Day 7- futakuchi-onna

These guys are pretty cool actually, mawile is based off of them.

They’re a type of yokai. They aren’t necessarily evil either, often their stories involve the punishment of greed (mostly relating to food). As you can see, they often appear as an ordinary woman, however they have a section at the back of their skulls that splits open to allow a second mouth to feed. Apparently they can also manipulate hair as limbs, which I think is pretty neat.

illicit affairs by taylor swift from folklaw is such a Marvey song and i’m gonna need a video

[londonsboy]

me! (bc brendon), i think he knows & miss americana & the heartbreak prince (but an honourable mention goes to miss lover because she is Up There)

validddd when lover first came out miss americana and the heartbreak prince was my fave

[allseemnewandexciting]

My favourite thing about ‘my tears ricochet’ is that we don’t here the end of ‘stolen lullabies’, because that’s just it. There’re stolen. They have made it so difficult for Taylor to sing old songs, and there was no rythem or reason to it. She just couldn’t sing her songs when it suited them.

It’s probably the hardest part of the song to listen to, but it so so beautiful the way she showed what has been going on.

if we were villains, dead poets society & wine! ☺️

hi olivia! thanks a bunch for sending these!

if we were villains 🎭: are you into theatre? who’s your favourite shakespeare character? would you or do you smoke weed or cigarettes?

i’ve always liked theatre, but never looked beyond school plays until a few months ago; i’m just starting to immerse myself in its world! and of shakespeare’s plays, i’ve only ever read julius caesar, so from that, it’s marcus brutus– i think he’s a very complex character with a fascinating arc. also, i want to try weed (and/or edibles) at least once, but i’m not that interested in cigarettes.

dead poets society 🖋: do you prefer poetry or prose? do you get along with your parents? do you resist authority or do you deal well with it?

i prefer poetry over prose, but not by a large degree– poetry feels more freeing and vivid, for some reason? and i don’t get along with my parents, at least not as much as i want to (it’s just. a Hot Mess™). i typically deal well with authority, almost to a point of blind obedience; but i’m improving and learning to resist when the situation calls for it.

wine 🍷: how far would you go to help yourself? what about to help other people? do you think humans are inherently selfish?

if something is very high stakes for me, as long as i’m not stepping over or hurting other people for it, i can go against my own principles to help myself (it’s not something i’m proud of). on the other hand, i believe i would do everything i can to help the people and/or causes i care about. i think i’m a generally kind person and am willing to go out of my way to help strangers too. also, i do think humans are inherently selfish— but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad thing. i think we’re born with enough of selfishness to help us survive a constantly changing world and it’s instrumental in our growth. it can’t be helped, it’s pure instinct. but as we grow older, there starts adding up a conscious element to it. we’ll think of ourselves, and we’ll think of others— but it’s who you end up making the choice for that actually counts.

Freddy Krueger’s creation was a strange one.

Wes Craven’s horror icon, Freddy Krueger, was created based on an old tale heard from a group of Cambodian refugees. Apparently, they collectively refused to sleep due to haunting and terrifying nightmares. When they finally gave into sleep, it was said that they sadly died.
