[1tsjusty0u]

god after this im so tempted to make a totk fic where link is in like. a Termina Hell. because it Looks like his hyrule but its not- things thatre supposed to be there (the icy texture is gone around the hebra divine beast hole, the divine beasts and shrines and the shrine of resurrection ((that would mess him up So bad)) animals and fruits like durians and rhinos) arent and things that werent there (mabe lake(?), the bottomless pond which was the bottomless swamp but geographical features changed which ive noted in an unposted theory of sorts, ocotorock lake, lily pads???, caves that have clearly been part of the world before but are never in botw and if they were opened up by ganon then why are there ruins in there like how did they close up) are there. his house isnt his house anymore. npcs arent who they used to be At All??? its like the sheikah never existed?? and nobody mentions it (not even Robbie which, he made tech for you!!!! wheres cherry???????) and like. sure mipha is mentioned and she has a court (though her statue has been replaced in central zoras domain and like. look how the zoras viewed her after death is complicated and matyring her while also literally forgetting who she actually was but instead focusing on her image and what she represented wasnt the greatest thing. theres probably a better representation of her than that statue. but them replacing it??? and moving it so far away???????????? like. i was so mad before because i thought they just got rid of mipha entirely. like if the statue was replaced with something Other than link and sidon or just. something related to mipha!!! then it wouldnt have been that bad. ok sorry. but anyways and shes mentioned in sidons holdup (not wanting others to die, which is fair), but otherwise thats it. truthfully it isnt that bad (its still Bad dont get me wrong. but at least shes mentioned </3) however paired with the other champions treatment (little to no mention) and also there being no evidence of the shekiah tech and the divine beasts (except for a reference to vah medoh), its just. its almost like they werent important when they Were. i know moving on is like. important. however that doesnt just mean you forget someone entirely. both in like repeating history terms but also in grieving and how instead of grief growing smaller the world grows bigger in that one diagram. theres still offerings to the dead and such across cultures its. ofuejdjndndndnd biting the bars of my cage. sorry anyways!!

its just. it would be so jarring. termina clearly isnt hyrule and link knows it. id argue it actually helps link to a certain degree, maybe helping others helps him help himself + skull kid and tatl and tael and him understanding each other snd that jazz. but if this (totk) was termina it would only ruin link as a person/his mental state. from the above and also just. no one mentioning anything. not zelda knowing ganon and ganon not mentioning being like. half sealed. its like a divine prank on him (hey tp). how long would it take him to realize that this Isnt his hyrule- that that zelda isnt the one he knows, nor the champions and him seemingly (besides sidon) being the only to remember them, or that the people he met back in his hyrule arent the same ones here, or that even the divine beasts, things he probably didnt like before, he now misses because theyre just gone. funhouse mirror world. how does he get out, or is he just going insane? maybe if he could just find them- find the beasts, the shrines (theres depths holes where some used to be- they have to be out there. they have to be. please), find whatever evidence left by the champions, the sheikah, just maybe they can remember! or maybe hes trapped here, eternally tortured because of something he doesnt even know about. maybe he did this to himself. please let him out

Omg what's up with the peach & Nando 🤣🤣 pls someone tell me

ok so. this is one of my favourite pieces of formula one lore. it started in 2007 when ron dennis had the Genius Idea to put fernando alonso who has a reigning two time world championship in mclaren with rookie lewis hamilton. if you are in any way familiar with the two of them you’re probably thinking. girl you did what.

shit went so sideways it was upside down. fernando was Convinced that lewis had the better car and that’s why he was faster and that dennis was prioritising him etc. dennis was like baby no <3 i love u the most now pls stfu and drive

fernando bc he is three gremlin neuroses in a racesuit was like i’m going to mindfuck with this bitch and bc ron dennis was famously very particular about mess and things being neat. fernando was all. i am seeing shrimp colours. and during a team briefing he sat by him and ate a peach as messily as possible just to irritate his tp. he then did blackmail him and spygate happened and all that jazz. fernando was always one to girlboss too close to the sun

Tp + glitter bombs

This will be fun. But first I want to apologize for answering this ask late. Anyway, onto the chaos.

If I was in Transformers Animated Part 13: The Elite Guard's "Visit"

(This takes place before Ultra Magnus gets his aft kicked by a twig)

Sentinel Prime: Sir. I don't want to seem rude but why are we checking up on Optimus on his crew?

Ultra Magnus: Because of recent events I have decided that seeing how Optimus and his crew are doing is important if they want to continue their duties on Earth.

Sentinel Prime: I just hope we wrap things up before Cat can do anything.

Jazz: Aw come on SP. Cat's fun and you have to admit they have been more than helpful to us.

Sentinel Prime: Helpful to you maybe. All they have done is cause trouble.

As the ship landed Sentinel was more than cautious in exiting the ship.

Jazz: Sentinel. Cat's not going to pull anything this early.

Sentinel: Yeah? Well, why don't you tell that to the deca-cycle it took just to wash out all that glitter from their last prank. I swear I can still see some specks around the ship.

Me: Yo!

Sentinel: Speak of the devil.

Optimus: Ultra Magnus. What brings you here sir?

Ultra Magus: I have come to see how you and your crew are doing, given recent events.

Optimus: Oh. That is very compassionate of you sir. Um. Cat? If you are up for it can you accompany Jazz and Sentinel on patrol?

Me: Sure.

Sentinel Prime: What!? Sir. I think we are better off staying here.

Ultra Magnus: I think you and Jazz going on patrol is a good idea. It can give me time to talk to Optimus alone.

Sentinel Prime: Yes sir.

Jazz: Yes! Come on Cat.

Me: Ok. Let me grab my bag real quick. And I call riding with Sentinel!

Sentinel Prime: FRAG!

*Later on patrol*

Jazz: Cat. Why do you want to ride with Sentinel?

Me: Well because I have realized that myself and Sentinel don't have the best of relationships.

Sentinel Prime: Got that right.

Me: But I am hoping that this patrol can help us grow closer as friends.

Sentinel Prime: If that day comes I'll eat my elite guard wings.

Me: Anyway. You remember the Headmaster guy right?

Sentinel Prime: Umm. I have never heard of him.

Jazz: Oh. I remember. Prowl told me that he stole Bulkhead's body. Why bring up him?

Me: Because I happen to know where he is staying. He's staying in a nice house thanks to Powell and I was wondering if you want to help me play a little prank on him.

Jazz: Oh? What do you have in mind?

Me: Oh. You'll see.

When we got there I had pulled out a few rolls of toilet paper and a few round grey balls.

Sentinel Prime: What are we going to do with those?

Me: Well, we are going to cover his house in toilet paper and place a few of these around the outside of his house.

Jazz: What will they do?

Me: Sentinel? Do you remember my last prank?

Sentinel: Yeah?

Me: These babies explode in a glittery mess.

Sentinel: I want to place them.

Me: Sure. You show me where and I place them.

With there help we got everything done pretty quick and were out of there before anyone had taken videos. Plus when we got back we had the joy of seeing the Headmaster freak out.

Sentinel Prime: Play it again!

Me: How many times have we seen this video.

Sentinel Prime: Don't know and don't care.

Jazz: You two seem like you are becoming good friends.

*Jazz then hands him a separate pair of elite guard wings.*

Jazz: Start eating.

Sentinel Prime: Hey. I just enjoy seeing that human guy freak out there is no way I'll ever call Cat my friend. Now, I will see you later. Though send me a copy of that video ok?

Me: You got it.

*Sentinel then walks off and back to the ship.*

Me: He'll come around.

Jazz: Yeah. I'm sure he will.

Ultra Magnus had finished up by then and with that, they had to go back to Cybertron. Though not before I got one last prank in.

Sentinel Prime: OH COME ON!!

Jazz sped to Sentinel's quarters to see that Sentinel had found his desk to be covered in sticky notes that formed his chin. Jazz promptly started laughing his aft off. How Cat managed to do it they never found out but by then they had already left Earth's orbit so there was nothing he could do.

Ngikutin keributan ttg konser Band enggres yg bubar sebelum wktnya dan day 2 cancel katanya karena venue nya ngga mumpuni buat nampung segitu banyaknya penonton dan dgn genre musik keras ya ngga mungkin si penonton duduk diam pasti moshing2 mah yekan. Vocalist nya sampe blg gedungnya bergetar dan bisa membahayakan smuanya jd diputusin utk berhenti main dan ngga memenuhi full setlistnya. Sampe day 2 pun cancel, beuhhh kecewa sih pasti fansnya. Ada aja yaa dramanya ttg perkonseran tuhhh. Mana di day 1 jg sempet ricuh, padahal ya tertib aja sih yaa wlpn kecewa.. Drpd membahayakan diri sendiri. Ngeri jg sih yg katanya venue jg di lantai 2, kalo gedung sampe bergetar gt takut roboh lah.

Trus ada benernya kayanya twit di atas. Venue aman cuma di Jiexpo, GBK, ICE BSD. Dan ketiga venue ini yg paling sering ngadain konser. Aku dulu ke JiExpo nonton Suede dan Java Jazz, areanya luaaasss bgt sampe parkir mobil jauh parah haha. Trus tempatnya nyaman, apalagi waktu Java Jazz kan stage nya banyak tuh menyebar bgt sampe ke lantai atas dan semuanya oke! Area GBK walaupun ku belom pernah nonton konser di Stadion GBKnya tapi seringnya di area nya. Kaya di Lapangan D Senayan wkt nonton Weezer dan Blur, nah ini tempatnya cocok bgt buat band2 keras kaya yg itu, dulu sering bgt sih venue nya disitu ko skrg kaya udah jrg yaa. Bahkan wkt aku nonton Fest Musik di JCC senayan tempatnya nyaman juga, tertib pokonya. Sementara itu di hari yg sama di Lapangan D nya lg konser Dream Teather, pas kita pulang konser msh berlangsung jd kedengeran. Pokonya mah kalo venue di area GBK dah hepi lah, akses gampang, transport gampang. Strategis bgt! Nah wkt Java Rockin Land pun di Pantai Carnival, Ancol.. Mayan jauh yah di Jakut kek Jiexpo. Suasananya udah pantai aja, pasir cuy.. Dah kek summer music fest getoo kan yaa kurangnya kaga pake bikini aja hahaha chandyaaaa~. Wkt Cranberries manggung dan penonton mulai antusias plus rusuh, tanahnya bergetar agak panik jg ya tp ttp terbawa vibe nyanyik sabodo amat. Hih padahal takut kiamat (oke berlebihan). Ngeri sih mikir jg apa dibawah ini tanahnya kopong ngga, gmn kalo runtuh.. Nah itu di outdoor cuy bergetar, ngga kebayang di indoor dan lantai 2.. Dah weh ga bgt! Nah kayanya kalo ICE BSD mah spesialis Kpop gaksii, belom pernah huhu. Dulu thn 2016 berencana nonton Bigbang sama adik ngga jadeeee hahaha naha sih yaa, pdhl uang ada, msh belom nikah, wkt jg ada. Dan skrg Bigbang nya dah kemanaaaaa huft. Nyesel weeeehhh

Tagged by @ep6bastogne and almost forgot to do it whoops. ANyway, here is my life in slices

last song: Street Corner by High John. I listened to this track because I was going through the Spotify playlist for SoulChef, a music producer, and his works/collabs are amazing. Highly recommended, SoulChef is such a great producer who is marrying jazz and hiphop like no others.

favorite color: basic blue. Especially the lighter hue. but not a fan of pastel blue

currently watching: nothing? I mean, I should get back to The Bear ss1. I was two episodes in already but got too busy and sidetracked with The Pacific on netflix

last movie: Fargo. A damn good movie. Well-crafted but not pretentious. I love every characters.

sweet/spicy/savory: definitely savory. But spicy is my 2nd choice

current obsession: rewatching TP always made the sledgefu brain-worm dig further and deeper. I wanna write them being stupid and in love and very stupid.... again lol

relationship status: single, not really care about how to mingle

last thing you googled: 'might ducks movie' because I was looking at a tumblr blog of a fanfic author whose works I love and they talks about this and I have no idea what it is

Tagging, hmmmm mmmmmm um. Ok so @murphyism

On Tropical Music by DJhamaradio

The world of Tropical music is an amorphous thing because it isnt quite a genre its more like a general umbrella term coined by Djs and collectors. It is music that is coming out of more forgotten none english speaking parts of the world, even through some of it is made in the English speaking world for none english speakers. I can also describe it as largely coming from the Caribbean, South America and Central America, and the west coast of Africa but this doesn't mean some exceptions don't exist for example Salsa is churned out from the American east coast, and we have cases of Japanese bands who can hold it down playing Calypso. Traditionally Tropical joints are not as lokced into a groove like most funk is so I wouldnt include Afrobeat or some of the more James Brown inspired African and Carribean fare which has been mined by collectors for years. The tropical world leans more on an African inspired swing that is pretty alien if you compared it to say a Meters record. It is music you really never hear in the USA unless you are at a Haitian home or a Puerto Rican home. Its music that represents completely different musical paradigm, one that most westeners would never encounter and wouldnt have a context to make sense of. One think that is a fact is that it is some of the grooviest most ecstatic dancefloor music. A Gwo-Ka song played in a Techno or House set creates such ecstacy and everything else pales in comparison. For tonights show, here is the playlist.

ok so bug fables 2!!! its OC centric btw!!! theres a lot i have already so this might get long

Kari is an important character especially in the beginning, starts out with her guiding Jazz and Ruby through the deadlands via stealth section (Jazz and Ruby are at this point too weak to fight anything out there). they stop at this small underground settlement/safehouse (which is also where karis gay dads are) to take care of any injuries and stuff they got on the way there. there isnt too long to bugaria 2 (placeholder name) so Kari just takes them himself instead of handing them off to the next guy like usual

so they get there i dont know what happens for a while because i dont have the second area planned out at all

the city built into the rockwall serves as like the hub city! its more vertical than any area in bug fables. houses are built into the cracks between the rocks nothing reaches or even sees the other side of the wall and nobody dares go to the top. 

The water city is the first area with a dungeon type area! i dont have too much planned for the dungeon but im thinking something underwater like something in a cave or something else causing trouble for the city’s residents

the scary forest and it’s dungeon are probably one of my favorite parts! the dungeon is a plastic dollhouse and it’s boss basically guides you through the dungeon itself similar to that ice dungeon from LOZ;TP but when you try to leave after getting what you need from the dungeon is when they attack you and you have the boss fight

The mountain area takes you up the rock wall to the other side of it which is the most dangerous place saved for last of course! Kari makes their second appearance here to assist Jazz and Ruby in their upcoming battles theres something huge there and its definitely not a friend

As for other things, some bugs that are awakened in bugaria arent here and some that arent there are here! stuff such as spiders and snails are awakened in this area! also Jazz and Ruby MIGHT get a 3rd party member only because i cant see bug fables working with only a duo

I’m totally open to advice for areas, what things i should put in the story, bugs that u want to see, ect!! (this is me asking for those things)
