ao3 is crazy because you'll read the most gut-wrenching 200k word slowburn that leaves you sobbing into your sweater at four in the morning and the author will be applejacksmonstercock

sometimes I think too hard about like. how the ability to record audio fundamentally changed how humans interact with music. can you imagine if the only time you ever heard music in your whole life was when you or another human being in your actual physical presence decided to create it. and 99.99% of the time that person was not a professional but just like your wife or your dad or your co-worker or church choir singing or playing whatever they happened to know. i honestly don't think we can fathom it

You consume happy media when you’re feeling bad? Nah, I consume inescapable tragedies.

How I feel skipping a song every time it starts to play but refusing to remove it from my playlist:

I've been seeing some shit on how certain folks apparently think it's like, surprising that Penelope just accepted Odysseus and all the stuff he's done without question and/or disappointment in Would You Fall in Love With Me Again when like... Not only against Odyssey!Penelope but ALSO Epic's. We may have only gotten 2 songs it's still a concept album. THERE'S STILL TIME! of the real Penelope in Epic but like, even then we can see that she's equally as wild

Pearl is so fun to me bc she’s such a juxtaposition of a little guy. In a world where smoking cars smoke, sleeping cars are sleepy, and quiet cars get upset at people being loud, Pearl is an observation car that does not know a single thing!! She was born today she is 1 days old. Her first day out of doors. She does not know jack or shit and has to learn things for herself! and it’s messy and new and she doesn’t know what she’s doing. Love her.

Perhaps they were right putting love into books. Perhaps it could not live anywhere else.
