my mom is in the passenger seat
the beach boys playing
through the speakers
humming along to the melody
mumbling through the chorus
she remembers the words
god only knows
what i’d be without you
she tells me that someone stopped her
on the street
to ask her to sing on the radio
“oh, really?”
i know it is only true to her
“that’s really cool, mom.”
god only knows
what i’d be without you
sometimes i wonder
if she wanted to be on the radio
like her mother before her
if those were secret dreams of hers
maybe in another life
she would’ve been a singer
god only knows
what i’d be without you
my mom is in the passenger seat
the beach boys playing
through the speakers
humming along to the melody
mumbling through the chorus
she does not remember my name
s.t.k.j.

Hello! I hope you’re having a good day!
What do you think about the new Zelda game that was announced? (echoes of wisdom)
P.S. idk if this question has already been asked or if you posted about it already so I apologize in advanced.
Hi! I hope your day's going well, too!
I don't think I really have any strong feelings about Echoes of Wisdom right now, honestly. I didn't really feel much when I saw it announced, mostly just feeling glad for the people who are excited; I'm glad that people are finally getting a proper playable Zelda, and I've decided to withdraw/keep quiet about my my cynical opinions about it since it's not out yet, and people do really seem excited about it. I think totk just really wore me out, so I'm not totally optimistic about what we'll get. But I'm hoping that it's good, and that the people really excited for it have a good time with it when it comes out!
I'm not the biggest fan of that art style, honestly, and I'm not the biggest fan of make-your-own-solution type puzzles, and the controls look like they're going to be really clunky to me, just looking at what the trailer shows.
Either way, I'm likely going to end up playing it anyways, since I did tell my mom about it, and she's pretty excited! At the end of the day, I at least hope she enjoys it, so despite my own feelings I am just hoping that it's good and that people like it.

This whole situation with Howleen not being related to Clawdeen in G3 lowkey reminds me of the whole fiasco with the new Tiny Toons reboot regarding Babs & Buster Bunny, except inversed.
To explain it: In the original Tiny Toons show, there's a running joke where Babs & Buster aren't related, despite them having the same last name. They're also shown to have romantic crushes on each other.
However, in the reboot (Tiny Toons Looniversity), Babs & Buster are now related, as twins.
So, Clawdeen & Howleen are not related now, but Babs & Buster are....Feels like the people in charge of these reboots haven't seen the OG or only looked at it on a surface-level understanding.
Ooh interesting! Honestly that can make things so uncomfortable. I imagine a lot of older fans probably shipped them, and have now been put into this unfair position where it now feels problematic to do so, and given how toxic fandom spaces can be, I imagine there's a lot of new fans of the reboot who might hound them about it. Yikes!
I have to say tho, I think it would be kinda wild if the current writers didn't know that Howleen is supposed to be Clawdeen's little sister, it's kinda like the main thing about her character. The fact that it was a conscious choice (assuming they don't backtrack in some way in the future) makes it even harder to accept.
It also reminds me of Strawberry Shortcake, the generation I grew up with (the best one) and how Apple Dumplin' was her baby sister, but come the reboot (the absolute worst version) is instead her cousin who's the same age, or just a tad younger. Idk, in both cases the decisions just seemed kinda random, but I suppose in Clawdeen's case her family dynamic is so different it would be hard to fit Howleen in. Hell, look how much reaching they had to do to bring Clawd back as her older brother.

Most evil character in Yakuza and most good, if you could give examples!
'evil' and 'good' depends on your personal definition and tolerance so it's really hard for me to tell you who i objectively think is the most evil HOWEVER rikiya was the sweetest most goodest boy this world had ever seen and then they killed him and i miss my son so so much anon i miss him dearly

Gabriel Morris
September 30th, 1975- May 10th, 1985
Additional HCs:
-Was friends with (Bonnie) Jeremy before his death, and somewhat-friends with Fritz. Mostly only knew Fritz because he was Jeremy's friend
-Lived across the road from Susie his whole life. Sometimes they'd talk at the bus stop or at a nearby park, but otherwise weren't really friends.
-Has had type 2 diabetes for a couple years now- got it at a very young age.
-Attends piano lessons that just so happen to be at the same time and place as Elizabeth's, so he knows her. Different teachers, obviously.
-Related to that, though, both of them tended to show up exactly on time, neither of them early, so they didn't know each other too well. And absolutely nothing about the other's life
-He's in Boy Scouts because Jeremy's in Boy Scouts. He isn't really passionate about it, but continues with it bc he wants to hang out with his friend.
-Always kinda wanted to join the school play but never had the courage to, fearing bullying. It'd probably conflict with his Boy Scouts schedule, anyway...
-Was the fourth Missing Kid to die, and fifth to be killed by William (this includes Charlie.) He actually died on the same day as Cassidy, fairly close in time. Cassidy was an unintended death, but that explanation's for later...
-For a while after his death, he was quiet and reserved, but ended up becoming more confident after a while
-After they all killed William and passed on, Gabriel was seemingly appointed as the leader by the others, seeing as Charlie wasn't around anymore.
-This stressed him out quite a bit, as taking care of traumatized children when you're traumatized yourself is not very fun. He tried to mimic Charlie's leadership for a while, before eventually finding his own way of going about things. He developed a new kind of respect for Charlie after this
-Eventually he talked to the others about his stress and they're doing better about it now :)
-Mostly numb to killing people, mostly due to trauma, making him not really think about the consequences anymore. Because of this, he's in a lighthearted competition with most of the others to see who can kill the most.
-He's in fourth place, behind Fritz and above Cassidy.
