Will you be bringing back any of the more morally grey aspects of Raven Darkholme as a character? For the past... I don't even remember how long it has been, she's been pretty mustache twirlingly evil. Is there a chance we'll get to see some of the overprotective-slightly-creepy-mom? I've always loved her when she has a heart.

You’ll definitely be seeing more of the morally grey areas... and sometimes you’ll see those evil aspects, too... Interesting times ahead.

So I'm quite baffled with this week's Uber. Why would the British not export their research to a commonwealth state like, I dunno Canada, instead of burning it all?

I think one doesn’t exclude the other. Passing information to allies is one thing. Making sure the Germans don’t get them is another. We’ll be digging into this stuff in Vol 2.

Bruh, nothing about you looks 12, least in my eyes. Maybe that's growing up in Hawaii? Real talk though.

i like to tell myself that i look twelve, because at least that would explain why no boys hit on me. like they don't want to get put in jail or some shit.

it erases the thing where i am not pretty enough to get hit on.

I WARNED YOU ABOUT DRINKING ON THE DOWNSWING BRO, I WARNED YOU

if approximately 2/3 of my time is spent in the downswing, then i might as well just party the spiral wherever it goes. i'd rather vodka than think on any given day.

I feel the tattoo post is a failed inversion. camo!=tattoos as multiple groups use large amount of body modification, where the unironic use of forest camo as casual day dress is not something I have ever experienced to be widespread amongst dozens of subcultures?

Perhaps, but as the post was talking about “white people in camo” originally and specifically aimed at those in the US, I thought it a reasonable enough inversion to make another sweeping assumption. After all, camo is worn by people in/associated with the military, or those who hunt, as well as being worn by people in different countries just as a casual thing.

Overall it was quite a muddled post, though: I tried to tap into the “taking photographs of people without their consent and then making judgements about their appearance” double standard that tumblr seems to have at times.

It's fine if it sounds wrong, it's still the best thing for you, for your art, and it produces more beauty than you can see. Art is like a mirror, the you that you see in it is distorted by your perceptions, only other people have actually seen your face.

nO IT IS NOT. everything has to fit. the biggest question for everything is why. i'm not so meticulous as to question my every move when i write a piece, but at the same time, i do have to question why i make the conscious choices that i do. why does one word sound better than another? why does what i'm feeling come out better with this analogy over another? does the music reflect the words--and if it doesn't, does that choice give another feeling altogether.

if it isn't beautiful to me, then what does it matter? writing for other people made me feel like a sell out. so i write for my own satisfaction and to my own satisfaction. if the aesthetic pleases someone else, then it's fine.

and at the same time. like. i've been playing music for as long as i've been able to read. in some ways, i'm a lot more effective in communication with music than i am with english, simply because a lot of it is instinctive. if the mona lisa is a thousand words, then a III7-IV-iv-I progression is worth at least half that.

i'm frustrated because i don't even know what i want to convey. i'm happy on one end and trapped on the other--liberated from one thing, but it still feels like there are weights on my feet. i have so many feelings, and i'm not quite sure how to musically express all eighteen of them in the span of four minutes. it's just frustrating, and i need more time to break the feelings down.

and even then, i'm not sure i want to. some stuff is better left alone, and i'm not trying to spiral down into an art-swing. i could afford to do that when i was dating someone across the continent. i'm not going to have jimmy be reduced to a centerpiece. like he's already six-foot forever, i'm not going to put him on a fucking pedestal too.

Artwench is pro-life, pro-police, pro-lethal response, and anti-feminist so like... It's not hard to understand the response?

Yeah I checked out their blog and it's pretty gross so I just blocked them and went on with my day. I don't have time to waste on trash like that.
