how did showaddywaddy make its way to #4 on my long term top bands already, what

#me #i mean i guess i've been listening to one or two of their songs for quite a while before i posted about them #in a mix playlist #was it two? three maybe. no. it started with one and then later on i found another one. i can't remember if there was a third after that #wait yes there was #and i couldn't stop listening to it on repeat. okay yes now i remember i have been listening to them more than i thought #for longer than i thought i mean #i forgot because the third one i found at the time is so different from their popular hits #but #i just only recently started digging into them more #and loving literally everything #it really does always start with being addicted to the music first before i know anything about the band doesn't it #my long term top tracks are nothing but iron maiden and bruce and sweet and showaddywaddy #and one secret service song #and the funny part is that i MOSTLY listen to showaddywaddy through youtube because of the videos soooo spotify doesn't know that #i wonder what it would be like if it logged that into my spotify stats too

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"

just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible

#due to the Great Data Decay academics write viciously argumentative articles on which episodes aired in what order #at conferences professors have known to engage in physically violent altercations whilst debating the air date number of household viewers #90% of the couch gags have been lost and there is a billion dollar trade in counterfeit “lost copies”#serious note: i'll be honest i always assumed it was english imperialism that made shakespeare so inescapable in the 19th/20th cent #like his writing should have become obscure at the same level of his contemporaries #but british imperialists needed an ENGLISH LANGUAGE (and BRITISH) writer to venerate #and shakespeare wrote so many damn things that there was a humongous body of work just sitting there waiting to be culturally exploited...#i know it didn't happen like this but i imagine a English Parliament House Committee Member For The Education Of The Masses or something #cartoonishly stumbling over a dusty cobwebbed crate labelled the Complete Works of Shakespeare #and going 'Eureka! this shall make excellent propoganda for fabricating a national identity in a time of great social unrest.#it will be a cornerstone of our elitist educational institutions for centuries to come! long live our decaying empire!'#'what good fortune that this used to be accessible and entertaining to mainstream illiterate audience members...#..but now we can strip that away and make it a difficult & alienating foundation of a Classical Education! just like the latin language :)'#anyway maybe there's no such thing as the 'greatest writer of x language' in ANY language?#maybe there are just different styles and yes levels of expertise and skill but also a high degree of subjectivity #and variance in the way that we as individuals and members of different cultures/time periods experience any work of media #and that's okay! and should be acknowledged!!! and allow us to give ourselves permission to broaden our horizons #and explore the stories of marginalized/underappreciated creators #instead of worshiping the List of Top 10 Best (aka Most Famous) Whatevers Of All Time/A Certain Time Period #anyways things are famous for a reason and that reason has little to do with innate “value”#and much more to do with how it plays into the interests of powerful institutions motivated to influence our shared cultural narratives #so i'm not saying 'stop teaching shakespeare'. but like...maybe classrooms should stop using it as busy work that (by accident or designs)#happens to alienate a large number of students who could otherwise be engaging critically with works that feel more relevant to their world #(by merit of not being 4 centuries old or lacking necessary historical context or requiring untaught translation skills)#and yeah...MAYBE our educational institutions could spend less time/money on shakespeare critical analysis and more on...#...any of thousands of underfunded areas of literary research i literally (pun!) don't know where to begin #oh and p.s. the modern publishing world is in shambles and it would be neat if schoolwork could include modern works?#beautiful complicated socially relevant works of literature are published every year. it's not just the 'classics' that have value #and actually modern publications are probably an easier way for students to learn the basics. since lesson plans don't have to include the #important historical/cultural context many teens need for 20+ year old media (which is older than their entire lived experience fyi)

Act I ~ The Prince

A tapestry for Let No One Sleep by @azalawa-scroggs on ao3

#narumitsu #wrightworth #phoenix wright #miles edgeworth #nmbb24 #happy nrmt big bang!!! there are two more of these…..#but you’ll have to wait for them #fan art #aa #ace attorney #dick gumshoe #maya fey #manfred von karma #…bro is creeping…#wHEEWWWW ok took me a bazillion years to catch up with my day but HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS ON THIS ONE:#the border is intended to be read in counter clockwise direction #so: top -> left -> bottom -> right #and YES the sun and the moon are intentionally associated with the attorney's and prosecutor's badges respectively #phoenix and miles are our sun and moon throughout this story so be sure to look for that in the fic too!!#this style was very experimental for me but i wanted it to mimic the feeling of a tapestry hence me referring to it that way #i WISH this was fabric that would be sick as fuck #i will eventually share a proper breakdown of the thoughts and intentions behind everything but for now...#im gonna miss Phoenix’s cloak bc im obsessed with the design actually. wish that thing was real too #miles is my cunty little bitchboy in this wearing his thousand pound fur coat and the suitor stompy boots #if you thought that was a rug and went Oh. ...that was on purpose :^)))))#rendevok #id in alt text

i often think about that split second where orpheus has turned around, the wash of relief, love, joy, love, love, love that he feels when he sees eurydice. there is darkness and doubt all around him, the ache of his feet, the feeling of defeat, and in his desperation borne of love he sees her. and for a split second, love takes over. the last thing eurydice sees is love etched into every corner of her husbands face before she is dragged back into death.

#yes i did just finish listening to #hadestown #but also #as a kid this myth drove me insane #he could’ve waited #but now i get it #he gifted her hope to last her eternity

A small preview of my Shortbox Fair comic, Curtain Falling!

A woman with no memories keeps cycling between fairy tale scenarios, always accompained by another mysterious woman as her co-star and a looming, towering eye that follows their every move.

You can grab this 64pages digital comic at the fair until the 31st October!!

#curtain falling #shortbox comics fair #o #just in case you're waiting for it to load yes the last page is all black. I love slapping those bad boys in for pacing
