This actually gives me a lot to think about.

anyway blackboxwarrior is like, ten times more chilling when you consider the thesis of the normal album. taken as a whole, the album creates a dialogue with itself, in which it audits the question- what does "normal" mean? is normalcy something you should embrace or shun? is it possible to strive for normalcy, while eschewing it at the same time? what does a normal family look like? a normal community? a normal brain? (and finally, what does all of this matter if we're all going to die in the end?)

I believe that blackboxwarrior, in a very abstract way, asks the question- what could a standard of normalcy do to someone who isn't perceived as normal? the song partially takes the satirical, overly theatrical perspective of an abusive psychologist. you can obviously tell what they're doing to their patient is fucked up, particularly in the second half, but hey, they're making them normal. it doesn't matter what the "side effects" are, or if this person wanted this sort of treatment, or what fresh hell it's doing to their brain. as long as they're normal now, as long as whatever "defects" they have are dealt with, who cares if they're suffering? who cares if those side effects could harm or even kill them? what matters, the narrator implies, is that abnormalcy is dealt with.

also I think "marsha" satirizes the opposite extreme- that unhealthy belief that life was so much better without any mental health support whatsoever. that might be why you hear the opening of blackboxwarrior quoted in it. you could look at both together and conclude that ignoring someone's autonomy and forcing treatment on them is a bad approach to mental health- but so is dismissing all mental health treatment as a sham. I think the ending of "marsha" clearly- albeit satirically- implies that what's really needed is empathy. mental health support is a good thing- it obviously beats "drinking yourself to death" or "bleeding out in the bed." it just can't be done with the intent of forcing someone to be "normal," or seeing them as a list of problems to solve; it takes understanding and humanity.

Yeahhhh basically.

I love how all three Lydias have different relationships with their respective Beetlejuices (Beetleji?)

Toon Lydia: He's my best friend!😊

Musical Lydia: He's fucking nuts but he was funny and cool, up until he started manipulating me into marrying him and getting murdery. I had to stab him to death, but he saved me from his shitty mom so I guess we're cool now.

Movie Lydia: *beating him with a shovel* GET AWAY FROM ME!

He's like Benson Boone but with cartwheels instead of flips. Also Alex Brightman is way cooler than Benson Boone.

I miss the creature

Tumblr is weird because one day I just started getting The Beatles on my page. Never once have I been intrested in The Beatles fandom, and I can name exactly one song of theirs. It stopped eventually but was replaced by TADC, which I do like, but I kid you not it was ALL I saw on my page. GIVE ME MY WILL WOOD TUMBLR

Bring the funkos in boxes. Put it on your desk in the dorm. Unless its shared. Well, Fuck it! Who cares, bring it. Moving into a new space is hard, especially for neurodivergent people. You're gonna be away from family, friends, and pets. Bringing a little part of you can help a ton.

-someone who has never moved out of their house

My move in day for university is getting closer and closer, and I keep looking around my room and having a moment of what do you meaaaaan it's not practical to bring 7 funko pops and if I must take some then I should only bring my favourites like how dare you those guys are my CHILDREN also same with books :') Like no I haven't read mallory towers in years, but what if I want to y'know and with 70% of my books audible is fine, but for a couple of them having my childhood copy to hand means a lot This is making me sound so materialistic, I swear I'm not, and I'm not even overly attached to my room specifically. I'm just very sentimental with random things, and moving is a bit of a thing for me.

I hate how funny this was to me.

It's always weird when Im listening to Love Me, Normally by Will Wood and my cell rings and I hear my ringtone Love Me, Normally by Will Wood. My man interrupting his song with his own song.
