Serenade me

I wish he’d sing to me or write love letters to me, express his love in a way I can understand.

Paul Newman by Mark Kauffman 1967

[dailyrothko]

What are your thoughts on Barnett Newman and Ad Reinhardt? Newman's my favorite painter, with Rothko and Joan Mitchell close second and third, respectively - and Reinhardt is someone whose stark black paintings I really admire. And since they were contemporaries, I'm curious what you think of their art! Any thoughts on Mitchell would be a bonus. 😎

I like all of these artists.

Newman was an intellectual painter, he was a writer and I think he wanted to get in on the scene in this manner. There's something calculating about him but I think it's not fair to say that makes him less of an artist, it's almost a Japanese approach to modernism rather than an emotional one. You could say the same about Reinhardt who very openly talked about the removal of key aspects of art.

Rothko and Gottlieb were annoyed by Newman going into art and Tworkov too, partially because Newman lied pre-dating some paintings to make it look like he started the movement. I do feel Rothko has greater depth than Newman, maybe because he has more painting technique, but his work is layered and Newman's is flat. That's just my own taste but I often go see the Stations of the Cross and that's a great room. Very effective.

Reinhardt is good too and I like his technique but, like Rothko, it's very hard to see in pictures. It's too subtle to photograph well. It has a kind of velvety immersive quality that doesn't seem to come across in photographs.

I adore Joan Mitchell. She's another person, like many abstract expressionists that hardly makes sense until you see how big it is. It's like a big Japanese screen painting in that a lot of her work is horizontally oriented, almost like a story. She's a dynamite painter, some of them are really exceptional.

I'm not sure this answer is much more than just some personal taste but, if you want to know anything please let me know. Thanks for writing.

Colorado River toad

Plenty of amphibians excrete toxins through their skin as protection against predators, but none may be as strange as the Colorado River toad, also known as the Sonoran desert toad (Incilius alvarius). This toad, found in the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, produces a hallucinogen called 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT).

DuckTales Character Songs! (Part 2)

Alright, now we’re cooking here! This time around, I’m going to be focusing on important recurring characters that debuted in Season 1.

Again, giving some brainstorming credit on this to @glowyjellyfish, plus, also, a little bit to @shychick-52, since one of these is in her pinned list.

Flintheart Glomgold

Rasputin by Boney M.

Ah, Rasputin. The Russian mystic who wouldn’t die. And like Rasputin, Glomgold is a very fiery, polarizing character who will say and do anything to get to the top, even if he has to resort to power beyond his normal means (not unlike The 87 Cent Solution!)

Bradford Buzzard

Takin’ Care of Business by Bachman-Turner Overdrive

He didn’t really have a bigger role until Season 3, but he still counts for here! Anyway, Bradford is very serious, by-the-book, and business-oriented, so this song works perfectly for him.

Ma Beagle and the Beagle Boys

Bad Boys by Inner Circle from Cops

Pretty self-explanatory here. Moving on.

Gyro Gearloose

The Scientist by Coldplay

Yes, the title is obvious. But the lyrics can be seen as speaking more to his guilt over his past actions (“Nobody said it was easy, it’s such a shame for us to part,” “I was just guessing at numbers and figures, pulling the puzzles apart,” etc.), such as what happened at Tokyolk and with the Spear of Selene.

Lena

Demons by Imagine Dragons

All throughout Season 1 (and even in later episodes), Lena had personal demons regarding Magica that she couldn’t easily shake. Like the lyrics said, she wanted to hide the truth from Webby and everyone else, but there was nowhere to hide. And she always kept up walls that prevented her from getting too close to people (“Don’t get too close, it’s dark inside.”) And even after she broke from Magica’s control, she was worried that she could still turn out bad, but with the help of others, especially Webby and Violet, she was able to overcome those demons in her mind.

Gladstone Gander

Life Has Been Good to Me by Randy Newman

Gladstone is a naturally lucky character. Whatever happens in the game of life, the dice roll in his favor. I guess other than the events leading up to and within The House of the Lucky Gander!, life is good to him.

Mark Beaks

How Bad Can I Be? by Ed Helms from The Lorax

Life is all about survival of the fittest at times. You gotta do what it takes to survive, even if it means screwing others over. That mindset is 100% Beaks to me. The last half of the song, especially, where the Once-ler is bragging about his business and building an economy, absolutely screams Beaks to me.

Zeus, Storkules, and Selene

Zeus: The Gospel Truth by Lillias White, LaChanze, Roz Ryan, Cheryl Freeman, and Vaneese Thomas from Hercules

Storkules: The Harder They Come by Jimmy Cliff

Selene: Song About the Moon by Paul Simon

I feel it would only be appropriate if I put the three deities of Ithaquack together. First off, I kinda had to throw a Hercules song in there somewhere, and this one brilliantly tells the story of how Zeus came to power. On the second note, Storkules is absolutely a pillar of strength, and he’s very determined, too. Just like the real-life myth and the movie, he will take on any and all opponents, no matter how big or daunting they may be. Finally, we have Selene, the goddess of the moon. The moon is very powerful, graceful, and beautiful, just as she is. The song here explains how in order to write a song about the moon, you need to capture its features, its essence. And in order to write a song about the heart or a face, tie it back to writing about the moon. It just shows how influential the moon can be, just as Selene is in making decisions as a goddess.
