"I hate colonists, like they are the fucking WORST!

In other, unrelated news I put 90% of my free time into supporting the imposition of a single world-spanning culture that accepts no dissent and punishes non-compliance!"

i love philippa and amelia so muuuuchcghhhgg ;___; <3

they're sisters who fight a lot through the years and can come across as polar opposites in most areas, but they know each other better than anyone else and would do anything for one another.

things of note i guess is like, i imagine amelia as being the braver of the two, always the one to take initiative in dire situations while they're young and aboard voyager, and even into their teens; where philippa, especially when she's younger, relies on her sister's decisiveness. i think philippa's more prone to hesitate on making a decision where amelia acts more impulsively, but it comes across as bravery to pip. in actuality philippa's probably just contemplative and reflective, but it feels like being frozen by fear when she's younger. ummmm and a silly little thing from when theyre older is that amelia drinks coffee despite loathing its taste, and philippa LOVES coffee like her mother but drinks tea whenever she's around kathryn and amelia out of spite lol (she comes out of the closet as an avid coffee drinker eventually but she hates the association of her mother's taste in beverages for a while).

The posthardcore juggernauts who are changing the genre and making Swancore run for its money are back with another Spotify-wrapped-shattering single.

im always saying this

[petrodragonicapocalypse]

hey! where do I start with king gizzard and the lizard wizard?

i want to get into them from the name alone 😂

hahaha great question, and you'd probably get a vastly different answer depending on who you ask LOL

somebody on reddit made a flow chart for new listeners which is pretty solid. they recommend starting with the album "I'm In Your Mind Fuzz" which is definitely a banger, but personally i'd say start with their two self titled albums "K.G." and "L.W.". these albums have songs in various different styles, so you'll get a pretty good taste of the wide range of genres that they cover in their discography.

if you like any of the songs you hear, please feel free to let me know and i can recommend which other albums have a similar vibe. hope this helps! :)

conservatives see an old muslim woman painfully picking her way through the rubble and think "I bet Hamas has tunnels in that woman better bomb her just to be sure"

they see a rail thin starving child and think "Well you should have stopped Hamas and you didn't so.... it's your own fault"

’Kay so Lobo and I are on the outs at the moment bc his eyes are really goshdarn hard to shape but here’s the proggy so far!

Next step is probably attaching the hand to the scythe blade, that to the robe, and then sticking the toe-claws on the other foot! (notice I am avoiding the face lol)
