Until then, I remain. Long John Silver.

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

"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.

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

Silverscreen
Two-faced Johnny, hotel lobby I won't go up without you Plated boots, lipstick rouge Jack on the edge of champagne fruits Misdemeanor, gossip cleaner Overacting table reader Ego driver, loose-lip liar Driving my head ill [••••]
Surface tension, I won't mention Liar, liar, liar, ha Dancing finger, constant linger Driving my head ill
Coup de grace
Running the circles through, right back to you Finding at the finish line, nothing new The let-down that sticks like glue Slipping through my fingers gripping onto what is left of you
Waiting for lessons learned, taking turns The loudest of them all, left to be unheard My story lacks in the facts That it's so absurd So come on, coupe de grace
Shavambacu
Ghost eyes sleep beside my baby doll
All night when I'm in bed with you
Sunrise never sets on baby doll
Her ghost tears, some call it rain
Well I'm crying for just one name
I can't stand to see another day
I'm not in L.A. to have my way with you
My little darling shavambacu, oh honey I love you
Killing the joke
Interstellar, dressed in leather, drinking bitter boy You know the plan but you never knew the ploy But I, I live a lonely life Since you been gone I left the TV on Let the milk go sour, let the bills pile up But I, I know I'm a funny guy
[interview with Coup de Main, 25 Sept. 2018]
#So he wrote those three songs BEFORE his breakup#Talking about a toxic relationship (again)#he said he didn't know shavambacu's meaning till september#but he called Alex shavambacu on stage in June 🤔#He wasn't going to put killing the joke on CdG!!!#No wonder he is scared of love#Whenever you love whatever you leave#Also “and at the time when Al was away I'd be hanging out with him (zach) a lot” is unbearably domestic and cute 🥺#Miles Kane#Coup de Grace#Milex thoughts

my nana: not doing great my cat: not doing great me: trying to remain upbeat in the face of this, the usual chronic pain dance, having surgery booked on Halloween, the surgery taking me off work and thus taking away part of my already hand-to-mouth income for another 1 - 2 weeks when I've barely recovered from the first 6 weeks off, watching multiple genocides unfold, and the surreal bonus of watching people actively celebrate a 31 year old pop star's preventable death because of abuse allegations me, turning on my pc to write fanfic and look at my gay little scrapbook on tumblr.com: hey look it's a bunch of fever era panic! pics! see, what a nice thing! and you know, i haven't seen people dogpile on brendon urie and wish violence and suicide on him for ages now, so that's something me, scrolling down: mmmm. MMMmmMMMMMMMMmm
#are you guys joking#i'm sorry but i've become the people are dying kim meme i wasn't in the mood for this at any point but oh my god#genocides across the globe#and didn't you guys have what was essentially a mass white supremacist rally in new york just now#and yet the person you americans and babies want to obsessively 'joke' about killing and maiming and throwing bricks at again is#*checks notes* brendon urie for potentially singing some songs without ryan ross#if you guys were as good at politically mobilising or donating funds to the people who are as you are at bitching at moaning#at brendon urie while you keep a throatful of pete wentz and gerard way's boot leather#despite them being complicit in or guilty of exactly the same and worse shit#maybe all of us would be doing better#and if this doesn't pass your vibe check - unfollow me! block me!#free me from the prison of thinking you have critical thinking skills or are nice!#clown once again loses patience with the other clowns at clown school or whatever but oh my fucking god#i can deal with people being cruel or stupid but why always both at once lately

Nothing gayer than two straight guys both singing lead vocals in a song about love that doesn't mention gender in any way
#I'm joking but also not#i do have a question tho. are they both imaging a different girl while singing or what?#bc like. if i was one of those guys I'd be thinking about the other guy even if i wasn't interested in him#usually these come in three flavours. 1) they both sing the whole song together.#2) one sings the verses and the other and/or both sing the chorus.#or most baffling/gayly 3) duet#i would also like to make the statement that 'babe and baby' are gender neutral terms of endearment even from like. the 70s.#scoresheet

*reaches out my hand and grabs you* I have the power to subject non vocaloid people to pinop..
TW: for flashing lights
Mushroom mother analysis in my tags. ..
#vocaloid#pinochiop#i saw this video link wasn't posted anywhere on tumblr and thought i should share#(i will be gendering protagonist as 'she' and writer as 'he' for simplicity)#anyway to me in my interpretation the song is written about specific person's reaction to mental illness/neurodivergence.#the fact that mushrooms are growing on heads is a reference to mushrooms only growing in darkness and-#-and is a common anime trope to imply that a character is depressed or a shut in (shimeji situation did this) (also a panel in ohshs)#there is this familiarity between the singer and who she is singing to (presumably the writer) like these are the words of a past lover..#making it feel like the pinop almost HATES the protagonist of this song. that he was called the one with the 'mushroom mother'#but it almost feels like that protagonist does become obsessed a little with the idea of not catching a mental illness from pinop#but then in their obsession of 'not catching it' they start exhibiting like a hypochondriac ocd but for mentalillnesses#the 'your mother is a mushroom mother' to me is a teasing (almost child like) jeer almost felt aimed at pinop/writer.#to imply that.. because his mother gave birth to him she's a mushroom mother. because he is a mushroom (like a yo mama joke)#in my mind the writer is insulting himself here. that the chorus is insulting him in that teasey child's tone#anyway later in the song the protagonist gets more paranoid about others spreading their emotional toxicity to her.#and in her sanitation attempt she winds up hurting other people (implied i think. because of the violence of setting mushrooms on fire)#eventually though I think she stops seeing mental illnesses as a flaw and instead of 100% hating she jumps to 100% loving them#tbh this interpretation is the shakiest part (because why would she put on a mushroom on her head in the end) (what does it mean??)#I think it means that she's embraced being allowed to be publicly mentally ill. and she takes that 'being allowed' as permission to be crue#the protagonist was cruel and toxic even before this transformation#then the writer.. in some perspective thinks about how in retrospect her actions were hollow#the writer surmises that living in that cycle would feel emotionally unfulfilling .. empty.#the writer here is coping with what was done to them in the past.. the person that hurt them enough to write this song#then now that she has those mushrooms growing on her head/is depressed and so the chorus of mushroom mother returns to poke fun at her#and in the end i think the writer joins in in that gloating chorus#The writer feels mixed on celebrating an 'ex' being confirmed as something he was for having#but there is also the celebration of being petty. and the franticness those sort of mixed emotions would give u..#and in the end the writer thinks that in the future that the world will keep changing on it's view on the mentally ill#but because those ending lines are repeated twice i think he's implying that there is a cycle to it#that there is a resignation to the world moving and changing into something else but not getting totally better

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)

eurovision also allowed fascist portugal to participate for a full decade...as a contest/organisation they will always ignore human rights and political issues unless it means good PR (i.e. russia)
#they even had the gall to vote one of our revolutionary songs last !! (joking but also 🔫🐑)#that song was pivotal in signaling the revolutionary groups to proceed w the revolutionary plan on the 25th of april#but europe wouldn't get that or appreciate it ig? specially bc the revolution wasn't talked about that much in international news afaik

Today's Daily BakuDeku Song Is: Christmas In June - AJR
Oh my God How lucky am I to have two things I love? Makes it that much easier to fuck it up In case I miss it, can we do Christmas in June?
#bakudeku#bkdk#dkbkdk#dekubaku#dkbk#wasn't joking. about holding myself back with the ajr songs#this one could be either pov but i think i like it from izuku's the most#this one has the vibe of they can NEVER find ANY time to do anything together once they have hero work#their dates always get cut short or cancelled because they get called in for a mission or fight or something#their hours and days off never line up#things like that#a sort of situation of the only time they get to spend with each other is when they hit the bed exhausted and beaten up from the day's work#just the two exhausted pros so so desperate for a chance to just. spend time with each other.#to even have a holiday together#even when they're doing missions together and working as a pair. they're doing hero work. they're WORKING#they're not having quiet moments together they're fighting villains.#I'M JUST SAYING... that spending all your time together as a couple working isn't the best situation to be in#bats my eyes at you guys... does anyone wanna write a fic like this#*looks around* ah shit i gotta do it myself don't i. okay. *opens google docs* alright

My memory of The Birdcage (1996) is always that it's more dated and more difficult to watch than it actually is. You hear "drag-themed comedy from the 90s based on a musical from the 80s based on a play from the 70s" and you brace yourself just a little, right? But the film has a strong gay perspective, so the fruity fag jokes mostly come off as warmly affectionate. There is a surprising amount of poignancy in Robin Williams' portrayal of Armand, grudgingly agreeing to his beloved son's request that he go back into the closet for an evening ("do me a favor and don't talk to me for a while"). The drag club's staff attempting to redecorate the apartment with stuff straight people might like (a taxidermy moose head, an enormous crucifix, and Playboy magazine) is extremely funny. Albert's histrionics are a point of tension because he does often come off as a stereotypically pathetic/comic figure, but towards the end of the movie he makes it very clear that he's aware of how people see him, and asserts that trying to copy a stoic masculinity he doesn't possess for the sake of social approval would be more pathetic. In the 1983 musical adaptation, they give "Albert" (Albin) the only good song in the whole show, "I Am What I Am", which Gloria Gaynor covered to the delight of gays everywhere. Apparently Nathan Lane wasn't (publicly) out yet in 1996, which is amazing because it means that at one point in this movie you're watching a gay man playing a straight man playing a gay man playing a straight man, in a movie about how it's important to be yourself, an absurdity that does seem to encapsulate the state of gay America in the 90s.
