Woof Woof Bow Wow

[doubledyke]

what kinda music would the eds like?

oh dude

you'll be shocked to learn that all their tastes are based on my own.

to me eddy is a big Music Enjoyer™ and i think he goes through phases, but his overall taste is expansive. he's is obviously into disco - abba, sylvester, bee gees, EWF, kool and the gang, barry white. i see him enjoying old funk/soul/r&b - bootsy collins, the gap band, chaka khan, curtis mayfield, patrice rushen. pop/country oldies - nancy sinatra, dusty springfield, patsy cline, brenda lee, peggy lee, loretta lynn. 40s, 50s & 60s girl groups cuz that's what his mom likes- andrews sisters, mcguire sisters, ronettes, marvelettes, etc. 80s dance - the egyptian lover, pretty tony, debbie deb, newcleus, loose ends, madonna. 90s house and dance - crystal waters, la bouche, lisa stansfield, robin s, real mccoy. other 90s pop - aaliyah, britney, sugar ray, backstreet boys, nsync, aqua, smash mouth ace of base, TLC, destiny's child. a touch of ska with sublime, 311. other random stuff - fatboy slim, louis prima, azalea banks, limp bikit, shaggy, dua lipa (gay), the prodigy. there's so much more honestly but basically anything i like is what eddy likes 😳 he's like the catch all haha.

edd also loves music but i tend to think of stuff that reminds me of him vs. what he would actually listen to. crystal castles to me is edd music because i'm gay and emo but i don't think he'd really listen to them outside of the gothedd au that exists only in my head lmao. things i do think he'd listen to include kraftwerk, aphex twin, boards of canada, daft punk, massive attack, agnes obel, avalanches, burial. most of which he discovers through eddy of course. some outliers might be tool, muse, enya, anita baker (don't ask ok). there's other stuff i'm sure but that's probably enough for now.

ed is harder for me to nail down cuz i see him as mostly a rock/metal fan and even though i grew up listening to it, i've never gone super deep into the genre tbh. his favorite bands are primus and death grips. others would be alice in chains, nirvana, SOAD, melvins, butthole surfers, smashing pumpkins, black sabbath, metallica, rob zombie/white zombie. he might be into other 80s metal, black metal, sludge metal. none of which are anything i listen to so i couldn't tell ya what artists.

BUT other folks have made some great playlists for ed and the eds in general which i'll link here.

@mkorpse13's ed playlist

@mysticbeaver's ed and eddy playlists

@owmylasagna-blog's playlists for all the eds

@fish-bowl-2 has a great playlist for general eene vibes as well

my playlists for all three are here. not super long but i might add to them at some point.

Do you have any good poetry book/chapbooks to recommend? I’m just starting out with poetry and I’m pretty intimidated 😅

Yes, definitely!

In my first few years of reading poetry regularly, some of my favourites were past lives future bodies by Kristin (K-ming) Chang, Soft Science by Franny Choi, and Teaching My Mother How to Give Birth by Warsan Shire. I also listened to a fair amount of performance poetry, which I feel is often quite accessible, so I'd read collections by spoken word poets too (Franny Choi as above and Olivia Gatwood's second collection, Life of the Party, were standouts at the time).

Some recent accessible reads for me were Grit by Silas Denver Melvin and Beast at Every Threshold by Natalie Wee. Wee's was one of my favourite collections of the year and it's going to stand up even when you know a lot about poetry craft, but it's not too difficult to understand even if you don't.

I'd also recommend short poetry that doesn't often pass the length of a page, but still works with poetic devices. Billy Collins is super popular in this space. I'd also put Maggie Smith and Mary Oliver in this category. But a favourite of mine was Dear Specimen by W. J. Herbert.

I hope you find something to enjoy in there. Also, don't shy away from audiobooks, especially when they're read by the poets themselves.

I saw where you said you refused to watch csi Miami even for hoechlin, but I'm curious if you've watched some of his other movies and what you think? My friend and I have started watching some of his early B movies like Melvin Smarty and Grizzly Rage, which are both so camp that I can't not love them. They're also free on youtube, which is a gift.

so here's the thing. i'm lazy. i've always intended to but just haven't got around to it. i like my comfort shows, you know. no extra energy for that.

the only reason i refuse to watch csi miami is because horatio cain annoys me and my blood pressure don't need that.

however i would rather be subjected to a root canal than watch 7th heaven. not only is the show preachy and weird but also the dad? stephen collins committed sex crimes against minors. i don't believe hoechlin has ever commented on it nor should he have to just so i'm clear.

but i think that'd be the only thing he's been in i'd actively avoid.

"PLEADED GUILTY TO ATTEMPT TO HOLD UP STORE," Hamilton Spectator. December 5, 1933. Page 15. ---- Melvin Addley Sentenced to Five Years All Told ---- Suspicions of Constable Were Well Founded ---- Story of Chase by Wheel and Foot is Told ---- Suspicions on the part of Constable Hull led to the appearance of Walter Hill, 81 Hunter street, west, and Melvin Melvin Addley, no address, in police court this morning on charges of vagrancy. After hearing evidence in the case, Magistrate Burbidge reserved judgment until Friday.

Later in the morning session of court, Addley, who is 17 years of age, was brought back into court and charged with attempted hold-up while armed of Daniel Cook, 462 John'street north, on Saturday evening last. He was also charged with the theft of a car, owned by Fred Wickett. Addley pleaded guilty to both counts.

Magistrate Burbidge, in passing sentence, pointed out that, although he might be disposed towards leniency on account of the age of the accused, he could not be too lenient because of the provisions of the criminal code which prescribes a minimum of two years in the penitentiary on hold-up charges and also a further term of two years for the carrying of a revolver. He therefore sentenced Addley to two years in Kingston on the hold-up charge, to two years for carrying a revolver and to one year on the automobile theft charge. All sentences will run consecutively.

Detective Witthun testified that on Saturday night, Addley had entered Mr. Cook's store. He was armed with a nickel-plated revolver.

Constable Hull told the magistrate of suspicious actions on the part of Hill and Addley late last night.

Story of Chase The story of a chase across rough roads in a car and on foot was told by Motorcycle Officer Moreau this morning when Garth Miller was committed for trial on a charge of theft of an automobile. The officer said that, in company with Motor- cycle Officer Hurst, he was patrol- ling on Ward avenue in a police car when the officers perceived a car parked on the street without lights. Steam or vapour was coming from the exhaust and as the witness approached the car, it shot away at a high speed. It crossed rough roads and then stalled. Two men jumped from it and ran away, but the accused was captured by Motorcycle Officer Moreau after a chase of about one and a half blocks. A search of the car revealed the fact that 15 women's coats, 17 women's dresses and three sweaters were in the back of the machine. J. P. O'Reilly appeared for the defence.

On a charge of assaulting and robbing Nick Geuc, William Krick was remanded for a week on the request of Acting Crown Attorney Harry Hazell.

Appearing for sentence on a charge of false pretences, Albert Bouck, Guelph, was allowed to go on suspended sentence for a period of two years. H. L. G. Westland defended.

Following a plea that he was not intoxicated but was a sufferer from high blood pressure, E. G. Durrant, 170 Cannon street west, was remanded until to-morrow.

On a charge of vagrancy, Leslie McLean was remanded for a week at the request of Acting Crown Attorney Hazell.

Appearing for sentence on a charge of non-support, Malcolm Mock was remanded.

James Stradwick, charged with breach of recognizances, was remanded.

In liquor court, John Powell, 9 Wentworth street north, charged with keeping liquor for sale, and Milton Johnson, 194 Gage avenue south, charged with illegal possession, were remanded for a week.

[Addley was 16, single, born in Hamilton, and his brother was already at Kingston Penitentiary since September. Addley was #3276 at Kingston Penitentiary, part of the Young Convicts gang, and was transferred January 1934 to Collin's Bay Penitentiary as inmate #654. He was released June 1937.]

Inquisitive journalist Grace Collier is horrified when she witnesses her neighbor, fashion model Danielle Breton, violently murder a man. Panicking, she calls the police. But when the detective arrives at the scene and finds nothing amiss, Grace is forced to take matters into her own hands. Her first move is to recruit private investigator Joseph Larch, who helps her to uncover a secret about Danielle’s past that has them both seeing double. Credits: TheMovieDb.

It stars Margot Kidder, Jennifer Salt, Charles Durning, Lisle Wilson and William Finley. Music is by Bernard Herrmann and cinematography by Gregory Sandor. When newspaper reporter Grace Collier (Salt) observes what she perceives to be a murder in the apartment across the street from her own, it proves to be the catalyst for a trip down a dark psychologically damaged street. To be honest here, the continuous complaints about De Palma being a Hitchcock clone got boring around about the mid eighties. As Hitch is my personal favourite director it has never bothered me one bit that he homaged and borrowed from the great man’s cannon, in fact I have always found that when on form it was great to have someone like De Palma to keep the suspense thriller genre going. It’s not as if he’s the only one who owes his career to director’s from the past really is it? Sisters is a wonderfully trippy suspenser, where De Palma lifts from some great Hitchcock motifs to portray a clinically edgy story based around an article he read about Siamese twins Masha and Dasha Krivoshlyapova. Infused with technical flourishes such as split screens, POV filming and close quarter framing, the director is donating his own blood for the veins of the piece. Suspense is rarely far away, be it characters in some sort of danger, or the possible discovery of a body, there is no pause for pointless filler fodder. While twists and revelations engage the brain instead of insulting it, something many of today’s horror/thriller directors could learn to “homage” from actually, and a nightmare section of film literally unfurled out of the minds eye is top draw. Herrmann was enticed out of near retirement to score the music, the genre and themes at work in the story ready made for his skilled compositions. The score in all essence is lifted from his own major works for Hitchcock, with added sections taken from Jason and the Argonauts and Mysterious Island, but reworked in such away it drifts a perfectly off-kilter vibe across production. Kidder and Salt do great work in tricky roles, and Finley is suitably edgy. Durning is a little wasted, though, but it’s a small complaint in the acting area. There’s a couple of plot holes and one turn of events that just doesn’t make sense, but this is a prime De Palma thriller a...

Drew the FlimFlamStrawberryJammers (my main ocs) as lil animal cracker/ cookies ? C: Really pleased with how this came out! One of the few times stuff comes out almost exactly how I had in mind.

I got so invested in this I have considered all their flavors as well.

Collin (far left) - A dark chocolate cookie base.. a little bitter! Very strong vanilla flavor in his icing and also raspberry. A bit of sprinkles for that final touch.

Philky (top) - Strawberry cookie base with a lovely rosey floral flavor in both the base and the icing. Perfectly balanced.

Sammie (far right) - A sweet strawberry flavor that is perfectly complimented by a bright lemon flavor. In both cookie and icing. Decorated with sprinkles and coconut shreds.

Stevie (bottom right) - Surprisingly lavender flavored. Vanilla icing is not too overpowering or too sweet. Some icing has a raspberry flavor. Decorated with sprinkles.

Melvin (bottom left) - Double chocolate with a hint of rosey floral flavor. Somehow tastes sparkly as well. Decorated with sprinkles and a little bow tie which is strawberry flavored.

SATURDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO “A Little Industrial Nachtmusik” w/John Bechdel (Ministry) & Davy Jones (Monkees) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2kRJSe7fuc…Not long ago, in San Francisco, I had dinner with my old Pennsylvania friend John Bechdel, catching up news on family, friends, and music biz. He’s been with the band Ministry, celebrating their 40th Anniversary on a tour w/Corrosion of Conformity and The Melvins. Ministry is grateful for John because of his skills with live sampling and “industrial” keyboards. As for this video: One may ask what industrial-techno-electronica music has to do with The Monkees, but they were one of the first mainstream pop groups to use synthesizer (also shown on their TV show). Micky Dolenz bought one of the first Moog synthesizers released to the market. On that note: In the late 90s Monkee Davy Jones and I were doing recording sessions at John Bechdel's studio. John is a musical visionary and a wizard of keyboards and synthesizers and has worked with a remarkable list of music acts: Brian Brain, False Icons, Fear Factory, Killing Joke, Prong, and others. John retooled one of Davy's songs, "Oh What a Night" (which we'd recorded in a Phil Collins funk-style in 1996; it was remade by The Monkees in 1997 for their JUSTUS album). He expanded the track with synths and effects, then remixed my Mellotron parts. From this "A Little Industrial Nachtmusik" was made and added to my FIRE album. This video features artwork by visual artist Nathan Wagoner…
