I don't know why there's no Nobel Prize for song and lyric writing. Music is the most genius form of universal communication on this earth... And we all know that most songwriters don't get enough public fame, credit or recognition.
This too shall pass (x)

Cassette Futurism God Tier
Cassette Futurism god tier for real thoā¦
Who made these and how can I support them?
Awesome artist Simon StƄlenhag made those.
How can we forget solarpunk! (My personal favorite)
reblogging this so I can add a Cassette Futurism game rec: Quadrilateral Cowboy (itās very good (if you like hacking/heist games))
Hercules is the most visually creative of the Disney Reneissance films. If not any Disney film ever.
The three Fates sharing an eye.
Hadesā flaming hair.Ā
The various designs of the mythological monsters and titans.
The diverse faces and body types of all the minor characters.
Itās a very visually engaging movie.
How could I forget the Underworld
And the opening sequence
Yāall need to get off Walter Disneyās cock
Jeez, I just said the movie looks nice. No need to get antsy.
Also like, pretty sure WD didnāt make that movie. It was the effort of various animators who sometimes get overlooked because we donāt see them WORKING on it for so many days, just the two hour long result.
Pretty sure that Walt Disney didnāt work on Hercules since it came out decades after he died.
Fun fact! The reason Hercules has such a unique style is because Musker and Clements brought illustrater Gerald Scarfe (famous for his work on Pink Floydās The Wall) to be the conceptual character artist. His original character designs are wild
Hey kids, did you know that you can be critical of a company and acknowledge how shitty it is in its business practices, and appreciate that it produces a lot of good art, much of which is created by artists and animators who have nothing whatsoever to do with the aforementioned shitty business practices?
Fucking wild that you can do that.
are you unable to perform any simple daily task without listening to music or are you normal

consider: teenagers arenāt apathetic about everything theyāre just used to you shitting all over whatever they show excitement about
Teen: *gets a job*
āI GOT THE JOB!ā
Parents: Well, when I was your age, I already had 5 jobs and was supporting my family
Teen: *gets all Aās*
āI worked really hard!ā
Parents: Well, of course you did, this is the expectation, not a celebration.
probably why so many teens take to social media where they can enthusiastically share their interests and achievements and get positive feedback that their parents never gave
A LITTLE LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
I remember once, when I was in my early 20s, I was an afternoon supervisor at my job, and I worked with mostly teenagers, and the one day this one kid, who was like 15, was bored so I suggested he could clean out the fridge. He did and when he was done I said he did a good job.
After that, this kid was cleaning out the fridge at least once a week, and I was like, āwhy are you always cleaning the fridge?ā Like, I didnāt mind, but it seemed odd. And he said, āone time I cleaned the fridge and you said I did a good job. I wanted to make you proud of me again.ā
Literally, I changed the entire way I interacted with teenagers after that. I actually got a package of glitter stars and I would stick them on their nametags when they did a good job, and they loved it.
My manager had commented on how hard these kids work and I said, ātheyāre starved for positive feedback. They go to school all day then come to work all evening and no one appreciates it because itās expected of them, but theyāre still kids. They need positive feedback from adults in their lives.ā
Like, everyone likes feeling appreciated. Everyone likes being complimented and having their efforts be noticed. Another coworker (who was a mother of teenage children), hated that I did this, and said they were too old to be rewarded with stickers, but likeā¦ it wasnāt about the stickers. The stickers were just a symbol that their effort was noticed and appreciated. I was just lucky that I learned this at a time when I was still young enough to remember what it was like to be a teenager. I was only 2 years out of highschool at that point and highschool is fucking hard. People forget this as they get older, but ask anyone and almost no one would ever want to go back and do it again, but they expect kids to suck it up because theyāre young so they should be able to do school full time, plus homework, and work, and maintain a healthy social life, and sleep, and spend time with family, and do chores and help out at home, and worry about college and relationships and everything else, and then just get shit on all the time and treated like theyāre lazy and entitled. And then they wonder why teenagers are apathetic.
For a german exam I had to argue against an article that was essentially ākids these days, they donāt care about anything and are constantly on their phonesā and really it was the easiest essay Iāve ever written.
Teens donāt talk to adults bc adults only ask āso, howās schoolā to then interrupt them two sentences in. And because they canāt engage in a conversation about buying houses and working in a bank. I wouldāve loved to talk about philosophy and politics and history with family the way I did with friends and in class but because I was young no one took what I had to say seriously.
And no, teens arenāt always on their phone. Theyāre on their phone when theyāre bored. You think Iām on social media when Iām with my friends? When Iām talking about something Iām interested in?
Maybe the reason kids are so distant and always on their phone during family parties and the like is because youāre failing to engage and include them.
Whoop there it is
When you respect kids, they really respond and learn from you. But if you treat kids like ātheyre just a kid, what do they know??ā then youāll never find out.
As a Disneyland Cast Member, Iāll add my own experience onto this ā
Very frequently, when I first speak to a child while Iām at work, theyāll kind of withdraw and act uncomfortable and shy. Their parents will then rather frequently tell them to not be shy and try to coax them to talk to me ā whenever that happens, I always, without fail, politely dissuade the parents from pressuring them.
āIām a stranger,ā Iāll tell the kidās parents. āI donāt blame them for not talking to me ā if they were anywhere else, theyād have the right idea, to not immediately trust me.ā
I cannot tell you how many times Iāve seen that same kid ā simply after hearing their initial reaction being validated, instead of reproached ā immediately open up to me after that. I also cannot tell you how many times that child and I would go on to start a frigginā marathon conversation, and I got to hear all about how great their day was or what their favorite Disney movies were or what rides they liked and didnāt like or how much they like a certain Disney character or songā¦all from me validating that initial feeling and showing genuine interest in what they had to say.
This isnāt just young children, either. I will always remember being positioned outside the Animation Academy one day and starting up a conversation with a young lady, perhaps 12 or 13, who joined the line with her father a full 25 minutes before the class was supposed to start. Now keep in mind, we do a drawing class every 30 minutes: there was no one else in line at that point, and no one else joined the girl and her father in line for a full fifteen minutes. So I could tell pretty quickly that this girl was very emotionally invested in getting a good spot for the drawing class: a conclusion all the more bolstered by the fact that she had a notebook under her arm. I asked her if she was an artist ā she said yes, but seemed uncomfortable at the question, so I skipped even asking her if I could see her work, instead admitting that I myself wasnāt very good at art, but that Iām trying to get better and that I love the history of Disney animation. On the screens around us was video footage of different Disney concept art and animation reels, so I pointed one of them out (for Snow White) and asked if she knew the story behind the making of the movie. Upon confirming that she didnāt, I proceeded to get down on the floor so I could sit next to her and her father and dramatically tell the whole story of how āUncle Waltā created the first full-length animated motion picture, even though everyone and their mother thought he was an idiot for even trying, and how the film ended up becoming the first Hollywood blockbuster. After the story was over, the girlās father said that his daughter really wanted to be an animator when she grew up, and she finally felt comfortable enough to open her notebook and show me some of her artwork. It was wonderful! Every sketch had such character and you could tell how much work she put into it! And I could tell how much telling her that ā and sharing that moment with her, where we got to connect over something we both really enjoyed ā had meant. And after the class was over, she sought me out to show me what she and her father had drawn ā and sure enough, hers was great! (Her fatherās was too, really. XD)
People, kids and teens included, love sharing what they love and how they feel with others. You just have to give them the chance to show it.
A LITTLE LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!
-~-
I feel like I am obliged to add one more thing: donāt ever think that the kids wonāt feel your unspoken judgements cause they do!
I felt always like a āproblemā in my family, until I was about sixteen, I got this teacher who was litterally the first to tell I was worthy. He changed my life up till this day.
Also how do grown ups imagine how āweā will ever learn to engage in conversations with adults properly if you donāt teach us?
This post is
Everything
I told one of my new coworkers (who is 26) that he was doing really well and that I was proud of him and his progress. I thought he was going to start crying for how quietly he saidĀ āreally?ā.Ā
Positive feedback makes the biggest difference to everything.
iām extremely lucky that iāve always gotten positive feedback and proper attention + engagement from my parents.
i can count on one hand the times iāve gotten it from anyone else.
teenagers are so attached to their phones at school because itās one of the only things we have all day that makes us feel vaguely alright
Zare why would you hide this nugget of glorious truth in the tags this is literally everything I want to say but couldnāt figure out words for it

HAPPY 15TH ANNIVERSARY TO WHATEVER PEOPLE SAY I AM, THATāS WHAT IāM NOT (JAN. 23, 2006)
āThose cheeky Arctic Monkeys. Equal parts snotty precociousness, youthful vim and naive charm, the quartet sprang fully formed from the back streets of Sheffield and topped the charts with their first single āI Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloorā via word of mouth. No Americanisms, no excess, no jauntily-arched eyebrows. A baby-faced motley crew with no discernible ālookā, they dress in scruffy casual clothing and refuse to talk themselves up.
ā¦
Indeed, in 19-year-old Turner the Arctic Monkeys have a genuinely charismatic frontman with a dose of the sneering panache that made Liam Gallagher great. His lyrical stance casts him as a younger, grittier cousin of fellow Yorkshire geezer savant Jarvis Cocker. The pleasure is in the microscopic detail - snatches of conversation, gestures and flirtatious glances - all of which is instantaneously recognisable.
ā¦
This latent maturity suggests that Turner can only improve with time. Indeed his songs are already greeted like timeless classics at gigs. And if they donāt cock it up by going too mad with rock'n'rollās outlandish fripperies, the Arctic Monkeys are poised to make an indelible connection with a generation of music lovers hungry for visceral thrills.ā

āAll the boys [in the band] got shorter hair, and I thought, āWhat can I do to one-up them?ā I am the singer after all, and youāve gotta be a dick sometimes,ā Turner says, laughing. āI saw an Elvis picture where he had the curl, and I thought, āMaybe IĀ could do that.ā Once you have the haircut, certain clothes just start to look right, donāt they?ā
