Until then, I remain. Long John Silver.
#black sails#we joke about silver's insane monologues about flint being some kind of sea god creature but flint WAS putting a curse on silver here#binding him to that island#something something the love was there but it wasn't enough it will never be enough etc.#CJ's edits#song is Past/Present Suite by Nicholas Brittell#i know hook is a different character but he was heavily inspired by silver from treasure island. and it fits my theme. let me have this#john silver#treasure island#treasure planet#peter pan#peter pan (2003)#captain hook#long john silver#james flint#silvermadi#silverflint#jack rackham

"The Bible is so sexist blah blah blah" okay. When it talks about how you can avoid doing stupid things in Proverbs it uses a man in its examples and personifies wisdom as a woman though which I think is pretty funny
#christianity#nevermind all the verses that are literally lauding women and commanding men to honor and respect them and treat them as equals...#nevermind the fact that the first three people to see Jesus after the resurrection were all women...#nevermind the fact that His first convert was a woman...#nevermind the fact that when a woman who'd been caught in adultery was being quite literally attacked and ridiculed by religious leaders#Jesus came and told her she wasn't evil or a failure or worthy of death and He rebuked the men who were attacking her...#He shoved their own issues back in their faces and told them that they had no right to think themselves any better than her#especially since she actually felt and understood the weight of what she'd done and wanted to change and they didn't...#but sure yes go on tell me more about how i'm “oppressed” by this and how God hates women#do you not think He might like women considering... yknow... He made them and included eve in the “beautiful and good” in genesis??#why would He make something He doesn't like...#please note i am not saying this to make fun of men in the slightest bit. that's not the point. i'm making a joke#but i do think the fact that it personifies wisdom as a woman is interesting#like i'm not sayin' y'all need to read it cause it's uh. it's somethin' but song of solomon??#like yeaaahhh i think judging by that one women are intended to be seen as pretty cool and good and whatnot#like i know i talk about “i love my wife”-ism in media but uh. song of solomon takes it to quite another level#anyway!#regarding the “first convert” thing a guy named cornelius is generally accepted as being the first convert#because he was the first to be converted by the time Christianity was actually established as a religion#but if you imagine that the samaritan woman at the well was actually the first non-jewish person to believe in what Jesus said#then she would actually be the first real convert.

one thing about me is I will look at a guitar tab on ultimate guitar and I will say man, that tab is wrong
#If someone (esp. a guitarist) cannot tell you the key a song is in; I don't trust their understanding of chords at all#Buddy boy. There's no way this song consists entirely of major chords; get your ears checked#music#Musicians#Guitarists#Actually low-key maybe I don't want to be involved wth the guitarists tag#Liam Gallagher sorta joked when he said he doesn't hang out with musicians because they're always talking about chords but like#He wasn't far from the mark; guitarists can be insufferable (<- war flashbacks)#Don't read my tags lol

7am, eating cold leftover teriyaki stir-fry for breakfast and crying over blorbos
#normal Saturday morning behavior#redacted spoilers#redacted audio#redacted sam#Seven.txt#rp audio stuff#well. crying over one singular blorbo in particular. Sam's still got me in an emotional chokehold#and i'm too sad to even make a stupid little joke abt how i wouldn't mind if it was a physical one too. ayeee *insert sad eyebrow wiggle*#no but seriously. i have so many feelings abt him and i can't even say it all bc some of it isn't public info yet#eh fuck it i'll just draft this until the audio goes public and then i'll post it once it's no longer Exclusive Info#bc i dont wanna leak Early Access stuff but i have to get this out of my system rn and the new audio is part of what sparked these thoughts#which is funny bc i. literally haven't even listened to it yet. i'm not Ready 😭#where's that tiktok screenshot that's like. 'hyperfixation so bad that i can't even engage with the source material' bc that's me rn#like bro Sam only won the poll like. 2 or 3 days ago and Eric is Already dropping a new Sam audio?? hello? Mr. Redacted i wasn't prepared#anyways i was spoiling myself by perusing the comments last night trying to get a feel for if it's gonna be more angst or comfort#and i saw a comment that absolutely shattered me. and it reignited all my sad thoughts about Sam's eventual. uh. y'know. death.#apparently they plant a tree together or smthn in the new audio (which already has me & my beloved 10y/o orange tree feeling some kinda way#but to the individual in the comments who brought to all our minds the image of Sam sitting beneath that tree in 30 or so years time#when he's decided that he's ready to die and sits out there waiting for the sun to rise..................... 🥲#i'm gonna need u to compensate me for all of that unexpected emotional damage /j /nm#i'm Still not over what he told Darlin' while they had their talk about the future up on his roof together. that audio killed me#then yesterday i was listening to my Sam & Darlin' playlist while cleaning. and Malibu Nights by LANY came on. which i always skip bc Sad#but i let it play and just started crying. standing in the middle of the room all disheveled and holding a broom. as one does.#iirc that song is one that Eric himself said is applicable to Sam which is why/how i found it and put it on the playlist. and god. g o d#hm. i hope that wasn't Patreon exclusive info. i can't remember if it was a public post where he said that or not. hope it's okay to share#but if we can take that song as like. unofficial canon for Sam then that also confirms my idea that he used to drink to cope#which makes the opening lines of Fix What You Didn't Break by Nate Smith even more applicable. i should go edit that post actually#anyways i'm just. feeling a lot. and i love Sam very much and i don't want him to die. but i want him to do what he wants at the same time#Alexis took so fucking much from him. he deserves to live - and end - his life on his own terms. ... i think i need to go write something#*casually fishes this post out of the drafts 3 and a half days later* hi so uh. i wrote a 4k oneshot :) and will hopefully post it tomorrow

wait I just realised I managed to make 2 posts that gained a lot of traction about tmbg in some way, nice
#it wasn't#it wasn't the last one. it was the skeleton joke where the source post is now a picture of linnell#and one about varieties in tumblr tags that I hid the dial-a-song number in#listen to my band boy

i wish we could record dreams. you guys would have loved the full on musical numbers with silly ass clown costumes i got to watch last night
#will not elaborate because i cannot remember ✌#my posts#actually i will because it was funny. it wasn't even irl in the dream it was on a tv and involved so many puns and rhymes#and sampled ''swing me an old fashioned song'' by shirley temple.#cannot overstate how much i was not listening to music for once last night as i slept and also#was daydreaming about SKYRIM before i passed out.#there was no context for that shit at all#i do remember at one point it paused while i had a laughing fit cause the joke was so good but i cannot remember the joke now#it's been a couple hours since i woke up. i did say the joke to myself again after i woke up and loved it still but again. i forgor#literally laying there in bed going ''FUCK i wish i could remember anything but that joke and write it all down. how am i so good at lyrics#in my sleep but suck ass at poems awake. tf'' and i know what you're thinking#''but mal isn't this just your dreamself thinking you're funny and you aren't really?'' no. i forget what i say when i'm awake after#i say it out loud too. once it's gone it's gone

was refreshing myself on some old myth for a bit and i read the french and english wiki page for the Charybdis' mythos, and i'm noticing something that i don't know if it's just the wiki being inaccurate or an actual difference (from the linguistic page it seems to be an actual difference) but
In English there's this expression about choosing between two equally bad horrible situations by saying "choosing between Scylla and Charybdis"
But in French the expression is "to fall from Charybdis to Scylla" and instead of a choice it's about managing to get out of a horrible situation only to get thrown into an even worse situation (the equivalent of the English's expression ""falling out of the frying pan into the fire")
if i believe the linguistic page there was a bit of borrowing around and technically both expressions are used in both language, but you're more likely to find the first one in English and the second one in French (very likely because Victor Hugo popularized "to fall from Charybdis to Scylla" with Les Misérables) (does not mean it started in French the origin of the expression is still Greek anyway, just talking about why the saying is more popular in French with weirdos like me)
idk i think it's cool on a sort of metatextual perspective that English People saw this myth and when "oof imagine picking between those two" while French people just chugged a bottle of wine and went "And it's a BINGO and LIFE SUCKS and it NEVER GETS EASIER you get BOTH OF THEM BABEYYY"
#in my personal honor defense before anyone ask i know this myth and expression ever since i was a kid#there was an Odyssey cartoon when i was a kid i was constantly watching and it was like. my first introduction to the mythos and stuff#i did read bits and pieces of the book and read lots of wiki pages in the year#and i used to use this expression until i forgot how to say Charybdis. My dyslexia stopping me from being a pedantic intellectual.#(was always funny as a kid to just say that in front of adults who were just staring like hey what the fuck)#why am i refreshing myself now? Is it because of the whole buzz about the Odyssey lately? No. Absolutely not.#i'm looping a song i really like and that is very melancholic (yes in my Solas playlist) & it has the word Maelstrom which i didnt know#which got me into a wiki page about those and made me go 'ooooh like Char-- wait what's the name again'#and so i was doing a wiki dive on Charybdis before looking further into things#because i am terrified of sea monsters/horrors in a very morbidly curious way#i love scrolling through google image of sea monsters while just trembling in fear the whole time (real. not a joke.)#so i was doing that and i was reading the french wiki first and saw back this expression#but the french wiki being a bit short i switched to english and was :O to see the expression wasn't the same#so then i started a deep dive on the linguistic wiki page#to answer your question: no i was never diagnosticed officially with ADHD but enough qualified people have told me 'huh do you have ADHD or#anyway fun stuff. love language. love how we look at mythos and create expressions from it#even when it's dissimilar from one language to the next because the origin of the expression is different in popularity#or simply because the horrors of the myths can be interpreted differently by the people making those expressions#ISNT IT FUN. LANGUAGE AND MYTHS ARE COOL.#ichatalks#wait i didnt even finish checking the lyrics of the song i was checking give me a sec

throughout the series of drake and josh it pretty consistently implies that josh nichols is a christian (josh peck is jewish) and in the finale of the series helen (played by yvette nicole brown, not jewish[?]) is portrayed as a practicing jew
#i dont have a problem w either of those things necessarily i just find it interesting#if i had to guess. drake and josh was a mainstream that didnt wanna touch on religion generally#but josh was kind of a dork and usually when josh's religious beliefs are implied it is in dorkish ways#such as praying and thanking the lord after he has his first kiss.#but since dan schneider is jewish perhaps he wanted to make helen have a jewish wedding in the finale?#not that there needs to be a reason. but u do notice occasional jewish-related jokes in d&j but none of them are what you could call#offensive. in good faith that is. 'eric is a pacifist' 'i thought he was jewish?' like come on#text post#i have been rewatching drake and josh recently and i have had so many thoughts#im almost done. i just have left that stupid dance episode that they premiered last for the stupid reason#of a special dance-themed premiere night in fall 2007. they premiered the third episode of icarly and a new zoey 101 on the same night#which i think is so stupid. they should've aired really big shrimp last. it messed w my understanding of the series at the time lol#i remember not really knowing that the show was ENDING. like i knew icarly was starting & miranda was doing that#i thought really big shrimp was like just another special like go hollywood.#and then like two days later they premiered the helicopter episode for some reason#and i was like why is drake not famous in this. he just had a number 1 song in a superbowl commercial#and then a month later the dance one. which. if anything is satisfying about that as a final episode it's just that#that unnamed girl from the blues brothers episode who is obsessed w drake shows up again and congratulates them#and the very final line of the series is 'who is she?' because. because really who IS she?#that's a funny enough throwback to wrap things up with i suppose#drake and josh wasn't a highly serialized show so i can see how they could air those after the intended finale and act like it didn't matte#but i have to tell you it did fuck with my brain a bit at the time. lol. i still think of those episodes as having 'happened' after#and on paramount plus those episodes are still placed after really big shrimp. the injustice#but thats kinda messy. what a weird way to end such an influential and popular sitcom#season 4 had a few lowpoints while still also having some VERY solid episodes.#idk. ill have to continue my series review another time im getting way too longwinded here#helen dubois is jewish

literally my favorite blog on tumblr. Ur perfect at being Kim Pine and I love the little notes it the tags :3
(^ this is me at you rn)
Thank you so much <333 it seriously means the world to me that people love/like my Kim stuff. AND to know that some of yall actually read my silly little notes
I try to keep her as in character as I can, and I feel I have been largely successful, for the most part. I feel like she comes fairly naturally to me- I only occasionally hit snags,, but usually that's just because I'm high or something and am overcome with the desire to Maximize The Silly shfgkjshjld She's so serious though, usually. I love her <3 I love getting to be her for The People
#im never sure how many of those little notes get read but i love leaving them. little insight into my Unhinged Mind. or my day sometimes#not all of them make it into the final post- sometimes i go ''hm perhaps that is too many notes'' and remove some-- or decide they didn't +#+need to be there for whatever reason. but yeah i like leaving them for people#ooc#txt#asks#anon#im like one unhinged moment away from making ANOTHER kim blog one of these days you guys dont even know#((it would be future kim... i want to write about The Goats. I'd /j but I'm not joking. it would be a kimona blog basically sdkjfshj))#((want to live my ''they have goats in the future'' truth and no one should be allowed to stop me))#idk if I'll do that though. I still haven't opened the werewolf kim blog (cause yes that does exist. i've actually given a very big hint at#+the username for it here for people that have ALL the hints... but only two people know about it I think)#((as i write this actually i am. unsure if i explicitly told the second person the username for that one.... for people who didn't receive#+the hints from before or need/want a reminder- I am Genuinely Shocked it wasn't a taken username w the userbase of this site- and it's +#+also a song reference. I feel like it's findable w that :3c ))#but yeah. like i have said in the discord a couple times now: i am she and she is me. I love getting to be Kim here it's great#i love and relate to her a lot. she is deeply beloved

been thinking non stop about the choice of making jack wear the cat costume and kent match with a mouse...... what did ngozi mean by that. was kent simply too desperate to come up with any way to link himself to jack. was he too much of a coward to go for a dog. was it planned... and if so, what are the implications of kent being the mouse? feeling like the prey to jack's hunting? when in reality it happened in the exact opposite way? i need to dunk my head in the ocean
#jackparse#he's a mouse. duh#jack is the dog kent is the cat this is the obvious association#but the fact that the obvious wasn't chosen just..... HAUNTS me#i keep thinking about the jobros line 'i resort to being speechless / cause our love won't survive'#like if we don't ever talk to each other maybe we can keep some semblance of connection between us#because the moment we actually have the conversation it will truly be over#the hope for all the hopeless...... in the worst of trying times.............#(don't speak might be one of the songs i'd use as an example of why music's way of storytelling is superior. no joke)

side note but i also listened to pathological facade and gone fishin' so i changed the mood. i have listened to uhh. the more intense and horror-like songs of ghost and pals. i needed less insane bg noise somehow
and tbh? gone fishin' is so sweet cap'n cakes coded (idk who would be the 4th one. maybe spamton?)
but also
i am trying so hard to not be like "how do i make this about the cogs?!"
*cough* *COUGH*
YOU. YOU. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME. /LH /POS?? (cuteness aggression??)
#also#i thought gone fishin wasn't a joke song#apparently it is#but it's also a fucking BANGER#i'm just like#''how do i make this about my fixations?!''

sometimes the jokes are put in there just for you and the joke putter-inner didn't even know it yet.
#this post brought to you by#legends of avantris#listening to the night before witchlight and i'm only as far as the first musical breakdown#and someone - i can't tell who it was because i wasn't looking i was just overcome with glee at the chaotic rendition of jingle bell rock#but someone just says the word watermelon and you know that's the most delightful little joke just for me i've ever seen#explanation: when you're singing in a big choir and you forget the words something you're taught to do is mouth the word ''watermelon''#because you can make it look like hte right mouth shapes while you're trying to remember where the fuck you are in the song#the trick is that you can't *sing* watermelon which if you're singing and you forget the words sometimes is hard to do for me personally#my sister was the one in the big choir i was just There for a lot of the tips and tricks about it#anyway long story short (too late) it wasn't even in tune it was just the word ''watermelon'' and it tickled me so bad i had to stop#to catch my breath because i was laughing too hard#anyway the LoA crew are some funny motherfuckers and i do not regret my decision to follow up on the shorts i kept enjoying#if only for this specific moment

cont. i love rambling in the tags + no u can never make me make a post that has like 100 words in it
#smth that Resonates smth that's Familiar. in art that wasn't his he found smth that says 'this is me'. that's such an important 4 thing -#identity.#& that was another intense focus - even as a part of the j5 he has this established case of standing out & that was understandably carried#the whole way thru his whole career. fighting against motown to have more freedom in their outputs - to imprint more of his individuality.#wanting the world to see what artistry he's rlly capable of. wanting to finally make the world see what he has to offer-this is michael.#the child star not as he was sold as but who he really is - what he had learned & how he applied these learnings combined w/what he wants#the world to learn from and about him as well. that was literally his whole thing-how he was perceived shouldn't b the same w/how he was#perceived before & how other stars were perceived-acceptable. yes 70s-80s it's still. well. very PR very keeping an image safe. but there's#always a sense of breaking out. the cracks; the eccentricities he never defends & acknowledges. it screams out: this is what i have to#offer & you have to not only accept it but understand it. i will not be changing.#god. in everything. being inspired but with his own flavor being different being a trailblazer being his Own Thing. he definitely does not#just follow what is 'acceptable'. hello. what is his controversies about. black or white song & music video making white ppl clutch their#pearls so hard. being the 1st black man to involve coherent storylines in music videos & being the 1st black man to have said videos be#shown in mtv where they only showcase the works of white artists. everything about the history era. everything about tdcau. his#noncomformity in regards to a lot of things. molding himself into smth just simple & immediately acceptable was never his thing.#where did this conclusion come from.#and all this therefore feeding into his the ever-present feeling of being misunderstood. the sense that he can offer something special that#no one else can but in turn therefore most ppl just.

despair hamburger factory is such a problematic song because how dare the producer portray teto as a cannibal murderer when she's literally 15... anyone who corrects me is a cannibalism and murder supporter btw
(FOR LEGAL REASONS THIS IS A JOKE)
#rave.txt#I don't care about that controversy anymore I just really wanted an excuse to mention that song#I love anderson's work and will always find an excuse to mention it#yes they did some questionable stuff 10+ years ago but... name a producer that didn't#also maybe it's a bit hypocritical to joke about this when I made a (non-joke) post about yuki being just a kid right before this#but it's different because I wasn't trying to cancel anyone lmao. also unlike That guy I'm not spreading misinfo
