ok so we all know how hopper is mikephobic right? and that jonathan and max are too? yes well i think they all get super into the whole bit and just take every opportunity they have to destroy him
they call themselves the “mike wheeler hate club” and even made shirts
anytime they’re all together, they collectively will just stare (glare?) at mike with the look™️
once, max called mike a “pathetic whiny bitch boy with no taste” after he said that he didn’t want to listen to kate bush because it was “too girly” and jonathan gave her a high five (lucas did too)
hopper, max, and jonathan don’t actually hate mike, we all know that, but they do it for the comedic value. they’ve gone past the point of return, they’re committed. they are ironically mikephobic.

The Velvet Underground proved that beauty and ugliness can be doppelgangers, if only for the length of a song. In concert, they would routinely play a piece called “Melody Laughter,” which was twenty-five minutes of minimal Moe Tucker percussion, guitar/viola drones, and Nico wails. The noise they made was completely original, completely particular; like Warhol’s own work, it allowed little give or take, and you either accepted it for what it was, or you didn’t. There was no middle ground. [...] They were not in any way ironic, postmodern, or meta, they weren’t any kind of comment on what had been before, nor were they a clever abstraction of it…What they were was…a completely new type of noise.
[...] The typical route to pop innovation is to introduce alien or aggressive sounds that provoke people who would otherwise have paid no attention. The Velvet Underground both scared their audience and bludgeoned them with repetition. This was another Warhol trope, as boredom held a particular fascination for the artist. Of course, there was a considerable amount of improvisation, but a lot of what they did at The Dom was Sisyphean: redemption through repetition.
By appearing as part of the Plastic Exploding Inevitable, the Velvet Underground were also exaggerating the impermanence of art, combing both the temporal and the spatial. By destroying the time between creation and reception, by making art—or noise—happen as the spectator watched, [they] made everyone complicit. They were a Happening within a Happening. Warhol liked the fact that the Velvets were intentionally brutal. They were, using one of his favorite words, “different.”

Going to BYU as a semi-recent apostate is so weird because sure, I'm curious about all this coffee and tea business, but if the wrong person saw me drinking them I could literally get kicked out of school.
So I just stick to energy drinks to curb my rebellious desires because they're not technically against the rules but my family would judge me SO HARD for it if they knew lol.

My friends destroyed my block of one year by getting my wholly invested in a crack ship where I basically get to decide what I want the personalities to be by narrative thrust, and have opted for giving Sabaku no Rasa the biggest heap of daddy issues known to man.
So hey. Bless. More news at Eleven.

Apparently Help Wanted 2 comes out on the 14th. Now if only there had been some actual promotion for The Indigo Disk, I would’ve suggested a Barbenheimer-style fandom crossover thing
Instead, can I turn your attention to the fact that F-Zero 99 was shadowdropped the day after The Teal Mask released?
