it's been said a thousand times but "male loneliness epidemic" is just our entire generation's loneliness PANdemic. it's just the crisis of capitalism. almost all young people these days are lonely and depressed because of the crisis and decay of the system we live under and tbh the centering of "male loneliness" in this discussion is embarrassing but also a really understandable consequence of sexism & this current stage of culture war . "Oh won't someone think of the young men" oh won't someone think about class consciousness lol

police departments love to be like "we need more money to fight all the crime that's been happening lately" and they show a graph with crime going up at then you look into the numbers and it's like "the ten percent increase in crime was correlated with a ten percent increase in active policing hours" and it's like oh okay so the crime factory needs more money because the crime factory stayed open late to manufacture more crime in order to convince us to give more money to the crime factory. Where can I get off this carousel of misery?

constantly trying to see the inherent good in people is a humiliation ritual that i continue to willingly participate in

the moment you start feeling ugly as a woman you need to hit up a local suburban walmart and take a good hard look at the average woman to realize an average woman is not serving curated algorithmic beauty and aesthetic

Also I've been feeling the Road To Hell reprise from Hadestown in relation to MJ, with how he never gave up on trying to make the world better despite all that it cost him.

Oh my god I never drew that connection but ur literally so right…… “he could make you see how the world could be in spite of the way that it is.” The way it starts off so dark and ends up almost joyous and hopeful, like the message Michael left behind despite the tragedies he went through…….my heart man

Do you still have any plans for new video edits?

yes I do!!! I’m currently in the midst of making an MJ edit to don’t look back in anger by Oasis but I’m thinking of cutting it down because it’s pretty long. I also really want to make an MJ edit to the song all eyes on me by Bo Burnham bcs it’s pretty fitting. Some other contenders are BLUE by Billie Eilish, That’s life by Frank Sinatra, I don’t sell by umru or the opening to united by grief by Kendrick Lamar (or King Kunta. Especially the verse that actually mentions MJ!) I have soo many more ideas floating around as well, so much so that I’m actually thinking of trying my hand at an animatic with them some time in the future. One song that’s been bouncing around my head in particular is when I grow up from Matilda….. it’s so relevant and I want to do something inspired by that Pepsi commercial where Michael is singing with his younger self for it. Some others I was considering were 30/90 from Tick Tick boom, High Flying Adored from Evita, Two Time by Jack Stauber, The Greatest Show from The Greatest Showman, Heaven On Their Minds from JCS, Oh No! By MARINA, Things I Do For You by the Jacksons, Surface Pressure from Encanto and under pressure by Queen.

”He’s sort of like a fawn in a burning forest” remains one of my favorite quotes about Michael 😭

You have got to get it through your head that social media is literally pushing negative content to keep you engaged. Most people are not assholes! Not by a long shot! Most people do not look like those insane beauty standards they’ve pushed on us. Social media is a trap for your mind. It convinces you the worst is normal and the rare is common, until you forget what real life actually looks like. Of course, always be aware of your surroundings because unfortunately, there will always be crappy people, but this world is a lot bigger than your feed would have you believe.
