Bats don't know what to do as The Mockingbird and Time Mock them

That Edward Nygma wasn't a real person in the database or that the riddler actually got won one battle over Batman. Batman had tried to snoop through the apartment, but there was mostly always a person there alongside children.

Then there was a trigger of other rogues break out when there actually nobody in the apartment.

Not mentioning the real person behind riddler

Eddie Mockingbird Walker was born out of a 6 year affair between Edwin Walker, strict borderline insane Prisoner Warden, and beautiful red haired Judy Mockingbird, a former cleaning lady who was fired by the wife of Walker after finding out the affair.

Three years later, Judy Mockingbird was later a victim of a break-in and homicide, the only witness being a 3 year old traumatized Eddie hiding in a toy chest doodle with hand drawn puzzle murals, unfortunately that case was later put in the cold case files with not enough suspects.

Eddie was thrown through the wringer of several orphanages for 4 years, only to be refound by his grandmother Grethen Mockingbird, a former retired pianist who was unable to play anymore due a severe case of tendonitis.

A bright Prodigy to music and puzzles boxes made by his grandmother, a rare talent in school to the point the music teacher begged his grandmother Grethen to signed him in a tournament which later led to Eddie into the spotlight with the youngest pianist to make he audience weep with joy that catapult him all the way through several tournaments, winning each one, talkshows, interviews from age 9 to 22 year old.

He was known as Rose Thief of Hearts in the music community, the next living Beethoven they cried out, especially on how many ladies and guys fallen for his sweet, obvious charms and bright red hair that flow down his waist.

Becoming best friends with his half-sister, Madeline Walker, that he rarely met.

Tragedy struck when on The Chopin Competition, Gretchen Mockingbird died from cardiac arrest in the middle of her grandson's performance.

Eddie disappeared, being dragged off by Edwin Walker during the private funeral, which led many people to the theory of the whereabouts of the music Prodigy.

Then, the rest of the data file went missing until a year ago when Eddie Mockingbird appeared once more during a shocking news of adopting his niece and nephews who will stay anonymous after explaining a rather shocking tale with enough explanation on why he was away from media was extremely popular in the music culture.

Batman could only stare at the photo capture by Red Robin on the Batcomputer, tired bag eyed soft smiling Eddie Mockingbird at family diner. His black hair and eyebrow were gone, revealing a natural red hair that had grown down to his neck, wearing casual clothes with his niece, Jasmine Fenton, a teenage red-haired girl speaking with a soft look

A large massive man, named Jack Fenton that looks too alike to Bruce clumsily and failing feeding a little 2 year old baby girl in a toddler chocolates banana fudge ice cream with green bitd, while trying to stopping her twin brother flinging soft sweet peas at a giggling 5 year old toddler trying to air bite the peas.

A disgusted looking young entrepreneur who discoverered a much better energy source for phones that went world-wide, Tucker Foley, who was gagging at a Sam Manson, had a beyond burger and a salad, her middle finger pointing at him saying something to him.

Batman couldn't get near someone like him, or get a hint of his music albums that were also sold out even from 10 year ago to now with new albums that not even Jim Gordon would help him that Riddler is the famous pianist that he had a collection of his music, and he wouldn't let him 'borrow' them.

Jason had just started dating Jasmine, but he wouldn't tell them about what the riddler's plans were to the point of disconnecting and disabling all the trackers on his phones, even the backup ones with Cass and Babs!

He tried booking for Mockingbird concerts only to find out they were all booked to 20XX for the past 6 months after The Chopin Competition, not even attempting bribes, would shorten a 15 mile long waiting list.

This was driving Bruce a little mad as if time itself was mocking him!!

I’ve been feeling really pessimistic about the AI “art” rise in the animation industry (thanks, Bob) and how it’s gonna impact my career post-graduation (I graduate next spring) and even though I’m nervous and worn down about it, one thing I’m sort of taking comfort in is that even if the animation industry keeps self-imploding, I can still do formline art. Maybe that’s a little self-aggrandizing, but i truly think formline art is one of the things AI can really, truly, never replicate. This goes for all forms of art ofc, but over all my studies I’ve come to the sort of understanding that formline art is more then just art; it’s a storytelling device too, and it conveys my culture. Formline art has a specific rhythm to it and a history to it that can’t be learned by a machine in a way that truly conveys and understands our culture. Formline art takes real work to learn and making it is all about the process. You learn the shapes, you learn the animals and their spirit, you learn the intricate patterns and the cultural relevance it has. you don’t just look at it and try to replicate it like some art scalpers or a machine does. You don’t get the spiritual and cultural connection from feeding a machine over and over again.

At the end of the day, AI can never truly be human, and thus it can never really replicate my nation’s culture and feel our history, and so it can never truly replicate formline art too.

See Jazz — Is This Anything (Flower Sounds)

Photo by Colin Marchon 

See Jazz’s “1982” reminds me of a song that rarely comes up in comparisons, one so singular and, in its way, perfect, that it seems not to have left much of a trail on the world, even as lesser songs get copied repeatedly. I’m talking here about Felt’s “Primitive Painters,” with its crystalline oscillating riff, its blooming surges of guitar and organ sound, its rocketing drums and, finally, its vocal duet between Verlaine-channeling Martin and dream-drenched Elizabeth Fraser of the Cocteau Twins. Though home recorded and not nearly as epic, “1982” has that same vertiginous balance between tremulous, astral ideality and wounded, grounded vulnerability, the same contrast between ragged doubt and heavenly solace. If See Jazz’s Aaron Pfannebecker were asking me the question in his title, I’d point to this track first. Yes, indeed, this right here. This is something.

Pfannebecker comes from Western Mass but lives now in New York City, and though he hasn’t accumulated much of a musical catalogue as yet, he is well connected in both places. That’s Langellotti of Kurt Vile and the Violators playing bass on all but one tracks. Fellow Pioneer Valley native Jed Smith, of the Jeanines and My Teenage Strides turns up for the outlier, the new-wave-into-sad-boy disco “Dance With Me,” which evokes both Fine Young Cannibals and the Pet Shop Boys. The woman with the floaty, airy, too-perfect-to-be-real voice is Zara Bode from Sweetback Sisters.

However well-backed he may be, Pfannebecker sticks mostly to instruments he can man himself—programmed drums, unearthly organs and electronic keyboards, guitar and voice. Is This Anything? is obviously influenced by some big, well-financed, professionally recorded sounds—early 1980s new wave, particularly—but it, in itself, feels home-made. You can catch a whiff of the Thompson Twins, Tears for Fears, even Wham! in the suave keyboards and bass of “American Possibilities,” but there’s something naked and yearning in the vocals.

Nothing else here is quite as good as “1982,” though “Dance with Me,” comes closest. Yet that one track is arresting enough to make you wonder what’s next and whether See Jazz’s giant ambitions and low-key execution will find as ideal a balance again.

"His son," he answered with a smile. Even fewer people were so hated by their families that they would independently hire someone to kill them. "Do you have any questions for me?"

The Shepherd cocked her head and furrowed her brow. Her question fell from her lips quietly and without preamble, and it detonated like a hydrogen bomb, "If I die tonight, will you mourn me? There isn’t anyone else." She fumbled her words and hastened to add, "Who would even notice, much less care if I die, I mean."

The aftershock rolled into him and sent blood thundering through his chest. "Yes, I mourn you every time, " he answered sincerely and before he could grasp the magnitude of his own words. "Shepherd, if Kalahira calls me to the sea tonight, will you mourn for me?"

"Yes. Every time."

Thane Krios meets his rival assassin, The Shepherd, for the last time.

They are caught in each other's violence and washed in desire.

And they swear, this time will be the last time they see each other. One of them has to die.

I remember meeting a guy at a bar a year or so ago who told me he worked at the international consortium that does the porn parodies of all the top-grossing film releases. He said that the whole Barbenheimer situation presented his combine with some spectacular highs and lows. Because he said that with Barbie, right, the thing about Barbie is that there's already kind of a three-way ideatic, structural parallel between the curated artificiality of Barbie as a children's toy, the curated artificiality of Barbie as a mass market film, and the curated artificiality of pornography as a genre. Add on top of that that Barbie as a film is already feeling this tension, right where it's trying to be about a character graduating from the platonic sexlessness of a children's franchise to the functional-and-frank sexuality of being a living human woman, but it's also being bogged down in the "Everyone-is-beautiful-no-one-is-horny" aesthetic restrictions of any contemporary big-budget mass-market film so the two states end up looking pretty similar, he said. I mean the film itself is very aware of that tension, right, with that joke about how "casting Margot Robbie is the wrong move if you want to make that point," all that jazz. So, all that in mind, Barbie-themed pornography, he said, is in a weird way actually kind of complementary to the extant project, gesturing at unaddressed tensions and ideas, a dark mirror, the shadow self it wants to deny but can't, there's a lot of room to play in the space. He used the adjective "Lynchian" a couple of times, he seemed super stoked, he was talking with his hands. Oppenheimer, on the other hand. Oppenheimer he said presented a problem. Because obviously you can eroticize the detonation of an atomic bomb, we're all probably three mutuals removed from someone on this site who does exactly that, but obviously that's a niche market, and moreover it's a market that has a ton of overlap with high-minded thinkers who treat the historical use of atomic weapons against Japan with the level of gravity that atrocity demands. So they were stuck. They were really stuck. He told me that they'd been pulling their hair out for months trying to square the circle and all they had to show for it was a big whiteboard with the phrase "Grope-nheimer" written on it

Sabato 16 novembre presso la Cripta della Basilica del Corpus Domini di Milano in via Pagano 8 i cori Glass Armonico e Coro Seduto terranno un concerto interpretando queste due famose composizioni. Il concerto è a favore della Mensa dei più deboli dalla Basilica del Corpus Domini.

Anonymous said: And you're not more freaked out/guilty about the fact that your BF is some kind of successful Plant hybrid person?

"Guilty? Yeah, of course... but freaked out? No. I mean, it was a bit shocking given, um... when it happened, but I've known about what the Eye was doing for a long time."

... he tried to get them to stop, too, in the early days. Begging, empty threats, no one wanted to listen to him when his brother's right hand had already convinced them that what they were doing was for the good of humanity... so, he'd started breaking into labs to try and sabotage equipment. He'd talked to the Plants there, asked them to help by slowing down anything they were producing. And it worked for a little while.

Until he got caught.

He still remembers how... happy Nai was, when he came to confirm his capture. That... was a long few months.

Vash blinks, and the distantly forlorn expression his face had taken on disappears. He shakes his head, "I'm more surprised they didn't tell him. But Wolfwood's right... it's already been done. Being upset about it won't change that; all we can do is make sure that it doesn't happen to anyone else."

November Night (Jazz Hop Version)

[eepy-jazz-musicians]

Ya know what's hilarious. Mass Extinction Event, the band that made our favorite song, and a really really good song we listen to any time we need to feel overwhelmed, has literally never made a single other song since 2017. They'd be my favorite band if they actually did more than two things. Granted, one of those songs is actually 6 songs in a trenchcoat and over 30 minutes long, and the other one's no slouch either at almost 8 minutes.

Thankfully the composer went on to make another band, and it's pretty good, but not quite to my same tastes bc there's not as diverse instrumentation.
