May your hardened heart be woken By the soft and distant song Of all you left here unspoken All the shards we keep stepping on - Take this body home Take this body home Call the wind, and let her know Take this life outgrown Take this broken soul Call the stars, call them all And take it high, take it far, take it home
#svsss#luo binghe#shen qingqiu#bingqiu#sqq#lbh#scum villain#heard the song Take This Body Home by Rose Betts and it nearly took me out at the knees#it really really suits sqq's self-detonation in hua yue city right? i'm not the only one feeling this?#considered adding some literal shards for them to be stepping on - since sqq's sword explodes - but i couldn't quite make it work#anyway this has been playing like a music video in my head for the past couple days highly recommend listening to the song#if you haven't heard it before#can't get over the absolute dissonance between how sqq views this scene and how everyone else must feel about it#like to him he's just completing his plan - hopefully keeping lbh from destroying a city with energy imbalance and escaping The Plot#nbd! he and sqh have planned it all out it's FINE :) off he goes!#meanwhile everyone who loves him - including lbh who worked years to get back to him and is trying to work through a lot of grief#and resentment and doubt and longing and... - watches him DIE in FRONT OF THEM#just collapse while coughing up blood sword disintegrating energy completely consumed#like holy hell sqq could you traumatize the people around you any more???#no wonder lbh went a little bit crazy after that like my man was already not in a great place but what the fuck#lbh watches his shizun presumably sacrifice himself for him ONCE AGAIN like after he's finally Gotten Strong his shizun is STILL#coming to harm in an effort to make up for his shortcomings#my art#most of the time out here drawing what amounts to muppets and then sometimes i get the urge for this and just need to cover everyone in blo

Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance - Traverse Town
#kingdom hearts dream drop distance#khddd#traverse town#scenery#my gif#trying my hand at giffing the worlds of this game despite the lack of a first person view (something i'm very upset about)#so i have to obtain and edit these shots in a very awkward manner#all while constantly being shoved around by my dream eaters#i'm so serious when i say making this set was really really frustrating lol#i can't find a free roaming camera mod or anything else that would be helpful for me#but i'll keep at it because i love looking at still shots of video game environments#and being able to share it with other people who enjoy it too#ANYWAYS traverse town is so beautiful in this game they added so many gorgeous areas with pretty glowing lights#i like the wacky whimsical mail room too and how there's this entire secret workshop hidden beneath that weird mailbox haha#the world really does feel magical and dreamy especially with its updated music#just realized the stars in the first gif are moving which is strange

every day I keep remembering more times that blorbo from my bands has said something blasphemous or heretical (always confuse the difference) or worn a pentagram accessory and it just keeps getting worse. how can something that God has used for so much good in my life (improving my body image, getting me truly interested in writing again, giving me an outlet I have needed and words to relate to, etc) now be something I have to give up?
#and the weirdest part is that I'm totally fine with writing stuff about them or like the music video aus or any fanfics I had in progress#like that isn't making me feel like this#even interacting with fandom stuff isn't. so idk what's going on#I was feeling fine about it until I remembered the patch jacket that has occult designs on it#I'm so sorry to all my fandom followers btw y'all did not sign up for me having constant religious crises

MAN I'm seriously so sad about season 2. Bc I wish act 2 had the same emotional impact on me as it appears to have on so many others. But rn I'm just somewhere between unable to care and actively annoyed by some of those writing decisions. Seriously the more I think about it the less I like it.
#act 3 come through please 🙏#I don't think it can salvage some of the things I have contentions with but still... please...#don't ask me about the silco vander flashback with jinxs + vis mom#or the bizzare choice to do so much of the storytelling through this weird music video format they've got going on#completely stripping it of the weight these plot beats could've had if they were... normal scenes#and also missing the point of how the music was used in season 1 and what made it so effective#bc it was complementary to instead of replacing the storytelling#seriously don't ask me about these things I will spontaneously implode on the spot#whyyyyy would they recontextualize season 1 like this with that flashback#to me it kind of ruins the character dynamics and themes in s1. it just makes me so sad you have no idea#also what even are they doing with Jinx rn for real#aaarghhhh just... so many things that are making me scratch my head#also I'm so terribly sorry but I could not care less about Isha sorry lol#like i get that its sad conceptually but she was such a non-character that i struggle to feel impacted at all#same with sky tbh. i thought her role in s1 was alright but there is so much emotional weight put on her now#in terms of her relationship to Viktor but that was barely established so it's weird to have her around#and clearly you're supposed to care but they haven't given me much reason to#isha and sky were non-characters just there to die to further the development of other characters#they didn't really have anything going on on their own and that's just a type of character and plot device that does nothing for me#also i thought the war between zaun and piltover + internal struggles in zaun bc silcos gone would be the main focus#but that stuff seems so sidetracked rn#also sorry i dont like what they did with vander and warwick either. that man should've stayed dead lol#it honestly just makes his death feel less impactful and i dont know what this is supposed to do for the story or the themes???#that just feels like a pointless plotline that is taking up time that could've been spent on other things#i just... i could go on like this for a while like there are so many things that just puzzle me#it's so weird considering how tight and thematically consistent season 1 was#let's see where act 3 goes but... i kinda have a bad feeling about it ngl#obv im glad others are enjoying it and this is just my opinion! also a lot of this are probs just my personal tastes anyway#arcane spoilers

want to give my two cents on the AI usage in the maestro trailer--
i think seventeen doing a whole concept that is anti-AI is very cool, especially as creatives themselves i think it's good that they're speaking up against it and i hope it gets more ppl talking about the issue. i also understand on a surface level the artistic choice (whether it was made by the members, the mv director, or whoever else), to directly use AI in contrast to real, human-made visuals and music in order to criticize it. i also appreciate that they clearly stated the intention of the use of AI at the beginning of the video
however, although i understand it to an extent, i do not agree with the choice to use AI to critique AI. one of the main ethical concerns with generative AI is that it is trained on other artists' work without their knowledge, consent, or compensation. and even when AI generated images are being used to critique AI, it still does not negate this particular ethical concern
the use of AI to critique also does not negate the fact that this is work that could have been done by an actual artist. i have seen some people argue that it's okay in this context because it's a critique specifically about AI, and it is content that never would have been done by a real artist anyway because it doesn't make sense for the story they're trying to tell. but i disagree. i think you can still tell the exact same story without using AI
and in fact, i would argue that it would make the anti-AI message stronger if they HAD paid an artist to draw/animate the scenes that are supposed to represent AI generated images. wouldn't it just be proof that humans can create images that are just as bad and nonsensical and soulless as AI, but that AI can't replicate the creativity and beauty and basic fucking anatomy that's in human-made art?
it feels very obvious this was not just a way to cut corners and costs like a lot of scummy people are using AI for. ultimately it was a very intentional creative decision, i just personally think it was a very poor one. and even if some ethical considerations were taken into account before this decision, i certainly don't think all of them were. at the very least i feel like the decision undermines the message they want to convey
i would also like to recognize that i myself am not an artist, and i have seen some artists that are totally on board with the use of AI in this specific context, so clearly this is not a topic that is cut and dry. but generative AI is still new, and i think it's important to keep having these conversations
#melia.txt#also want to add that as musicians svt are more directly threatened by AI generated audio than they are by AI generated images#and yet AI generated images is what was used in the video#and i guess the MV director/production company are the ones directly responsible for putting that in there#whether it was their initial idea or not#and they work in a visual medium so perhaps that makes it more 'fair' but idk it just feels like#the commentary is around music. which makes sense. and using human produced music/sound#but then taking advantage of AI images#idk just feels weird#i mean i don't like it either way#like i said in the main post i understand the intention behind the creative decision#and i'm still happy svt are speaking against ai at all i do think overall they're doing a good thing here#i just don't agree with the creative decision they/the production company/whoever made#edit: deleted the part about not boycotting svt over this bc ppl were commenting about boycotting bc of the 🛴 stuff#i meant specifically /I/ am not calling for a boycott because of specifically the ai stuff#was just trying to make a general point that im not making this post bc i want to sabatoge svt or whatever#bc kpop fans love to pull that catd whenever u criticize anything#so yeah just removed that bit bc i dont want ppl getting confused what im talking about#respect ppl boycotting because of scooter/israel stuff but thats not what this post was intended to be about#edit 2: turning off reblogs bc im going to bed and having asomewhat controversial post up is not gonna help me sleep well lol#may or my not turn rb's back on in the morning

potentially controversial personal opinion I think arcane s2 would be getting a lot more flack if it wasn't for all the shipping fodder and shiny objects packed in there. convinced you could spoon-feed toddler upchuck to half of the population as long as you go Brrrr here comes the yaoi airplane
#Like season 2 is just Not good#after the hype died down I realized this#character assassination Concepts that desperately needed fleshing out Important developments being glossed over etc#it's a gorgeous show and the writing isn't egregious especially compared to a lot of what's out there but comparing it to season 1#is like putting a bichon frise next to a Timber wolf writing-wise#nothing in s2 felt as visceral as it did in s1#I don't feel any desire to rewatch it at all meanwhile you could ask me at any point if I wanted to watch s1 again and I'd be like Fuck yes#even if I'd just seen it again 5 days before#if you don't give a fuck about shipping s2 feels like a drag at a lot of points#nothing will make me fume more than the fact Vi's lesbian crash-out pitfighting emo phase was contained to a single music video#I WANTED TO SEE THAT SHIT! show us her at her lowest!! make us stew in it and feel it with her!!#don't just give us 2 minutes of her kicking ass with occasional emo shit in between#Viktor and Jayce have an interesting story though I will say that. The arcane shit was really cool#but that's it. it was cool. I felt nothing. the height of my emotional experience was just That's cool.#meanwhile in 2021 I was on the verge of bawling my eyes out at multiple points getting goosebumps#feeling genuine dread/having my heart race#it was exhilarating#Rant over. no hate if you like s2 of jayvik I'm very aware that this is just my experience and that a lot of people adore s2#and I already didn't really care about Viktor or Jayce in season 1. I was more interested in the undercity n stuff#And war arcs are not my favorite they've been done So many times. so there's that too

sabrina carpenter is just one of those artists where i physically cant understand the appeal. like i just dont get anything going on here. it's not that i dislike her i just straight up don't understand her.
#why is she doing 2000s era stage gay for music videos. why does every picture i see of her have the scariest photoshop on earth. why#does her music make me feel like i'm trapped in a room with no windows.

Oh.
#according to facebook memories (why do i even have that still??) 12 years ago today i saw Linkin Park for the first time 🥺#in a few days it'll be 10 years since the last time i saw them#and. hm. there's a lot that surfaced this days since clancy dropped and i'm a bit more emotional / sensitive than usual#and this is. well. making me extremely sad.#12 years ago. i remember as if it was yesterday. i cling to that day so much and i'm scared of forgetting about it#i wonder how 14 yo me would've reacted if she knew.#they were my first gig ever! i remember the 2nd song was given up and the people around us started moshing pretty hard.#so much that my shoe came off and my dad had to shield me while i crawled and looked for it hahaha#it was so fun! i didn't really know that was a thing#that day was the first time they played Lies Greed Misery - it had been released just the day before#my videos are SO blurry but i still have them all saved 🥹#idk i've been in some typa mood these past days. not necessarily bad at all but.#me and a couple friends had a very important conversation 2 nights ago which was GOOD but. the bad thing about letting everything bottle up#is that once you spill it's hard to deal with. and yeah this is. idk. i'm just venting here like. ignore me.#it's just really hard for me. i miss him terribly and i'm really scared for myself because i *know* i'm back in the loop#and it feels so hopeless sometimes. maybe this is super silly but i'm so thankful that Clancy came out now because OH BOY i need it#maybe it's not the best strategy to put so much faith? importance? in like. music and other people but#man. i genuinely don't know if i'd be here if not for certain songs/artists etc#idk I'm rambling lol. i might delete this later#probably. maybe. i try not to talk too much about this here because i tend to deal alone but. sometimes it's nice to send things to the void#anyways. support your favs. talk to your friends - even if you much rather not. don't be like me and let things rot inside.#🤍#darya talks to herself

I have so much stuff I want to be doing but I've been listening to my video game music playlist which is all fun and good until you remember that it's a devilish trap invented purely to make me play my favorite games again. I want to be writing and drawing and playing my new fun cool game interest I don't need to start ANOTHER playthrough of terraria calamity mod I don't I don't I don't
#tide of consciousness#Antarctic Reinforcement... get out of my head I don't have time for you !!!#I'm not one who typically plays video games for like awe moments or feeling really epic or whatever#It's cool and fun just not what I'm focused on#But terraria calamity is such a cool game to winnn the music is so fucking goood FUCKKK#It sucks that so many ppl were such huge assholes to DM DOKURO or whatever happened I wasn't into it then#That guy makes such good music. Calamity mod is 50% about the music 2 me#It's just so fun and cool#But I'm not. Going to play it again. Yet. Not Right Now

I haven't posted here in forever and I don't know how much I will still now even going forward. Post limit sucks and I don't even know what I actually want out of this website because fandom across the board is just dead to me and capitalism sucks and politicians suck and I'm honestly just so fucking exhausted with everything. Even the visual designs of the world we live in are just so boring and soul-sucking and corporate. I seek to be the eternal enemy of that, and douse the world in eyebleed colors and sounds most peculiar. But dude I am just so exhausted. I'm just so tired of all the violence, hatred, greed, and suffering in this world. The glorification of cruelty and ignorance. There is always beauty and love, always. But boy, it's been rough lately. October was a hell of a month, both incredible (got to see my favorite band twice in a row, as well as attend and play an incredible experimental music festival) and awful (lost my grandmother whom I have always been very, very close with).
And honestly dude I just always feel like a side of beef in general, like too little butter over too much bread, and this stuff isn't making it any easier. But I'm hanging in there and know the only way out is through, and the only way through is with love.
#personal#art#video art#noise#projection art#the polyester friends#vent#dude i don't even know#like what's the point of making tags#oh boy i hope someone finds me bitching about existence#but also still trying to remain hopeful#even though i feel absolutely fucking flattened by everything#only resentment i have is towards the rich#and the conservatives#but more the rich than anything else#i'm just so tired of all of this i spend so much time dissociating listening to music because jesus christ

i hate hyperfixating on real people
#this is abt vater boris#look i know you can't control what or who you hyperfixate on#but i still can't help but feel creepy for having a hyperfixation on an actual person#i've made a playlist on spotify that's literally just a bunch of different episodes from podcasts they were featured / interviewed in#in one of those episodes the hosts asked vater why they go by 'vater boris' and 'ben scardo' interchangeably#and they said it was because of a stalker issue they experienced while on tour with will wood and the tapeworms#which prompted will to make them come up with a stage name since he didn't want their real name to be out there#in case it ever happened again#even though i knew that all i was doing was listening to their music and podcasts they've been on#and watching instagram playlists of videos they took of their pets#i still couldn't help but feel like i was part of the problem#i'm not doing anything that would be considered stalkerish but theres still that voice in my head calling me one#is this relatable to anybody or am i just being weird

Today was such a good day that I keep being shocked at how good it was and I almost start crying
Is this what having a normally functioning brain feels like?
Apparently the cure to my anxiety and occasional melancholy is a band of old dudes playing 90s country music at the church picnic, getting to hold my friends' brand new baby girl for like 30 straight minutes while she slept, and rain. Just heavy, heavy rain and thunder
Feels like it's been ages since I've had a day as hopeful and happy as today 🥹
#moral of the story: music and community are like drugs to the brain or something#i've cried like twenty times today but for once it wasn’t me being sad#i cried at like 3 different videos of post malone singing country music on tiktok#something about these rappers turned country artists with the BEST taste in songs to cover... it makes me emo#i've never liked rap but the second they show some love for alan jackson or george strait or randy travis... i'm a wreck#need a post malone country album ASAP#praying this energy continues the rest of the week cause i feel like a new person
