Ask me many a thing and you will get answers of varying truth and validity.

I cannot believe there's absolutely no way to watch free shows and movies anymore, there are too many paid streaming platforms and pirating websites have viruses and ads preventing you from watching it uninterrupted((.)) id rather follow the rules and purchase media moving forward because it is too inconvenient. Seriously, free and no ads or viruses with 1080p streaming is DEAD.

[part-time-zombie]

Exactly! It's freaking annoying when I want to watch movies but I would have to subscribe to like 24 different services . Just to watch the shows that I like.

[someones-here-for-sure]

Oh and wouldn’t it be nice for cartoons? Just anything animated. I just wanna stream things without getting conned. Must I be cartoonless forever?

[tinypaperwindmill]

i like using streaming apps but there are waaaay too many and they're all stealing my data .i wish there was a secure and organized way to have millions of shows and movies available one one app. but alas. we've truly gone full circle back to cable + now it spies on you. its a real shame. i dont want to fill my device storage with tons of boring and stupid cash grabs.

Rose Lalonde and the effects of Weezer on the mind.

So i was playing Hollow Knight on my own time trying to kick Hornet's ass when I had Across the Sea by Weezer on and it was kind of a vibe. I was thinking about things I wanted to do with Rose. But as a side tangent; listening to it and really thinking about it, a lot of my experience was going hm "Rivers Cuomo seems really lost like this isnt really about the girl as much as it is escapism from a situation and wanting to be saved" In some way i feel like this guy doesnt even understand that its not about the girl but its the closest thing to being able to escape. And i was thinking about what to do with the fact i want to do something with Rose Lalonde from Homestuck, and i had an idea come to me which leads to this tangent making sense in the long run. Watch how i justify this one.

If you're aware of some probably more forgettable moments in Homestuck, which im assuming you are since you're probably some level of autistic like me, namely Davesprite's origin, you'll know that the Rose from that doomed timeline uses a really early version of light powers to escape and sort of integrates into Alpha Rose and gels into her. And so I kind of immediately got the idea of what if I played a Rose who did that, but didn't stop doing that.

Like, it started out as a sort of fun thing and or reconnaissance for what may or may not happen in the relative future, but eventually ends up doing it too much and abusing the ability, stretching what a Seer can do and really exploring the limits of where she could go with it.

She keeps hopping into new bodies with new memories that arent hers, most of all of them doomed. It's sorta why her stories are inconsistent but she seems to know more than she should, and why she's wiser than her years aside from typical seer stuff. Like it's sorta playing on the idea of an "Ultimate" from post canon stuff but taking it in a more learned/earned direction, coming at a price of self-oblivion. It'd also be an interesting way to explore more dramatically doomed timelines without commitment and in an in-character exploratory sense.

Across the Sea comes in because I feel like this Rose would be really lost. Even if she doesn't recognize it, and she's kind of looking for anchors to be able to do anything with, so she's romanticizing these relationships to people that arent from her time because she never sticks around to even get to know the John Dave and Jade of those timelines. And if she does, it's spent being a Rose she isn't. I dont even know if she knows if she's doomed or not.

She just started doing it for fun and kind of got lost in it. You learn too much and your brain just stops retaining it. I think at this point she's just trying to find one that isn't doomed at this point and settle but I don't think she would be able to anymore, you spend so long just moving and moving, it's almost like you can't stop. Rose has been coasting on bodies that arent hers for years and thus is kind of more ethereal and thinks herself somewhat above it. But she's still human, she isn't a cold monster like you'd probably see in post-canon with how she treats Kanaya for example. She has attachments and fears and such. She just thinks she's not as lost as she probably is. She's across the sea. The sea being an endless expanse of nothingness being traversed haphazardly with only the idea of a map

"Theres a sentiment of ascending from what you were for the sake of the things around you to the point that you become something different from the thing that you were in the first place, but you still serve that purpose even it it's not even to anyone in particular anymore. She's doing it for a reason but the her who would value such a reason has ceased to be in the doing of it, and now all that remains is the will. Sure, the reason might even still apply but it has subordinated her in a way." - A friend who I explained this concept to

That's the general idea at least

If you wanna give this concept/au or whatever a name something like Traveler or Traveler Rose would work i think. Maybe Ill post more about her if people care.

~~ gradualZither [GZ] has joined the memo ! ~~

~~ phantasyHouse [PH] has joined the memo ! ~~

[16:25] PH: i wonder if laura palmer is jesus.

~~ gradualZither [GZ] pinned a message to the memo ! ~~

[17:25] PH: what was pinned,, [17:25] PH: oh. [17:25] PH: I'M NOT WRONG THOUGH [17:26] PH: SHE DIED FOR OUR SINS GZ

[01:36] PH: it's the way that she's recapitulated over and over (see: maddy), survives in icon form, is surrounded by young disciples who cannot go where she goes (donna, bobby, even ronette). she's surrounded by upsetting arcane symbolism [01:37] PH: i can write this essay i swear

[01:38] PH: she's definitely interpretable as a martyr and there is absolutely a supratemporally mystical, well, mystery about her death [01:39] PH: is that what the black lodge is [01:39] PH: symbolic realm for those who come dislodged from secular time [01:39] PH: tall figures and ocd flickers

[01:43] PH: “fire walk with me” as an invitation to walk as the figure does, the fire walk being impossible except to the initiate [01:43] PH: i guess the log lady gets it [01:43] PH: her log is a figure too

[01:46] PH: is that martyrdom? becoming the site of a temporal rupture, figuratisation, opening up into something timeless? recapitulated through your image? [01:47] PH: makes things seem worthwhile [01:47] PH: makes things that aren't art seem like art

[01:52] PH: reminded of laura's behaviour throughout fire walk with me. the erratic mystic strangeness, the way she talks to harold, those moments of strange pale makeup, black corpse lips as she hisses the fire-walk invitation. her rupturous death literally prefigures itself

[01:53] PH: i'll shut up now

~~ phantasyHouse [PH] has left the memo ! ~~ ~~ phantasyHouse [PH] has joined the memo ! ~~

[01:53] PH: or maybe not

[01:54] PH: part of what's so great about her and the pain of it all is that. we go to great pains to make it clear that laura ISN'T just a cipher. she had friends, and family, and so many lives through so many prisms. people loved her. she isn't just a jesus analogue [01:54] PH: but she's a figure before we even get to know that [01:55] PH: maybe that's the trauma twin peaks mysticises [01:56] PH: that of a deeply open-ended and thoroughly alive human being stultified into a figure [01:58] PH: that idealistic propulsion into timelessness and iconicism spoiled by the most beautiful and most low humanity laura the person embodied

[02:01] PH: the way she's used to act out arcane symbols like a figurative creature. that gesture, then “meanwhiiiile, [blood-curdling scream].” it just doesn't work. the way her imagicised self still helps agent cooper in earthly matters. she and the portrayal of trauma inflicted on her loved ones model the inability for a human to enter that figurative, religicised world [02:02] PH: she's DEAD [02:02] PH: she's always dead [02:02] PH: it sucks

[02:04] okay that's all for real now i'm babbling tiredly and will probably be embarrassed by this when i next see it

~~ phantasyHouse [PH] has left the memo ! ~~ ~~ phantasyHouse [PH] has joined the memo ! ~~

[02:21] PH: maybe a person can be many different things but still have these things be united under an identity. but to make a figure from a person is to allow the interpretations to spill out without a present identity under which to unite them

[02:21] PH: i feel like that's another thing twin peaks illustrates [02:22] PH: how laura has to be… reconstituted from so many conflcting sense-perspectives [02:22] PH: in a way that's so at odds with the iconicised laura over which the credits roll each episode

[02:23] PH: guh

[02:24] PH: the reminder that laura “is the one” really takes on some new meaning when you take her death as that whole kind of… disuniting, the loosening of the identity-knot that just barely kept the sum of what she was from spilling out everywhere

[02:31] PH: think thoughts genuinely are done for now though

~~ phantasyHouse [PH] has left the memo ! ~~ ~~ phantasyHouse [PH] has joined the memo ! ~~

[11:31] PH: a book i read recently suggested the idea of the polyphonic novel: the work in which every speaker is made a subject rather than an object. it works by address: by having subjective cores address one another, breaking free of the bounds of secular ‘plot’ in which they dwell. the book describes how to objectify is to kill, and to close all loose ends. it talks about old carnival genres, about how folk traditions are the ones in which voices blend and speak as one, contrasted with the oppressively monologic pulpit of the modern novel. comedy, and humour, and humanising joy [11:32] PH: i think in death, and in iconisation, laura is never a subject again [11:34] PH: forever objectified in death, damned to the otherlife as an icon, loose ends cut cleanly short and sutured shut. the town tries to reconstruct her in their polyphony so that even an outsider with the special ears to hear it, cooper, might come to know her. maybe that itself is the suturing, thought maybe they're picking the wound apart so she can be a subject again, and recoiling at the blood they let out?

[11:38] PH: red and black, colours of blood and blood attempting to heal, clotting [11:38] PH: stop me please

[11:40] PH: i so wish twin peaks gave a better way to grieve than it does [11:42] PH: sarah palmer is the idea of a griever that sticks with me so hard. but she never ever ever gets over it. maybe it's law enforcement's promises to get ‘closure’, television-style, on a case which can never ever ever be closed, only ripped open painfully until it's worse than it was before. [11:44] PH: i don't think the suggestion is that we must never look to find people again when they're gone. maybe it's that giving them the love they deserve when they're alive means a wound that heals better, or at least might heal. some scar deep and forever but you can surely avoid an infection

[11:48] PH: twin peaks dramatising grief on the community level as it attempts to re-subjectify the dead through endless objectification, iconicisation, experiments in human substitions by way of doppelgangers and amputation, and all those substitutive pleasures (love affairs, drugs, money, white-haired madness). and the disorienting effect this has on the individual griever, as carnival turns to abattoir, and everything's torn up

[11:51] PH: the second series, when almost everyone but sarah and leland begin to move on. is that meant to show a way forward? or just that it doesn't ever end [11:52] PH: i know the self-eating nature of the community and its troubled and multiple relationship with memory is a theme here but that can't be so much of the conclusion, i'd cry [11:52] PH: shut me up

[11:52] GZ: No

[11:52] PH: sobs [11:52] PH: crying [11:52] PH: well, what do you think then.

[11:53] GZ: Me reading the Laura Palmer thesis from my notifications

[11:56] PH: YOU WERE MAKING ME KEEP GOING OH MY GOD

[11:57] PH: can i post this all as a gz–ph dialogue

[11:57] GZ: ofc

[11:57] PH: i just hope something of value came across and you had thoughts too

[11:58] GZ: i didn't read it yet but I'm about to have an hour off of work

[11:58] PH: oh yay :)

[14:18] PH: is death the transfiguration of a singular performed subjectivity into a million scattered and substitutable iconistic objects which cannot be made to latch together in the lacuna left [14:18] PH: been going crazy today i think

[14:20] PH: dreamed about millipede baths

you can tell im 30-something because i bought a new brand of toothbrushes and im very pleased with them. toothbrushes generally have the same problem that tennis shoes for instance have in that they're overdesigned and consequently garish and ugly. but this is literally just a single piece of plastic, all one color, with a logo printed on it and white bristles. very tasteful. it's perfect.

for context’s sake: this is from JBVO, a show hosted by Johnny Bravo where you could call in and request your favorite episode of a CN show and Johnny would play it for you. for the most part it worked out pretty smoothly since at the time cn’s shows mostly had an average episode length of 7 to 11 minutes.

but one day a viewer requested that they play their favorite episode of dragon ball z, a show with 23-minute long episodes. due to time constraints with both dbz AND jbvo they had to work a compromise: a sped up version of the requested dbz episode played with johnny narrating over it so people understood what’s going on

[corpsegirlforever]

I hope everyone can appreciate something: this episode of DBZ had not aired on Toonami when they did this. Johnny Bravo spoiled the end of the season for everyone who watched it. What a legend
