    It's often forgotten that Ringo invented Spongebob. He really is the best Beatle. I just wish he wasn't a shit husband, but then he wouldn't be a Beatle.

    This song has some of George's best guitar work too. It's so nice and tropical. The bubble sounds overdubbed onto the guitar solo are a nice touch. If only he didn't sleep with Ringo's wife.

    I think Ringo has a really pleasing voice though

    I will always fall for "revenge is bad" propaganda

    Not because I don't believe righteous retribution exists, but because I find the journey of letting go much more compelling :blob_hmm:

    But I also love characters who get their revenge but are left with nothing else :blob_hmm:

    I realize that "unhinged" would fit the idea I'm trying to convey better than "deranged" :sweating_profusely:

    The great artists of the world are at least a little bit unhinged. They are sickos about the object of their interest

    Who do you trust more, a questionable individual or an upstanding and not shady at all member of the shrimp community?

    Alski said I'm not allowed to feed the question mark until it opens its profile.

    I am realizing that I am not deranged enough. This is why I'm not as good of a writer as I could be. The greatest writers were all wackjobs.

    This isn't me romanticizing mental illness. I think derangedness can be a learned trait, independent of existing maladies.

    Rather... I think its more to do with... have strong feelings about "truths". Or incredible ability to understand a "truth" then interpret it.

    That could very well lead to derangement :blob_hmm:

    We all have that one friend who has a terrifyingly unhealthy lifestyle but still functions normally

    I feel my cynicism slowly melt away whenever I watch My Dress Up Darling. It portrays such a kind world :blob_aww:

    Or maybe I've just been out of high school for too long and the kids are actually alright :blob_hmm:

    It's a good manga, albeit the finish is way too rushed.

    I actually wasn't following the manga, but I followed the last few chapters, and I was baffled that the author just chose to end it there.

    Especially when a lot of modern romance manga are exploring what happens after the couple gets together :blob_hmm:

    The author said he(she?) will finish it way befor the finishing line. Author had 40 or so chapters to make a satisfying ending, yet it still end up feeling rushed. Weird case really.

    Deathconsciousness is a weird album. No one can even agree on its genre(s). It was made on a shoestring budget and a stone age mic. It might also be the only album to come with a wacky 70 page philosophical booklet about "Deathconsciousness" as a concept (idk I've never read it).

    The concept is of course "everything dies and nothing matters lol"

    Not the most cheery album. In fact, I had Bloodhail off the album as my first recommendation just for how downer it is.

    Earthmover is no different. It's like, about golems who want to die or something (idk I can hardly make out the lyrics). But this song just hits different. 11 and a half minutes of agony and pain.

    I don't want to spoil the song, but its second half conveys, what sounds to me, the feeling of death. It's like the classic light at the end of the tunnel, except it isn't a light. It isn't even the joke about the truck. It's just kinda something. The feeling's visceral and intense, but positive or negative descriptors just fail to explain it. It's Deathconsciousness.

    I will never fall for strawberry propaganda.

    Both real and artificial strawberries taste awful :blob_cringe:

    Good on cheesecakes though :blob_drool:

    I hate clicking on a Youtube cooking short only to see it was uploaded by Louis Gantus ?

    I do wonder what's making my formal/academic writing AI-like. Every essay, paper, or cover letter gets flagged by one of those AI detection websites—not at all the case with my creative writing :blob_hmm:

    Is it the em dashes?

    The Basque Rhesus factor rabbithole is nuts. What the fuck is going here?

    I like haplogroups, but like all sciences there's a lot of junk to sift through.

    Same, though I'm totally not an expert on them, so I wouldn't know what's going on. I assume there isn't enough bullshittery to get to whatever the first post was talking about though :blob_hmm:

    On a side note, it's good to know that this weird "We were actually X!" stuff is universal. Makes me feel better about my grandma telling me our ancestors actually "discovered" America :blob_hmm:

    We did sail to Australia and trade with some aboriginal people before the Europeans ever arrived though :blob_evil:

    Insert spiel about how Skrillex said this was his favorite song but his fans complained that it had no drop.

    This shit is incredible though. So ethereal, with just enough intrigue to keep it from getting stale. Something something they were ahead of their time or something.

    You can tell I don't really listen to electronic music.
