hi! your blog is one of my favourites and i absolutely adore reading your thoughts. my grandfather recently passed away and it feels like i lost myself with him. how do i continue living after this? there is this constant weight on my chest and it feels like an emptiness has made a home inside of me. how do i go on when it feels like the world crashed on my shoulders?
hello, love! this is so very sweet and kind of you, and i hope you're treating yourself gently and kindly right now - there aren't words for a loss like this. that heaviness is difficult, and hard, and painful. it's okay if things don't feel okay, right now, or even soon - i think that's something that a lot of the people i know that have gone through similar grief feel: like they should be able to get back to a relative 'normal' in a [insert far too short period of time].
but it's okay if it hurts. that's where i'd like to start. you're allowed to feel that emptiness, that world-crashed feeling that goes beyond words, beyond time. don't feel like you have to rush this to feel some sort of better. things get easier with time, i promise you this, but sometimes painful feelings are important to feel, too. cry, scream, feel your emotions. they're a part of you. grieve.
it's perhaps a little silly, but when i think about death i always think about a couple of space songs: mainly drops of jupiter by train and saturn by sleeping at last. there are perhaps others that speak to the emotions better, but these two have always hit something a little deeper for me, and are popular for a wide-reaching reason.
and while personally i don't know much about grief like this, i do know a lot about love; and i think they're a lot of the same thing.
the people we love are a part of us, and this is why it takes from us so deeply when we lose them, because it does feel like we've lost a part of ourselves in the wake of it. but it's because they were so central to our experiences of living - our lives, that the separation introduces a hollowness - a place where they used to be. a home that now goes unlived in.
an emptiness, like you said.
but just because they're not here physically, doesn't mean he's not still there, in your heart, in your life, your memory. you can hold him close in smaller ways, as well: steal a sweater, or cologne/scent for something a little more physical and long lasting for remembering. hold onto the memories you cherish, the things that made you laugh, the ease of slow mornings and gentle nights. write them all down, slide a few photographs in there, go through it and add more when you miss him. keep them all close, keep them in your heart.
you're not alone, in this. he's still there, with you, it's just - in the little things.
he's with you in the way you see and go about your daily life, in doing what he liked to do, in the ways he interacted with the world that you shared with him. the memories you recall fondly when the night is late or the moment is right and something calls it into you like a melody, an old bell, laughter you'd recognize anywhere.
but i think, perhaps most importantly above all others - talk about him. with your family, your friends, his friends, strangers; stories are how we keep the people we love alive. the connections they've made, the legacies and experiences they've left behind, and so, so many stories.
how lucky, we are - to love so much it takes a piece of us when they go. grief is the other side of the coin, but it does not mean our love goes away. it lives in you. it lives in everyone who knew him, in the smallest pieces of our lives.
the people we love never really leave us, like this: they're in how we cook and the way we fold our newspapers, our laundry, in the radio stations we tune in to and the way we decorate our walls, our photo albums. they're in the way we store our mail, organize our closets, the scribbled notes in the indexes of our books. the meals we love and the drinks we mix, the way we spend time with one another. they've been passed down for generations, for longer than history - and we are all the luckier for it.
think about what you shared with him, and do it intentionally. bring him into your life, like this, again. whether it's crosswords or poetry or sports or anything else. if one doesn't help, try another. something might click.
i hope things feel a little easier for you, as they tend to do only with time. i hope you find joy in your grief, even if it is small and hard to grasp at first. know that your hurt stems from so much love that there isn't a place to put it properly, and that it is something so meaningful and hurting poets and storytellers have been struggling to put it into words and sounds that feel like the fit right for eons, and that it is also just simply yours. sometimes things don't have to make sense. sometimes they just are - unable to be put into words or neat little sentiments, as unfair and tragic as they come.
but i promise it will not feel like this forever. your love is real. and perhaps, on where to begin on from here - i think it's less on finding where to begin and just beginning. and you've already started. you've taken the most important and crucial step: the first one.
wherever you go, after that, from here? you'll figure it out. you always have, and you always do. it'll come, as things always do. love leads us, as does light - and you're never alone in your hurt. in your grief, your missing something dear to you. i think if you talk about it with others, you'll find they have ways of helping you cope as well - and they have so much love of their own to spare, too.
as an aside, here is the song (northern star by dom fera) i was listening to when i wrote this, for no other reason more than it makes me think of connections, and love, and how we hold onto the people we love and how they change us, wonderfully and intrinsically. it's a little more joyous than the others i've mentioned, and plays like a story, and it made me think of what is at the core of this, love and stories and i am here with you, and maybe it'll bring you some joy, if you'd like it. wishing you all my love and ease 💛
#q&a.#birdsong.#wishing u gentle ease; the death of a loved one is near inexplicable to put into words and i hope you take care of yourself gently <3#i hope this will make u laugh: when i was a tiny child in middle school there were times i would go outside in my tiny suburban cul de sac-#in the rain and sing along to my lil ipod nano and i only remember doing this to drops of jupiter. can you imagine going out to get the mai#after a long day of work and you just hear this kid singing train in the streets. in the RAIN.... it makes me laugh like i really.#i really thought i was so cool and deep and emotional ghjkd but i find it v funny that i only remember it w/ that one train track.#and saturn just. it's my fav s.a.l. song for a reason. that slow violin opening? the piano coming in gentle and easy?#it feels like light. like hope. like something new - a dawn after the long dark. that beautiful things can begin again even where#it hurts. and there is nothing more human than a sentiment like that.#how rare and beautiful it is to truly exist. what it is to be alive and get to be here and live with other people. with those we love.#i think your grandfather was so lucky to be able to know you. to have you in his life for the time you had together.#i'm no spiritual person; but i like to believe when you're thinking about him? he's thinking about you too.#the second law of thermodynamics (physics nerd mode) is that no energy has ever been created/destroyed since the beginning of the universe.#so it has to go somewhere - it's that carl sagan quote of 'we're all made of stardust'. because we are. we used to be stars; planets; etc.#i think it's why i think of these space songs - because they're a part of everything; once more; when they go. us and everything else.

sorry. aventurine got me
it was the "chasing after your past self (who loves you and wants to encourage you and ease all your fears) through an amusement park while your future self (who hates you and spends every second disparaging and tormenting you) follows close behind" sequence. two seconds into that and i knew i was doomed
#DRAGGING MY HANDS DOWN MY FACE. UGHHHHHHHHHH#when baby kakavasha told current aventurine his eyes are pretty right after we were treated to that flashback of him telling jade that#he'd gouge them out and sell them if he could. fml#FML!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#they did a REALLY good job with this guy. it came together really beautifully 🥹#him going from carelessly seeking his own death to accepting all the broken fucked up pieces of himself and coming to peace with it all#and realizing that just because everything ends with death doesn't make this world a pointless one#we can't change our final outcomes#but we can make lots of choices on our way to that final sleep... and create a magnificent journey full of precious memories#and that's the point of it all.#ahhhhhhhhhhhh

Park Eunbin on how she approached the role of Woo Youngwoo and how the character's particularities came to be.
EXTRAORDINARY ATTORNEY WOO
#extraordinary attorney woo#park eunbin#park eun bin#kdramaladies#kdramadaily#kdramanetwork#kdramaedit#my edits#I thought it was cool how she approached things not in terms of imitation or caricature but in terms of making youngwoo her own person#and that she mentioned the work and the research done by the writer and the director#because she didn't create youngwoo they worked on it all together#and the work of the director and the writer are as essential as peb's to make sure that youngwoo feels realistic and stands out on screen#and that we root for her and relate or feel for her#a character is never just an actor#she approached this very scientifically in a way that's really cool and respectful#someone in the tag mentioned this interview or a similar one weeks ago but I just watched it#and thought since the show is picking up it'd be nice to share peb's approach#in the interview she also talks about youngwoo is a very physical role so I think it was even a better idea to build youngwoo from scratch#rather than try to imitate people#because it means it comes to her more naturally#and that she's better able to mix her imput with what's already in the script#mine: extraordinary attorney woo

ok but music is actually the most beautiful thing in every way i’m gonna turn into the sun. music and people and the world and oouyggghhhh
#guy who finally got round to watching the zelda orchestra concert uugghhhfghh#you don’t get it you don’t get it the fucking sheer what humanity??? joy???? love???? in being in a music ensemble like an orchestra#everyone is individuals but right now each person is music as one and we’re all music and the audience are crucial#because you too are the music and for at least one brief moment this is all we are. the sounds and the melody and the rhythms and the music#vvvbvhbbbbvbhbbbvv#cggghjbvvhjjbvb. AAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa#and the music has always been there abd the music will always be there as time continues to pass#there will always be music in any given moment#but the fact that we come together to specifically create and celebrate music is beautiful beyond understanding#and the truth is there’s music in everything ever because every living thing has some intrinsic level of rhythm and melody#the way you walk. the way the wind blows the sound of your voice the birds singing the sound the leaves make the rain on a shelter#it’s all music. it’s all song#anyway i’m gonna go explode or something gbjbvvghjffch music music i love you music#ezra likes music#<- nee fucking way

i really liked the ending of the buddy daddies anime, i think it fits the story and what annoys me now are people who are trashing this ending because of that line about kazuki meeting with a girl and that he's not gay for rei, well they were never said to be gay it's just a headcanon. not dating doesn't equal not caring about each other, romantic love is not a necessity and a qpr is not inferior to a romantic relationship. they were shown to be a real happy family in the end, that's what is important here
#buddy daddies#'he's cheating on rei. they don't love each other' how did you watch 12 episodes of the show and miss the point completely#literally accept the idea that love doesn't come from dating#adding more context because this post got out of my mutual circle lmao#it would be great if they started dating but the ending where they remain a qpr is ALSO nice#the show was first and foremost about a family and they did become one in the end! that's what matters the most#they're not your typical conventional family because the point was to show that they don't need to. and they can still be a real one#like there are many kinds of families and it's one like one is better than another#yes they didn't plan that but with time they formed bonds and created memories together and found happiness#and kazuki and rei didn't need to be a romantic couple for all of that yo be meaningful and for their bond to be special#they decided to resign from their jobs and completely change their lives for each other and for miri#so if someone says that all of this doesn't matter and they should've get married to be finally a real family then they're just wrong

lately ive been crying like a tall child. etc. if you even care
#um does anyone want to rant about the tams fire siblings because they are driving me genuinely crazy#the way azula - despite being grown and distanced enough from ozai to know it was wrong - still views her 9 year old self as her ‘peak’#while zuko views the age he was at when they left as his lowest point#and they’re both trying to get towards and away those respective identities#any reminder that azula isn’t the girl she was is met with discomfort from her#just as any situation that makes him feel unsettled/unsafe/belittled instantly puts zuko into his 11 y/o mindset#like so much has happened and diverted from canon yet here they still are#those children are still living and kicking within them despite all they’ve done to have ‘zuko’ and ‘azula’ erased#there’s just sooooo much to them but I really liked this from the latest chapter#bc this chapter was supposed to really show how all the little crumbs I’ve put into their characters so far#come together to create two surprisingly opposing mindsets#and this is a key factor of that and this treatment of their past becomes VERY prevalent#twice as many stars#oh on the topic of tams please if ur gonna listen to any song off the playlist pls let it be come by adrienne lenker#like I’m crying about it actually

it's funny when people are trying to put pete down by insulting his bass skills or whatever and they're like "he didn't even write fob's most iconic bassline!!!" (which I'm assuming is dance dance ig idk) and it's like. buddy, pal, friendofmine. sibling dearest. I'll do you one better: I can't name a bassline he has written.
great news! it doesn't matter. I'm not suggesting he's a good bassist either, because I've never really seen anything that really supports that idea. but he's not in the band to be the world's best bass player. it's a means to an end. he's a fantastic lyricist, he's a good frontman, and the three other members of fob wouldn't want to be in the band without him. I think that's all you could ever truly ask of him. nice try though
#fall out boy#fob#pete wentz#people have this assumption that bands and musical acts come together solely to be the best at their respective instrument or something#and that the art they create must be the pinnacle of success in a time period#but when you know that this band exists because two guys wanted a break from the rest of the scene#and they've stayed together for 20+ years because /they're just having fun/#it becomes clear that this isn't about being the epitome of greatness or whatever#BTW. DISCLAIMER.#this is ONLY about people trying to tear him down in General.#if you're comparing bassists and skill then like. oBvioUsLy him not being a great bassist matters#it just doesn't matter to me in the grand scheme of things#like. in any other capacity lol#like ik some mcr fans are annoyed that pete and mikey get compared a lot or something#and idk what mikey's skill level is at but I'm pretty sure he is better than pete just cause I've heard he's got that underdog story going#on w/ him not having played bass til mcr but coming soo far as a bassist#and I'm sure that that's frustrating so rip. but there's no reason to insist that pete is Super Skilled because dude that's not why hes her#it was never the point!! ashdhsgj#you don't need to be freakishly good at something to partake in it!#I also think it's weird how obsessed some people are with this#like. why do you wanna tear him down so badly huh? what's your deal#stfu#I didn't think I'd ever become a pete wentz defender tbh#but yknow. hdfshg

doing things outside of your usual is such a humbling experience...
#lizzy speaks#to those who are curious what prompted this: my friend and i are collaborating on a video essay together#we picked it back up a week and a half ago after it laid in limbo for a month or two#and we're currently in the phase of editing it together (scripting + recording the VO is done)#and MAN. my respect for people who work on scripted/informative content just shot up through the ROOF#most of my experience with editing comes from footage first and then edit down approach (rather than creating/gathering visuals to uplift-#a written script) and it's. well. they engage with very different skillsets i think#my friend who i am collaborating with is very amused at me because this is not her first rodeo. meanwhile me as a first-timer.#i am telling her about how i am losing my mind over my editing timeline having gaps of footage because i couldn't think of anything to put#for certain portions (or i just didnt feel like looking through preexisting footage on the internet and dl-ing it)#and she compared it to 'telling a kid whos going thru puberty that its normal' EKLHFGLHH#im ngl the way i have spent like maybe 10 hours today off and on looking up footage and fact checking the splat artbook is so. explodes#it makes sifting through an 11 hour batch of footage of me playing big run sound like a cakewalk in comparison LMAOO#anyway if you read this far thank you :D i hope that in 2024 i can continue to be humbled in trying new things#and i highly encourage others 2 do so too! try a new method of approaching something or do smthn slightly adjacent to what you do!#tis a good learning experience and also makes u very appreciative of the things that are out there methinks#im literally only editing an 11 minute segment or so idfk how people make those 1+ hr video essays LIKE HELLO??? ESP IF ITS LICENSED MEDIA#HOW DO U GET ALL THE FOOTAGE FOR THAT. U MUST BE REALLY HYPERFIXATED AND DEDICATED TO THAT. DAMN. anyway. have a good 2023 everyone!

I think I remember Steve Orlando (current Scarlet Witch writer) saying that Tommy has a good relationship with Wanda? And I'm iffy on Leah Williams' take on the Maximoffs but they seemed close there. Like I genuinely think a large part of the problem is simply that writers forget he exists/ would rather do Billy-Wanda parallels. He moved back into & lovingly restored the house Wanda raised him and Billy in. I'm sick over it
Marvel definitely picks favorites when it comes to their Speedster/Magic twins and the Speedsters get the short stick. I'm sure Wanda loves her kids but I'd like to SEE IT for once. I don't think have to be much either, a photo in the background with Tommy, her mentioning him at all, any acknowledgment that he exists in her world. I'm just sick of Marvel ignoring my boy!
#and its not like they can play the rep card like `Billy is Queer rep so we want to use him more` because Tommy is Bi and has a BF#tommy shepherd#billy kaplan#wanda maximoff#speed#wiccan#the scarlet witch#tommy maximoff#billy maximoff#comics#marvel comics#blorbo#like come on marvel can we have more tommy? hes important too! you could do so much with him#like i fully believe he should be more powerful! hes the son of the Scarlet Witch. and imagine Billy controls space then Tommy could control#time. idk something about how space-time is how we try and figure our the universe and Wanda messed with the universe to create them so#maybe they reflect that by controlling space and time together? idk im not Einstein (ha ha literally this is his bs) its something like that#tommy shepard#its one of those spellings. i think its -phard not -pard but ill put both

Watching Andor and rewatching Rogue One for the first time in awhile had rebelcaptain soaring above all my other Star Wars ships in terms of personal rank. In my heart, no other Star Wars ship can compare to Jyn & Cassian. They never even kissed or "were together" but the connection they had was so strong. The way they gravitated toward each other and the way their expressions showed everything they felt about the other is enough for me to make them number one.
#rebelcaptain#I used to be all about anidala but I've kinda drifted from them#anakin & padmé I now enjoy more for the art I can create for them#like they're so tragic and that generates a lot of art ideas#but when it comes to a relationship that I could have seen flourishing it's 100% rebelcaptain#their chemistry was out of this world#anakin & padmé have numerous reasons for why they were doomed and a lot of them are personal flaws and lack of communication#but jyn and cassian seemed to overall have a good understanding of the other#yes their were times they didn't fully understand the other (see post eadu ship scene) but at the end I think they did#and they literally worked so well together as a team#did I mention their chemistry#because wow those looks exchanged right before they leave for scariff#I also think a lot of it comes down to their acting and the writing too#and again with the andor show we get a deeper dive into cassian's character and see parallels with jyn#they make me so emo#this ended up being way more tags than I intended#there's still other great ships too like kanera but rebelcaptain is just a personal fav#star wars

hux lives rent free in my head but he pays rent anyway because he's so fucking annoying.
#˚ ⁀ out of character -------------- 𝚒.#( coming back to tumblr with a character you've written on discord for years is wild )#( because wtf do you mean that you don't know he's vegan and got shot in the chest one time for not giving a homeless person a 5 dollar bill#( like how do you not know that he did track in school and also has a verse where he's a surgeon and also and addict like? )#( the world creating on discord meets tumblr and i get all fucking stuck trying to remember how to bring them together again )#( the vegan thing is true and that's because Delilah Dawson agreed with me and she's the only validation I will ever need )#( im rereading empires end and phasma and the lot to get back into the spirit )

not going to lie, i thought the first few episodes were dumb as hell--it felt very much like a poor attempt at something succession-esque with whatever wildly decontextualized poe references they could find the slightest justifications for unconvincingly stapled over the top. now on episode 6 the show's grown on me a bit, maybe because i've stopped trying to care about the overarching story and just started taking each episode as an entry in an extremely kitschy horror Lite™ anthology series? and tbh even calling it horror Lite™ is being generous, because a lot of the usual flanaganverse scare tactics just aren't effective anymore this many series later
#the fall of the house of usher spoilers#there are little interesting bits here and there#auguste and roderick's complicated history#juno and tamerlane's moment of understanding#t'nia miller's performance in general#otherwise it's still kind of a hot mess of a show#though i think one that gets its shit together better towards the end#if nothing else flanagan must create a good working environment because he keeps getting these really fucken good actors to come back
