[bedupolker]

I forgot to add this in my ask 😔 anyway do you have a list of favorite songs with The Bad Romance Chord? Or just an updated list of favorites from the strokes idk.

ummmmm off the top of my head outside of the strokes and Ms Gaga herself,

Veridis Quo - Daft Punk (debatable. & maybe it came out first?)

Set to attack - Albert Hammond Jr (he's one of the strokes, this is his solo work)

Rose pink Cadillac - dope lemon

As it was - Harry Styles

Volcano - the moving stills

Beanie - chezile

Out like a light - Ricky Montgomery

Kill bill - SZA

The physical attractions - the symposium

That one Mozart song

Maaaaybe some of these are stretches. I'm not a music person in the sense of having an ear for chords and keys and all that. Sure there are plenty of others too.

& there haven't been any new strokes releases other than one pretty mid single from an upcoming album. Side project wise, Russian coney island by the voidz was cool, but i pefer the demo.

An older release I don't know if ive talked about, Little Joy is a Brazilian group that includes the Strokes' drummer. Put out one 30 minute album in 2008, quality over quantity!!!!! I like the drummer's other side project Machinegum too (another one album wonder....)

[bedupolker]

Ok this 15 minute youtube video coins it as the "the gen alpha melody" Cool to hear someone who actually knows music theory describe it!

He links to this playlist, my only critique is that the Mild High club song wasn't higher up, their lyrics feel the most fitting

I have GOT to stop spending $30

Whatever.

i think rickrolling is the only meme that gets objectively funnier with age. in 2009 you learned to anticipate it but in 2019 it happens just infreqently enough that i fall for it every single time

[ghoulgoon]

like people still make rage comics and doge jokes and shit but it’s always ironic (the real punchline is that you’re using an outdated format) or more in line with modern absurd internet humor. rickrolling is the only meme i can think of that’s been the exact same for a full decade- click on a link thinking you’re getting something else, get rick astley instead, and it’s still consistently funny

[miss-bubles]

the more time passes the more foolish you feel for falling for a rickroll as well. Like darn I learnt about this prank 10+ years ago how did I just fall for it now,

[myothertardisisonthemun]

Plus, as far as memes go, turns out it’s still incredibly popular 

[doggendoodle]

Nooope. Nope, you can’t get me. I’m not clicking on that link and you can’t make me.

[themodernmaccabee]

I am a fool for clicking

[lyteupthelyfe]

it’s honestly so, so fascinating—here’s a graph I found that estimates how many people have been rickrolled in the past decade!

May her memory be a blessing

[sashayed]

but ykw at least i'm not on mount everest. at least i'm not paying tens of thousands of dollars to slowly suffocate in a 300-person line at the gates of hell. never in my life will i have to be steered in a hypoxic stupor through the maze of poop and corpses atop mount everest. on this earth a lot of horrible things can happen to you without your permission but there are a few that you have to opt into. you can just say no thanks! and be guaranteed never to have to be on mount everest. much to be grateful for actually

[sashayed]

still not on mount everest this morning 😌 alhamdulillah

[podcake]

You are a long forgotten god. A small girl leaves a piece of candy at your shrine, and you awaken. Now, you must do everything to protect your High Priestess, the girl, and her entire kindergarten class, your worshipers.

[dycefic]

The stone was immovable, in the past. Indestructible. A spire of granite no mortal hand could even alter.

But mortal hands build clever tools, and these last few hundred years I have lived in dread that they will break this, my sacred stone, the last link that preserves me, a faint shadow of a forgotten god. While my sacred stone stands, I do not, quite, fade away.

I am in a park, now, clipped and tamed, my forests long gone. But they landscape around me and my stone, admiring its beauty, so I do not complain. While they take pleasure in the stone, I am safe.

There is a playground a few lengths away, and the laughter and happy shrieking rouse me a little from my sleep. I watched over children, once. It’s nice to hear them again.

But I don’t truly awaken until the Offering is made.

Little hands touch my stone, with curiosity and a sort of reverence that only the very young feel now. For a child young enough the world is still a mystery, and even an ancient granite stone provokes wonder. So I stir, when she touches the stone, becoming hazily aware.

And then, solemnly, the child places a tiny colourful object in the roughly shaped alcove in the stone’s side, the place where offerings were laid two thousand years ago and more, and I awaken. Many people have put things in that alcove, of course… to take pictures, usually, these days, or putting a lost object where it will be seen. Merely to place an object in the alcove isn’t enough. A true offering is given as a gift, with intent.

As this is.

Post canon Toph who doesn’t want to go back to her shitty parents so she just decides to stay in the Fire Nation and bum off Zuko’s hospitality.

Zuko’s like no, yeah, I totally get it, and just makes her one of his advisors. At first it’s just so she has a good excuse to stay but after the first meeting Toph storms out shouting about how EVERYONE was lying why would you even need to lie about what kind of tea you want??

Zuko: I mean they’re politicians…..but also who, and when, and in what way

They make a subtle Morse code system so Toph can warn him when someone is lying to him without tipping anyone off that she can sense lies.

Zuko gets a reputation for somehow being both extremely socially inept and yet somehow disgustingly perceptive?? You can’t get ANYTHING by him???

a big part of being happy is being excited. be excited for everything - making a cup of tea, decorating your future apartment, seeing a friend again, falling in love unexpectedly, the next episode of a show you like, finishing something stressful, buying something you’ve been saving up for, a new album, sunsets, traveling, road trips, and the feeling of going to bed after a long day. think of something to be excited about and daydream about it often when you’re sad.
