#unironically a banger actually

[ferociouslycreativemystery]

You'll be going about your day like a normal person and then remember that one song that didn't make it to Eurovision when you were 5 and realise that actually it's about bbc ghosts now

[rubixpsyche]

Lads the students are blasting ABYSS by Yungblud and scream-singing "CAN SOMEONE SAVE MY LIFE" while studying at 3am I don't think they're okay. They're covered in mosquito bites.

having an obscure special interest sucks until you realize its one of the anime that anime sites in the early 2000s had quite a good amount of content for .. double autism win (this sp/in + 00s web sp/in)

Listening to broadway homestuck at work sure is an experience. Not a bad one mind you, but it sure isn’t good either.

TWST characters as different people i've seen at school

yes most of this is slander

Riddle: The kid who treated being line leader as though he had just been elected President of the United States of America

Ace: Would stand up in class and shout "FOR KOBE" and throw a piece of paper at the trash bin. Would completely miss.

Cater: Filming a fucking TikTok dance in the middle of the school hallway during class transitions. Fucking MOVE, i got places to be. (I walk directly though their tiktok and ruin it)

Trey: That kid who's birthday you know by heart and eagerly await every year because he brings in the BEST desserts. The good kush.

Deuce: Says the stupidest shit in class unironically. Other guys are confused as to how this makes him more endearing but girls fawn all over him.

Azul: Passes by his crush (Jamil) in the hallway and thinks blud will stop and fall madly in love with him at first sight and will declare his love to Azul and it'll be something straight out of a teen girl movie. It ends up playing out exactly like this video: https://www.tiktok.com/@irljigsaw/video/7232906141385215274?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc

Floyd: Kid who only likes Chemistry because he's crazy excited about mixing chemicals and setting things on fire. Anything he makes in a lab he loudly comments on how badly he want's to take a bit fat slurp/bite out of it. (it's me i do this)

Jade: One of the mushroom core girlies. Wears mushroom jewelry, has mushrooms patterns on his clothes, draws them for art class, draws them on his notebooks and binders. It's almost obnoxious but he's forgiven by everyone because he's hot.

Leona: Literally doesn't give a shit about school. Shows up in pajama bottom's and takes the fattest nap right in the middle of Geometry.

Jack: The only nice guy on the football team, girls LUST for him ❤

Ruggie: The only class this kid liked was free and reduced lunch (real)

Kalim: Guy who refuses to eat school food. He's probably got the right idea, that nacho cheese sauce probably causes cancer. Brings the most banger lunches and makes people jealous. (Lunchables, the GOOD fruit gummies, chips, a cookie, and a Caprisun.)

Jamil: In classes where you're not allowed to eat, he's the kid who sits in the back and makes a 9 course Gordan Ramsay approved gourmet meal.

Idia: This was so easy this guy was the anime weebo who wore anime merch every day and sometimes even wore anime wigs to school. He won't admit it but he would Naruto run through the halls in middle school.

Ortho: The cute little innocent babey schnookums who the girls all doted on. Hurt him and you'll get jumped by every girl in the student body. Fuck around and find out type shit.

Vil: Bozo who would literally paint their nails in class and would be doing their eyeliner while the teacher was trying to explain mRNA.

Epel: YEEHAW REDNECK KID. you know who i mean. the one who wears a hat with the American flag on it every day and whenever the teacher tells them to take it off they go on a rant about how unpatriotic the teacher is.

Rook: The only kid who actually liked French class. Tries to rizz people up in the hallway and asks for their Snap but always fails. Maidenless behavior.

Malleus: The tall quiet emo kid who slumps in his chair on his phone, with the bottom resting on his belly. He looks like he's listening to edgy emo music but it's actually tooth rotting cheesy pop music

Lilia: The manic pixie dream girl who will spew the most wise sage advice when asked.

Sebek: Literally one of those girls who's attached to her boyfriend like a parasite. You cannot separate her. Overly loyal and won't stfu. Is like a mix between a golden retriever and a chihuahua.

Silver: I swear on my life he's one of the kids who's been adopted by his entire friendgroup. People love him he's just a likeable person. He makes a new friend and BOOM they've adopted him. You're my son now, boy.

@heartscrypt i thought specifically of you while writing Azuls

anyways all of these are people i've known i've got irl sources for this. no i won't apologize for all the slander because it's funny.

Things I am feeling insane about re: the new Valentina release, in no particular order:

-THE SONG, please I need it on spotify immediately so I can loop it nonstop for the near future -THE LOOK AND THE OVERALL VIBES, just in general it's gorgeous but also [gestures vaguely to my post from the other day ] I'm so awawa that this is the same person who has previously so adamantly resisted being perceived as cute or feminine or queer, we stan personal growth and self actualization! -The outfit being SHEER and BACKLESS and VINYL OPERA GLOVES ououghughg -Yuchi's $860 Dior visor and diamond earrings -Takumi's pink braids and sunglasses and keytar (and pink shoes? I think?) -Kyo please what is going on with your shoes -CHOREO!!! Backup dancers!!! Okayyyy pop diva!!! After watching the live videos with the consistent choreo on the chorus from performance to performance I was hoping that would be heavily featured in the video and I am so glad that it is -this video not having the tongue-in-cheek framing device of cheesy 80's pop aesthetics like Candis, Moan, and Mosaic Shojo....this one is just unironically a girlypop video :) -that one 360 shot at the bridge where you get the neck tattoos and then arm tattoos and then BACKLESS OUTFIT and then back around to the front with the sparkly lights in the background hELP -Kyo using the melty doll (which as previously established originates from a gallery show about coming out as queer and existing as a queer person) as a microphone, singing into their face for most of the video and then cradling and holding them close at the end -Kyo's hyperfemme draggy mannerisms that are so different from how he performs in his other bands....the hip pops, the gyrations, the "hair" tosses, the shimmies, gurl where did you learn those!!! -this being released the same week as Petit Brabancon's Batman HOW is this the same person how do I achieve that level of chameleonism? -Does Valentina the drag queen know about this absolute banger dedicated to her? -Does Kyo know who Vander Von Odd is? (not immediately relevant to this video but something that's been making me insane in general on the topic of Kyo and drag queens because I think it's hilarious that Valentina of all queens is his favorite when there's someone out there doing something so close to his Dir en Grey current looks and performance style and ethos!!!!) -the fact that even after watching the video half a dozen times I still have no idea what's going on in the B plot because I keep getting Distracted -she's so beautiful and I am very gay thank you and happy pride

Inspired by the "we had King and Lionheart on 8tracks" post going around and prompted by the latest work by Lyv, a musician doing fan songs for BG3 characters, who reached Dame Aylin and (very correctly) concluded "yeah, this one needs to be a 7-minute metal track" - here's my personal selection of things I listen to to instantly hop into my Aylin mindset. I mean, I loved 8tracks and I have King and Lionheart on all my playlists forever, but here I think I'm going for an older feel, when we had LiveJournal posts of pertinent lyric extracts with mp3s of the songs and YouSendIt links expiring in a week.

Aylin, for me, tends towards bombastic and cheesy symphonic/power metal, with lavish guitar solos and dramatic lyrics about fighting dark lords and riding dragons and seeking magical swords, lovingly crafted labyrinthine fantasy lore stretching over and across albums, often delivered in somewhat awkward English. But also just a lot of big, loud feelings that I love listening to metal for. She was made to grace album covers, is what I'm saying.

Without further ado, under the cut I give you my 8 Metal Tracks To Fly Around And Smite Your Father-In-Law To (but it's actually 16 because I provided an alt option for each song).

Seeking Vengeance by Unleash the Archers

Like a wave of death, I wash over all who stand in my way, there's no redemption now

Self-explanatory in all things, I'd say. Big, powerful vengeance song with moments of nuance, in that we get "I am the falling blade" and "Who have I become? I know not where I've gone to" both packed in there. And also, the song just slaps.

Alt: Afterlife, the song that provides a counterplay with "I won't waste my freedom, vengeance will not make me whole". And also some killer instrumentals.

2. Spillways by Ghost

All your faith, all your rage, all your pain It ain't over now, and I ain't talking about forgiveness

Dealing with anger and darkness that exist within you and needing to find an outlet to stop it all from overflowing? Say no more. Ghost is a fave of mine but most of their stuff wouldn't really fit here, theme-wise. This song is perfect though.

Alt: Hunter's Moon is another one of my go-tos to ponder some inevitable violent vengeance.

3. Where Angels Fear to Fly by Battle Beast

They say the darkest hours are just before the dawn That we must die to be reborn I'm still alive, I'm ready for the pain When I fall, I'll rise again I spread my wings and like the midnight sun I will be rising

Five million years ago I saw these guys open for Nightwish and sing about Guts and Griffith from Berserk and got hooked. This is a far more recent offering, and it's both a banger and super on the nose for what I'm looking for here.

Alt: Wings of Light which hits the spot in a very similar vein.

4. NightSky by Kamelot

I'll stay with you all through your pain Blood of my blood Remember your name 'Cause when the night sky is coming down I'm watching over you And when the darkness falls Just close your eyes Remember your name

This is unironically my Selûne song and my brain loves tying it into the whole "Nightsong was only ever a curse" thing.

Alt: Silent Goddess prompted by that one kickass fanart that quoted it.

5. Rain of Fury by Rhapsody of Fire

Rain of fury my blade, like wings in the mist Hold my breath in the shade, both my hands on the hilt A thousand sparkles collide, igniting the cave There's nowhere to hide, I'm the valorous, the brave

These guys won my heart a couple of decades ago when they first sang about winning the dark lord with an emerald sword and they never fail to get me pumped. Some classic stuff to really get you going, get you on that quest, get you through that dungeon.

Alt: March Against the Tyrant, primarily for the gentle farewell-before-battle "Let me feel once more how much life you have on your lips" opening.

6. Charcoal Grace I: Prey by Caligula's Horse

I could bind my heart to anger And hold my breath for bliss that was promised me While the desperate hands of vengeance demand to deliver me

I actually have a very hard time picking between Part I and Part IV (and I usually don't listen to one without the other) - in fact the entire very heavy suite about reckoning with a horrible father is… something else. This is absolutely an outlier style-wise and genre-wise as it's pure prog, but it really taps into a specific brand of anger for me and I love it.

Alt: The aforementioned Charcoal Grace IV: Give Me Hell aka "Give back the years you stole and beg me".

7. Amaranth by Nightwish

Caress the one, the never-fading rain in your heart

Listen, this one is here purely because I imprinted on the music video with the wounded angel when I was 15. But also there's a couple of amaranth-as-tied-to-immortality "never-fading" references in it so it stays.

Alt: Sleeping Sun for a calm, sad, yearning time.

8. The Maiden and the Minstrel Knight by Blind Guardian

Proudly it stands Until the world's end The victorious banner of love

A non-angry one to end things on! Blind Guardian is one of my favourite bands ever and so they were bound to be here. It's been really hard to stick to one two songs per artist. Anyway, I wouldn't go with this one as super directly applicable lyrically as it's a Tristan and Isolde song, but the chorus gets me, I love listening to it, and I maintain it has the correct Vibes.

Alt: When Sorrow Sang, aka the Beren and Luthien song off their Silmarillion album, for all the obvious mortal/immortal reasons.

[bucketspammer4life]

disco kid headcanons because hes the awesomest boxer ever

he literally has done nothing wrong in his entire career, he is literally a solid green flag im willing to throw hands about this

Has a comically bad singing voice, it's so horrid that one of the boxers thought he was screaming in pain once but it was just him trying to hit a high note, he unfortunately doesn't really understand why people think his voice is bad since he is a tad bit tone deaf.

Tends to be a little bit oblivious with people, he always gives people the benefit of the doubt as he doesn't want to assume the worst immediately, this has gotten him into stuff he shouldn't multiple times.

Can and will show off his dancing skills whenever anyone even mentions dancing. (he is talented though)

Likes randomly challenging the other boxers to a dance-off randomly when he feels like it.

Hates bugs and is absolutely terrified of them, doesn't matter how harmless it is, he can and will scream his lungs out.

Always told people he was a natural blonde when he was a teenager, he got shut down very quickly about it after he forgot to get his roots done.

Has punched someone over a game of uno once.

Has made friends with everyone in the WVBA, literally has no enemies.

Has really good pain tolerance to the point where he can brush off breaking his arm in 2 different places, has freaked out the other boxers because of this before.

Unironically likes biting into lemons, thinks the sour taste is refreshing.

Sometimes wears purposefully bad outfits to annoy anyone who cares about fashion (coughcoughglassjoecoughcoughwheeze) and enjoys seeing their reactions, actually wears some banger outfits when he isn't wearing the worst outfit you haven't seen.

[bateman-whore]

The slasher’s favorite bands

Michael Myers

AC/DC

I feel like he’s be really into Devoiced Dad Rock™️. He definitely would be into all of it like Billy Joel and The Beatles and such but AC/DC would be his all time.

Jason Voorhees

Chuck Berry

We all know how Jason lived a very sheltered childhood with his mother. The only music he could listen to was whatever his mother had on vinyl and most of it was religious hymns and probably like Sesame Street or some shit. Chuck Berry would probably be one of the very few vinyls that weren’t the two mentioned so it was a nice break.

Billy Loomis

Nickelback

I have a feeling he would talk so much shit about Nickelback and hate/ironically listen to them but soon over time it would slowly grow on him. But he would never admit that he started to actually like it.

Stu Macher

Weezer

He would definitely unironically listen to Weezer (honestly same tho) and not understand why people hated them so much. He would also probably accidentally leave one of his CDs in the CD player and Billy would get pissed off when he goes to use it and his eardrums get assaulted by Buddy Holly.

Vincent Sinclair

MCR

EMO ALERT! EMO ALERT! He would definitely get bullied by Bo about it but he can’t hear him over the the absolute banger lyrics.

Bo Sinclair

Zach Bryan

Since Bo is a Country Boy™️, this man is definitely listening to Zach Bryan. He would also definitely post videos of his trucks/cars and or him crying about how sad his life is to Zach Bryan songs.

[diabolocracy]

This is going to live rent free in my head until I get it out, so:

Hell yeah I'm a fucking degenerate.

Here's some backstory about this - actually quite shitty - word.

The Definition as per the Eugenics Encyclopedia. It features such wondrous bangers as, "based on the premise that certain (lower) social classes and races were predisposed to various neurological and mental illnesses due to bad heredity, resulting in social degradation, ... it attributed general conditions such as mental instability and poor health to certain types of behaviours, such as having an 'immoral lifestyle.'"

Heeey, that (and the rest) sounds kind of racist and ableist and all kinds of other -ists commonly attributed to nazis and far-right goons...

The etymology of the word degeneration. "loss or impairment of the qualities proper to the race or kind," also figurative, "descent to an inferior state," from French dégéneration (15c.) or directly from Late Latin degenerationem (nominative degeneratio), noun of action from past-participle stem of Latin degenerare "to be inferior to one's ancestors, to become unlike one's race or kind, fall from ancestral quality," used of physical as well as moral qualities, from phrase de genere, from de "down from, away from" (see de-) + genus (genitive generis) "birth, descent" (from PIE root *gene- "give birth, beget").

... Wowie!

Actually... Let's just cut to the chase, huh?

Nazi Terminology A German cardinal has triggered a storm of criticism in Germany by describing atheist art as "degenerate" -- a term usually avoided in public discourse because of its association with the Nazis.

Fancy that.

Nazis (and the far-right and their various ilk) hate those that they declare degenerates.

So maybe, just maybe, being a degenerate is a fucking good thing. If you're pissing off a nazi, you're doing something right!

And maybe... Just maybe... If you don't want to be lumped in with them, you should keep in mind where the words you utilize and apply to those you hate, happen to come from!

Oh, also the word "groomer" when applied flagrantly to those you don't like is also a fascist tactic.

As is pedojacketing and "think of the children" rhetoric in general, really -- fascist and authoritarian.

You see it from the alt-right and nazi-types all the fucking time unless you're blind as shit.

If you purport to be a libby yet utilize the terminology of your political opponent when it's convenient against people you don't like unironically (especially of those people happen to be the same people your opponent doesn't like)--well, it is as they say: scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.

Those claiming to be leftists have no excuse other than, hey, maybe you aren't as left as you claim to be. Maybe you're just another libby.
