I took my little brother (autistic, mostly non verbal) out and he was using his voice keyboard to tell me something, and this little boy (maybe 4 or 5?) heard him and asked me "Is he a robot??" I tried to explain to him that no, he isn't a robot, he just communicates differently, but my darling brother was in the background max volume "I am robot I am robot I am robot I am robot"

Yep, that's me in the corner. You're probably wondering how I ended up in the spotlight losing my religion.

"There are legends of people born with the gift of making music so true it can pierce the veil between life and death. Conjuring spirits from the past and the future. In ancient Ireland, they were called Filí. In Choctaw land, they call them Firekeepers. And in West Africa, they're called Griots. This gift can bring healing to their communities, but it also attracts evil."

as part of my effort to remain out of the heat currently blanketing my part of the US, i went to the movies by myself and decided to see Elio, the new pixar movie. (yes, i was a lone adult at a kids movie. next question.)
it was charming, the animation was colorful and fun, and yeah, the story was simple and a little bland but it mostly worked. i had a thoroughly enjoyable movie-going experience. what most struck me about Elio, though, was how much my younger self would have adored this movie.
see, i've always been a kid obsessed with the fantastical, the alien, the other. i grew up on fantasy novels and my dad's old superhero comics and read or watched anything that seemed science fiction-y. i also struggled socially, and my tween years (about the age elio the character is) were an especially lonely time. so if you've seen the movie, or even read the synopsis, you might understand why it spoke to me.
i didn't need the adventure or the message now the same way fifth grade me might have, but i'm not the target audience. i just hope that the kids in the theater beating the heat with me, or some other ten-year-old with their head in the stars but a little lonely on earth, gets to enjoy Elio and feel as seen as my younger self would have.
#late night with lara#aside from some tag ramblings i don't usually get personal on here#but i felt like if anyone were to understand the way this movie made me feel it would be the folks on tumblr

upsides of listening to music:
music yay yay yay!!!!!! yaaaaay!!!! yipee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
downsides of listening to music
if you listen to the right song for the first time while in a certain headspace you will be changed forever as your soul shutters and warps and contorts into new forms never before seen
get an idea for an animatic you will never finish
