Plugged in
I know I'm a bit late since It was two days ago- but it still counts.
When I was only 5 years old, I watched Megamind, which had the song "Bad" in the end scene. I loved the song so much that I excitedly asked my mom who made it. It was then she exposed me to Michael Jackson. We had a CD of all his greatest music videos, and I used to put it in our Xbox and watch it every single morning. Watching him dance, sing, and just be himself in his element. Little me had a giant crush on him (I still do LOL) As I grew older my mom burned a CD for me with all my favorites in it, I had a little radio I would always put it in. I listened to him all throughout my elementary school, moving up to middle school. As a lonely kid who didn't have many friends- it felt as if he was there. Every night when I'd get home. I'd cry to sleep to "You are not alone" and keep it on repeat for myself.
Something I remember as a kid was always asking questions about him to my mom, who grew up in his time. I remember asking why the color of his skin changed, and referred to his eras as "when he was black" and "when he was white" My mom tried explaining vitiligo to me but I didn't get it until I was a teenager. But either way, I just loved him.
Coming to current day.. Watching the Michael movie was the most moving, emotional experience for me. I thought he was really there the whole time. I cried like a baby for him and how his life went. How even in death people still don't let him rest.. and choose to spread lies and deface him out of jealousy and control. He was proven innocent every single time he was taken to court, they found nothing in neverland. Remember that.
Allegations and messy stuff aside.. 17 years ago we lost a man who was like no other. Someone kind, someone loving, hardworking, patient, talented, progressive, ever moving. He was healing the world, and he was killed for it. He is the biggest inspiration of my life, I only started making music because of him. And I owe it to him as a music artist my thanks. If it were not for him- I never would've thought about making my own music. Rest in eternal peace Michael Jackson. You were loved more than you knew.
back to the style it all started with <3
ych comms for @rosescarletful :D ! ! ! join the waitlist to be notified when slots for these YCH reopen ^_^/ ⋆。°✩
Why are all the members so persistent on pretending to be human when it's so obvious they're not?
Why does the lion hide in the grass?
Why does the snake blend in with the branches?
Why does the alligator appear to be just a floating log?
Isn't it interesting how predators always try to go unnoticed by their prey? The prey questions the camouflage, notices something strange, but they're still there, staring carelessly.
My CRT an all original Tenna themed album is in the works RIGHT now! Keep your eyes out for it!!!
Apologies all! Due to a migraine that has yet to go away or respond to my normal retinue of pain management, I unfortunately have to cancel the stream that was planned for tonight-- I'll try to see if I'm able to get something on the books later this week, otherwise I'll be live next Sunday!
@vangellive: Here goes my question, also, thanks for doing this dynamic, Neko and Mods! :3 <3 ((For TT: My darling Ticket Taker, I have heard your birthday is in this 28 of June, may I ask what's your favorite food or sweet? Take care! <3
Is this question related to my birthday, by any chance? I have always preferred simpler desserts. A good muffin served with coffee or a fine tea is more than enough for me.
@aketsusoraart: For Ticket Taker: Good morning, dear Ticket Taker, would you allow Harlequin to have his motorcycle if someone from your family personally gave it to him as a gift?
No respecting member of my family would give someone like Harlequin the time of day, let alone such an irresponsible gift.
@beanofspace: To the Mister, with the classy top hat, Ticket Taker Sir, may I ask; How do you stay on top of today's modern fashion trends, yet still dressed as a fine gentleman? (i dunno- i blacked out for a second)
Trends change far more frequently than one might imagine. I make a point of keeping myself informed of such developments, though most of those changes are not really intended for someone like me.
@klaooe: Hi there! I have a question for Mr. Ticket Taker! Have you always held such high respect and regards for Jester ever since you first met him?
No. When I first met him, he was quite… different. Completely different, in fact. There was nothing about him that particularly caught my attention.
@orchidinthegarden: To Ticket: what is the most precious memory you have with all the circus members, the one you keep close to your heart when you have to push forward?
That's a rather unexpected question. However, one memory immediately comes to mind—the day we bought the trailer. It was a remarkable moment for all of us. Everyone was smiling, filled with excitement. For the first time, it felt as though we had a place that felt genuinely comfortable.
@hinata28h: To the distinguised gentleman, Ticket Taker. Do you have any favorite moments from your tent?
I must admit, I do enjoy watching people lose themselves in my mirror maze. They create their own terrors far more effectively than I ever could. All I do is provide the reflection. The rest comes from them.
@luadecristalduds: Para bilheteiro: na vossa opinião, o Sr acha que o conceito circo está decaindo? Hoje em dia as pessoas não vão mais ao circo com frequência (ao menos aqui no Brasil). Já percebeu este impacto ou ainda não? Tenha um bom dia Translation: A question for the ticket taker: In your opinion, do you think the concept of the circus is in decline? Nowadays, people don't go to the circus very often (at least not here in Brazil). Have you noticed this impact yet? Have a good day.
O Brasil é muito vasto para se assumir isso.
What draws people in is the presentation. The image. The promise of something unusual.
Our performances are carefully designed to inspire a darker sort of curiosity than one would expect from a traditional circus. Thus far, we have yet to fail in selling every ticket.
That said, sentimentality has no place in business. If circumstances require us to pursue a different venture in the future, we shall do so without hesitation.
@lilithhound: To Ticket Taker *bows head* Good Good afternoon Ticket Taker. Since today is a celebration, I hope you get the chance to treat yourself to something nice for everything you do for the Circus. What sorts of things do you like/would you like to do as something for yourself?
How courteous, dear guest. I enjoy that. I rarely think of my own pleasures in such terms. Perhaps I would purchase a new coffee for Jester and me to sample. He has a remarkably reliable sense for determining whether others will appreciate a particular indulgence. Besides, our disagreements over such matters provide a surprisingly entertaining use of time.
@mech1t4: Very happy 1st anniversary!!! 🥳✨This question is for Ticket Taker. What do you think is the hardest part of settling into a new city?
Aside from unfamiliar customs and languages, I would say local legislation presents the greatest challenge.
I make it a point to familiarize myself with regional laws before we establish the circus in any location. Avoiding unnecessary legal complications saves everyone a great deal of inconvenience.
@micchijans-blog: Hi Ticket Taker! You're one of the most intriguing characters in the circus, and I've always wondered about the people you meet every day. What's the strangest thing you've ever seen a guest do?
Intriguing? I would argue that my attire is among the least remarkable when compared to the rest of the troupe.
As for peculiar behavior, I have witnessed no shortage of it among our guests. I have seen visitors ask Doctor to remove perfectly healthy limbs. Others have attempted to enter restricted areas despite repeated warnings. Some request embraces from the performers. Others attempt to purchase them outright.
Frankly, dear guest, there are moments when the audience comes far closer to being unsettling than the attractions themselves.
All of you owe Gooseworx an apology. You pushed her into never wanting to touch her own creation every again. I am disgusted with how she was treated. And don't go complaining about the finale. Just stop. She's had enough. Leave her alone.
Guys, if I ever reblog fanart, don't ask tadc questions in the comments because I will not answer them. It's also just disrespectful to the artist.
What's a message you want people to take away from TADC?
That there's meaning to be found in a stagnant life.
This was just a nice show to have while I was going in my twenties.
Without offering spoilers or going into detail, I have to say I greatly respect the story that The Amazing Digital Circus set out to tell. It touches on some very deep aspects of personhood, memories, existence, what it means to live in the face of something terrifying and beyond ourselves.
As someone who struggles to deal with those things— existentialism, finding meaning in one's life and community and thensome, I find that there is an incredible amount of comfort to be felt in TADC and how the story began, grew, and has ended.
While I am disappointed in the amount of vitriol and disrespect some have chosen to take over the life of TADC up until the finale, I am nonetheless grateful that the story was told how it was originally intended and that I got to see it myself!
Remember, there's meaning to be found in a stagnant life.
