#My little freak that I love

[beebfreeb]

we need more absolutely deranged and bizarre trans characters in media. victims of the weird little girl to sleazy car salesman pipeline. women who are cartoon magicians. characters who live in a broken down volkswagen bus for no real reason. sword cane owners who wear a suit every day and go to the dollar store like that. trans characters that are outcasts not because they are trans but because they are genuine little freaks <3 hope this helps!

edit: This is about how characters who are trans don’t get to be anything except trans (if trans characters even show up!) Can a trans character not just be a character with traits and flaws, like real people have? The answer is YES you just have to support transgender media and artists where you can find them and stop relying on Mainstream Media for “representation”.

I am sick of having to make cis people comfortable <3

Dear Princess Celestia, today I got my ass beat by a train conductor.

[knowlesian]

for some godforsaken reason i keep having intense feelings about izzy “only human in a muppet movie” hands, the joke has officially infected my brain and morphed into being kind of sad for that incredible mess of a man. 

as such: everybody gets to suffer with me.

if you think about the show from izzy’s perspective, he went to bed in a gritty pirate drama where nobody gets to be happy for long and if you gut-stab a motherfucker, they have the common decency to fucking die already. he had both feet firmly on the ground in this world: he understood his place in it. he knew the goddamned rules!

and then one day he wakes up and blackbeard says “say, how about you go fetch me a fancyman” and once he finds stede, somehow this incompetent little weirdo beat him with the power of friendship, chutzpah, and a well-chucked coconut. 

and then blackbeard lets stede get away with it—not just get away with it, but he celebrated izzy’s deeply embarrassing loss to a bunch of greenhorns, and he’s allowing the source of izzy’s confusion and humiliation to parade around calling him ed. 

(i feel like that matters a lot to izzy—it’s pretty clear in his mind, using edward is a privilege he takes seriously and something that’s Special and Just For Him. and now stede is all “ed this, ed that, ohhhh ed let’s have tea and cakes and wacky hijinks and be all tender and adorable and emotionally available to each other in a healthy, open way” and ed doesn’t just let it happen. he likes it!)

lucius gets the better of him (using information only ivan or fang could have told him! O U C H), nobody wants him around now that they can have muppet adventures, and then it all culminates in blackbeard-now-ed going back on his plan to pull a single white female but make it none of those things actually and the duel.

ohhhh, the duel. where the final law of gravity izzy understands just... breaks. everything about his life is so very sad and it’s his own fault, but man. i can’t help it, i feel bad for the little freak.

he woke up in a different genre and whenever he tries to be like “okay, but yesterday i could have sworn linear time had meaning? and sepsis actually existed? is anybody else seeing this shit?????” everybody around him says “but izzy, we’ve ALWAYS BEEN MUPPETS.” 

the choking/Toe Moment in the finale, beyond being disturbing as all hell/a kinkmeme fill on parade, carry a new resonance with that framing. he’s crying in happiness over getting to do the Weird Vore, sure, but this is a realignment. his world finally makes sense again!

(also he’s so in love with blackbeard he can’t do anything other than drown in it, but that’s another post too.)

anyway, all that to say: stede crashing into his life was basically a mindfuck so intense it was full-on eldritch horror times for izzy and i just think that’s neat!!!! also so, so deeply sad.

Little Freak - A Letter to Her

I've been thinking about Little Freak and its delicate point of view and it's unholy how strong and raw it is. For the purpose of this analysis, we're gonna picture this song as a two voices duet: Harry and She. First verse is Harry adressing She, 'you'. Second verse is She adressing Harry. Overall, the song reads to me as a beautiful apology letter from you to yourself, because in the end, Harry and She are the same person.

Little freak, Jezebel

Those are society's feelings towards ''she'', queerness. Freaks, evil (Jezebel is one of those reaaally evil biblical figures, and she's a woman). The hatred is so strong from all sides that Harry internalized it and saw She that way. He may have now claimed those words as terms of endearment. Little freak <3

it gets a lil bit long it's ok

Stay green a little while / You bring blue lights to dreams

Okay I'm just. Tripping a bit here about something I wrote some time ago regarding Pink Floyd's song Green Is the Colour, somewhere in there. Green is a colour symbolizing envy. Harry is containing her existence in this intangible feeling: envy and dreams. (blue being the colour of psyche and stuff)

Somehow you've become some paranoia

She has been confusing him for so long, she has been associated with fear (of being rejected, judged, hated). She is the paranoia of being found out.

Wet dreams just dangling

Okay, I'm just gonna link those posts about WMS by @laurelier and @ialwaysknewyouwerepunk who called it!! Maybe the female orgasm... was indeed his all along. Dangling, in the air, Out of reach, because he hasn't come to terms with her yet, because thinking of your gender in relation to your sexuality can be really scary.

But your gift is wasted on me

Harry regrets how he has come to hate her: she's not a curse, she's a gift, queerness can be beautiful, but for some people it can be very hard to accept that part of themselves and celebrate it after years of self loathing. Harry wishes he could love her unconditionally. Or this may be about gender dysphoria: feeling like the gift of ''femininity'' is wasted on his body.

I was thinking about who you are, your delicate point of view

I'm not worried about where you are, Who you go home to

Throwback to She ''I don't know who she is, where she is'': he feels like he has overcome this period of questioning who and where she is. Now, he sees the world differently through her eyes. ''who you go home to'' may imply he's found a way to conciliate his gender identity and his romantic relationship. She's going home to his beloved and it's not an issue to anyone.

Second verse! She POV !

Did you dress up for Halloween?

This feels like She is asking Little Harry about his Halloween. Costumes and special occasions being an excuse for exploring different styles, extravagance. Embodying someone you're not in your daily life. Halloween is her moment, ever since Harry was a kid.

I spilled beer on your friend im not sorry

Growing up, Harry has found other ways to let her out. She jumps out when Harry's drunk. In those moments She is unapologetically herself, she's loud, has fun, spills beer on people and makes an embarrassment of herself. And she's not sorry about it. In those rare moments, it's all about her and not social conventions, what others may think.

Golf swing and trampoline, (baby?)maybe we'll do this again

I'm trying to vizualize the lyrics here, and golf swings and trampoline just evoke to me amplified movements, the body completely letting go and taking all the room. More than a state of mind, when She is out the body feels free. It's liberating, not to worry about how ''too much'' you are, you get addicted to that.

Track(drag?) suit and a ponytail / You hide the body all that your God gave you

It's just. very gender. Tracksuit is that one unisex garment that can dissimulate body insecurities. She only peeks out a bit at the body ends: a ponytail, a simple act of self care (reminding me of Harry braiding his hair during 1D). And the body God gave you.... What you have to do with, no matter how much you hate it. (if the actual lyric is yoga fuck my drag right)

Red wine and a ginger ale / But you would make fun of me for sure

Various mentions of alcohol, because for some time that was the condition For She to fully exist. And She knows that once alcohol wears out, he will belittle her again, try to make a joke out of her. ''I was just drunk, I was being stupid''

I disrespected you, jumped feet first and I landed too hard

Broken ankle, comma rules / You never saw my birthmark

I'm... not really comfortable going there, but this is what I take from the lyrics strictly. Comma rules... As to separate ideas within a same sentence (separating himself from her though they're the same person) or comma rules as in semicolon, tattooed as a symbol for overcoming depression or suicide. Especially associated to the broken ankle. External and internal damage. The birthmark line seems like something extremely personal to Harry's own body map. Something you would write after taking a look down at your body: through your own delicate point of view.

ANYWAY. To go back to the chorus, and the entirety of the song: more even than FL, this feels like Harry has grown in regards to her. He's done trying to figure her out, where she starts, where she ends, who she is. He just thinks of her. All of her, all the joy and pain she brought him, and all that is waiting for them.

[canary3d-obsessed]

Apparently this is controversial but I think LIKES are GREAT! If you like something I made but don’t feel like sharing it, that’s cool! Your blog is a curated space where you show your followers a particular set of stuff! You can personally like something without wanting to stick it in your living room or out on your front lawn!

My Review of the Leaked Songs on First Listen

Nobody asked for it, and it's been done by others at this point I'm sure, but I ended up live reacting to @mediawhorefics while doing my first listen and I thought I'd share, for those of you who wanna listen to the song later (or only CAN listen to the songs later.) Not that this is gonna be helpful to anyone not in my head because I apparently feel music in scenarios.

I've also linked to a few of my Spotify playlist so you can compare the other songs that are there and get a feel for the mood of the song. Here we go:

Medicine: I know I've been asking for a studio version for a (long) while now but I now realise the error of my ways: what I actually want is a clean live version. Sorry Harry, my bad, as you say in a lot of your song through all your albums: you don't know what you have until you don't. Don't get me wrong: The song is still amazing, the fact that he replaced the audience screaming the missing lyrics with a tease to the missing lyrics is perfect, but also please release a clean live version coz that ENERGY. And I'm someone who mostly prefer studio version over live ones. Medicine is different.

Complicated Freak: makes my rock lover heart very, very happy. It feels like dirty jeans and cigarettes. Old rutty couches and a bunch of friends laughing with a beer in hand. Will go in my tiny Rock playlist even though it's softer a bit than the rest I believe the spirit is the same as those already there.

Baby Honey: So many thoughts about this song. It is. Wow. (also the fact that they both have song that say they miss the other/can't get over them I just... insert the "now kiss" meme) It's the kinda song you play loud in the car with one arm burning outside the window half cooking on the metal door, with the smell of warm car fake leather and yelling the chorus at a red light. Kinda has Carolina vibes in its summer intensity. Going into my In the Summertime playlist for sure.

Boyfriends: the reason why HS3 is available as a record is so you can understand the start of this song. "you love a fool who knows how to get under your skin", man... The song feels like watching your life in 3rd person? I really, really love it. It feels very short even thought it stands at 3:12 minutes. It's like a lullaby, but because of the lyrics it's either a lullaby to ignore the problem of your relationship, or a hug to comfort you when you're near breaking point but just not quite there yet.

Cinema: This is DEFINITELY going to end up as an OST at some point for sure. It's the perfect kind of track for that and the lyrics would match a good few movies, too. I love the yelling in the back "Bring me back to the cinEMAA!" Great song to play pool to.

Daydream: It's a fun son, I really liked to PaPaPaPaPa'd to it, but I think it's just going to be a song I like when it comes in the rotation and not one I would put in my most listened playlists.

Daylight: I really like it, but I can't place it. Probably would go in my Sunday Morning playlist, but it doesn't fit the mood exactly. It's definitely a song to step-dance to throughout the flat while singing the lyrics even if you don't know them. It kinda feels like Fine Line, except not at all. Confusing Song. I like it.

Grapejuice: Good song to vacuum to. Or mindlessly listen to while focusing on writing or drawing. Keeps you in. Will go in my Writing Playlist.

Late Night: Is less for me, personally, but it's a definite style of his that I get why people like it. There's definitely other songs that fits this one in his discography. Good radio song choice.

Keep Driving: Cute song, very carefree, I love it. It sounds like a cooking a brunch together. Another song that is definitely going to be a "oh I like this song!" when it comes into the rotation, while not having it's own spot in to overplayed mood playlists.

Little Freak: If this isn't a Lighter Song I don't know what is. It's so soft and spacey? and also very Smoll. Which is very fitting. Will either go in my Late Night Drive or my Low playlists...

Love of my Life: I looooooove this song. It's a great End-of-the-Night slow dance, even though they don't do those anymore, it's like looking at a dance floor once the lights came back on. It's very bittersweet and I just love it.

Matilda: UGH. fuck. It feels like a song you listen to on a stuffy couch with a blanket over you. Not something I would be listening on repeat unless I'm in this kind of "stuck" mood depersonalized or depression, when you stare into nothing and you just need that one song to function But also the LYRICS fuck. yes yes yes. And it WORKS. Great song. This is the found family song and it does strike that chord, which makes it go into rotation.

Music for Sushi Restaurant: PaaaPa PaaaaPa PaaaaPa Paaaa I like it. It's a very fun song, just like it's title. Not summery enough to go in my In the Summertime playlist, but it might go well in my Sunday Mornings, even though it's slightly more active than most of the songs there. Great song to cook pancakes to.

Satelite: This one is definitely going to go on my Late Night Drive playlist, where all the music that goes around you when you're in that weird state of "being tired but awake and focusing on the road but are you?" go. I really love the lyrics as well, they fit with the mood of the music and it's very vivid of a description. Really ties up with the other songs on the same theme.
