The teaser trailer for Shrek 5 with the terrible new designs, the first images of the main characters and their rivals for the upcoming Pokémon game, and the news that Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins are joining Jensen Ackles on The Boys (so essentially a Supernatural reunion) all dropping on the same day was not on my 2025 Bingo Card

asl brothers as wealth, fame and power is something i find so interesting. it’s them but it’s opposite, it’s all wrong. ace & fame, something he was unwillingly cursed with due to his lineage and something he hid from until his anonymity was ripped from him against his will. sabo & wealth, former rich kid turned revolutionary who strives to dismantle the world’s leading authorities; their wealth hoarding and corrupt luxury. luffy & power, the boy who’s dream is solely fuelled by the idea of ultimate freedom despite the inherent power behind what he strives for. ‘the king of the pirates’ who scoffs at the idea of superiority or control over anyone. asl brothers as wealth, fame and power but it’s everything they’re not, and everything they hope to never be

Fun facts!

"Nakuko" translates to "crybaby" (lit. "crying child").

The Namahage are oni-like yokai from Japanese folklore. They are said to come down from the mountains of northern Japan during Koshōgatsu to scare villagers and look for "crybabies/bad kids" to punish.

Hanuman is the name of a Hindu monkey God who is believed to be the inspiration of Sun Wukong.

The slinky is the official toy of Pennsylvania!

Kallikantzaroi, also known as "Christmas Goblins", are satyr-like malevolent creatures from Anatolian/South-East European folklore. They live underground, where they spend the year sawing the roots of the World Tree - only to take a break during the 12 days of Christmas to cause mischief in the world above

Listening to The Car on a rainy morning

It's been a while since I've done a full re-listen of The Car. I'm noticing things that I'd overlooked.

The wall of sound strings jump out to me more this go-round. These are Puppets-level string arrangements. For an album about longing and masks and missed opportunities, it's hard for me not to think about this in comparison to Everything You’ve Come to Expect. We hear the strings but the whole song cycle is about absence. In lieu of a Puppets album, did we get Alex arranging strings and singing without (but about) Miles? Without Miles, we get something beautiful and heartfelt, but with no electricity.

Like the moment in Big Ideas where Alex chokes back a laugh after singing "we had em out of their seats" at 1:51. In good headphones I felt it resonate.

He knows he's not going to get people out of their seats. His new sound is for sit down concerts. I love this sound, but I also miss the fire.

I may be reading too much into this, but I'm curious if others feel it too.

marauders band au

drummer!pete. he enjoys not being front and centre but still be able to have those moment that hes rocking it on the drum solos, he will never admit it but he loves knowing that he basically controls the song because if he changes the beat then everything else is messed up too. also, i think he has a lot of pent up worries and anger that is allow him to works out and just perfom.

bassist!remus. he likes the ability to be in the front and mess around with the others a bit (maybe flirting with a couple audience members) but he doesn't have to do as much as sirius does on the guitar. he also loves having his moments but also blending in with the in the songs. he loves wondering over to where pete is sometimes and watching the other two during the guitar solos and getting a break for a bit - also just chatting with pete. he will often go over to james or sirius and annoy them by stealing the attnetion of whoever their flirting with.

lead guitarist!sirius. he loves showing off with knee slides and crowd surfing. he also loves the fact that this will piss off his parents - him waltzing around stage in tight little leather pants, a white tank top, tons of silver chains and jewerlly and his hair half up in a man bun to keep it out of his face while he winks at lovely ladies and drinks beer between each song.

rhythm guitarist!james. he loves going back to back with sirius while they both shred on the guitar. he plays the main melody while sirius does his little riffs and solos but he likes it this way. he likes having attention but he prefers rhythm as its more repetitive so he can focus on other things. unlike sirius, each show he find a different girl in the audience and flirts with only her the whole time - after the show he gets their number, maybe gives them a kiss, if rarely goes further (but not never) - my man basically falls inlove at every show but it never really sticks.

and the vibe of the band is 100% dependant on the lead singer

singer!remus would create the arctic monkeys. he is alex turner - and he would definitely change the song so people cant sing along because it annoy him when their out of time.

singer!james means the band is basically 5sos. you can't tell me that this boy didn't make it a boyband. important note: 5sos not 1D (sorry)

but singer!sirius and we're getting queen. the mix of rock with that slightly artsy vibe is perfect, i can really see them writing bohemian rhapsody as a joke and releasing it but it actually blowing up and making them famous.

when it comes to writing music, its a group effort (but mainly remus). james and sirius give the rough draft and remus turns it into lyrics while pete comes up with the rhythms and sirius puts little guitars riffs in while james melts everything together with his vocals. (remus definitely has songs thats hes written that are more like ballads but he keeps them private.)

the audiences watch james and sirius blow kisses to eachother across stage or even kiss eachothers cheek ect. constantly.

at first the fans are confused whats going on but slowly they pick up whats actually happening. wolfstar. (obviously)

they notice how sirius watches remus when he has those moments of confidence on stage and joins him, playing back to back.

they notice the way that remus' eyes latch onto sirius' shoulder muscles when they glisten with sweat during the show.

and the way they whisper things into eachothers ear during the show and after.

I’m pretty sure Glisten has memory problems and they’re probably linked to him overusing his teleportation. In a few dialogs he completely forgets certain obvious things before playing it off as a joke of sorts because he lets be honest he would never admit to having a problem.

The one thing no one tells you about becoming an adult is that you will need some form of a planner lest you lose your mind

[no1onepiecefan]

zoro and luffy who can both get achingly jealous.

zoro who grumbles when his captain shows affection to other people, makes ally after ally and wants to be the only person in luffy’s company. zoro who tries to impress and earn the praise of the man he follows like it’s a competition he cannot afford to lose. zoro’s jealousy yearns to be the subject of luffy’s gaze, and aches whenever anyone else is.

luffy who is possessive. he sees zoro interact with other captains, work together with whichever friend or save whichever person, and his mind sings like a mantra that zoro’s is his. zoro is luffy’s swordsman, zoro is luffy’s righthand, his first mate and he should look to him. he should be fighting alongside him, and his small grumbling possessiveness extends to jealousy so easily.

zoro and luffy who both feel jealous, and both match each other by sharing a sweet fixation on one another. they just equal each other, needs and wavelengths eternally aligned no matter the subject. perfect for each other.

Listening to Humbug and Tranquility Base Hotel and Casino on a snowy afternoon

My favorite Arctic Monkeys albums are the ones that follow Last Shadow Puppets albums. These albums are my gems. My weird ones, the ones that people didn't understand, the ones where we get at least 50% lovesick Alex trying to navigate his situationship with Miles Kane after coming down from the rush of tour. These are the dreamy albums, packed with songs are about escaping and being haunted and being far away. These are the albums where the music lifts the words in ways we hadn't heard them play previously.

Humbug, with few song exceptions (Cornerstone I love you forever but you feel like you belong somewhere else), sounds like it was recorded underwater. The drums thud. The rough edges are smoothed off Alex’s voice and the songs are sinking into an unknown.

And nine years later Tranquility Base Hotel and Casino flips the narrative. It's the sound of a place that doesn't exist and can't exist. It's the mirror of Humbug, where Alex's lyrics float in a galaxy of shimmering reverb. The production is polished and layered and he's crooning high above the Earth.

I think as a fandom we spend a lot of time having fun with the conversations betwen Alex and Miles via their songs and albums. But I haven't spent as much time thinking about how Alex’s songs and albums are a conversation with himself.

I think I really fell in love with Miles’s songwriting because I saw it thru Alex’s eyes. I also had a lot of fun playing around with THEIR shared influences as songwriters (Marc Bolan, we love you). But I suspect I grew to love Miles’s work because I see the traces of him in Arctic Monkeys songs. This is ESPECIALLY SO on the post TLSP projects.

I'm going to have some fun, and I'd love your thoughts. I've intertwined portions of AM3 and AM6 albums and b sides in this playlist. Are these songs from 2009 / 2018 having a conversation? How would we as a fan community arrange this list?

[contritecactite]

Dear barred owl outside my window:

Welcome back! You are beautiful.

But you are LOUD. Please consider whether it is necessary to make that particular sound at that particular time of night. I would be happy to discuss alternatives, such as the other perfectly serviceable tree just fifteen feet to the north of that one or perhaps the park two blocks down.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

A very tired caddis

P.S. Seriously bro. I woke up in a panic from a very solid sleep because I thought someone was in my room (but also thanks I guess for waking me up from that nightmare?).

Emergency commissions for a pet emergency

My cat Bootsie has been deteriorating recently. For weeks he’s been eating less and less until now where he’s refusing to eat at all and struggles to keep water down. I took him to a vet clinic but they were unable to diagnose him and recommend taking him to an emergency clinic to have him hospitalized.

I’m unsure how much this will cost at the moment but there is no doubt it will begin to reach into the thousands as just a single visit will cost 170$ As such i am once again pushing my commissions

All prices are negotiable!

*Things I won’t draw: nsfw, any form of bigotry or hate speech, excessive gore, overly complicated mech

If you want to simply donate i do i have a kofi as well!

Any help even reboots are appreciated!
