You like my chemical romance?
Their early work was a little too post hardcore for my tastes, but when Revenge came out in '04, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate emoism that really gives the songs a big boost. They’ve been compared to the used, but I think Gerard has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.
In '06, they released this, The Black Parade, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Famous Last Words", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about determination and perseverance after death, it's also a personal statement about the band itself!

I miss you Lorna… this is such a mess
This is an old message and I had several other similar messages, but I miss you guys and hope you’re all doing well!! I’m sorry to see nothing has improved.
I saw I was kindly mentioned by @awesomefringey and some other commenters the other day, so just wanted to log in and say hello and log back out for a few more months. 💕
Sending so so much love to all of you. Take care of yourselves and each other, please.
The video is still on YT.

i say this 100% unironically and as someone who very recently watched rtd1 era twice over; if you think the writing quality of the 60th specials is any worse than the episodes from rtd1 era you either a) need to rewatch all of rtd1 (yes all of it, not just cherry-picked clips), b) are unable to recognize you have outgrown the show and lost your sense of whimsy, or c) are a conservative offended that the progressive sci-fi show is progressive and looking for any reason to hate it. or some combination of these 3 things

Negative traits for my girl MARLENE MCKINNON bc I love her (suddenly I'm a broom):
is super controlling but hates being controlled
laughs about everything, even if it at an inappropriate time
never really got out of her "I'm not like other girls" phase
is super disrespectful (especially towards adults)
puts her gum underneath tables

fun fact, the reason zoetrope's face situation is what it is, is because when first designing him -checks notes- over a decade ago, jeepers, i literally was just going "i wanna Invert the usual psychic triclops set up" and that was all it was at the time.
serendipity is cool or whatever
10 years ago vs now
they glow up so fast

reread tsh because I’m graduating & wanted, I suppose, to be nostalgic?? anyway I was just as bored by it this time round. I’ve never understood the appeal of this book. it’s too long for how little it says. and even on a purely aesthetic basis, it does not deserve to be the seminal text of the dark academia genre. did people really have to read this book to discover, what? that you can quote literature in casual conversation? write your journal in a different language? wear tweed? I hate New England.
