Stop feeding that dog. It's just going to keep coming back, expecting more. It just gives her hope. // [News: Baba Shakti today held a public prayer for victims of the ongoing land disputes, advocating that violence is never the answer.]

“Haven’t You Noticed (I’m a Star)” from Steven Universe works so ridiculously well for Leo
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt headcanons#rottmnt leo#rise leo#listen it’s morning now and I haven’t slept so bear with me for the sudden unwarranted lyric analysis haha#a lotttt of the lyrics work so well for him#not even just the overall theme the words just work great#first lyric is literally ‘I can’t help it if I make a scene’ which is one to one with ‘Leo’s makin a scene’ from the rottmnt opening like-#‘I’m turning heads and I’m stopping traffic’ -> Leo has not made it a secret that he values his looks a LOT#-not just his looks but also his ability to get people’s attention#‘when I pose they scream when I joke they laugh’ -> I feel like this speaks for itself#-posing and joking for the crowd and himself#‘I’ve got them dazzled like a stage magician’ -> works both with Leo’s canonical love of magicians and his aptitude with tricks in general#‘well everybody needs a friend and I’ve got you and you and you’ -> I just think it’d be cute to imagine his friends here just as his bros#‘I got you and you and you’ = ‘my brainy guy my smashing guy and eats peanut butter with his fingers guy’#‘haven’t you noticed that I’m a star?’ -> Leo loves attention and especially loves when his feats and efforts are acknowledged#+ he loves glam rock and sci-fi and being a champ and - listen he has a LOT of star symbolism with him#‘haven’t you noticed I made it this far’ - Leo is well aware of how dangerous situations get and thinks himself only a part of a whole#-so hey it’s notable that he’s survived this long yeah?#‘now everyone can see me burning’ -> self-sacrificing with his family bearing witness + all his star and flame symbolism in general#+ how attention naturally goes to him - including bad attention where his mistakes are highlighted and burn bright#also even the limo lyric-#obviously this boy has never and will never own a limo but one of his main secondary colors IS pink so even that#okay that one is just a joke but he would#(on that note though I think the other colors the boys gravitate to outside THEIR color are fun to notice)#I don’t actually know too much about Steven universe beyond the songs and some eps but I like the music#and this just came to my tired mind so here you go anyone who’s interested#may draw something with these lyrics dunno yet#it’s a good song in any case even though it’s super short

There's something at the tip of my tongue about the parallels between Jackie and Wilson and Who We Are
How the narrator of Jackie and Wilson wants to run away with a woman that he's carved out of his imagination based on a brief interaction. How they would try the world, but good god it wasn't for them. So they run away from it into a fantasy world where they live by their own rules.
And then comes the narrator of Who We Are, who dreamt his whole life of finding someone who would hold him like water or like a knife, only to find that running away from the world will only get them so far, since "the hardest part is who we are". And only to find out that the "phantom life" he's fantasized about is actually just that: a phantom. And its absence sharpens like a knife
#hozier#sahar stfu about hozier#I'm aware that on the surface these songs are not really about the same thing#but there's something about the way that j&w narrator craves the fantasy he speaks of#that reminds me so much of the voice of Who We Are who thinks he realizes the fantasy only to watch it become a nightmare#and the contrast between the dream-fuelled lyrics of J&W that evoke daring adventures on the wide opened desert#and the sharp concise biting lyrics of who we are sung in tired resignation#and followed by near-wailing at the end#that just sticks out to me so much#it's like the whole of Unreal Unearth is just a sequence of the various voices of the self-titled album coming back#sometimes disillusioned#sometimes exhausted#sometimes resigned#sometimes wise#sometimes at peeace#sometime enraged#to sing about their most bitter disappointments and the harshest lessons they've learned over the years#and I can't stop thinking about it

I truly believe Will Wood is an incredible musician and songwriter and is one of the top lyricists in the last decade both in and outside of the genres that he chooses to play in with absolutely zero irony. I also believe that you can only fully understand that if you’ve either had a pet die before listening to his music or you have a history of drug abuse and mental health crises. Or you’re trans.
#this may sound like a snooty post where I’m just upholding my own favorite music as the best#but honestly it’s in response to a lot of fans I’ve seen be really self critical?#like yeah haha I listen to bad music#and I also have been known to joke about my own weird taste#but here’s the thing! from a technical level! his music! goes hard! it is experimental and that is GOOD#and lyrically listen I listen to a lot of music#I’m even familiar with top forty stuff and while yes the content of his songs is very niche#the lyricism is so genuinely clever and playful and ugh god#ok anyway. sorry#listened to Will wood again#and also this post is about the fact that I first I didn’t get it.#and then I went to a really low point. and suddenly I got it#ok it cracked me open like a fucking egg#music#text#personal#kinda

She's Thunderstorms
"I remember writing this one when there was a storm going on. They get like mad storms over there [in New York], like, apocalyptic. I’m always trying to think of different interesting ways to like describe somebody but compliment them too. So in that one, I like the idea that she’s not even a thunderstorm, she’s more than one. I quite like the fact she’s plural. ‘Thunderstorms’ meaning just, y’know, awesome!"
[x]
#this lyric is my favourite but 'she does what the night does to the day' was a close second#it's SUCH a good album opener. those opening chords just chime in like a bell being rung#it's soft and romantic and simple. idk what else to say besides: it's perfect and it makes me feel warm and fuzzy#arctic monkeys#alex turner#sias era#suck it and see#she's thunderstorms#electric factory philadelphia 2011#arctic monkeys gifs#alex turner gifs#alex turner edits#arctic monkeys edits#am gifs#my gifs#mine#daddy-long-legssss#sias series

Randomly thinking about “tolerate it” (narrator voice: it was not random) and how under the cloak of fiction it is ostensibly inspired by works like “Rebecca” (which Taylor said she read during the 2020 lockdowns I believe?), with the line of “you’re so much older and wiser” indicating that the speaker is significantly younger and inexperienced compared to the person she’s speaking to and a pretty direct reference to the plot of the book.
But I saw something somewhere once that stuck with me about how it might not be referring to relative age between the characters but chronological age as in the passage of time in a relationship. And that made me think about how in a contemporary context, it might not necessarily be referencing an actual age gap between the two characters, but rather a sarcastic or cynical response to the man’s claims that he has matured (“you’re so much older and wiser [than you were before/than you were when we met/etc.]”), which then made me think about that line in relation to the woman. And that it could be taken like, “you act like you’ve matured so much in our time together and like you know everything, while I’m supposedly still stuck as the girl I was when we first met.”
Which then made me think of the “right where you left me” of it all and did you ever hear about the girl who got frozen time went on for everyone else she won’t know it and the bit in Miss Americana where she talks about how celebrities get frozen at the age at which they got famous, and how she’s had to play catch up in a lot of ways not just in her emotional growth but kind of in general. (Which also made me wonder if she’s ever been called out for immaturity/lack of curiosity/lack of education about things in her life…)
Which then made me think about the rest of the song, and @taylortruther’s posts yesterday about “seven” and “Daylight” and the way Taylor idealizes her youth yet contrasts it with an almost sinister reality in its wake, and the line, “I sit by the door like I’m just a kid,” because the discussion raised that her relationship let her recapture some of the childlike joy and wonder she’d lost. So this line is a double-edged sword: the speaker sits by the door with childlike hope that the person will come home and cherish her, but on the darker side, feels like the child dealing with the monsters she doesn’t have names for yet and the feelings of isolation she felt as she aged.
I’m not saying the song is necessarily autobiographical; like most of the songs on folkmore, it’s clearly a fictionalized story based on media she’d consumed and created, but we know a lot of the fictional songs were infused with her own feelings and experiences and… This idea swirling in my head picked up steam and now I kind of can’t stop thinking about it. Sorry but I’m a little obsessed now.
Like maybe it might start to shed light on why she identified so strongly with the novel in the first place…
#the third eye has been opened#😵💫#like tolerate it was always a difficult song#even when we learned it was based on Rebecca it obviously took on new meaning post-joever#and especially in light of ttpd#but the thought spiral i went on last night when i started thinking about all these connections#and the evermore of it all#I’m Charlie at the conspiracy board again#writing letters addressed to the fire#me thinking too hard about Taylor lyrics#evermore my beloved#tolerate it#i kinda gave myself the ick with all this 😵💫#because of the ttpd of it all coming up#and i feel like i remember interviews where Taylor said joe was so well-read especially about like world events and politics and stuff#and supported her when she wanted to start speaking up (not getting into that)#but just based on ~vibes now I wonder if that was like a sore point too at some point#which again i have no proof of but just like… experience with pretentious millennial art bros lol#oh man oh man oh man#this feels like some sort of huge revelation at 1:00 am#when i started writing this lol#eta: when I queued this in the middle of the night i didn't see all the excellent discussion about the seven/folklore posts#so all of you who have been posting about them this morning consider yourselves tagged too!

can’t think of anything to say other than it was everything I could have ever expected and wanted and hoped for. seeing them perform truly is an electric experience and I am so, so grateful I got to be there. I’ve never felt such overflowing joy and love in one room before and that truly is down to what a one-of-a-kind group Starkid is. I’m so happy and a little emotional that it’s over but like it’s sung in days of summer, “don’t wanna see you go but it’s not forever, not forever” ⭐️💜
#Starkid#starkid innit#star rambles#don’t really get Emotional and or Sincere on tumblr but I needed to put these feelings SOMEWHERE#and gods the Starkid community is amazing#I saw so many mind blowing cosplays and met so many kind and excited people like me#it was really beautiful to see a theatre full of people bound together by our love for this group#I got v emotional when they closed the show with gotta get back to Hogwarts#and Clark asked us all to sing for Darren#truly like. hearing everyone get the lyrics and the timing and the notes right just bc we all care about this so much..gods#that’s something incredibly special and I’m v grateful to be a part of it#also they performed our doors are open AND back on top AND a new rogues medley so that was thrilling for me personally#AND SIDEKICK#AND SPICE GIRLS’ WANNABE#like holy shit they gave us everything we wanted and MORE#really and truly a once in a lifetime experience for me#like hopefully I get to see them live again but hey#if I don’t??? then I have these memories that are so joyful and vibrant#yeah. it was totally awesome 🤘

I might be killed for saying this but there is something so smart about opening your (arguably worst) new album with "this isn't rock and roll, this is music for children"
#joker out#was this on purpose? God i hope so uts hilarious#it has sass it has BITE#its camp idc#i came with zero expectations for this album then I was hit in the face with an actually very good and fun song basically calling me a Kid#amazing#there is something so fun and honestly cool about eurovision artists admitting that they have Become Mainstream#that their music is not as good as it was#that it has become POP#that their music is now for literal children#and that we are children playing along with them#its also kinda liberating#the idea of music for the sake of being playful and fun#because idk about you i came with big expectations about big lyrics about big things#we kinda got them dont get me wrong#but i liked being slapped in the face and being told Shut up let's just have a little fun#i had fun! i wouldnt have liked this album as half as i did without Muzika za decu being first#wonderful opener and my favorite song of this album#overall i think there are a lot of very smart songs in this album#that kinda play in my opinion with their shift of perception after eurovision#i think its a very contextual maybe even subjective album#and while i think musically its not as good as demoni or um it gives you a lot to think

ttpd song predictions: fortnight (ft. post malone)
how quickly things change in the time of two weeks, how fast our time ran out of the hourglass, how it can only take a fortnight to end a relationship, how much time should you give yourself before you decide to blow up your life? what happens when the fortnight ends and you wake up as someone new? time's up, time to go, time to end it, time to move on.
#tswiftedit#taylorswiftedit#taylor swift#the tortured poets department#taylor swift lyrics#ttpdpredictions#just for fun to see how wrong i am bc taylor always plays on words and does different things w themes#this song is hard bc i really don't know what it will sound like - a post song probably but even that has a lot of range within it#i almost think it'll be snappy and sharp to open the album with#but who knows!#if u guys have any suggestions for lyrical parallels w other ttpd songs potentially pls tell me i love guessing#mine#taylor

perhaps i just need to stop trying to make edits with like, a vision and a concept, and instead simply choose some random ass song and puts some random ass clips over it and go from there
#yes im still on this#no i havent even opened any editing software#i think the issue is i want to make like. gross phan edits#but for that you kinda need a song that FITS#i should just make something like. funny. or whatever. cause then who gaf about lyrics#im so bored i could cry i need to do something but omg im useless

au where obi-wan gets prophetic dreams of anakin’s fall but they’re the kenobi show montage dreams where nothing useful can be gleaned about how to stop it; so obi-wan decides he just needs to leave the order. anakin is only 12, he can be trained by another master. obi-wan didn’t even have a master when he was 12. anakin will be fine. stars, he’ll probably be better.
of course he’s not and of course obi-wan abandoning him pushes him closer to palpatine and he falls much sooner, becoming a baby sith that palpatine mostly farms out to dooku for training because anakin at 16, 17, 18 is a lot
and when he falls, the jedi order is like hm. we’re gonna tell kenobi about this. cause now skywalker is a sith with a sith master, and a grudge the size of coruscant against the guy who left him, so. let’s just give him a heads up to maybe consider going into hiding
but of COURSE when obi-wan hears his precious padawan STILL FELL he goes right to count dooku and asks to be his apprentice, he’d make such a good apprentice, dooku always liked him when he was qui-gon’s padawan, remember? now he could be his apprentice
dooku knows that with skywalker, 19 and well-trained now in the picture, his usefulness to sidious is running out, so he doesn’t have a lot of reasons to say no to kenobi. and kenobi is right. he did always like him when he was qui-gon’s apprentice, so sure he’ll give him a sith name (solence) and a red lightsaber (sick)
but basically this leads to very awkward sith family dinners where darth vader--is trying to kill darth solence with his eyes and sometimes the nearest oyster fork, darth solence is throwing sad kicked puppy expressions across the table at darth vader and sighing into his dessert pudding all the while debating with darth tyranus about how good the dark side could really be, i mean, if one were to really think about it, especially in comparison to the life we all led at the Temple, remember anakin? you loved life at the Temple.
darth sidious stopped accepting the invites five dinners ago.
#kit's silly lil aus#obikin#because obi-wan is of course only there to get anakin to return to the jedi or leave the sith#ok he hasn't really figured out his plan but it's been so hard abandoning the boy#that the moment he heard maybe he needed him he had to go#also this would be an au where.#anakin thinks this is hate sex and obi-wan is like this could not be further from hate sex let me stroke your cheek tenderly until u get it#could only be called something needlessly dramatic on ao3 like#a litany of apologies spelled out in red ink#or song lyric title that's just i'll follow you into the dark#etc etc#also before you ask no i don't save things to my drafts#think about them and then decide to delete instead of post#as soon as i open a text box im posting babyyyy
