#the really sad genre

[strongacetheticvibes]

spoilers ahead

i was recently rewatching perry the platypus and in the peter the panda/time machine episode, s1ep7, it made me so fucking sad. i do not have a valid reason to be this sad, its sadder than dobby's death. yeah. i said it. SADDER THAN DOBBY DYING. it made me sob for hours cry a tear. like, i get that its a parody scene of couples cheating in a kids show, but it broke me. it is the sense of sadness you can't really describe. closest i can get is 'if your pet german shepard you raised since you were 14 and the dog was smaller than your arm'.

actually i love it when the characters are all lying. i love it when they all have secrets and none of them trust each other. i love being given clues that solve puzzles i haven't even been presented with yet. i also love it when i get chills watching a scene without even knowing what it means, and when i do know what it means, i get even more chills. i love theorizing and thinking and solving and coming up with possibilities of where a story might be going. i love it and i will do it for free, for fun, for no real reason.

this is a mystery appreciation post!! if you appreciate mysteries and secrets and stories that slowly unravel before you, please interact!!!

horror sub-genres • virus horror

virus horror is a sub-genre that defines itself differently than zombie horror. this sub-genre toys with people’s fear of sickness/parasites and the devestating outcome that it could have on society.

what's a lesser known spider-man related thing that you don't see enough people talk about? (for me although its not lesser known, more like forgotten, only two people (you included) have recongnized my pfp)

Now this is the weird cartoon I'd watch.

There would be some very questionable humor, screaming (and i kinda really miss Hunter's screeches from the second season. He was GREAT while raising his voice, no matter what anybody can say about it being annoying), grotesque episode scenarios, cool uniforms and much else!

it makes me so sad that we're never going to have good romcoms ever again, like we'll never have another notting hill or when harry met sally or how to lose a guy in 10 days. and it's all because we're so intent on casting hot people with the charm factor of a cardboard box. like a huge chunk of movies now look so immensely picture perfect--super ultra hd camera, flawless skin, flawless hair, blinding white teeth and absolutely no silly little flaws to the character, no being camp or stupid just for the sake of it. and jfc don't even get me started on the writing. it's like writers hate romcoms and purposefully want to ruin them!!

Listened to The Be Five album today not knowing what to expect and was not disappointed.

Def gonna recolor it but I said I’d post more so

Dunno how I’ll color it in my normal way with lineart and have the feel I want. Also better atmosphere Colors that fit what I have in mind

Advice would be nice fr

(sorry for leaving y’all in suspense I was grocery shopping) Surprise!! I accidentally got into Len’en like two weeks ago. Whoops! I got ideas for cool drawings to do with each of the BPoHC shrine team members (and you-know-who, ofc, but that one might be… weird lol), but Tsubakura gets to go first cause theirs is the simplest; just greyscale + red color scheme with a split background and the pose is mostly random (maybe they’re squishing Tsurubami’s little eye thing? Idk). Very pleased with how everything worked out; the line for the eye is exactly where the dividing line for the background was and the way I managed to make the vest corseted while not changing the ribbon placement is just perfect. Although I did make their hat smaller out of the aforementioned cowardice also that thing is hard to draw

offtopic but yknow, i really don't get the people of r/glassanimals.

i really understand the frustration and how criticism is critical when it comes to improving art. heck, despite i'm a "Dreamland girlie" myself i still think their best works were somewhere in ZABA or HTBAHB. so it's understandable for people to think how it's such a downgrade for Glass Animals to switch into pop by their third album, which in a way alienates those who seek for different sounds.

but here's the thing; just bc the sounds tackle pop genre doesn't make it any less meaningful. some of the lyrics in Dreamland were as deep and haunting at times such as Helium and the conversation in Melon and the Coconut were as comparable to some songs in HTBAHB. like it really makes you wonder what's happening between them.

people also had been "ripping apart" the new ILYSFM album despite there were only two songs came out so far and lots of people have been displaying disappointment towards those. yeah, i can see it's a bit straightforward when it comes to the lyrics department and it has the same "pop" problem it shares with the entirety of Dreamland. but, again, are people there like... too lazy to analyze those songs? or maybe i am over analyzing it bc those songs just happen to also collide with another fixation of mine?

the point is, just bc the recent songs tackle the "pop" genre doesn't mean it lacks values or meaning. but bc it tackles such over saturated genre, it's hard to delve deep into its meaning when the first thought that pops out of ur mind after listening to their new songs were "man Glass Animals really sounded generic ever since Heat Waves blew up"

finally getting around to making a vot broken playlist cos i wanted smth to play while i draw ♡ but my favorite song for him (valley of the dolls) was made unavailable and i just. i can't even be mad i think inflicting suffering 'pon me was the funniest thing that could've happened here

[missmizzy6]

Any chance someone has song recs based around these?

It's pretty much "i got abandonment issues" the playlist

WAIT CAN YOU SHOW ALL THE ZER0H CHARACTERS IF YOU CAN. im so curious

AHHGHGHBHJHBGTGHJBTHJBTHJTHJ$HJT$HJ$HHJ OK OK so. first of all i'm gonna say all of the art i will post are from his twitter and youtube channels but ANYWAYS!

first off we have the characters that he has drawn properly before:

those are his earliest characters i'm pretty sure? the songs are pretty old addi comes from addiction, hallu comes from hallucinosis, toto comes from to_. (but also a reunion that was only a dream and forever i think) and ellis and maro come from necro_mance. or at least those are some of the songs they appear in

then WE HAVE!!!!!!!!

MY BELOVEDS AUGGHGHHGHGH ete and ques are 2 of my most favourite it's written in the image too but ex comes from !!!, ete comes from ∞ and ques comes from ..--.. and -.-.--.

next we have

THE MFS I WANT TO PUNT IN A WALL /POS no but fr these two don't really come in any songs afaik? but they do show up in zer0h's twitter art a lot (p.s please follow him his art is amazing)

now there's characters that only show up in songs and like 1 or 2 drawings on twitter and. never again sadly. one of them is MY NUMBER ONE FAVOURITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CANNI FROM RED CARNIVAL MY BELOVED she's just like me fr. but sadly she only appears in her stupid song and in 1 drawing and a doodle and never again.....not even a full body........no info......also did you know her song was uploaded in my birthday

then there's also. even worse than canni because i don't think zer0h even gave her a name but

the girl from tenshi. that also has 1 drawing on twitter and THAT'S ALL!!!!!!!! i like her tho and also the song slaps

outside of songs zer0h also has his mascot named agent-chan and i love them. so much. just look at them. aren't they silly

and also THEIR!!! OWN!!!! UTAU!!!!!!!!!! I'M SO PROUD OF ZER0H FOR ACCOMPLISHING THIS i love them so much. their name is fume and their voice is amazing

then there's these 2 characters that i don't think they have that much info on but they appear on some of zer0h's recent songs

anyways I THINK THAT'S IT??????????????? if you read this far thank you for listening to my immense zer0h brainrot I'm So Normal

liking romantasy as an ace person who is more sex-indifferent than sex-favorable is so exhausting. there are all these books that look cool but the authors mostly market them based on spicy levels and spicy scenes and it does nothing for me so i just sit here like :| thats nice i guess haha
