don’t mind me, just bitching about my choir teacher
#that man. that fucking man.#he’s nice but he lies to our faces all the fucking time#he always tells my choir that we’re his favorite bc we’re actually mature and we get shit done#meanwhile#we never get to fucking do anything#like for the high school choirs there’s men’s ensemble#women’s ensemble (the one i’m in)#and vocal ensemble (the top choir that you have to audition for)#and vocal and men’s both get to have field trips throughout the year to go do stuff and perform at places#and womens?#all we get is the choir picnic that every choir goes to#and competition that every choir also goes to#we also get the most boring songs#like in men’s they always get fun songs that they have choreography and shit for#and even in vocal they’ll have the occasional fun song#but womens? nope. no dancing. no fun things.#just the most boring songs ever#do they sound pretty? yeah some of them#but they’re absolutely dull otherwise#and he wonders why we have a hard time smiling at concerts#also auditioning for vocal and vocal ensemble as a whole is kinda super bullshit#bc it’s a very biased process in favor of those with higher incomes and stable families#but that’s a whole other thing#and i’m really tired lol#anyways sorry for the rant he just really pisses me off#k.txt#vent tw

hello, here for your opinion on odysseus! have you read madeline miller’s “circe”? if so, what did you think of odysseus?
Ooooohhhhhhhh you're nudging at a pandoras box asking me my opinions of Madeline Miller 🙃
To answer while holding the full ranting instinct back on a leash (partially bc I legit don't have much time for much typing rn AND I know lots of people like MM and idk I generally don't enjoy making people feel like they shouldn't like a thing, but I also love being salty and this is my constant internal struggle):
With a lot of her characterizations I feel like M.M. either goes too hard making them sympathetic (Circe and Patrocles being the top contenders who come to mind) or she swings too hard the other way. Odysseus is like....fine? He's not outright terrible? But he does fall into her "they are either sympathetic (cougboringcough) beauties with maayybe a couple Tragic Flaws (that are barely flaws, goD why couldn't she just let Circe have full agency and purposely curse Scylla why can't maybe Penelope be as much of a scheming suspicious fucker as her husband GOD these "feminist retelling" authors are too cowardly to touch Medea-nonono the rant is leashed I'm staying on target!) or they are horrible awful people." But she's made so many comments that make me baffled about her academic background in classics (why would you say all the gods are sociopaths Madeline??? that is an actual ancient cultures religion you're trashing??? do you not get how gods are used narratively in stories is not the same as they're worshipped esp in a religion without strict canon??? You know how we all understand that Paradise Lost isnt Christian canon what the F-Not ranting not ranting I'm good!!) lmao. She seems to fall into the common take I see where modern Anglo morality is projected on the characters divorced of the time/culture/narrative they are set in, and then go "omg how did people think this was a hero?"
Anyway I just don't see how people can look at Odysseus being a scheming ratfuck compulsive liar (who is also a great warrior in violent times bc it...was a warrior society who told his story) and go "um he's terrible why would anyone like him as he is originally????" while MCU Loki was so popular they kept bringing him back from the dead to continue being A Scheming Little Bastard.
(EDIT: uh tldr is I read Circe. The entire experience was me going "oooo it's about to get good" and then realizing that Circe is just boring the whole time. Came out the other end with more feelings about how M.M. writes women than Odysseus, but her Odysseus is part of a trend of doing a lot of black and white morality shenanigans)
#read circe and came away underwhelmed overall and esp bored by her circe#tried reading song of achilles when it came out and was bored and then angry at how she wrote thetis and patroclus#most of my other big MM opinions are opinions about how modern 'feminist' retellings just add more miserable women than the og story had#and its impossible to ignore her work if you talk about ancient lit#god im gonna be chewing glass when i need to see everyone talking about the Persephone book shes writing#if she ever writes about Dionysus and Ariadne i might commit a sparagmos#this answer IS my held back rant fodjdkdj#i was bored by circe and then the more i read the classics the more i got mad at it fifjdkdj#i added a read more for those who don't care to see me barely holding back from biting about mm

You do know that anime is majorly problematic?

#i am not saying it's not but every show is boring & poorly written every movie too violent every song about sex & drugs every book most#pretentious piece ever written every singer bad (i literally have another ask sitting about lana just because posted about the album i#liked) every media too problematic like we can acknowledge that boycott when necessary but otherwise what do you want me to do?#ask

any thoughts on ttpd??? i want to know what you think >24h after release 🤍
this is a very difficult question, edith, because i have a huge problem with this album, i also feel like i have a lot to say, but i will write the entire essay in a few days, cause there's a lot to unpack. for now i can only say that i don't love this album, i still think it's the worst taylor's album ever (for those who say this is her best album: stop lying), there's nothing poetic about it for me & really hate some of the lyrics (come on, charlie puth & tattooed golden retriever, cringe cringe cringe). as much as i love jack, i think taylor should have worked more with aaron on this one, because the 2am edition is much better & i feel like he saved it with his incredible production, it's literally everything i wanted this album to be. in conclusion: i would probably erase the entire standard edition (maybe i would leave 2-3 songs that i actually liked) & i would just make an album out of those 2am tracks. the only song i can truly say i love is "i hate it here", maybe because it's the most relatable for me. but imo the entire album was just... terrible & unnecessary. taylor, please, take a break.
#also i wanted to add that when i found out this is a double album i was so mad... because i was so bored & tired...#those songs were so disappointing#& then BOOM BITCH there's even more#i didn't ask for this#but my boy aaron saved the day#the first part of the album feels lazy & boring#& this is the first time ever when i really want to give it a chance & a few more listens but i just have to#literally force myself to listen to it during the day#& i skip most of the songs anyway#so idk#it's scandalous really#i just... feel so bored.#maybe it will grow on me tho we will see#but those are my thoughts for now#i'm sorry#ts#ttpd#i saved every letter you wrote me*

actors are so strong cause if i was an actor and i had to answer the same 3 goddamn questions 50 times during a press tour i would start punching people
#i don't know how they do these press tours i'd kill myself#i'm still just watching whatever fall guy interview youtube recommends me#i think i can sum up the fall guy press tour in two questions that get asked in every interview#1. are you a swiftie and what are your favorite taylor swift songs#2. did you do any of your own stunts/talk about the stunts that you did#and ryan will still get the occasional ken question#also so many of these interviewers are just the most annoying people to ever exist#and they ask the most boring shit they can clip on their tiktok#watching interviews from press tours is always a mixed bag because some are brilliant but some just makes you want to poke your eyes out#actors are stronger than the us marines#pine rambles

I wish there was a way you could put like. every song in the world on shuffle
#spotify playlists made for you are not enough#bc they're based on music i already like and i don't Wanna Hear Music I Already Like#god i need a hyperfixation that is Stable and also New (not a revival of one I've had since I was 16)#bc they introduce me to music i wouldn't have even thought of ever going near#not to compare everything to the highs of my tflu obsession but like?#that introduced me to So Much Music (some related. some not)#i probably listened to more genres in 2022 than i have ever listened to in my life#but idk. i could just listen to some random genre i have no interest in but what would be the point?#there needs to be a sort of 'hilda would've liked this in the 40s' 'this reminds me of swagtre' 'this is literally the plot of nddp' etc#sort of connection#but all i have right now is the endless cycling continuation of the south park obsession i had in 2016. which makes it very easy to just#listened to the music i listened to back then#also it's like. I've seen everything in that fandom there's nothing new i can really get out of it?#it's more just a mix of nostalgia and it's like. easy to get into bc idk. a lot of characters and storylines so you don't get bored in one#place for so long. almost the perfect obsession if it wasn't literally South Park#but surely i can just type in a character's name on spotify and find new music that way?#hahaha No#bc every single sp playlist I've looked through only seems to use like the same 10 songs. and i don't really like any of them#also 'he would not fucking say that' except it's 'he would not fucking listen to that'#most of the time. idk#i need new Vibes that's the problem#there's always a new vibe going on at all times but it seems to have stopped around the start of this year#maybe i just need a job. once i have a job there'll be a location i go to regularly. and I'll have to travel there in some way. and that#will be a new experience. and there'll be new vibes#I'll probably stumble across a new hyperfixation in the process. and then find new music from it#but for now everything is so stagnant and all i really listen to is 80s/90s indie pop and then just music i've listened to since I was 14#i can't even ask for recommendations bc even if i like a song it has nothing to stick to in my brain#i'll be like ''this is a cool song i like it'' and listen to it on repeat and then go off it like a day later#oh fuck tag limit#ramble

Not listening to her album because I can't bear hearing one song about liking a man 🙏
#seeing that tatooed golden retriever line sent me over an edge this morning 😭#breaking up with a man is the least interesting thing in the entire world to me idc idc idc#her and i have fallen off hard and i don't even care#with the last album it was like well it was bad to me but different phases at different times etc#but the rerecordings have gotten increasingly boring and i don't care about the men like normie straight girls do#and her fandom was already massively lesphobic but she has gotten increasingly comfortable with going oh my god don't say i am a lesbian...#...please god that's the worst thing in the world you could be oh my god stop look at my puppy boyfriend uwu#i don't even give a fuck if she is or not or what any of the songs have ever been about but being a lesbian it's like uh well actually...#... it's really bothersome to hear women upset at the idea of being a lesbian like it's so terrible and freakish#i like being a lesbian more than i want to hear her music now#and the way her popularity being bigger than it ever has been right at the time she's doing the worst things ever has just made a cult of..#...normie girls who are just reveling in her being the face of being straight normie is very off putting#the racist guy and the planes and the being a billionare while making the most soulest music you have ever made...#some of this has been going on all along and i guess i was at a point where i was ignoring it that i have grown out of but it's gotten worse#anyway <3

Every fucking queer love story I consume completely ruins me
#FUCK#probably bc I never imagined to be able to experience actual queer love stories in media bc growing up it was always a joke#but jfc even the tiniest queer plot#doesn’t matter if it’s happy or sad or boring or anything#it reduces me to a crying mess for weeks#most recently it’s tlou obviously#the last of us#bill and frank#but like San junipero on black mirror did it#or the haunting of bly manor#or… others but I’m drunk and crying rn I can’t handle it#lgbt#lgbtq#queer#tlou#fuck man even listening to abba and assigning my own gay story to a song makes me sob like a baby#or like maybe bc my first ever relationship was with a girl when I was 17 and I thought we were going to get married#and she was the love of my life before I even really knew what love was or what the queer experience is like I was just so overcome by love#and I WISH I could feel that way about someone again lmao#even though we were toxic and awful just I’ve never felt that overwhelming infatuation/immediate love for someone

every retail song is taylor swift to me
#i hate when music is boring like at least make bad music so it gives me something to think about#props to her for confidently being one of the most boring and uninspired people to get mega famous and being ok with that ❤️#really it’s a virtue. i would rather kill myself in an extremely dramatic fashion than ever write a boring song#then at least i would have contributed something beautiful and interesting to the world#sorry i just got out of work and my whole entire body hurty so bad#chicken scratch

i hate when bands release all the good songs from an album as singles before the album comes out like.. save a FEW good songs as a surprise at least
#bella.txt#i dnt think i ever talked on here abt how disappointing the recent grillaz album was like..#they literally had all the good songs as singles and everything else was boring#it sounded like the scraps from the now now which is (now) their second most boring album#it's so forgettable#the fall was a bad album but at least it was bad and unique. this one is just boring#it got saved by some of the bonus tracks tbh otherwise it wld be on the bottom for me

mustard.
What am I Iooking at here
#i was just at the worst junior prom in my life#which isn't saying alot because ive only been to two junior proms#but god this one was so much worse than the one i was at the other night#yknow those parts of songs everyone sings along to? like how in sweet caroline it goes ''BUM BUM BUM''?#the dj would cut out the songs right at that moment. i think he was expecting people to sing along? but it just went#''SWEET CAROLINE'' *dead silence* *song continues*#i knew nobody. almost everyone my 'date' knew hated his guts.#there was nowhere away from the music. it was only one area (a courtyard) with no other rooms and barely any seats. i hate loud noises.#everyone looked so bored or so resentful. everyone was either wearing a funeral suit or the shortest dress i'd ever seen#I was uncomfortable with the slit in my dress but then I saw how the longest one anyone else had only went to their knees?#i mean i still wish i wore my other outfit and my jacket but at least i was somehow the most covered.#there were fireworks. i hate loud noises.#me and my friend both agreed that the junior proms would be so much better if we just went to the first one and skipped the second.#actually it wasn't all bad. there was a fountain that was was actually just a fancy kiddie pool with candles floating in it.#peak of the night right there.#also my hand started feeling better so that's good as well.#and at one point afterwords my mom said ''i wouldn't be surprised if you were slightly on the autism spectrum''#????????? slightly??????????? also how did she not already know? literally everyone else knows already. and she's literally my mother.#and i ended up ranting to her about my health anxiety#and then i started ranting about other anxiety and how i'm the therapist friend of a lot of people#and that led to how i'm constantly in a panic that something horrible is happening to my friends and i can't help them#and that led to Girlfriend List Dude who would repeatedly pretend that something horrible would happen to him#and when he messaged back ten minutes later ''that's exactly how i wanted you to react. i was testing to see if you're really my friend''#and i would never think 'causing me to cry and panic as a test is a pretty dick move' but nowadays it's all i think about#very off-topic now. gonna stop typing.#sorry you got all these tags in response to mustard. i don't have a therapist and havent seen a real doctor since maybe sixth grade

no clue what's going on this year but I love seeing people freak out over the jury being terrible and biased as if this hasn't always been the case
#also it's often the foreign jury's fault that sweden's entry is boring & basic instead of something fun so really it's a full circle moment#again haven't listened to the song so that is not my opinion. just what I've seen people say#esc#yes I'm still hung up on the jury voting for the most basic man with the most boring song ever over yohio who was chosen by the people#yes it's been like ten years

Last night before my mother went to bed we checked out the latest bp solo release, just to kind of get it out of the way. At some point I remarked about how all of the members' solo videos had constant outfit changes. We went back to the beginning of the video and counted about 12 iirc. We ended up playing a fun little game where we watched a solo MV by each member where we just counted the seperate outfits. Solo had upwards of 15, On the Ground less than 10 and Lalisa a little over 10. tbc.
Afterwards we got curious about other female soloists and watched a video each from Hwasa, Sunmi, IU, Taeyeon and Nayeon. With the exception of IU and Taeyeon all videos had a similar outfit change count as the BP videos. Yet, since they were all much more like costumes (and a considerable number were also used on music show stages afterwards), they felt much more purposeful, whereas with BP it had an effect like watching a scene that has too many cuts for no reason. Just wanted to share.
that's kind of a fun experiment! i don't know that i've ever actually bothered to count outfit changes before (except for when i get paid to), but those numbers make sense to me. yg doesn't really give a shit about making cohesive mvs that have logical follow throughs or intention, especially not with bp, so it's not really surprising that you found their solos to not make as much sense.
#sunmi iu and taeyeon all put a TON of work into their solos so of course when you watch them back to back with a bp mv#you can very clearly tell the difference#kinda funny that we had two mega famous solos this month that were dead on arrival and the most bland performances ive ever seen#the styling for flower was generally pretty good and the song is better than any recent bp song but it's so......................#boring. dispassionate. almost juvenile? it's just kinda bad. a waste of good styling imo#blpk w#text#answers

Im so tired of Nothingburger music!!!
#i say as a Beatles fan#bc The Beatles DEFINITELY have some Nothingburger songs#KISS has some Nothingburger songs too#like#my music taste is not definitive. it isnt the most correct#i just want some fucking variety on the fucking radio#THERES MORE POPULAR MUSIC!!! THERE'S MORE THAN 3 SONGS#most giant corporations HAVE THE LICENSING TO PLAY WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY WANT#There are THOUSANDS of chart toppers!! PLAY THEM#Everlong. Smells like teen spirit. Micheal Jackson? Single Ladies? I DONT FUCKING KNOW#and one more thing#dont trust modern country music#that shit is straight up Republican Propaganda... Im not fucking kidding#like... You dont even need a strong grasp on media literacy to understand the blatant messaging in 2020s country music#its really fucking weird ngl#theres a difference between down home values and booze from the early naughts and whatever tf is going on now#morgan wallen..... Big red flags from that guy... makes me feel sick#also#side note#Benson Boone needs to give up on his dreams.... Im 70% sure I've heard two different songs from the guy#but they both sound the same. no music difference. no vocal difference. just random crying like a bitch. go back to your day job babe#sad and sentimental lyrics does not an emotion make... like... bruh... Rap has more emotion than Boone's bitchass sqwaking#except rap is deep and meaningful so that comparison isnt fair#music isn't supposed to be boring... Music was always about communicating something somehow#but modern music has it all confused and screwed up and twisted in the pursuit of money#idk#i hate Benson Boone anf Morgan Wallen and if I ever meet them I'll consider breaking their fingers
