terrible things / brighter than the sun / hayloft ii / house of wolves / promiseland

linking some other fave albums: I'm surprised that son lux, ajj, and in this moment didn't make it to the list. pleasantly surprised that san fermin did. honorable mentions are mika, half alive, the dear hunter, and dirt poor robins

The debates about whether Mean Girls (2024) is a "good movie" is so silly to me. Must a movie be good? Is it not enough to watch Reneé Rapp in a sexy angel costume singing her face off while everyone around her vibrates like they're being exorcised for seemingly no reason?

shoutout to brent comer for locking into throwing in the towel so hard with that numb, distant, disassociated stare into nothingness for so much of the song. it is literally palpable. he is such an insanely good actor. love laugh brent comer.

everybody who didn't vote for Sidney FUCKING Poitier to play our best friend jonathan harker in the new poll is going to catch my chronically ill hands in a loblaws parking lot. HOW DARE YOU ALL.

Poitier would have made an excellent Jonathan (especially as @emilysidhe imagines), but I agree with the people saying he wouldn't convey the essential wet little pathetic man vibe—he brings too much intelligence and strength of character for that side of Jonathan.

There’s lots of ways to say ‘I love you’

"Let him feel the pain that his mother felt and rot."

Listen, do I know that I'm supposed to want Odysseus freed? Yes, I do know this but also! She kinda ate with that.

Okay I know tumblr is treating EPIC as if it cleared their skin and watered their crops and I genuinely really really like it the music is excellent but I gotta say this:

I HATE the way it's presenting odysseus' arc and flaws with polyphemus. Like the problem wasn't that he was too NICE?? Where did that come from? The problem was that odysseus was a cocky lil shit and even though he had managed to get away with the nobody trick he went like "actually you got your ass beat by odysseus lol loser". Hybris-nemesis-catharsis is homer 101 and I'm SO annoyed that an entire generation of teenagers is getting this interpretation of the text. A hero giving in to being the "monster" and losing his kindness is a great arc but there are 700 other heroes you could have done that with - not odysseus.

On the other hand, how catchy is Ruthlessness, amirite?

[galedekarios]

if you are genuinely out there claiming that gale "succeeded" in everything he "wanted" by becoming a god and that's why it's a good ending for him, you truly are a testament to the slow and steady death of media literacy congrats lmao

I need "Ithaca's waiting~, my kingdom is waiting~

PENELOPE'S WAITING~ For me!"

Injected into my goddamn veins. I don't even have a lover but as soon as you hear that lyric, you just fucking MISS HER.

Penelope is just a name at this point. We've heard it said before (still with extreme longing but that's a different ramble) but we as the audience of this musical have not met her yet. But you feel that excitement and utter joy at the thought of seeing her once more. Joy for this woman we don't know. Just how he says it tells you that this man would do anything ("horrendous horrifying actions" type of anything) to see her again and keep her safe/happy. You just sit there loving her just as much. Love that he would kill you for even having

With the first two lines, it's his men echoing his sentiment: Excitement to go home. But at Penelope, it's ALL those voices together with no echo. Penelope isn't waiting for them like their homeland is, they don't feel that way for her. But Odysseus' adoration is so profound that it needs multiple voices to even release it. Even the fact that the chorus is silent at "for me" is telling you that the fact that she's waiting is what's most important. PENELOPE IS HIS HOME. He's "just a man, She's everything" type of adoration!!!!!! He truly would trade the world to see his son and wife!!!

Even with how he says "Full Speed Ahead" after that kind of drifts off like he's already daydreaming about it and I'm just a fucking MESS. He daydreams in the Odyssey already and I love it so much.

I LISTEN TO THESE PARTS OVER AND OVER! IT IS WHAT REVIVES ME!
