WALLOWS LINES THAT MAKE ME FEEL

• 'my life's going by, but it's just begun.'

• 'all the times that feel like everything, when nothing really happens at all.'

• 'all the things you don't wanna let go, you wanna look back on in the cold.'

• 'there's a time you'll seek out a disguise, when you think people hate you the most. and it gets worse before it gets better, that's one thing that i've come to know. just so you know.'

• 'you've turned into someone that i never knew.'

• 'pick up the pieces, finding a place in the world to be.'

• 'when shit gets hard, don't worry about me.'

• 'laugh when i hit the ground.'

• 'we were wanting to grow up every weekend, now we're watching the moments as they're leaving.'

• 'don't let them take away all the games we've played; go on and take a bow, 'cause it's over now.'

• 'we can get up and try to feel ok again.'

• 'you & i, we grew up in the suburbs, now you're gone, the city's done a number. it is not the same without you around.'

• 'am i so thin that you can see through?' the fact that such a hit of a line comes from one of their most batshit crazy songs is so funny to me

• 'thought i saw your shadow under the door - just a trick of the light i've seen before.'

• 'what age would you call your prime? we've been at this for a long time.'

• 'i can't make up another drawn-out vague excuse.'

• 'is my silence deafening you?'

• 'i hope you're happy with the things that you've got, and i'll still remember all the bright parking lots.'

• 'heart on my sleeve, i just can't believe that i wasn't doing enough.'

• 'let's invite your friends for a backseat drive.'

• 'it's not a crime if you take what's given - it's just a crime if you're paying for it.'

"what's your favourite band?"

me:

(to my confused people (if any), green bottom right is "pulling leaves off trees" and yellow at the top is "tell me that it's over")

(I'm working on making ones for their other singles too so heehee)

Last year I listened to a worldbuilding podcast that was very queercore hopepunk (2/3 of the hosts were straight...) and I have kind of come to detest the ideology, as well as all these nitty little microgenres. the podcast itself was not bad per say, but it was so utterly bland and the kind of writing advice that almost seems to discourage people from making challenging or transgressive art via prioritization of escapism as the ultimate goal for a fantasy work + the repeated adage that "realism is no excuse". You can set out to make a cozy, fluffy, fantasy world where people never behave in evil ways, are ever selfish or cruel, and never fight over resources and ideology, but if your love for human beings is conditional on human behavior only ever being perfect and good all the time then idk if you actually have much love for human beings at all. it's the kind of advice that encourages easily digestible fluff over all, and if you actually internalize it your never going to get out of it the power to write something like The Dispossessed, Left Hand of Darkness, or Parable of the Sower. is all.

One Year of Only Friends ○ Ray Pakorn Edition Episode Six ○ original air date September 16th, 2023

oh i never posted this (cuickly cleans up the speech bubbles and format)

that one episode where sara made gumball into a superhero. um. molly threw herself at him, out of the blue, fully trusting he would save her, and before we figure out that its because sara has changed the narrative so everyone believes he is a real true superhero, um, i mean.

he did drag molly out of hell once

here, i added it. because the way my heart stops when she says "save me! like you saved-" and i think shes gonna say something like the shit in the comic. is good. share it with me.

a day out on the town!

I couldn't get this little missing scene out of my head!!! I mean how do we go from Niko asking him if he knows it's okay to be gay to just straight up asking if he wants to kiss boys in the next episode?! I think perhaps they did have some discussions between the episodes, and while Edwin was still figuring himself out, Niko was able to suss him out for certain.

"Niko, I am afraid you might have misunderstood me earlier at the library today... Of course, I know that two boys can - what did you say?- Ah, "like like each other." I may have died in 1916, but my politics certainly did not stagnate there. I simply meant... while, yes, Monty and I are both boys, that is just... not where my... proclivities lie."

Niko stares at him with what can only be described as gentle confusion and asks "Okay... so you're saying you don't want to date boys?" Edwin tries not to panic because he can hear the doubt in her question.

"Precisely. Frankly, I do not think courting as a whole is in the books for me. I never truly understood the appeal, " he explains. Niko looks at him with poorly hidden sadness at this comment.

"Well, that's toootally okay. You don't have to date anybody if you don't want to! But... I really think you should still read some of my manga. They can be very informative."

i made wallows bracelets!! :D

the ends are super messy but the elastic i have isn't great so i've had to knot them sm times to make sure they'll hold 😭

• the 'wallows' bracelet is inspired by one they have for sale as merch - i used the same colours & pattern but added the smiley faces myself (and put actual capital Ls instead of trying to pass off capital Is as lowercase Ls which really annoyed me about the official ones 😭)

• i made the wish me luck bracelet because i have big exams coming up in about 3 days (!!!!) and i thought it would be a funny little thing to wear in exams lol - the colours are inspired by the cover of remote - mostly black with a rectangle of brighter colours.

i'm going to make more wallows bracelets at some point (and i'll post pics!) but for now i'm going to make some for friends and maybe for some other stuff i like as well :)

I do not know how to articulate how good worlds beyond number is like truly from the bottom of my heart but to paint a picture: Every second Tuesday I put it on for my 40-minute commute home from work. Every second Tuesday I say “remember, you can save the second half of the episode for the commute tomorrow. as a treat.” And Every. Second. Tuesday. I sit in my parked car, in the driveway of my home, and listen to the rest of it right there. I don’t even get into the house.

To say this is one of my favorite pieces of media ever made feels hyperbolic and insane, because there are 11 episodes out, but like, there it is. I am not exaggerating

Just feel notable to mention that this is the most normal reaction that every parent should have.
