#or I can make personal playlists/poetry recs

[moontxt]

Hi all. My rent is due in 3 days and I’m about $120 short. I’m really hoping once I get this paid I’ll be able to get back on my feet after being harassed and stolen from by my transphobic family. If anyone can help out at all, my venmo is theodorebasil26. I’m just really stressed and worried I promise I’ll stop once I have enough to survive<3

not only langblr music resources

people irl often ask me where the heck i find the music i listen to, so i figured i might as well make a handy resource masterpost!

Radio Garden: Listen to radio stations all over the world. You can save your favourite stations, explore radio playlists, and search for stations in specific countries or cities. Love this one.

You can download the app (android and apple) or listen via your preferred browser.

Radiooooo: Lets you choose a country, a decade, and a 'genre' (slow, fast, or weird) to listen to.

You can download the app (android and apple) or listen via your preferred browser.

Every Noise At Once: Sounds overwhelming - and tbh it can be. For this reason I personally prefer to look at 'Genres by Country', although there are many other interesting playlists to look at, such as 'We Built This City On' or 'The Sounds of Places'. You can find more if you scroll all the way to the bottom.

Unfortunately, due to the layoff of the creator of this site, some features are not available anymore.

This website is entirely based on Spotify.

Charts: Charts can be tricky if you're looking for music in a specific language due to the insufferable dominance of music in english in uh a lot of countries. It is nevertheless worth checking them out. Spotify charts or Top 40 Charts are your places to go.

Tunefind: Heard a song in a film or tv show that you enjoy but can't find it in the credits? This is the website for you! I use it when shazam fails me or when I'm at the cinema and can't use it or w/e. The songs sometimes come with a description of the corresponding scene for easy checking. Just very handy to have on hand.

Local events: Check for concerts etc. in your area. I know this is not an option for everyone for a bunch of reasons, but if it is for you, visiting local concerts can be a gold mine. I got like ten whole new songs in spanish and one in rapanui from one event I went to (it was like a culture fest with singing, dancing, and poetry). Also listening to live music just connects you differently to the art imo.

Friends & Acquaintances: Last but not least; sometimes my nosiness beats my social anxiety and I simply ask people what they like to listen to. If I'm being extra confident, I ask if they listen to music in languages other than english. Go forth and ask people about their music, go go go!!

Spotify recs:

LindsayDoesLanguages. Individual language playlists + more

Shameless self promo - my own account with individual language playlists. Also on YouTube !

700+ Languages. A playlist by Matthew Bofenkamp that contains one (1) song per language, and as it says on the tin, Matthew has so far collected songs in over 700 languages. Might be a good starting point for more music in your language of interest! Accompanying g0ogle spreadsheet with youtube links here.

hi I am making a mcu moon knight playlist, I think the killing moon by echo and the bunnymen fits mk so much, do you have any other song recs?

MCU Moon Knight playlist. Well, Echo and Bunnymen "Killing Moon" fits nicely as Mr. MacKay made it into Marc's alarm clock song.

It's such a Marc Spector mood.

I am not good at song recs for playlits.

I tend to associate songs that I've seen already associated. Like if I see a good music video for them. That song will forever be their song.

Of course I have all the sound track songs from the show on my playlist! How could I not?

Also a lot of songs by Oscar Isaac because that man has an amazing singing voice and his songs are so love sick and full of emotion. They make me think of a foggy Chicago morning after a rainy night, looking out at the city.

He has his own group called NightLab and they are all worth checking out. Some recs from them:

Fare Thee Well, Headaches, and Switchable City.

Let's not forget to mention Gaby Moreno!

"Luna de Xelajú" with Gaby and Oscar? Poetry. Pure poetry.

"O, Me" makes me think of Steven because it's so sweet and love sick.

You can find a lot of shows with the two of them doing a full set of duets and they are all 100% worth it.

If you are looking for more action songs and angsty songs, there are plenty of Moon Knight lists out there just dripping in them.

Sorry I am not much help. I really am not the person to ask about songs. But good luck to you!

Asher is a punk rocker who is forthright to a fault. He writes a diss track about politician Gwaine after Gwaine doesn't deliver on his campaign promises. When he starts getting asked about the song by the press, Gwaine goes to a show to see what the fuss is about. Ash sees him in the crowd and gets off stage to perform it directly in his face. So obviously Gwaine hires him as a sensitivity coach.

😍😘💕🌟🖋💞💗 Hello honey Can I have these for the OC game and please feel free to ask as many as you like for ikepri or ikevamp, else I will answer for both XD

Have a wonderful day 🥰🥰💟💟🤗

You mean for the self-ship game?? I WAS SO CLOSE TO BELIEVING I REBLOGGED THE WRONG THING KJHKJKJKJ ILY JULIE THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME RAMBLE

for me and napo ofc:

😍: Name your three favorite things about your f/o

only THREE I CANT DO THIS AAAAAAA let's see... Im going to say his compassion, his courage and his wit 🙈

😘: What’s your f/o’s favorite thing about YOU?

WHAT IS IT??? I DON'T KNOOOOW i guess i can cheat this one by looking at ikevamp mc in his route/story events and the ways we're similar and looking at what napo says he loves. hm. i guess he might find it adorable when im clumsy or when im trying to one-up him in expressing our love for each other ...........or when i share his values?? this is hard....

💕: Who’s the clingier one in the relationship?

him. no it's me. no it's him. no....

it has to be him!!! every time mc is swept away doing stuff for ppl he's all >:( - you know the expression, right? - and wants to drag her to his room and steal her attention all for himself.......i'd be clingy too but. he's equally as busy and i'd hate annoying him for attention....aaaaa.....

🌟: Who’s the tease in the relationship?

it's him. period. he's a bastard that has a good understanding of people and uses that to his advantage in his harmful, teasing little ways of driving you crazy and needy for him. he does it all, from simple things such as raising an object high over your head so you can't reach it to hitting you right in that one blind spot of your psyche that would make it feel so good to be honest with yourself when you refuse to say what you need out loud...

🖋: Who writes the other sappy poetry/cheesy love songs?

have you SEEN his stupid little self-insert love novel. he's cheesy!! he's all cheese!! have you seen his ingame LETTERS?? have you seen the scene where (well he lied but the intention is there) HE MAKES "PORTRAIT OF A SLEEPING NUNUCHE" ? he strikes me as a person who really wants to put his feelings into some creative form and gift it to his lover. which is good because, turns out im the same way *looks at my art and fics and playlists and*

💞: How do you both express affection?

acts of service and quality time are our mutual love languages!! in reality it would be hard for me to really express myself with my creative hobbies like i do now, so i imagine i'd rely on showing my love in other ways...such as doing things with him, paying attention to the things he loves doing and exploring new things with him, helping him out with whatever he needs help for if im capable, physical touch, giving him stuff that reminds me of him like song recs... as for him? i think pretty much the same, he's the type of person that wants to see you glow and meet your goals so he'll do his best to show you how much he wishes that for you and does his best to help you along the way!

💗: How do you two like to cuddle?

IN BED!! spooning so i can't escape unless he lets go.....

ASK ME MORE!!

xxx

16. compliment the person who sent you this number.

one of the smartest, coolest people i know (like go through their blog SERIOUSLY). she's really funny and well-versed in her memes ( i have no idea how u possess the talent to think/find those things and edit so quickly. like how????? the talont, the skills, i could never).

finder of cursed emojis and maker of the cutest crocheted (crocheyed?) baymax plushie, i bow down to you. i admire your strength to keep going no matter how long it takes. thank you for every time you've listened to my problems and for sharing (and for "bringing me" ramen soup (i hope they make a kanji one soon.... or not. the ramen one is really good too), you are a good friend<3333

16.what do you want most in the world right now?

self control?(......that sounds so bad dude). to be more conscious of whats happening instead of just letting things happen (u ever wanna get out of your body and shake yourself by the shoulders and scream 'bitch u have agency, u can make decisions, u can make actions. u r not some character doomed by the narrative or something'). motivation. i'd really like some motivation abt now. god i just wanna do something. anything really. just start something, or pick up something i left off, or idk finish things.

i really want to scream 'stop leaving shit and stop being scared of trying or doing something all the time. GOD' at myself

do something. yeah i really wanna do something ( she sounds like she cud be talking abt drugs. she is not. she's talking abt painting a mushroom (the fungus), 2 girls kissing,funny pictures of cats. binding a book, making funny/cute earrings (or just fucking completing her eng h.w for god's sake)

i'd really like to do things again. i miss it so badly u have no idea. i no longer want to pretend to be cool and mysterious and like, its hard to make me smile or amuse me. i wanna feel joy like that again. i wanna love passionately. i just want to learn and create something. i want to practice a skill and see it's effects bear fruits, uk. im so tired of laying around watching time pass me by and feeling regretful and disappointed and so so guilty for no reason. like can u do something different for MY sake plsss. im so tired and i dont wanna rest. im so tired of resting. i'd really like to stop being paralyzed and overwhelmed by the things i want to do. and instead just start something. or complete one thing i left off. just pick it up again. one thing. one thing for now.

so.. yeah, get my shit together and do something. thats what i wud like to do

23.favorite piece of clothing?

a frilly (kind of) white shirt with little bit lace on it that makes me feel like a pirate. a blue jacket (actually a hand-me-down-shirt), a handme down tshirt.

25. what’s the best personal gift someone could give you (playlist, homemade card, etc.?

honestly, i really love hugs. getting hugs or holding hands with people i love and care abt. but i guess that's not a 'personal gift'.

i really love notes or like letters. like write me something stupid and I would probably keep it forever.

i love being send memes, or articles or quotes or poetry(esp. if it like breaks something in me and puts me back together or something for a sec). ig i like getting written stuff. huh thats something i havent noticed abt myself.

i also like getting music recs or cute jimkis(jhumkis) or hanging earrings.

thankyou sumi for the ask<33333( calling you sumi without chechi added feels weird. should i call u chechi?)

[saetoru]

how are u so good at writing . reveal ur secrets pls . but seriously, what advice would u give ??

HAGDFKJSHDF this is so kind :( to be rly honest, i personally don't have the best relationship with my own writing (as a lot of writers in all realness) so i cant say im rly confident in any advice 😭 but idk hopefully these might help u improve at least—which is always the main goal anyway

i have some advice on writing fics here

and i have advice on writing smut here if u write nsfw

and some more below the cut:

over all i would say that reading all types of media can really help you find a voice in writing—poetry can help you make better metaphors and have a more "deep" / "meaningful" writing voice, reading novels can help you develop an ability to tell stories and build a detailed world, etc. but yeah u can read fanfic, articles, journals, poems, books, wtv u read rly can help u pick up not just ways to develop writing voices, but also you can just learn about the world u know ?? i been reading a few articles about the royal family in the news and its taught a lot about how the inner works of royalty is set up—things that u don't rly take the time to care to know, but in my head as i was reading it i was like omg if i ever wrote a royal au this would be so useful 💀 so yeah, very basic tip, but reading is always number one advice. and again, dont limit urself to one type of writing !! writing is so vast, u can pick up something from any genre of it

also have a certain position / place / set up when u write. i know it sounds kind of dumb at first like okay whats the difference between if i write at my desk vs at my couch but its big !! for me at least. i find that if i try to write anywhere else besides by desk im just more easily distracted and then it cuts my train of thought and my sentences come out choppy and then my flow is ruined. theres actually a big difference in my writing based on location. and having a playlist helps !! whether its of songs with lyrics that inspire you (such as sad songs for angst, romantic ones for something more intimate, etc.) or just plain classical music. classical music has been a game changer for me. (don't ask me for recs i couldn't name a single song or artist if u held a gun to my head LMAONSDFG i just search random spotify playlists)

as far as writing goes, i think its important to start writing when u have a vague ending in mind—you don't always have to have the middle parts figured out, but having an ending can help guide u as u write and pick up momentum and figure out more things to say what the middle part will be to get u to that ending. i almost never write anything without an ending in mind. sometimes its one line and sometimes its an idea / concept of an event that will happen. but yeah an ending can rly help u figure out how to structure a fic !!

figuring out if ur stronger in dialogue vs the commentary portion of writing (for lack of better words LMAO but yall know what i mean—i hope) can also help u !! i think im a bit more dialogue suited as a writer, so a lot of the things i wanna convey, like a character's feelings and thoughts, are shown thru dialogue more often. if u focus more on what ur good at, the other things will kind of come on their own so u can continue—like when i say something thru dialogue that needs some context, the next paragraph might be some background on the character that explains it. which is just basic writing i know skjdhfjgdf but sometimes i just write out like a full convo of dialogue nonstop and go back and actually add the "meat" in between to it afterward. and that's bc the dialogue comes easy to me u know ?? and the commentary / story building in between doesn't, so focusing on one forces me to have to incorporate the other and by then i've somewhat figured out what to write by then. << this method can also rly help u improve ur dialogue too tho if u struggle on that bc seeing a convo just non stop without any background info in between to break it can give u an idea of how it sounds and what the dynamic between two characters is.

also to help with dialogue u can have a convo with yourself out loud 😭 i know that sounds dumb and weird BUT TRUST ME IT RLY HELPS KSHDGDF SOBSOB sometimes u just gotta talk to urself to have a convo flow !! and that way u can also really hear the words and know if they're a bit cheesy or cringe (we have all wrote a cringey dialogue here and there, no shame in it LMAO) but yeah 😭 talking to urself helps

i always suggest breaking things up into scenes that build into a plot. if ur having issues connecting parts of a story, just break it up into scenes. like my shin fic, if u read it (u don't have to for the example dw) but it was like literally like this in my drafts: shin and reader in shop, shin gets upset. shin and reader at home, slight confrontation / sex. shin + waka convo. shin hospital. KJASHGEHF (this sounds so dumb out of context LMAO) but yeah if u do that and then individually write those scenes out, its rly not much different than like maybe writing a drabble, which is far more manageable. and then u can connect them, and boom u have a full length fic !! but yeah that's something that helps me since im still developing my skills to write longer works

also rly discussing characters with friends, reading up on their information, and staying open to discussions that analyze characters is rly important !! we all have our own takes of a character so its okay if they're not always aligning with urs, but sometimes they can help u rly figure out a character and what u feel is their back story and the focal point of who they are—and the more u understand a character, the more describing them and portraying them will be easier. and trust me when u rly feel like u understand a character, the words don't stop, either when ur giving them dialogue or when ur just giving extra back story / commentary.

so yeah that was a bit rambly skhsd im rly sorry about that but i hope that helps a bit !! tysm for the kind ask and it rly did mean a lot to me <3 good luck on ur writing !!

Greetings besties and beloveds! Next month, on May 18, I’ll be celebrating quite a personal milestone: my 50th birthday! (Yes, I am an old dinosaur. And yes, I share a birthday with Jack Kline, and I love that!)

I’ve spent over half my life active in media & music fandom and thought this would be a good excuse to hold a combination birthday/follower/content creator celebration, as I’ve also recently passed 700 followers for this ridiculous little blog. Getting into SPN after all these years has certainly been quite an experience, so now I want to do something to help share, promote and encourage more love from and within this wonderful community.

This event will run from May 18 - May 22. All forms of fannish creative content are welcome: art, fic, graphics, vids, poetry, rec lists on a theme…I’ll share it all! You do not have to follow me to participate. I’d just ask you to follow these rules:

Please @ me or use the tag #hawkland50th to make sure I see it so I can reblog it.

No w*ncest or underage content.

NSFW is okay if contained in an offsite link (ie, a Twitter link for art, an AO3 link for fic).

Content featuring (or even crossed over with) one of my other/past fandoms would be awesome, too! If we crossed paths first thanks to Law & Order SVU, Gorillaz, The Good Place, The A-Team, The Police or Foo Fighters fandom please feel free to participate as well and I’d love to see it!

Themes/prompts: 

I want to keep this fairly open-ended and up for interpretation/as you will. Those of you who follow me know my favorite SPN things are Cas, Destiel, dadstiel, and angelnatural. So really, anything celebrating those things would be awesome! I’m always especially tickled when someone is inspired by my own fannish works, so if you feel inspired to create a “remix” or companion piece to any of my own fic or artwork, I’d be completely over the moon. 

As someone who was a tremendous fan of Taylor Hawkins and given I’m still working through a lot of emotions from his recent passing, I’d also love to see some content inspired by his music and spirit. To that end I’ve put together a Spotify playlist of some of my favorite songs featuring Taylor, from both his solo projects and the Foo Fighters. If they may perhaps inspire an edit or serve as a fic prompt, that would be incredible. You can listen to the playlist here. 

I’ve also put a few color palettes I like as inspiration for art or graphics edits, which you can find below the cut. Use any of them for any day of this celebration!

I can’t wait to see what you come up with, and thank you for your friendships, encouragement and inspiration!

Color palettes (if you work in traditional media like I do, don’t worry about exact matches or anything, just use the general feels if any of them inspire you!)

okay finished evermore so time for final thoughts. i liked evermore. kind of. a few songs i’ll probably go back to, wouldn’t relisten to the entire album. i don’t wanna listen to folklore again. for me it’s like. okay. singers don’t HAVE to have substance. you don’t HAVE to get super deep with your lyrics. which like. frankly i don’t think she did there. which is fine! but if you’re not gonna get deep you need to have. something else to keep people interested. beats. instrumentals. something interesting. the problem for me with folklore is that it’s SOOO stripped down. the entire thing. and like, there’s songs and even albums like that that i like! but there’s substantive lyrics to make up for stripped down everything else. you get to sit with the poetry of the words. i just. don’t think twift’s lyrics can stand on their own in that way. in evermore the lyrics feel ever so slightly more substantive (although i. arguably still think they’re pretty weak personally i’m SO sorry) but the sound is just Ever so slightly more produced and ever so slightly more engaging, which i think is what makes it more enjoyable to me. all of that being said i do know of a TON of artists that are doing what taylor’s doing better and with less recognition don’t even ask me for recs just listen to any indie playlist for proof.

*reminder that this is a personal opinion on it you’re perfectly allowed to like it thank youuuuu.

“Can’t you at least pretend like you think I’m funny?”

“Yeah, that costs extra.”

“And you scolded Jisoo for exploiting me,” Jungkook bit back.

“Well, you said you’re all mine to exploit, didn’t you?” you hummed, scrunching your nose. “You are my boyfriend after all, right?”

AHHHHHH I DIDNT MEAN TO MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE YOU WERE LETTING US DOWN. YPU TOTALLY DONT HAVE TO MAKE A PLAYLIST. THE RECS ARE GOOD ENOUGH. PLEASE BE KIND TO YOURSELF AND TAKE IT EASY 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

OH MY GOSH, PLEASE ALSO DON'T PANIC. I mean, I know I take on too much, it's something I'm working on. But, like... I will keep in mind that if I ever do feel like making a playlist, some lovely people on the internet might be interested while they try very hard not to pressure me whatsoever.

(Teasing is so difficult to come across via text, isn't it? It kinda sucks when you're a teasing kind of person, like me... and perhaps you too...)

But (and can I just say that I am highly flattered and touched at your efforts to let me know who you are without telling me who you are? Like, I can identify which anon you are, and that's so kind since I know a lot of you are either shy or simply enjoying the fun. Thank you. <3), uh. If you do end up liking The Civil Wars, I can totally, 100% do recs. Recs is def a thing I can do. Playlists... I think I would try to make them too perfect. And, like, music is so subjective (rather like poetry), and... yeah.
