the only character that I can read or write fanfic about, like I found a fic about him intracting with the von Krolocks and I liked it so much that I wrote my own oneshot about him having a weird tender moment with Herbert and I have ideas for like 3 more, which is kinda ironic because hes the character Im the most unwell about for all the obvious reasons and usually when Im this degree of unwell about a character i can hardly stand to even think about them but I guess the fact that I can already barely bring myself to think about the musical hes from kinda cancels that out

MY THOUGHTS ON HOW THE ORIGINAL SONG TAKE ON ME BY A-HA AND THE MTV UNPLUGGED VERSION PARALLEL TOP GUN AND TOP GUN MAVERICK (blame @blazingstar29 for enabling me)
more under the cut bc its a bit long🫠
ok we all know take on me right? the upbeat 1985 song with the really cool music video. iconic. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djV11Xbc914&ab_channel=a-ha)
right so five years ago a-ha did an mtv unplugged version which i advise you to listen to bc its so inCREDIBLY GOOD I CANNOT. it takes every thing that makes the og song perfect and twists it into something that captures the essence of the original but mature and sad, like looking back at the past. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xKM3mGt2pE&ab_channel=ahaVEVO)
so
my reasons for why the og 1985 version parallels top gun
80s. basic but true.
good looking guys. also basic. also true. promise it gets more in depth
the whole vibe of the take on me video is upbeat. happy. theyre dancing around, its half animated but with pencil drawings like a teen would doodle on school books, its carefree, its goofy, its all over the place.
the music is also upbeat and happy, it makes you wanna dance and get up and vibe
combining video, music and lyrics, the song is about being young. its about being alive, having your whole life ahead of you. taking on the world, being young and in your prime and prepared to give it your all. its happy, its looking forward to the future but enjoying and loving the now. its having options, choice and freedom, to live your life how you want to.
this is what top gun is at heart. its about being young and in your prime, competing, living life to the fullest. its energy, motivation, but in the end its also growing up. its seeing the worst life can do to you (goose) and recognising it but moving on, finding comfort in your youth and letting go of your responsibilites.
its the beauty of life, of strength and just the general vibe of the 80s. friendship and love and loss and the beauty of being young. its saying ‘i have my whole life left to live, and nothing can stop me’
to understand the next part, i kinda like to thing of the ‘85 version as the soundtrack of top gun. its the 86ers song, its their vibe.
and this ones probably got more to it, my reasons why the unplugged version parallels top gun maverick
modern times. basic again
we gotta focus on the actual musicians now. its the same guys singing, just 40 years older. the same song, just looking back instead of forward. by changing the key and tempo of the song, theyve created a whole new vibe. same lyrics, same guitar, just slower. sadder. they've calmed down, lost some of their energy
the unplugged versions looks back on a life well lived instead of forwards, to a life ahead. its reflecting on all the bad things that have happened and accepting them
in the end, theyre both about acceptance. this is very important. both versions of the song are about accepting everything that life has to offer, everywhere that life can or has taken you. ‘slowly learning that life is ok’
except, where ‘85 version is eagerly accepting and awaiting, unplugged is sadder. not regretful, just sadder. more thoughtful. theyre older, wiser, they recognise how life has changed them, for better or worse. they dont regret their life (its no better to be safe than sorry), they just see what it as it is. lived. over. theyre out of their prime, its a new generation now.
but at the same time, its also rebellion. theyre old, not dead, they still have fight left in them (take on me, take me on). theyre still standing, a few decades hasnt changed that.
now tell me, am i describing Take On Me (MTV Unplugged) or Top Gun: Maverick?
mav regrets pulling gooses papers, but theres nothing he can do about it now. he has to accept life for what it is. he has to accept ice is dying, that hes dead. he has to accept hes old. and rooster has to accept life for what it is too. he needs to realise the past is in the past, the carole and goose are gone and mav is all he has left. Mav pulled his papers. There's nothing he can do about it now
top gun maverick is about growing up, getting old, how life changes a person. its seeing how everyone around you is older, no longer in their prime. the younger generation has centre stage now, but youre still there. your still fighting. youve made mistakes, youve fucked up but your still here bc thats how life works. You're quieter, the background to their lead, but you're still there
think of it as a cycle. in every movie theres an older generation, and a younger generation. the top gun movies focus on one of those generations, following them from young to old, and the song changes with them.
the 86ers song is take on me, and it follows them, adapting with them.
now we’re getting a bit more far fetched, but lets say the ‘22 teams song is i aint worried. its got a similar vibe to take on me, but with a 2020s twist instead of 80s synth pop. its carefree, they literally aint worried. its happy, its upbeat, it makes you wanna dance.
now we look at these songs in contrast. take on me unplugged and i aint worried are playing side by side, the older and younger generations. once upon a time, take on me had the same vibe but its grown up. and one day, i aint worried will have the same fate
one day, i aint worried will be an old timey song, the same nostalgic vibe as the og take on me has now, the same vibe as top gun has now. bc top gun is retro, its 80s. rn, tgm is new, its fancy, but it wont always be
its a cycle. its a fucking cycle. the same thing was going on in top gun 86, but with viper/jester and ice/mav/everyone else. we just dont see it, bc we're only focusing on one generation. they all parallel each other. if we we're focusing on the ‘22 team, mav and cyclone would be their viper and jester. old, important but not really. old-fashioned, out of date. but we’re not. its the 86ers story, so their song changes with them, and its what we get to see.
thank you for coming to my ted talk!! i may have gotten a bit off track towards the end there and had an existential crisis but enjoy :)
#i think i have more to say but good god i cant take it#im losing my mind#half of this is me repeating the same idea over and over#hope yall get this cuz otherwise i done messed up#gone to far into the insane#i talked to myself making this#theres hand waving accomplanying every sentence#and a lot of shaking and trembling and crying#i felt so smart making this#cant wait to read it in the morning and cringe#top gun#top gun maverick#take on me#top gun 86#tgm#this needs more tags i think but i cant be bothered to think of them#i dont think ive ever had this many coherent thoughts#living up to my high school english grades#i hope#again watch me read this in the morning and cringe#i have not proofread this#probably a bad idea#who cares were all insane anyways#alright i think i can shut up now#im rambling

i dont think i mentioned that i was going to it on here, but i did see big time rush again last night with my in-laws as well as two of their sisters. it was amazing again. loved it. if they havent stopped by your city on tour yet, they’re gonna be touring for another month. check the tour dates. if you wanna go, do it, so many people told me last year they wanted to go and didn’t, so if you can go now, do it, i can’t recommend it enough. after the show, i heard a couple guys talking to one another outside the bathrooms, presumably waiting for their girlfriends. but they were saying to one another stuff like, “yeah, my girlfriend got these tickets kinda as a joke for my birthday but that was actually really amazing.” lemme tell you, those two guys were good boyfriends that night. a guy in front of us last year sucked and was whiny and dragged his girlfriend out before the encore, and you could tell it was the type of thing where he was purposefully trying not to enjoy a good time.
i’ve also never seen a band literally stop traffic like big time rush. both times. given, we saw them in mansfield, ma, which is kind of in the middle of nowhere, and gilford, nh, which is totally and completely in the middle of nowhere. and we were a stuck in traffic last night over a mile and a half from the venue for almost an hour. the opening acts started at 7. originally we were supposed to get there at 6:56 or smth and we parked at 7:43. i dont know when the opening acts actually started, the guys came out late. we got lucky enough to miss jax’s set 🙏🤍 lol. we arrived during max’s set, and he was really good, i don’t think i’d listened to him before but he was impressive. he said in the intermission he’d be waiting to meet everyone and take pictures at the merch stand and when i got up to use the restroom and get a drink and that line was by far the biggest i;d ever seen, and i worked four years at a theme park! it was literally farther than the eye can see, and as i kept walking back it kept getting even bigger than i could imagine. i’m probably gonna queue one of his songs for the coming weeks.
and one last thing about last night...... i got a bone to pick w the brand “liquid death”. y’all make it look like it’s booze on purpose. you can sell cans of water, that’s actually a great and very ethical idea, but that branding damn well makes itself look like alcohol and the very name “liquid death.” dude. i ordered a drink and also asked for a water, and the guy grabs a can from a fridge full of beers and i’m like.... this is... water? this liquid death? cause it sounds like it’s gonna get you wasted from the name. i was tryin not to give him too hard a time and he was like, “oh yeah, you’re gonna love the taste of this stuff. it actually is just water though.” and like the first part sounded a little sarcastic so i was like “....this is for my pregnant sister-in-law” and i felt like i might’ve been giving him a hard time.... you can put beverages in cans w/o them looking as much like hard seltzer or beer or cider as possible, i’m just sayin. but i tasted a sip of it and it was fine.
#the other sil works in an elementary school and said on the way back 'yeah i saw one of my coworkers drinking one of those at work once#and i was like.... are you drinking alcohol?'#i dislike the deceptive appearance#i do keep thinking about it#but the show was great!!!!!#loved it#they played every oldie they had to as well as some deep cuts and a fair amount of new shit#the forget you now and waves performances were as show stopping as the old stuff#i love big time rush i have the best time that you will see a lesbian have at one of their shows in the middle of nowhere in new england#in that moment i think everyone was looking for a boyfriend#also i got the best hoodie#can't wait for it to be cold i'm gonna be cute as shit#big time rush#btr#7/12/2023#can't get enough tour#shut up kaily

hello!!! not sure if this seems like a stupid question (it very well may be) but i’m going to see six next year in the UK and as someone relatively new to the fandom, where do you suggest i start with properly getting into it all? any advice would be super appreciated, looking around at all the different casts is very overwhelming at first LMAO
and also, do i need to worry about six ending soon and me being too late to the party (if you would have any insight) because i feel like i’ve missed out so far and i definitely want to see it more than once 😭😭
It is not a stupid question. Joining a stablished fandom is always overwhelming. And a fandom like the one six has where it seems everyone cares at least a little about all parts of it will be way worse.
My best suggestion to get into the fandom is to just get into it but start small. So first listen to the cast album(s) the studio recording is mixed like a pop albutm but it is a great entry point, and the broadway album was recorded live and includes some parts of the dialogue. Then go check public performances: West End Live, the tonys, the jubilee, Good Morning America, the Macy's thanksgiving parade are some of the big recent ones. But just typing into youtube Six [song name/production] will give you some great things, they have done performances of everything but All You Wanna Do and I Don't Need Your Love. (Dont get into the megasix rabbithole yet)
Then go into the six website and check who is in the cast (UKT is likely to have a cast change in the spring but WE will have the same cast until at least october) then go check them out in social media or in megasix videos. While many people looks for audios most of the fandom will know the queens mainly via megasix videos. Then check the alts in different covers, and if you really like someone check their work aside from six, anything from previous and later roles to concerts to original music.
After you are familiar with the show and some queens maybe check discord servers or fan accounts and interact with people. There is no rule that says you need to follow everyone (it is just that those of us that somehow managed to get an audience in general post at least a little from everyone) you can just care about the cast you will see or see a video from a different one and like them. There will be names you here often and will probably end up being familiar with them. Also things like cover combinations, harmonies, riffs and most important costumes are big things in the fandom.
The charms of fandom include the fact that there are no rules (aside from you know being respectful). And that once you start checking things out everything else will slowly come to you until you just understand things and know exactly what you like.
As for six ending soon. I don't think so. It is a big hit in both Broadway and the West End. UKT seems to be transitioning to international tour but both US tours are going strong. Cruises will keep running for who knows how long and while Australia seems to be closing soon. Six is getting ready to open its first non english production and will probably have several more in the coming years. All shows eventually close their main productions but then live on via tours and international productions and later regional and schools. And most important the fandom. Six is bound to become an icon of musical theater and never fully go away.
#ask#I was rambling#but tldr is start small and just go for it#hope it makes sense#and feel free to add upon it

i try to have solutions for all kinds of motivation leeches, so heres mine:
too many ideas?: you sit on down, you got your supplies, but what idea do i start with? what should it be of? oh god my head's full- sound like you rn? my brain likes to function out the ideas fast, so i wanna do them all at once. first, write out every idea in word form, at detailed as needed (ie: "girl eating some icecream, cat, george washington fighting in the american revolution [no clue how george got here but fuck it we ball]"). see how much time youd estimate theyd take, write it beside them. how much time do you have to draw? dont cross off or erase, but put those ideas aside. do whatever seems easiest or the most fun for your brain then.
you can also simply sketch out bases for your other ideas and leave notes for things your sure to forget!
no ideas?: oc challenges are always an interesting one to work with, but if youd rather not look for one, you can always start with a pose! do a random pose, maybe even the one your currently in. listen to music while you work? draw based on the vibe the song gives you for the character. watch a show? mix your least fav and fav character look wise, or just draw one of them (memory is always helpful). dont do either? create a person in your head, and draw from that.
keep in mind you dont need to make it colored or anything, just have fun, and its not a sacrificable sin if you look up ideas and take inspo (just make sure to credit the original art if you post it online) from those!
too tired but wanna draw still?: draw out a base, sketchy works best. leave it out where you could see it in the morning. when you have the energy and time, go back to it. really simple, but simples all ya need!
minor inconvenience?: honestly, thats so fair. you could draw small tiny doodles till you feel better, or just write down the idea and draw it when you have the motivation/ arent upset anymore!
if any others are needed lmk and ill add more!

Haha oh ya I forgot
The reason nobody will stand behind me
I'm too controversial
Maybe that's because my positioning on topics is a perspective that integrates multiple points of view
In a healthy collective global discussion, I sure hope there's controversy
If everyone agreed on all the same ideas and nobody offered a differing perspective, well then its 1984
This is an excersize in quieting the ego to open up new ideas and ways of thinking
Often I see reflections out there in the wild suggesting that my work is notoriously misinturpreted
Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater
📸
Our interpretation of each peice of music and its message is strongly dependent on the context under which it is presented
Sometimes, very subtle changes to a playlist can completely shift the interpretation.
Sometimes I just play out a narrative for the sake of exploring a fantasy concept
I'm not a newspaper, I'm a library
If you walk into a library and see a book you don't like , you dont turn around and leave
You look around for a different book
What does this say to you?
You tell me.
What will? Neighbors think?
Last I checked, I didn't make these songs.
(Or movies, tv shows, video games, books, myths, bible verses, art pieces, or poems.)
youtube
"We agreed that the truth is the enemy of happiness".
For whom?
It doesn't botter you that you are all puppets on a string blissfully unaware that your life is a lie (thx mgmt), all you do is copy the identity, thoughts, beliefs, and original content of an indentured homeless street rat?
youtube
NOT ANYMORE.
Your very essence of life is fading away like an autoimmune disease.
What you are can't exist. It's a doomsday virus.
Luckily I have the antidote.
This ends now.
Juice cleanse for the soul. Go to rehab if you must.
Just make it stop.
You look like buffoons.
youtube
Lmao so this entire world is just designed around keeping people stupid like you so no one realizes you are dumb dumbs?
Dang.
Michael Grey. Lol what is reality.
Used to love his Nancy drew videos so funny. He's a priest interestingly.
Idk, don't you wanna be magical and evolve so you can be psychic and shit instead of being a coward and actively contributing to the world ending in a completely preventable but imminently looming manmade cataclysm?

of course hon!! i see you've started reblogging things; that's awesome! 💕
fantastic genres!! anything in particular that you've read or been reading lately that you've enjoyed?
that is so sick, tbqh! rock music is such a classic, it's hard to find someone who doesn't like it. have you ever listened to sleeping at last? it's more soft and slow, and some of the songs don't have vocals. i wish i could hear you play your guitar, i bet it's awesome.
those girls are bonkers, hon. people and their biases are so 🙄 anyone can write smut! imagine if only certain people could write specific genres. that would be remarkably boring. i bet your writing is awesome; it's fun to dabble in different styles! i need to get back to writing poetry and short stories myself. i've burnt out on working on my original works.
poetry is especially important to have that raw emotion in it. if we aren't pouring our hearts out in each stanza, then it's not going to leave a lasting impact.
even the most basic of tea preferences are important! tea can really soothe a person, even if it's just one cup. i don't think i've ever put honey in my tea, though. maybe just once? usually, i'm a sucker for some cane sugar when i want a sweeter cup.
a tea date sounds so cute!! especially as we move towards cooler weather. i hope you have the opportunity to do so in the near future 🥰
- 🐰
lemme just say it makes me SO happy to have someone who relates to me! ive always been into The Maze Runner. Newt was my mate, rooted for him till he died. Then i rooted for Minho and was thrilled when Teresa died (she was annoyin, okay?). that's a series that ill never get sick of! i just started readin the Percy Jackson series. its okay, i dont quite see all the fuss about it? maybe it gets better further in. there was one book that i haven't read in the longest. called, Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane. it was from a series. that was the only book i had and i read it over and over. also, The spiderwick chronicles is an amazing series too! its also a movie
Rock music is good, i agree. i dont think ive heard of Sleeping At Last, but ill check em out for you, darlin!
poetry is quite literally my way of life? people tend to get freaked out when they see me?? i either get compliments or complaints. in the UK people kinda shyed away from me cuz i wear eyeliner and am more what would be called 'punk'. but people here are pretty cut throat. some old man said that i was the child of Satan since i dressed like a demon? but a girl that same day said i had a "sexy slut waist"? and an old french lady called me "Yeux de sirène" or what she said was Mermaid Eyes. she said i could hypnotize anyone because my eyes are a really light blue. what i was getting at with this is, no one expects me to be as down to earth as i am? possibly because of my looks?
now, mind you im not necessarily a nature person but if im spendin time outside its because im readin, writin, or takin care of my plants! and or of course, drinkin tea like a good UKnian.
m really excited to be able to go on a tea date as well! i think its a cute idea and it would be perfect for a first date. even if im obsessing about her, i want my Doll to feel as though it isn't going too fast. even if my mind is sputtering wildly, i want to try and go slow... dont wanna freak her out? m sure ya understand, Bunny anon?
~Mal 💕

I feel like slovakia doesnt really care abt that either ?? there are definitely better and worse unis tho and i unfortunately attend the one thats one of the best so they kinda care..😔 SPEAKING EXAMS ARE THE WORST THEY SHOULD BE CANCELLED LIKE THATS 3 TIMES THE STRESS U HAVE WHEN TAKING A WRITTEN ONE. i hate those sm omg i am PRAYING for you (i have only one speaking one this semester and i am mentally preparing for it for the last few weeks) i actually passed the second try (with an E, but i still did it....) and i have another exam w the same professor this friday so..🤞
i am trying to learn how to be patient w art (and life) so it prevents me tearing everything out and throwing it out.....so you are right abt that AHAHA thats a good advice to take
as always i hope youre doing good, taking care of yourself and having a good time!! mwah

Op, i want to add on to this because I always had a similar way of Mafuyu meeting MizuSis (taking your MizuSis name for continuity)
TL;DR — I want Mafuyu to not be an only child and want said sibling to beat Mafuyu's mom in a court battle for custody of Mafuyu, maybe get a new PjSK unit with older sibling NPC's and two of their buds.
Mizane comes home for a long bisit / graduated so she doesn't have to live in overseas land anymore
Mizuki gets their Mafuyu sleepover and Mizane is like "Damn you remind me of this music major friend of mine" ; absolutely doesn't fall for the good girl thing
Nightcord is meeting up near Vivid Street the next day so Mizane tags along to meet everyone else.
Ena and Kanade are watching this super sick performer sing and even outsing Kohane for one song they both know
The non-gender conformers and their chaperone approach and listen after Kohane runs off for practice
Person performing sings two more songs, one in English and one in German. Both are covers of Japanese originating songs, and you can tell cause it doesn't scan quite perfectly, but still sounds amazing.
After performer sees Mizane and shuffles over, the super happy and excited face now almost void of all emotions (like a certain other black-purple haired person nearby) ((yes performer's hair is black-purple)) (((if you didn't know, Mafuyu technically has black hair, like ichika. Similarly to how like Kanade has white or silver hair not blue.)))
Mizane introduces the gang to the performer, who goes by Yuki.
Yuki takes one look at Mafuyu, hears just one word of the good girl persona and stops Mafuyu.
Mizane sorta confirms to Yuki with interjections by Niigo (minus Mafuyu) about the situation
Yuki just goes “so. The [more child friendly word for bitch that has the save vibe] is still that strict, huh...? I thought that was just for the failure kid she had before Mafuyu."
Niigo is all UNDERSTANDABLY CONFUSED AS SHIT
A few events later with way more Niigo and Mizane+Yuki bonding, Mizuki and Mizane find Yuki arguing with Mafuyu's mother ((we'll call her Madoka simply because i dont wanna type more than I need to))
Yuki is being called "a burden", "a terror" and other rather hurtful things by Madoka, hitting back with passive aggressive things based in truth.
Eventually, Madoka says if Yuki sees Mafuyu to not corrupt her and stay away, saying "my daughter doesn't need more terror in her life."
Yuki instantly hits back with "Follow your own advice then. Cause you're right, Mafuyu doesn't need more terror in their life and that's all you are.”
Madoka storms away, past the Akiyama's, grumbling about a "failure daughter".
Mizane just goes “so THAT'S why Yuki was wanting to know how much it would be to go to court here now. Welp."
Mizuki (And Kanade cause they were meeting up, so she appeared just in time for Yuki to walk over after seeing them) learn that Yuki is way about 15 years older than Mafuyu and is Mafuyu's disowned older sibling.
Why were they disowned? Cause music was the only thing that they were able to get any work done with and was good at, but because their mid grades were combined with "music is a distraction" despite being good at it, so because that was a bad influence on the baby Mafu, they were kicked out and legally disowned.
Yuki then legally changed their name from a "gross boring name" to Yuki.
And then it becomes Mizane, Yuki, Kanade, Ena and Mizuki vs Madoka as Yuki+Mizane go to court to prove child abuse and Niigo try to help Mafuyu adjust to the fact that she has a caring loving big sibling who wants Mafuyu to pursue music if she wants, or cut her hair if she wants or yadda yadda. Mostly Kanade, since its after the 3rd Anni and Mafuyu lives with Kanade.
Bonus stuff under the break
Bonus where Mizane pulls up old friends from the Legal Department of their overseas uni and we get a new unit with those four because Rhythm Games are known for after a while adding more units and even PjSK has set up for a few new ones that I person wanna see. Not sure what it would be called, probably something to sort of mirror Nightcord's darker vibe with a light one. Maybe Chasing Dawn at 1 or something like that. As a treat, they get only Miku to start and its a sekai originating only from Yuki. (Kind of a mirror to the Empty Sekai and Nightcord's story, but with a more positive outlook on how being abused can rarely do.)
As a small note here, while almost every case of mental abuse tends to end in a form of PTSD or trauma that hinders the victim after leaving, it can sometimes actually have the opposite effect. The victim can sometimes emerge from the abuse with a more knightly complex or even sometimes a hero one because they want to protect others from it. Essentially, different trauma responses.
Nightcord seems to focus on how getting out of negative trauma responses ((overmasking, excessive people pleasing, etc.)) are very strong and hard to break. The mirror side of that would be how ones that can be positive outwardly can be just as bad and soul breaking as the negative ones. And how its just as bad to get out of those ones. Or how you can turn something that seems never ending dark into something with a sliver of light. Things like that are what I'm calling "mirroring Nightcord."
The order of VS that would arrive through events would be reverse of Nightcord's (which was Rin, MEIKO, Luka, Len, KAITO) [KAITO, Len, Luka, MEIKO then lastly Rin] with only Miku to start off with as well for them. UNLESS they tried something new with the unit, in which I would like to suggest KaiMeiLuka as a starter pack and as Yuki becomes closer to being the legal guardian of Mafuyu, the three "adopt" Miku, Rin and Len.
Pjsekai scenario [feel free to rb with ur own ideas and thoughts]
Mizukis sister comes back for a while to visit
To finish the Trifecta of sleepovers, mizuki and mafuyu were gonna hang out
Mizukis sister[who ill call mizane from this point on] is curious abt mafuyu and basically immediately sees through her persona
She connects it to mizuki and how they were
Mizuki gets gifts from their sister
At one point mafuyu begins to get irritated as her hair keeps getting in the way, mizuki offers to cut it but mafuyu says no cuz mother would get mad
Insert mizuki annoying her with several ideas on how to come up with an excuse to cut it
Mizane wonders if mafuyu and mizuki are more alike than they think [perhaps the real transgenders were the friends we made along the way]
And Yada Yada Mayne mafuyu gets a haircut maybe they don't idk but the summary of this would be mafuyu is transmasc
#project sekai#project sekai colorful stage#colorful stage#mafuyu asahina#asahina mafuyu#pjsk mafuyu#yoisaki kanade#kanade yoisaki#pjsk kanade#shinonome ena#ena shinonome#pjsk ena#akiyama mizuki#mizuki akiyama#pjsk mizuki#nightcord at 25:00#25 ji#pjsk senario ideas#mizuki sister

Is kagepro an anime? I wanna get into the series but I don’t know where to start (and honestly all i know about it is the stuff that you post, shout out to that white hair malewife and black hair girlboss you always post about)
GOD OK UM SO kagepro is really one of those things that are. just messy.
this is my pinned, so i’m putting it under read more!
What is kagerou project, should i get into it, how do i get into it?........... let me tell you about it!
originally? it started as vocaloid series, as in a story told thrusongs, then it had a manga adaptation, anime and novels. they all vary a lil bit with consistency tho tell the same story. and that is because… each media represents a “route” the characters go through. yep. it’s a “time reset” kinda story! kagepro its what i like to call a clump story. just a bunch of stories put together. u take longer delving into each character's backstory rather than the actual main plot ig?? like, knowing everyone's backgrounds Builds the present story. it is difficult to explain 1 thing without explaining another and so on..
if you want to start somewhere I recommend listening to the songs in order, many have very cool music videos also the songs are VERY VERY GOOD.
the manga i recommend up until volume 4 chapter 18. after that it gets TOO confusing because it goes into a route thats only explored in this adaptation, while its kinda important if u REALLY wanna jump into the world of kagepro, it is VERY VERY confusing at first, like a LOT happens and differs significantly from the regular routes(and as an old fan i really was not into it that much but that’s aside the point) but the manga in the first 4 volumes at least puts the beginning more in perspective
and only then id recommend watching the anime cuz without all this the anime is VERY confusing lol the novels are good but theyre wholeass BOOKS yknow. there are 8 so it is not beginner friendly if u rly dont wanna tap into it lol even some seasoned fans haven't read them. that’s my casual kagepro fan guide. but.....
but if in the end u rly become interested and u end up reading them... hey, ur here already, and i know i told u not to finish the manga but if u just read 8 light novels i guess ur ok with reading 9 more volumes of manga!!!! and then... i’d watch the anime? because the anime, believe it or not, as shitty and as ugly as it is... possesses the GOOD ending. and bc u read 8 novels, 13 manga volumes and listened to like 5 song albums, u can watch and actually know what’s going on and u are very happy at the end bc after ALL THAT u get to see the good ending.
BY THE WAY AS FOR THE PLOT... as i said, a clump story. kagerou project isn't only difficult to understand when it comes to all its different medias, the story ITSELF is as convoluted as it comes! hurray! but the basics is, shintaro kisaragi is a shut in ever since his hs best friend ayano tateyama committed suicide. he goes out for the first time in 2 years and runs into some funny quirky people who might've been involved in ayano's life, who in return was involved in fun quirky sci-fi shit about..wow? superpowers?! maybe her suicide wasnt driven by depression but by....(SPOILER CUT)? or was it? join shintaros man angst as he learns about everything ayano left behind! you'll cry! its a REALLY sad story! with lovely characters such as:
kido kano and seto! ayano's little siblings! kido is the leader. of what? good question! kano is gay and hates shintaros guts. seto? he has jobs and better things to do. he likes dogs.
momo! shintaros little sister! she is.. a famous idol?! and... DEPRESSED?!
mary! token cute character who is...relevant to the plot!? and even...A PLOT POINT!?!
hibiya! a 12 year old who ended up here for some reason! also equally as important depending on the route, his best friend hiyori! dont worry about it.
konoha! we dont know who this guy is. well. we do. but thats a spoiler so dont tell!!!!
and of course our lovely deuteragonist, ene!! the funny little AI living in shintaros phone who TOTALLY didnt use to be human and has a sob story of her own and totally isnt related to the mystery of konohas existence. kagepro!! call now!! ITS AWFUL IN HERE!
#ask tag#kagepro#kagerou project#might as well put in main tags because this question is semt to me#a LOT#kagexplain#faq

I’m using y’all’s toki pona posts in the fmns tag to practice translating, and I wanted to see how accurate I was w my translations
“I want to say this in toki pona: “I love the Forgetmenauts.” But I don’t know how to say it? I can say “mi olin e ona (I love the Forgetmenauts)” that’s true. But that feels too small, almost nothing. Does anyone who speaks Toki Pona know them? Listen to them, they’re so good! I need someone else to talk to.”
(Some I couldn’t quite figure out but tried to fill in the gaps)
“It was to short. I listened to the song Charlatan in Red. I like it a normal amount. I’m not weird. I can breathe. I’m not okay. I need to sing the round. I’m so normal. I’m not broken or anything”
(“Tenpo pini lili la” could also be “it ended too soon” and “mi nasa ala” could also be “I’m sooo normal.” I also feel like I mistranslated the last line but I’m not sure how to make it sound less clunky. Still, I think it’s a pretty good early attempt)
okay so first of all im in love with you now, we are getting married in january and you should start looking for the formal attire of your choice (might i suggest top hats, potato sacks, wedding gowns?)
second of all youre really close or completely correct on almost everything!!! also remember im not an expert either and have used clunky, experimental and probably plain wrong phrasing at times, so youre fine.
im going to provide a literal translation, toki pona oddness in sentence structure included, as well as my original intended meaning:
toki pona:
tenpo pini lili la, mi kute e kalama musi Charlatan In Red. mi pilin meso. mi nasa ala. mi ken kon pona. mi pilin pona. mi wile ala uta e sijelo mi. mi pilin meso. mi wile ala pakala e ale
literal:
in little finished time, i listened to the song Charlatan in Red. i feel average. i dont feel weird. i can breathe. i feel good. i dont want to eat my body. i feel normal. i dont want to break everything.
intended:
i just listened to charlatan red. i feel normal. im not going insane. i can breathe. im good. i dont want to BITE myself. im so normal. i dont feel the urge to fucking hack everything to pieces.
toki pona:
mi wile toki e ni kepeken toki pona; pilin mi tawa kulupu pi kalama musi Forgetmenauts. taso mi sona ala e ni, mi o toki e seme? mi ken toki "mi olin e ona". ni li lon. taso ni li ike lili, li sin ala. kin la, mi sona ala e ni: jan mute pi toki pona li sona ala sona e kalama musi ona? ala la, o kute e ona, ona li pona a! mi wile toki tawa jan ante sona
literal:
i want to say this using toki pona: my feelings towards the music group Forgetmenauts. but i dont know, what should i say? i can say "i love them". that is true. but thats a little bad and not new. also, i dont know this: do many toki pona people know their music? if not, listen to them, theyre very good! i want to talk to other knowing people.
intended:
i want to talk about my opinions about the fmns in toki pona, but i dont know what to say. could say "i love them" but thats boring and ive already said that enough. and i dont know how many people who speak toki pona know them. if you dont, go listen to them, theyre amazing!! i wanna talk to more other people who know them.
anyway, hope this helps and again, prepare for the wedding!! <3
#the forgetmenauts#toki pona#long post#jans tag#also i realized i could use toki pona as a do not archive tag of sorts where i can just say anything and The Watchful Eyes Of The Creators#wont know#i mean i wouldnt be maintagging anyway but still
