#unkle adams

[bennymiles]

In the vast expanse of the digital realm, where countless communities burgeon, each nurturing its unique blend of culture, humor, and camaraderie, I found myself drawn to one that seemed to promise a confluence of inspiration and creativity. This was a space dedicated to the works of Unkle Adams, an artist whose messages of motivation and resilience resonated deeply with me. Here, amidst the echoes of positivity, I sought solace and a sense of belonging. Yet, it was within this very community, a place I had come to regard as a sanctuary, that I stumbled upon a creation that would challenge my convictions to their very core: the "Unkidy Toilet" meme.At first glance, the meme appeared as a harmless amalgamation of Unkle Adams and the bizarre world of Skibidi Toilet, a humorous nod to two distinct internet phenomena. However, as the initial amusement faded, a profound sense of disillusionment began to take root. What was intended as a jest seemed to mock the very essence of what I had believed Unkle Adams stood for—upliftment, hope, and the pursuit of one's dreams against all odds. The meme, in its flippant disregard for these values, felt like a betrayal, not just of the artist's message but of the community's supposed ethos.The revelation was jarring. The space I had revered as a bastion of positivity now seemed to revel in the trivial and the absurd. It was as if the community had strayed from its foundational principles, choosing instead to wallow in the mire of mockery and mindlessness. The "Unkidy Toilet" meme, while perhaps trivial in isolation, became emblematic of a broader decline in the community's discourse, a descent into a nihilistic abyss where the pursuit of laughs justified the erosion of meaning.This epiphany was accompanied by a palpable sense of rage and disappointment. Rage, because the ideals that had once drawn me to this community were being undermined by its own members; disappointment, because I had invested my time and emotional energy into a group that now seemed to glorify the antithesis of its purported values. The realization that this space had devolved into a playground for the banal and the bizarre led me to question the very purpose of my involvement. Was my dedication to this community a testament to my commitment to Unkle Adams' message, or had I too been ensnared in the vacuous cycle of internet meme culture?In my moments of reflection, I grappled with the notion that perhaps we, as a community, had lost our way. The pursuit of momentary amusement had superseded our collective mission to inspire and uplift. The "Unkidy Toilet" meme, for all its perceived levity, served as a stark reminder of this shift—a symbol of the community's descent into frivolity. It dawned on me that the time and energy devoted to propagating such content were not just a waste but a disservice to the very ethos we claimed to champion.The disillusionment wrought by this revelation was profound. Yet, it also served as a clarion call for introspection and realignment. As I distanced myself from the community, I was reminded of the importance of discernment in the digital age, of the need to critically assess the spaces we choose to inhabit and the ideologies we elect to endorse. The "Unkidy Toilet" meme, in its unintended wisdom, underscored the transient nature of online communities and the ease with which they can deviate from their founding principles.In the aftermath of this experience, my faith in the community was irrevocably altered. The realization that a group formed around the noble ideals of encouragement and perseverance could so readily embrace the trivialities of internet meme culture was disheartening. It served as a poignant reminder of the impermanence of digital communities and the fragility of their founding ideals. As I reflect on this journey, I am left with a renewed understanding of the value of authenticity and purpose in our online engagements—a lesson gleaned from the unexpected teacher that was the "Unkidy Toilet" meme.

10 songs, 10 people

Tagged by @illusivesoul (thank you!)

Rules: Put your music on shuffle and list the first ten songs. Then tag ten people.

I decided to use my top songs of 2023 playlist from my spotify wrapped. And I decided to link directly to spotify for convenience's sake.

I have fairly consistent music taste. Energetic... angry... dark... and kinda sci fi.

All right... let's see if I can get 10 tags...

@kirschewine, @merge-conflict, @fereldanwench, @bnbc, @gamerkitten, @just-a-cybercroissant, @luvwich, @dataheights, @edwardellric & @butchsquatch!

I made a Spotify music playlist dedicated to moving out

Music.

They're there for entertainment, play some sort of role in history, and can trigger memories.

I've made a couple of Spotify music playlists in the past. Some include Taylor Swift and how they relate to people I (used) to know. Another was songs that made my year without the Spotify algorithm, and tracks that take me back to simpler times. That's just the start of my playlist-making journey. And it continued after it was confirmed that I was moving to another state. I decided to make a new playlist dedicated to moving out.

Eri: Moving to Melbourne chapter - a Spotify time capsule

I present to you, my Spotify playlist, filled with songs dedicated to the idea of me moving out. But there is more to the tracks than just "I'm gone! See you never." I've decided to make this playlist like a time capsule, where I update it throughout my first year of moving. What's interesting is that when I started adding songs, I noticed small themes that emerged. All of them describe my hopes, dreams, and goals.

Inside the list

This 30+song playlist can be divided into groups, based on my mental state and what I'm hoping for, and what I planned to get out of leaving the nest.

1-10 are about the excitement of moving out and leaving everything behind

The hopes and dreams of searching for a new beginning without restrictions. "Welcome to New York" by Taylor Swift and "Ridin Solo" by Jason Derulo are the main foundations of this group. These songs are about new beginnings and entering a new chapter of my life, especially since I will be turning 25 years old. This section ends with Hanne Mjoen's "Sounds good to me," mostly because of title reasons. Moving does sound good to me.

11 to 20 are based on the reason why I left - my anger

I hated everyone that hurt me in Western Sydney and those I don't have grudges towards have to see me mentally suffer. It's the feeling of screaming on the rooftops saying "I'm free" and believing I'm stronger than this. Having Kelly Clarkson be the final song for this cluster is perfect. It's a reminder that everything I've been through helped me become stronger and that I found happiness in my own right.

My favorite track in this section is MKTO's "Thank you" because that's like a theme for my anger. But it's like a song that raises the middle finger up in the air and screams "fuck you."

21 - 30 are about becoming victorious

Moving to Melbourne has always been my dream since year 10/11 and I'm finally here. Due to this, I need to make use of this opportunity to become my own person and hopefully improve. It is also a reminder of how much I've fought in order to be here and I won. There will be parts where I remember the pain I've suffered, but I've overcome it and will be now facing the unknown. In the end, I'm free.

"On My Way" by Unkle Adams is a perfect starter for this section because it's about not giving up. This section can be divided into two parts. The first is about fears of change. But it slowly transitions to the second part, which is finally being happy and content.

Why I made this Spotify playlist?

As mentioned earlier, music plays a role in my memories. And I want to remember the time I finally left the place that held me back, made me suffer and cry, and pretty much made me feel stuck. As I turn 25, I want to be reminded why I chose to move and left my old home. I've moved so many times but I was too young to document it through technology. I don't think it was possible at the time.

This playlist will be a time capsule of my initial thoughts about moving. And I want to keep those memories as I grow older. I plan to update the list with new songs, replacing old ones that no longer fit the three themes mentioned. But for now, this will do.

Moving out is scary, but it's also exciting. I made a YouTube video that documented my thoughts about moving and a short reflection after settling in. But the TLDR is me hoping to focus on my mental health and finally get past my burden. And I believe this playlist will help me through that journey.

You can listen to my Spotify playlist here.
