REVIEW: Arkells - Campfire Chords (2020)

ARKELLS – Campfire Chords (2020) March, 2020:  the world came to a sudden halt as the Covid-19 pandemic spread from city to city, nation to nation.  We isolated in our homes and offices to keep our loved ones safe, and we waited it out.  For bands, everything stopped.  Gigs were cancelled, and recordings had to be done remotely from home.  On the bright side, this resulted in some brilliant music…

I'm reading a 90's fantasy novel and they seriously just disappeared through the Bermuda triangle.

drew a whole bunch of random characters to get used to drawing again after a bit

characters started being picked from "what have I been reading or watching lately", went into friend requests, ended on me browising drawthreads for ideas

I hope Esteban becomes a self serving bastard (so very very affectionate) for the rest of the season

It was wild because the first time I watched Clone Wars over the summer, we got to the Mon Cala episodes and I was like, “…is Kit Fisto kinda hot? am I weird for being a little thirsty for Kit Fisto?” and then I came on this website and realized no. a lot of us are quite thirsty for Kit Fisto actually. anyway where’s my Kit novel.

Taka really is Kalle's biggest fan <3

REVIEW: Arkells - "Hand Me Downs" (2019 digital single) ft. Frank Turner

ARKELLS – “Hand Me Downs” (2019 iTunes) “Oh-oh-oh!” sings Max Kerman in his most anthemic of choruses.  “When your head gets dizzy and you can’t get right.  Oh-oh-oh!  But you push on through, don’t be denied.”  This single from Rally Cry is an obvious highlight. Kerman has always stood up for the little guy, in the face of banks and landlords.  “First of the month gets you stressed out, and…

Working on my new "back up with me" cue. She has a really robust back up behavior, and she is comfortable doing what I cue from heel position. So when I would tell her to back up, she would rocket backward without me...cause most of the time I'm asking for her to do it independently! So now instead of saying that, I give her my new "yo something is about to happen" word (also using it to work on our position changes in motion) and start wiggling 😂 it's working much better, but clearly still a work in progress!

if there’s one thing i gotta credit republicans on it’s the ability to completely miss the point.

i thought our economy was in shambles and nobody can afford a house or food etc etc? we have to elect trump because the haitians are eating our cats now? what does that have to do with anything? how’s he going to prevent it? it’s already animal cruelty and would probably be considered poaching in most towns, also causing a public disturbance?

[shadoedseptmbr]

not gonna make this a political blog, but it is my journal blog and i'm not gonna lie, having bon iver sing one of the most rallying of the songs that came out of the union side of the civil war, a song about ending tyranny and oppression, the things we were supposed to be is...alot. (very short clip just at the end)e youtube has the whole thing here

I think I have Aayla's retirement plan solidified for obedience and rally. I've spent a lot of time talking with friends and I really think it's time.

She is starting to appear a little more stiff in the mornings and is starting to struggle more and more with weird phases of utility.

AKC

Aayla is entered in a trial in two weeks for UB/OB, if she does very very well I may try and finish the year out to see if she can get her UDX. Yet I would expect her to have a utility Q rate of higher than 50% so that means over the next two weeks she needs to Q 3/5 times she has between this weekend and in two weeks. If she doesn't, then she is retired from AKC obedience and I will not enter her again.

I will then start entering her in rally only to get her RACH. She needs 9 more 3Qs, and she should be able to get that by May of next year. Then she will be retired from AKC rally. She really loves rally and I don't mind doing rally longer with her.

ASCA

I have a trial this weekend and then nationals planned. Aayla will most likely get her OTCh at a pretrial at nationals and compete in utility finals as her last obedience finals. I will not continue on to Superdog next year. After that I will not long travel for any obedience and we will only compete locally at her home training ring until she gets her UDX, then she will be 100% retired from obedience.

Aayla will continue in Rally until she gets her RTCH title. Depending on how she is doing I may be trying to qualify for rally finals next year, if we get in we will attend nationals for one last time for Rally and maybe Nosework/tracking. Then she will be retired from ASCA Rally.

----

All of these are the longest she will go in these sports. I am prepared to retire her sooner if needed. We have Nosework to pick up and I hope to find someone to help with tracking.

She loves training and working still and it's breaking my heart that it's her body that is slowing her down.

i dunno if this has been asked, but:

ninja & co's love languages?

Kai: Giving- Words of Affirmation Receiving- Physical Touch (Has zero problems giving peps talks + hyping up those he cares about + telling others directly how he feels. Needs "physical" proof when it comes to others caring about him though, which is why he's such a hugger)

Jay: Giving- Quality Time Receiving- Physical Touch/Words of Affirmation (Loves carving out any moment he can for those he cares about, which usually then leads into opportunities for physical contact and words of affirmation. Can be a somewhat overwhelming combination if he's not mindful, though.)

Cole: Giving- Physical Touch Receiving- Words of Affirmation (Is not always good with words himself, so tries to express that he cares via physical touch and the occasional gift, although that can sometimes send mixed signals. Needs to be directly told by other parties that they care about him, otherwise he starts spiraling with doubts.)

Zane: Giving- Quality Time/Acts of Service Receiving- Acts of Service (Is always opening up for others to join him in whatever activities he's partaking in or goes out of his way to try and make someone's day a little easier if he can. But what shows him that others care about him is when they return his eagerness to help, even when he doesn't -or can't- ask for it)

Nya: Giving- Acts of Service Receiving- Gifts (Isn't really about all the touchy-feely talky stuff -not all the time, at least- and cherishes her alone time, so demonstrates her care by providing help or assistance where and when she can in whatever way she can. In return, receiving a gift with a lot of thought or intent behind it will immediately take her out at the soul)

Lloyd: Giving- Words of Affirmation Receiving- Quality Time (The best and most effective way he knows to make sure someone knows he cares is to tell them, and tell them constantly if he has to. In return, anyone going out of their way just to be in his presence and appreciate his existence...well, that speaks for itself)

Jesse: Giving- Words of Affirmation Receiving- Physical Touch (This boy's such a hopeless romantic that he's probably covering every single language at some point, but Words of Affirmation is the his ultimate go-to when trying to get his point across...even if those words are in the form of flowers. Same could be said when it comes to receiving, but having the physical contact of those he cares about is the biggest clincher for him)

Antonia: Giving- Physical Touch Receiving- Acts of Service (Similar to Cole, she is a very physically-inclined individual, showing her love in the form of wordless gestures that say everything and reassuring contact accompanying the things she does say. And though she doesn't always show it, she really, really appreciates it whenever someone close to her helps her out of a bad situation)

Harumi: Giving- Quality Time Receiving- Physical Touch/Gifts (Being able to spend time with those she values means a lot to her, along with receiving comforting physical gestures and gifts with meaningful intent. But, such fragile things are quick to fade away...)

Olivia: Giving- Words of Affirmation Receiving- Gifts/Acts of Service (Is loud, direct, and blatant with what she feels, almost to the point of completely missing what other people are saying. Is somewhat immune to receiving other types of languages, but when it comes to receiving gifts, she knows that time, thought, and care was put into it, and Acts of Service are proof that she's being heard)

Miranda: Giving- Quality Time Receiving- Words of Affirmation (Likes doing her own thing but likes having company while she does it. If you deemed worthy enough to enter her circle, you've made it. When it comes to receiving, primarily thrives on Words of Affirmation, but a really, really potent gift will also probably have the strength to send her careening into tears–something she doesn't do often)

Pixal: Giving- Gifts Receiving- Physical Touch (All those mechs and suits and upgrades she designs? That is the apex of the physical manifestation of how much she adores you, put to nuts and bolts instead of words because words are much more complicated than reverse engineering a giant submarine in less than twelve hours. Physical Touch doesn't seem like it'd be a big deal to her, but being reminded that yes she is real and yes what she feels is real is very therapeutic <3)

Skylor: Giving- Quality Time/Acts of Service Receiving- Words of Affirmation (When it comes to receiving, any sort of kindness towards her will melt her heart immediately, but genuine Words of Affirmation are the quickest way to turn her to mush. So when giving, she tries her best to capitalize on what little free time she has to make the most of being with those she adores above all else, whether that contributing to the cause or sharing new experiences with another)

Sunni: Giving- Words of Affirmation Receiving- Quality Time/Physical Touch (The queen herself of positive Words of Affirmation, will absolutely shower those she cares about with reassurances and kick any of their self-doubts to the curb. In turn, others going out of their way to seek time with her + give her physical reassurance will send her over the moon)

Harleigh: Giving- Quality Time/Physical Touch Receiving- Acts of Service (Takes a long time to even begin to care about people let alone express that care, but the first signs of it are when she starts not trying to actively avoid people. Due to being a ghost, her focusing long enough to give you some kind of physical reassurance is also a huge step for her. In turn, doing anything nice for her especially without her asking will probably make her blue screen for a good two hours snksnksnk)
