Rating the Accuracy of Animal Names:

(I keep updating this list so check back later)

Marine Iguana: 1/10. They don’t allow lizards in the military

Honey Badger: 1/10. It’s not even made out of honey

Horny toad: 0/10. First of all, this is a lizard. Second of all, I couldn’t find one that was willing to have sex with me so they must not actually be all that horny

Crabeater seal: 1/10. They don’t even eat crabs. Felt uncomfortable asking about the other kind but I’d guess probably not those either

Comb jellyfish: 4/10. Doesn’t even have hair

Hammerhead shark: 10/10. Stop killing hammerhead sharks to make hammers

Paper nautilus: 1/10. Paper would get too soggy

Red Panda: 2/10. Not a panda. More orange than red

Jellyfish: 0/10. Not even a fish, but if it were, jelly would be one of the worst things to be made out of

Electric eel: 5/10. Not an eel. Shocking, I know

Blue footed booby: 2/10. My disappointment is immeasurable. Turns out this lying sack of shit is a just a stupid BIRD

Spiny lumpsucker: 8/10. Apparently this fish is named because it has spines AND a suction cup, not because it sucks on spiny lumps

Pleasing fungus beetle: 2/10. Why would fungus be pleased by a beetle eating it? It just worked so hard to grow

Chicken turtle: 1/10. This is just a regular turtle, there are no chickens involved

Red lipped batfish: 8/10. Not a bat. Does have red lips. Also looks incredibly sexy with that makeup on

Aye aye: 10/10. Does in fact, have two eyes

Blobfish: 10/10 out of water, 1/10 in water. The blobfish gets a bad rap, it only looks like a blob because some dickhead pulled it out of its natural habitat at the bottom of the fucking ocean. You’d look pretty weird if you switched places with them too

Dik dik: 5/10 if male, 0/10 if female. This one’s pretty self explanatory

Mountain chicken: 0/10. THIS IS A FUCKING FROG. STOP NAMING ANIMALS AFTER CHICKENS!

Peacock: 0/10. It pees out of a cloaca, not a cock. Technically it doesn’t even pee either

Monarch butterfly 1/10. They aren’t even one of the species of insects that has a queen, let alone understands the concept of monarchism

Cockatiel: 0/10. They do not have teal cocks

Monkey slug caterpillars: 1/10. These are neither slugs nor monkeys, nor are they some kind of fucked up monkey/slug hybrid. Terrible name all around, the only part they got right was caterpillar

Robin: 5/10. It’s a shame this bird has to resort to thievery but we all have to put worms on the table somehow

Alligator snapping turtle: 1/10. This is not an alligator, nor does it even have the fingers to snap with

Ground squirrel: 5/10. Please don’t grind squirrels

Axolotl: 0/10. Doesn’t ask a lot. Doesn’t ask anything at all

Sea robin: 7/10 This is what happens when the land robin goes pro. This creepy fuck evolved little fingers just to steal things. Is this where fish fingers come from?

Tasmanian devil: 8/10. Much like the christian devil, cool name and way more chill than most people give them credit for. Statistically speaking, they’re far from the deadliest player on the board, but they do have the strongest bite force and won’t hesitate to use it if provoked

Water deer: 7/10. No. This is a meat deer

Star nosed mole: 7/10. Name is somewhat misleading, nose merely star shaped, and not a mass of incandescent gas, a gigantic nuclear furnace

Paddlefish: 3/10. Too narrow to effectively be used as a paddle

Shoebill stork: 1/10. Not made of real shoes. Doesn’t pay bills either

Great white shark: 8/10. I’m inclined to agree for the most part but who came up with the name, David Duke?

Bioko drill: 0/10. At least the hammerhead shark looks like a hammer, this stupid monkey doesn’t even remotely resemble a drill

Hippo Tang: 0/10. That’s a fish, and hippos don’t even drink Tang

Bluejay: 3/10. Not actually blue, it’s just a trick of the light. I bet their real name probably isn’t even Jay either

Satanic Nightjar: 4/10. Should be called “slightly evil looking bird” instead

Tarantula hawk wasp: 1/10. Not a tarantula. Not a hawk. Starting to question if it’s even a wasp

Goblin shark: 10/10? Ever seen their jaw move? They sure are gobblin’

Nudibranch: 5/10. The nude part is accurate but it’s a sea slug, not a tree branch. Not even sure how you could possibly make that mistake

Mongoose: 0/10. No mon, it’s not a goose

Bison: 7/10. I just googled it, bison have more gay sex than straight sex so calling them bi is actually pretty accurate. Points removed because there are bidaughters too

Ram: 10/10. They sure do!

Mandrill: 2/10. They could probably be taught to use drills but I couldn’t find any research on this

Silver fox: 1/10. Silver is way too heavy of an element for an animal to be made of

Mayfly: 9/10 Yeah, they might

Fin whale: 10/10. Yep, whales have fins. Glad we cleared that up

Macaroni penguin: 1/10. They don’t eat macaroni

Horseshoe crab: 0/10. Not a crab. Doesn’t wear horseshoes either

Fangtooth: 10/10. Objectively I have to give it a 10 but this is the stupidest fucking name on the whole list. What’s next, knucklefist? Titboob?

Milkfish 1/10. If I go to your house and you offer me fish milk I’m fucking leaving

Little penguin: 10/10. Telling it exactly like it is

Spider monkey: 1/10. Was expecting a monkey with 8 limbs. Let down once again

Glass frog: 2/10. Not actually made out of glass

Hummingbird: 1/10. They can’t even hum

Centipede: 3-35.4/10. Depends on the species, very few actually have 100 legs

Millipede: 0.8-8/10. They have 800 legs at the most

Sockeye salmon: 1/10. Socks would make terrible eyes

Furry lobster: 10/10, 11/10 if that’s a fursuit

Flying fish: 4/10. Merely glides

Sailfish: 3/10. Doesn’t actually know how to sail

Blanket octopus: 2/10. Octopuses make terrible blankets

Cane Toad: 2/10. Can walk just fine without a cane

moots as songs

The musical wizard in me is becoming too powerful now HEHEHE

@heeliopheelia - Mind over Matter by Young the Giant. It has such a nice chill vibe, and yet it's so chaotically powerful just like Carly

@astraystayyh - love by Wave to Earth. I completely associate this song with Sahar, because it's just as pretty as her.

@jaylaxies - Masakali from Delhi 6. IDK ARIA THIS SONG IS JUST YOU FOR SOME REASON

@junnieverse - Balance game by TXT. It's so chill, like so calm, and yet never fails to make me think "Time for some sexy shit" much like my combos with Mars

@sjyluv - Pretty boy by The Neighborhood. Alright Mia actually reminds me a lot of this song, mainly the chords of it just give such Mia vibes

@lovestay-channie - From the Start by Laufey. RAE IM SORRY ITS SUCH A SAD SONG-

@chlorinecake - Chamber of Reflection by Mac de Marco. Anyone who listens to it WILL be reminded of my jagiya Chloe

@angel1kisses - MmmH by Kai. It's so smexy like Vampie like YAAS THATS MY HAWT QUEEN

@candewlsy - Bam Yang Gang by BIBI. For obvious reasons, this cute little person needs a cute little song

@haecien - Andromeda by Weyes Blood. It's such an EARGASM song much like Harua's mind (when I drool over her fics)

@amazzwon - Arabella by Arctic monkeys. She's always be my Arabella, my lady in silver swimsuit

@jaeyunluvr - Hollywood Movie Star by Nerd Connection. FOR OBVIOUS REASONS ONCE AGAIN

@minhypenalt - My Love Mine all Mine by Mitski. Selene is just such a beauty like this song.

@666booklover - Thangamey by Anirudh. JASMINE IS LITERALLY THE INCARNATION OF THIS SONG YALL CAN FIGHT ME-

@heeslut4life - Back to Black by Amy Winehouse. Aeri just has this chaotic sexy vibe that I adore so much, like this song!!

@deluluriddhi - Washing Machine Heart by Mitski. I feel like Riddhi is a very complex person, but all that's hidden, much like this song

@14raeriluv - Cry Baby by The Neighborhood. Don't ask me why IT JUST IS

jesse is a big fan of ariana grande’s music!

salvia palth when feeling emo

michael jackson!!!!

radiohead!! eyedress!!

kinda fw raye

uhhhh this is awkward bc i usually like to think that fem jesse and masc jesse are exactly the same person minus gender (unpopular opinion alert) but i hate myself rn for thinking their music taste may have extremely slightly different vibes ummmm wtf

GODDDD JESSE WOULD BE ALLLL TFFF OVER KESHA. OH MY GODD jesse would love keshas music so much. one of their top artists!!! ESPECIALLY FEM JESSE

tv girl question mark?????

paramore.

steve lacy???

disclaimer i don’t like how i’m expressing my opinions cause i feel like this makes jesse look basic when i actually think jesses music taste is more cool than i’m able to write/portray it

♡ ❨ lukas ❩

i want to say that lukas listens to the same kind of music + artists + genres, however.. i can see him listening to a LOT. god he would love music.

old music is 100% one of his top genres. jazz, classical, etc. billie holiday, louis armstrong, mozart, nina simone, frank sinatra, al bowlly, ella fitzgerald.. i’m trying to get into both genres so i don’t know many but, hed def be super educated on old musicians like them, and know a LOT of them. he’d be so into them. i can’t sweat it enough how much he’d love these kinds of songs/music.

he would also be a listener of clairo, laufey, mac demarco, ethel cain, steve lacy, mitski, men i trust, her’s, strawberry guy, phoebe bridgers, alex g, suki waterhouse, etc.

ALSO HE LISTENS TO LANA!!

HE LOOOOVES CIGS AFTER SEX!!! LOVES!!!!

gave fboy music a try once and fell down a rabbit hole. he’s a little embarrassed of this so he doesn’t really share that he likes this kind of music ndbshudjfn.. he doesn’t want people to view him differently if he reveals he reveals he listens to that music. he knows they probably won’t but he still doesn’t want people to know 😭

a side of him also likes rap like tyler the creator, uzi, carti, travis scott n allat. not one of his top genres but he does really enjoy this music

along with his older music, he also listens to music like elvis presley when he’s feeling a little funky. or just music from the 70’s/80’s/90’s. nirvana, queen, michael jackson, jeff buckley, the beatles, bon jovi, tears for fears, abba, etc etc

he vibes w a few pierce the veil songs. #emo

had a cavetown phase

occasionally listens to radiohead

often listens to kendrick lamar, frank ocean, childish gambino, etc etc. loves that type of music.

^^^ ugh he’d love kendrick

he listens to the neighbourhood a lot alsooo and he enjoys their music

little bit of arctic monkeys but not too interested tbh

bye he’d love mazzy star oh my god don’t talk to me

tv girl(?)

eyedress

salvia palth when he’s feeling extra depressed for whatever reason

deftones(????) big question mark

SO YEAH. but he usually just tells people he likes jazz, classical, indie and 80’s. his music taste is very very diverse and he‘s vv satisfied w it.

phoebe bridgers?

sir chloe fucking ENORMOUS question mark

kesha???…????

ethel cain???

MAYBE hole.

CAN U TELL IM NOT SURE

i want to say she’d listen to lana but i don’t think she would too often…</3. only occasionally when she’s feeling a little coquette 🎀

axel lightly introduces her to his music taste and she likes some of it like flyleaf & deftones n stuff but she doesn’t fw the rlly loud songs too much at all. she doesn’t like when it’s too loud/overwhelming

okay so besides that she also listens to this genre of female singers that is like loud grungy gut wrenchingly depressing music yk???? GUYS I CANT NAME ANYONE AND ITS AN ODDLY NICHE SPECIFIC GENRE OH MY GODD THIS IS SUCH A CURSE BECAUSE ITS LITERALLY HER VIBE AND SHE WOULD LOVE THIS MUSIC BUT I CANT NAME IT OTHER THAN DESCRIBING IT AS GUT WRENCHING GRUNGY FEMALE SINGERS

SHE LIKES VIOLENT VIRA..?? RIGHt???

listen to strangers by ethel cain. “am i making you feel siiickk” THAT PART IS SO PETRA.

okay but when she’s feeling a bit emotional or a bit cute she might listen to a bit of mazzy star. but she’d never tell anyone

tv girl…? idk maybe not but maybe IDK

okay to sum it up i think her main artists would be paramore, evanescence, avril lavigne, nirvana, the runaways, lil peep, flyleaf, billie eilish, ethel cain, kesha, phoebe bridgers, the cranberries okayyy this is awkward i just named everyone i listed above this isn’t a summary i’m so embarrassing

EXTREMELY privately fw justin bieber. god he’d hardcore bully lukas for it but behind close doors… he’s such a sucker for jb

classic rap like yeat, a$ap, 50 cent, tupac, carti, uzi, eminem, kanye, etc. he listens to them often but prefers louder songs with heavy instruments. he prefers older rap like 90’s-2000’s vibe rap, he doesn’t fw 2020’s rap too much but he’d still listen to it quite a bit.

never catch him listening to ayesha erotica or u won’t leave well enough to remember LMAOOO he enjoys a bit of a bimbo anthem every now and then but if anyone ever found out i think he’d go into cardiac arrest

is more into 80’s music than axel but in a different way, he likes the less upbeat happy songs and more grungey shit

DEFTONESSS

ac/dc

david bowie

mac demarco???

LIL PEEP LIL PEEP

lana del rey. he’s a little proud of it even tho her music is drastically different (eh) from his normal music taste

uzi

nirvana

slipknot, nirvana, ac/dc, nine inch nails, pierce the veil, deftones, metallica, green day and every rock artist axel listens to oh my goddd they’d bond over music so much guys

when he’s feeling fond or loving or any tender of vulnerable emotion he leans towards older jazz as well but it is not often at all. on OCCASION. heavy on not often. that’s his softer side. and when he does listen, it’s always a quieter song focused on the vocals

(shhh he will never admit his random soft spot for clairo!!!)

੭ guys plz send me requests on things to post for mcsm!! this post is such a mess. ew.

Sketch a day 6

Yeah I skipped a whole bunch of days, life is life BEHOLD!!!!

LIZARS!

I designed only few for now, there is more to come (with 13 in total *dies*) But yeah I tried my best and I put a lot of thought into them!

more rambelings about designs and a bit of lore and what character they are under the cut:

---------------------------------

General facts about lizards:

All lizards have tails and antenna (some squshy some not so much)

they are incredibly proud. Just in general and have a big pride in them being strong and dangerous and beiing predators. That's why every single lizard have a danger symbol somwehe on them, will it be neclase, shirt patch, button... and so on.

but even with that they try to have good relationship with other hybrids, after all they all work together for better future of all of them

fuck the pronouns, there is only one pronoun in their language, any pronouns in other languages will be ok

actuall lizards do exist in this universe as well they are just wild animals that are like monkeys to us, and are wel... like crocodiles?? you know

And the ones you see here are just specific characters (even tho they don't have proper names). There are multiple pink, red, cyan, yellow and so on lizards, same as I'm sure there are multiple white, red, blue and other colored slugcats.

Pink one looks like most average character we all made once. it's literally hoodie jeans and sneakers, there in nowhere more avarege to go, pink one really goes Just A Guy™ and that's the whole point. Been doing football since 10 not because they are any good at it. Collage student

Blue one is a bit more interecting, you know it's like when you redesign your first character, and you want to keep the simplisicy but also more detailes and less flat. Two blue 'fins' go al along the spine. Also play foorball with pink but they are actually better at it than pink. Same collage with pink

Red is slay. That-s it. They are the King and the Queen and all above and hot and sexy because I said so. Very tall btw, they are like 2m tall, could kill you with their tail and will not apologize and also wears heels, because being 2m tall isn't enough. Sassy bitch. I love them. Also they have red thingies on the back same as on the tail (that's why their back is open, but cover it with a cloak)

Green is a chill guy, but hits like a truck, so do not anger them (whick is more than possible, it's not like they are an ocean of patience). Also can kill you with a tail and not notice. Also I have not decided fully but probably some kind of armycore or something military is def about them. necklase is made out of bronze

Strawbery is my fanourite cat boy of this groop! They are like actual cat boy!!! Their ears are same shape and same softness as the ears of slugcats, so yeah! certified cat! Cutie doll that will puch you in a face, you know what, from now on they are streamer or something like that, becasue I can. With pink gaming set up, yes.

watching one piece film gold for the first time and felt the need to rate their outfits bc Baccarat is right and should just burn these mostly horrific clothing choices.

Luffy (3/10) - My boys got the DOGS out no sandals this time just raw feet to the nasty ass casino floor. and why he got an axe? thank god he’s rubber or he would slice his shit off with that stupid thing. at least we get luffy abs only thing saving this from 2/10.

Zoro (10/10) - mans looks smashing as always I love a man in uniform. He can cut me up any day. Feral for the hat. love seeing his toes (i don't have a foot fetish i promise)

Franky (4/10) - we don’t need to talk about Frankie’s fit he’s high af all the time this is just norm no surprise stoner life. maybe he just cosplaying kuma or something

Nami (9/10)- does she need to be in a full bikini? absolutley not. do i slurp every frame up? yes. her tit says it best: sexy

Robin (9/10)- my tall queen legs as long as the sea is deep. she never misses.

the next 4 are hate crimes and i am not standing for this.

Sanji (2/10) - Sanji literally looks like your gay uncle at the bbq who really handles those sausages well. And he’s wearing CROCS. this is tragic. Give this man more love.

Chopper (1/10)- why he a monkey? he's literally an animal. don't be dressing him up to look like another animal he already gets called a raccoon :(

Brook (2/10) - he's basically just a deer in headlights i guess. nothing about this fit matches. who allowed him to wear these colors? no eyes i guess

Usopp (1/10) - boy is out here wearing grandmas gardening clothes with geta sandals. not even going to discuss the playboy bunny hat

#one piece #op #one piece film gold #straw hat pirates #straw hats #luffy #zoro #sanji #nami #robin #usopp #brook #chopper #one piece memes #op meme #film gold #funny #monkey d luffy #anime

mutti wo ist blechkuchenranking

You always want to take... but you never want to give. But I guess I am your dance monkey. What is a Blechkuchen? A flat Kuchen baked on a Blech, next.

Donauwelle The ultimate Blechkuchen. The queen of Blechkuchen. Name a better Blechkuchen, you can't. Chocolate... a sexy cherry... cream... the wave. Perfection. A balanced Blechkuchen, which is rare. If I had to eat a Blechkuchen, which, any other type of cake is much preferred, it would be a Donauwelle. 10/10

Zwetschgenkuchen/datschi I've grouped the other Obst-varieties of Blechkuchen together because, naturally, those exist in non-Blechkuchen forms, too. Zwetschgenkuchen also exists in a normal Kuchenform-form. However... Zwetschgenkuchen MILES above all other Obst-Blechkuchen. They hate to see me be correct. 8.5/10. Or 9/10 mit Streuseln (und Sahne).

Any Blechkuchen-Version of some Obstkuchen, e.g. Apfelkuchen, Rhabarberkuchen, Beerenkuchen, etc. I'm not punched from the stool but it's fine, it's a classic. It's above the Butterkuchen because of the fruit component. Makes it more exciting, at least a little bit. I don't know what it is about Blechkuchen that makes me less excited than if the cake were to be in its organic normal form. The eye eats with, I guess. 7/10

Streuselkuchen This one ranks this high not because it's particularly good. It's because Streusel are fantastic. But Streusekuchen as a whole NEEDS fruit, preferably a berry-esque fruit. Otherwise I'm just picking off the Streusel and leaving the rest, like a child. 6.5/10

Zitronenkuchen We're getting into absolute dry-cake territorium and I'm just not into it. I'm counting Zitronenkuchen as a Blechkuchen because... might as well. Marmorkuchen never a Blechkuchen, Zitronenkuchen can be a Blechkuchen - and it remains equally as unexciting. Never met a person absolutely exhilariated about some Zitronenkuchen. 6/10

Fantakuchen I guess kids like it... it's like a Zitronenkuchen, sometimes with Schmandcreme on top... sometimes without. Another dry-cake, no fruit. 5/10

Schmandkuchen (mit Mandarinen) Mandarinen on their own? Yes. Mandarinen in a cake? Absolutely not. They're used to undry a dry ass cake and it's not working for me. Rather Mandarinen than Rosinen but preferably neither. Schmandkuchen... girl... it's whatever. 4.5/10

Butterkuchen ...................the NRW of Blechkuchen................. 2/10

Bienenstich I'm doubling down, babes. You thought I wouldn't but I will. I'd rather eat 10 Butterkuchen than 1 Bienenstich. The crust on top... no. The huge amount of cream... no. I'll repeat myself but this tastes like the color beige. A cake like this NEEDS some contrast, some fruit - but it hasn't. And that's on her. 0/10

Kuchen of the Blech-variety I'm not including but wanna give a honorable mention to:

Zwiebelkuchen

Speckkuchen

Brownies

#blechkuchen #german stuff

I have the most amazing woman in my life. She goes by many names, Mummy, Goddess, Babygirl, Daddys little slut but most of all she is my goddess. Whether she kneels before me or I'm kneeling before her she is my Queen who I truly cherish and love with all of my being. I have never met a woman who truly loves me for me and all my weirdness and odditys and allows me to be 100% me and celebrates me and supports me for it. I love you my Queens and I love you for being truly awesome as well as funny, beautiful and divinely sexy from your head to your toes, I'll love you forever ❤️

Form your lil Monkey😘xxx

Los Angeles Times: Arctic Monkeys’ Alex Turner on fame, Frank Sinatra and the elusive search for the ‘mega-riff’

Written by Mikael Wood, 21/10/2022

Arctic Monkeys blasted out of the U.K. in 2006 with “Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not,” a scrappy modern-classic debut that framed the young quartet as a kind of transatlantic counterpart to the new wave of American garage-revival acts.

Seven years and a part-time move to Los Angeles later, the band conquered U.S. rock radio with the stomping and sexy “AM,” which spun off hits like “R U Mine?” and “Do I Wanna Know?” (Current Spotify play count for the latter: 1.4 billion.) Now the Monkeys — singer Alex Turner, guitarist Jamie Cook, bassist Nick O’Malley and drummer Matt Helders — are two albums deep into their older-and-weirder phase: On “The Car,” which came out Friday and follows 2018’s “Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino,” Turner croons enigmatically about disco balls and snooker clubs over slo-mo psychedelic funk that suggests an otherworldly wedding band.

Which was actually a gig Turner, 36, took up recently when he serenaded a couple of just-married friends with Dion’s “Only You Know” at their nuptials in L.A. “How’d you hear about that?” he asked a few days later over tea in a deserted Los Feliz bar. Told a guest had posted a clip of his performance on Instagram, he laughed and said, “Suppose it would be astonishing these days if that didn’t happen.”

Indeed, though the Monkeys can fill arenas and headline festivals in the U.S., Turner is a proper tabloid-level celebrity (and low-key style icon) in London, where he’s back to living most of the time with his girlfriend, French singer Louise Verneuil. Dressed in a filmy floral-print shirt and smartly tailored trousers, he discussed Frank Sinatra, great hair and the death of England’s queen.

When you were 17 or 18, could you have envisioned yourself singing the way you’re singing now? No. At first I didn’t even accept that I was a singer. I can’t remember really thinking about the idea of melody within the vocal performances. It was focused a lot more on just getting the words out. I can’t put a percentage on it, but I feel like there were a lot more words per 30 seconds of music in that original stage.

Does the early stuff seem overly wordy to you now? I wouldn’t put it like that. But some of the choices I find amusing.

I caught your set at Primavera Sound a couple of weeks ago and there was this funny moment after “Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High?” where you said to the audience, “Simple stuff — let’s hear it for simple stuff.” Well, I’d just repeated that phrase four times in the song, and by the fourth time I said it, people were still saying it back to me. So it seemed like I needed to give some recognition to simple stuff. Not that I necessarily think what we’re doing now is extremely complicated in comparison. But a song like that — that’s on “AM,” and I reckon we had a feeling before that record of trying to go more direct in that moment. I think that tune was probably the most direct you could go.

Do you find the idea of someone asking you to explain your songs excruciating? I don’t know if I’d go all the way to excruciating. I’m just not sure what I would say if someone were to ask me.

As a listener, are you drawn to music that can be kind of confusing? Absolutely not. I’m drawn to straightforward things. For some reason I’m thinking about this “Sinatra at the Sands” record that I love. There’s this song, “Don’t Worry ’Bout Me” — that’s one where you can guess what it’s about from the title. But there’s stuff going on in the band and in the music that’s intricate. He does this bit that always gets me — a sound comes out of his mouth, but it’s not any of the notes. He just kind of swoops up: [Sings] “Look out for yourself.”

How’d you get into Sinatra? Through my dad when I was a little kid. He was playing in a big band, and his stepdad was part of a big band. Between being in my dad’s car and being with my grandparents, that music was around a lot.

Does it feel reasonable to compare “The Car” to something like Sinatra? I’d certainly be careful with that. But the fact that that kind of music has been there is probably partly responsible for why I’ve arrived at a place where I thought it was all right to scratch whatever we’ve been scratching on these last couple of records.

A thing I love about Sinatra is that he still had swagger even as he got older, lost his hair and gained some weight. I remember when I was a kid my grandmother trying to convince me that, you know, “This is what a pop star used to be.” I was like, “What? No, that’s in a different world.” This was when the thing was, like, boy bands or whatever it was. But she was like, “This is what young people used to be mad for.”

You have famously great hair. As a pop star, do you worry about losing it? On some level, no one’s thrilled about that. But I suppose the guy with the microphone has more of a cause for concern. It’s one show at a time, isn’t it?

Say more about being the guy with the microphone. Your performance style these days feels to me like a kind of riff on that idea. There’s a self-awareness to the way you carry yourself. Because we’re back onstage again [after the pandemic], I’m trying not to let myself do things that I would have done three years ago. I’m trying to wrangle the gestures into what’s right for this music, and I think I’m kind of starting to figure it out. It’s not as if I’m sitting down with video after a show and making notes, though in a weird way, I don’t mind that idea.

There are some historical through lines to the role, right? Harry Styles’ act runs back through you and through guys from the ’70s and back to Sinatra. When you see Harry, are you like, “Yeah, I know what that guy’s doing”? What is the answer to that? [Laughs] I feel like I’d have to go see his show to be able to properly answer. Sooner or later I’ll get the chance.

Some Arctic Monkeys fans will hear this album and wish it was more of a loud rock thing. I’m sure. But the rock-guitar side of things, it’s still in there — more than I expected it to be, if I’m honest. I’d been working on this for a while by myself before we had a session with the band. And in that session I started to find myself wanting to stand up and turn up the guitar amp.

Your drummer, Matt, recently told an interviewer that the “heavy riffs” were never coming back. I can’t rule out the possibility that we’re gonna write another mega-riff. But I didn’t find one this time.

Do you enjoy being a pop star? I have very little basis for comparison. The band has been going on for a larger fraction of my lifetime than it hasn’t, which is a threshold that’s only just been crossed. That’s the point at which you cease to be able to give a valid answer to that question.

You ever long for a more traditional life? I mean, just like writing a mega-riff, I don’t want to rule it out. I’m not taking anything off the table.

Last thing. I saw Duran Duran play the Hollywood Bowl in September, and they put a photo of the late Queen Elizabeth on the big video screens and asked the crowd for a moment of silence. What did the crowd do?

Kept respectfully quiet. I don’t know if you’ll have an answer to this, but if you’d been playing a show that weekend, would you have felt some impulse to comment onstage? [Pauses] I think you were right when you said I might not have an answer to that.
