Do as many or as few of these as you want!
Band/Artist: Hippo Campus
Song: Simulation Swarm by Big Thief
Album: Ed Buys Houses by Sidney Gish
hey this is ira 4-5 days in the future this is going under a read more you'll see why thanks so much love you
Hippo Campus
Do I know them already?: yes :) and i am so normal about them come closer | no
If I know them:
Favourite Song: Usually Chapstick, Formerly Bambi, Currently Listerine ; okay i've been working on this ask for a few days because busy. i also really like ease up kid an abnormal amount.
Least Favourite Song: uhhh. not necessarily "least favourite" as much as "have listened to it less than 10 times" - baby
Favourite Album: i think landmark is just always going to be a part of my life forever and ever to be honest with you. it's the album that got me into hippo campus and the summer a few years ago now that it was the only album i listened to for 3 months was the lowest place i've ever been in and i think this music + walking aimless and flat broke in a city i had literally run away to on a manic whim for hours because i worked all the time but never made enough money to do anything there + listening to landmark on total flat out loop until i heard the music even when i wasn't listening to anything - is something i don't think i will ever be able to forget. those 3 months were...not ideal? but this one album has attached to it every single small shred of a good thing, a good feeling, a good meal, relief from sitting down after a 12 hour restaurant shift, sunset in the best autumn weather i've ever experienced, riding a bus that wasn't for school for the first time, my first taste of a real, actual city life, boardwalk wandering, the laughter however rare and even the month i spent in the hospital; which, mind you, was easily the best month of the whole three of them. really good album. lp3 is really bomb too :)
Least Favourite Album: mmm. demos I ? but not. all the songs on it i just vibe better with the mesh of how demos II is set up...
Song that got me into them: it has quite literally been. years and years but i think it was halocline, waaay. way back in 2015 on my not-boyfriend's 8tracks. then i forgot about the band when i stopped talking to my not-boyfriend. then found them again a few years later with bambi, which still is very very very dear to me and very important
Seen Live?:
Not. Yet. Soon.
Rate: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 100 this is literally my favorite band almost 10 years running babey #hippocampussweep
Song: Simulation Swarm by Big Thief
couldn’t finish it | not my thing | it’s fine | I could get into this | ooo I like | oh hell yeah | fuck this is some good shit | there aren’t even words, this transcends words
Oh my g-d the lyrics are so fucking good. yeahyeahyeahyeah yes sing to me about the crooked corpses the empty horses yes yes the river of light yes yesyesyesyes i love when words are so good oh my G-D they say simulation swarm just now. yes. yes. yay. holy shit. i already really loved a few Big Thief songs going into this so i am of course not disappointed; i really love this. you should listen to bloodlust by aeseaes.
Album: Ed Buys Houses by Sidney Gish
wait holy shit i just looked it up i know this album. i did not recognize the artist name or album name at all. what do you want from me tonight is one of my fav songs that i point at and say look its me. hell yes
Opinion on cover design: it's so good it looks like the inside of my brain :]
Favourite song: what do you want from me tonight (before listening to full album) | ...Other than WDYWFMT (bc h. yes) probably either hexagons and other fun materials Or presumably dead arm. :) i also really like homecoming serf for sureeee!!
Least favourite song: midnight jingle sorry or not sorry depending on how you feel abt it
Underrated track: i do not follow a lot of ppl who talk abt gish. but probably buckets of fun
Overrated track: i do not follow a lot of ppl who talk abt gish. pbb wdywfmt because thats the one that came up on my discover weekly like 2 years ago when i foudn that song and proceeded to not listen to any of the rest of it until just now so thank you
Rate: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9.5 | 10
Song opinions:
!Ed Buys Houses! -- Cute and poppy absolutely zoned out during it though because I was so floored at the realization that i knew this album and haven't recognized it this almost whole week
Midnight Jingle -- Unfortunately i am extremely nitpicky about speaking voices in my songs and the niche where voices are good in a song and where i start getting bored / annoyed is thin and veneered in judgement. the actual song is good i just almost skipped it entirely because of the phone convo at the beginning
Buckets of Fun -- YES YES YES STATIC DISTORTION IN SONGS <333 YES BABE RUUUUIN THE LEVELS ON YOUR AUDIO FILES!!!!! YES !!!!!!!!!!!!
Homecoming Serf -- oh good the melancholy. hm this is less about the Song and more about the Experience thus far (oh hell yes jesus of suburbia reference <3) but i really love how the songs so far haven't been super jarring to the pace of listening to it straight through, midnight jingle is almost in my mind retroactively justified because i can't imagine the disappointment i'd feel about another I CAN EASILY ACT GAYER THAN FUCK HATE. i love you gish. thanks. i'd feel about another phone call dragging on for a minute before there's any Song. so if it has to exist it does make sense to be a "first song" after the "theme" song that !EBH! is serving as a role. this song though goes so fucking hard i relate so hard <3 i love the atmosphere. it's not a sad song? it's a song that's lowkey and expressionistic--okay, sorry to be...a theatre person but in this song specficially sidney sounds like veronica sawyer from o'keefe's running ?? i think ??
Vaudeville -- aw hey apparently i have vaudeville relatives on my mom's side that's fun. this song does sort of slow down but again the pace is very intentional / consistent still. almost like a heart beat! i don't know how to word it but there's some kind of specific Thing that gish is doing with the music overall that is very funky and i enjoy it very much. the words and phrases and curses placed so Casually throughout the music is very harsh in a very good way. like a scrape at a waterpark. or rope burn on a tire swing.
Friday Night Placebo -- i've been eyeing the title of this song this whole time... it definitely is starting to slow down, but again it's like the entire album is on a curve. okay it ramps up and then down. i also feel like it's possible the album is weaving a specific story but i can't read the lyrics while i type this so i struggle to hear all the words (#hohW) but i do love just this feeling. very hazy? is that the word? i'm trying to find this word that encompasses this feeling. it's not hazy, it's not juvenile. what is the word! sorry i kept getting called by a telemarketer during this song but tbh that added i think to the intended emotion overall. maybe. it feels very ... not rugged. what is the word. oh the song's over--
Hexagons and Other Fun Materials -- funky groovy ass bass line. hell yes. also i love shapes please explain math and shapes to me. oh no i relate to this song already oh g-d oh fuck fuck oh no. fuck. well. what a fun little story about wanting to find something to excel in so that you will seem in some way meshed with those around you, but you are not able to force yourself into it. okay. there's voices in this one but i relate so deeply to the song itself in a way that is a little shocking for some reason that actually i don't even care. i might even Like those voices being there. oh my g-d i need to call my therapist. sorry. hesus christ.
Cokesbury -- back down to the dampened tone... you know those hoodies? with the - like - wool, i think, or maybe hemp...? thick knit and super super rough textured, with the slow diamond patterns. you can get them in stoner shops a lot i think. that's what this sounds like. it smells like incense and a super dark, barely lit, cramped souveneir shop in a college town (not a college city. college Town.) there's like one employee who leans against the cashier counter and ignores you as long as they possibly can (as they should). this album is probably the type of music that would play on those shitty little sony speakers hung up way too far apart in each corner of the store and played at too low a volume to actual build into a song you can hear properly. it's great.
It's Afternoon, I'm Feeling Sick -- this album came out in 2016 which is when-ish i moved across the country to live with my dad i hadn't spoken to in 5+ years out of nowhere and i know this is not true this is a joke here but also i do think if you put this album to a wordless biopic of the last 2 years of high school and first 2 years of my dad having custody of me you would think it had been written for that biopic specifically. good song!
Presumably Dead Arm -- yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes the intro. is nice. yes there's the words. oh i love this alreadyyyy. second to last song on the album yes babe i love it. honey you are nothing to me!!!! i am dying on the sofa and i'm . oh my G-D this one could be the ending of the biopic where i had run away from home and was insane for several years following. i want to have a coffee with gish gonna be honest with you i think we'd have some things to talk about. i love the "i want to go back, i want to know you when i didn't and i want to have what everyone i knew had" ... oh boy this song hits for me. i think this one's going on my "songs that look like me" playlist. btw i genuinely have no idea if any of this Says Anything about my mental state or whatever so like feel free to psychoanalyze me should you ever want to i love being perceived. 10/10 song. oh no we're almost done. i was just starting. where did the time go.
What Do You Want From Me Tonight? -- WELL I TOOK SOMEONES ADVICE WITH A ROLL OF EACH EYE!!!!! SHE TOLD ME TO SIT DOWN TWICE WAHT DO YOU WANT FROM ME TONGITH NOW IM STUCK LOSING MY MIND WHILE EVERYONE ELSE JUST THINKS THAT IM REALLY SHY WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME TONGIHT CUZ IM INVITED BUT IM TERRIFIED TOO AND ILL SIT HERE FOR A MILLION YEARS JUST STARING ACROSS THE ROOM BUT WHAT DO YOU WANT CUZ I WANT IT ALL AND ID REALLY RATHER STEP BACK BUT MY WALLS AGAINST THE WALL WHAT IF IM TOO NICE ITS A PUNCH IN THE FACE TO BE SO OVERPOLITE WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME TONGIHT MY VOICE IS TOO HIGH AND IT MATCHES MY HEAD AND I LOOK LIKE I WANNA DIE WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME TONGIHT?

trick or treat!!
Did you know that science discovered a new organ in 2016? Like a new organ within the HUMAN BODY. I mean this happens occasionally but the precedent is like, a lil gland we didn’t notice before or a newly-defined muscle group. not a GIANT MEMBRANE THAT STRETCHES ACROSS OUR ENTIRE BODY.
See scientists had calculated the Average Liquid in the human body, then the amount of liquid accounted for in cells and veins n everything else we know holds water, and still found that TWENTY PERCENT of our water mass was still unaccounted for. So they vaguely went “uhh it’s just extracellular fluid. let’s call it the interstitium” even though they didn’t really know Where or What that was.
Fast forward a few years (decades!!) and some guys are trying to find a new, more delicate way to analyse live tissue samples. I forget exactly what method they came up with, but they were looking at samples under a microscope and were like “Uh, what’s all this Stuff in the tissue? It kinda looks like a mucus membrane?” and they slowly realized they had found a new structure in the human body!!
See the interstitium is a membrane that runs through our body diffusing lymph. It’s so incredibly delicate that normal tissue preparation methods involving cutting and freeze-drying completely destroy it. so we just STRAIGHT UP DIDNT KNOW IT EXISTED. IT RUNS THROUGH OUR ENTIRE BODY AND IS LIKE. THE MAIN CIRCULATORY STRUCTURE FOR OUR LYMPHATIC SYSTEM AND WE DIDN’T KNOW IT WAS THERE UNTIL 2016!!! UNTIL RANDOM RESEARCHERS JUST FOUND THIS PHANTOM ORGAN. WHAT!!!!!
Even though the discovery is only a few years old it’s already fueling a lot of important research. By taking fluid samples from the interstitium scientists think they can test for leukemia months before other symptoms manifest. It’s also showing promising breakthroughs in research for dementia and other degenerative brain diseases.
But it’s so funny to read articles about it because they’re all just like “A NEW ORGAN WE FOUND A NEW HUMAN ORGAN”
#caps#l-cereta#trick-or-treat#jsyk my Fun Facts normally wont be this long I just. Need you to understand how wild the interstitium is

25, 30 for the identity ask?
Ahh! Thank you!
25) there is no way in hell I could ever live as a hermit. It sounds kinda sexy, living a secluded life with my pets and books, but I need people around me to be with, especially friends. My gay heart is too full of love.
30) fav quote?
My fun answer is Brad Leone from bon Appétit saying "wourder."
My serious answer is "
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep "
Because I'm trans and tryna live my best life. Those whose mourn my passing are not worthy of my love.

Hey! Really sorry to engage you in discourse but that other VE anon was, well, an anon, so I can't go directly to them. Anyways, VE did actually retcon the wendigo lusus out of the comic and some of the mods got, like, death threats from overzealous followers of a tumblr user (who didn't at all encourage those followers, just made some 'VE bad' posts) regardless idk what other anons deal was but it's not so black and white. Again sorry for trying to talk through you like this. Other anon hmu
well i dont think they were trying to make it a black and white issue, from my understanding of what they said, they were just trying to point out something bad that happened but isnt talked about very often. i don’t know if they still read the comic or not but it is possible to point out harmful things about something you like while still liking the thing. the message did not strike me as an attempt at condemnation of vast error or the people working on it, nor did it seem to be discourse because no one was really arguing about anything, but that is jsut my opinion i suppose....

this is about acting all high and mighty about how you're above parasocial relationships and mock people who are parasocial but then go on to obsessively follow actors/creators/etc in order to make fun of or criticize or get worked up over every single thing they do when they could literally just ignore them
if you think no one does this, i have bad news. i didn't blaze this post for no fucking reason lmfao
anyway yes of course it's ok to parasocially hate jeff bezos or dick cheney or elon musk or the koch brothers or donald trump or mitch mcconnell or jk rowling or whoever. it's not bad! in fact i encourage it
in fact the only way this becomes an issue is if you think parasocializing is unilaterally bad, but it really isn't. it's got upsides and downsides and it's definitely something you should practice in moderation, but it's aggravating to see people being hate-parasocial with actors also make fun of people who are love-parasocial with the exact same people to the exact same degree and then turn around and act like they're somehow better people for it
that's why i gave money to tumblr to put this on people's dashboards
this is about supernatural btw. what the hell goes on in the dream fandom or whatever it's called
