Various Artists — Stop MVP: Artists from WV, VA and NC Against the Mountain Valley Pipeline (War Hen)
The Mountain Valley Pipeline, if it’s ever finished, will stretch over more than 300 miles in rural Wester Virginia and Virginia, crossing environmentally sensitive parts of the Allegheny and Blue Ridge Mountains carrying dangerous, polluting loads of fracked gas. The League of Conservation Votes estimates that the pipeline will generate more than 89 million metric tons of greenhouse gas pollution annually, about as much as 24 average U.S. coal plans or 19 million passenger cars. Building it will require razing forests that have been sequestering carbon for centuries.
It’s a climate catastrophe, and because it runs through an area that is rich in musical history and culture, it has become a focus for artists and activists, including Daniel Bachman, who organized this 40-track compilation in protest of the pipeline. All proceeds from STOP MVP will go to the Appalachian Legal Defense Fund to support protesters resisting the pipeline’s construction.
That is, of course, one compelling reason to buy this set of music, but it is very far from the only one. The music here is exceptionally diverse and almost uniformly excellent. If you look at the cover and envision a steady stream of earnest folk songs, punctuated by some fingerpicking, think again. Certainly that’s represented on these two discs, but so is noise and rock and punk and hip hop and even, at the end, a stirring piece of gospel that will steel you for the cause.
There’s so much music here that it’s hard to get a grip on it all, but let’s hit some highlights. Magic Tuber String Band’s haunted, haunting rendition of “Undone in Sorrow” is both staunchly traditional and absolutely modern in its lament for a natural world gone haywire. Isak Howell, similarly, finds something potent and bracing in minor key picking. Solar Hex straddles baroque classical cello and folk lament, and there are indeed four crows cawing in the background to “Stone Wall with Four Crows.” My favorite discovery in this lengthy, skewed-folk all-star line-up comes from Høly Riot’s “Spirit Riot,” which kicks up a feeling-the-lord-speaking-in-tongues ruckus with its driving, droning ecstasies.
Some of the cuts are literally about the MVP pipeline, like Joshua Vana and Bernadette “BJ” Lark’s full-throated, heart-swelling “To the River,” while others reference the area’s long history of industrial subjugation. “The Dolly Womack Wreck” retells the story of an old-time train wreck, where the engineer was flayed alive by steam from a broken boiler. “The Coal Tattoo,” sung by Bachman’s father, is about his father’s death in a mine explosion. The hip hop/electronic “John Brown” by Appalachian rapper Prolo chronicles generations of poverty and racism in the region.
A lot of well known folk and indie artists have chipped in. There are tracks from Sally Anne Morgan, Ned Oldham, Nathan Bowles, Rosali Middleton (as Edsel Axle). Yasmin Williams and Bachman himself. But the real tribute to Bachman’s taste, restless song-hunting and open-minded-ness comes from the bands you might not be familiar with, the eerie soundscapes of Tallulah Cloos, the beefy country rock of Tucker Riggleman and the Cheap Dates, the unhinged noise of Dog Scream. The mountains and valleys threatened by MVP are rich in plant and animal diversity, but also musical breadth, and this compilation brings them all together for a worthy cause.

God bless all the locals looking out for Jonathan Harker like giving him gifts and rosaries and praying for him. The carriage driver heard where he was going and made excellent time JUST to get him there an hour early so he could say "oh what a shame the count's not here let's go to town instead how's that sound?" which COULD have worked if Dracula didn't hire the buffest weirdest driver who just happened to pull up immediately after.
Everyone is trying SO HARD to keep this idiot foreigner safe and Jon is just over here like "uh I'm not Catholic but the woman putting the rosary around my neck is weeping so I guess I'll wear it to be polite on my way to Murder Hell Castle"
#dracula daily#jonathan harker#the driver being the real mvp he shouldn't have stopped#just roll on through like huh i guess he's not here oh well off to town#jon my boy please listen to the locals no real estate is worth this#dracula

standard edition captured and wounded/tortured stede whump fic but it remembers his pain tolerance, there’s just this whole like
hes off screen getting hurt, you got the screaming you got the shouting, ed spends the entire time in the brig or w/e losing his entire mind about it. and they dump stede back in there and he’s on the floor and ed is having a whole fucking crisis trying to provide some comfort and pet his hair and wake him up
and then after thirty seconds stede just cracks an eye open and goes “im so sorry ed i didn’t have time to give u a secret improv fuckery signal, that must have been awful for u. although honestly i think i oversold that fifth plea for mercy, they really weren’t giving me anything to work with creatively :/”
and yeah he is for real hurt and needs tlc recovery time and maybe lets himself have a lil cathartic cry as a treat once they are safe and alone again bc there’s a fine line to tread between using pain for comedy and pain tolerance as nature vs something he had to learn, and his sort of horribly casual way of rolling w pain and damage to himself once it’s been done and all that
but i do think that “well i didnt care for that and it ruined this shirt which is a real bummer” energy needs more rep in fanworks
#ofmd#our flag means death#stede bonnet#edward teach#gentlebeard#idk man there's just an energy to the whole prospect for me i vibe with it a lot#we tortured the man but it turns out he's on some muppet shit#some real chill abt being pinned to a mast by a sword overnight shit#some 'i mean boarding school was way worse for me bc i never knew when to expect getting messed with this is at least straightforward' shit#izzy like u suck at getting tortured ur such a pissbaby about it we could hear u all the way down here#stede like yeah its called acting idiot now stop fucking talking to me im trying to nap on my husbands lap#local man mvp of the breakout bc their captors think hes a wet paper bag giving him the element of surprise

OH
OH! TIME STOP???????
NADESHIKO TIME STOP???????????
Nadeshiko froze time the moment before even Touya or Yukito could even see a single second of it happening??
Is that what the sudden inverted colours on the previous page was? Not just the AWFUL dramatic emphasis of The Sakura Happy Birthday Hundred Stabbing?
HMM OH ANOTHER READ MORE? HOW SUSPICIOUS
OH JESUS OK SO NADESHIKO IS ALSO NOW DYING UNDER THE INTENSE POWER REQUIRED TO STOP TIME ITSELF
Which is… well, this isn’t really the time but it’s certainly lore consistent! The Time Card was always one of the most intensely difficult cards in CCS, and even moreso when it wasn’t mostly drawing on Clow’s power instead of the user’s.
To just outright Stop Time like this is SO extremely up there in the magic department that it probably Should have been outside her power - and it clearly was, or at least it was so much JUST on the cusp that it required her entire life to maintain it even for a few seconds. Especially since Yuuko mentioned she wasn’t strong enough to send someone across dimensions, so she’s just… Just throwing all she has in an INSTANT to save Sakura’s life.
Nadeshiko was just Ready To Go this whole time - these whole seven years. Ready to sacrifice her life at the drop of a hat at literally any moment. And the SECOND it happened she threw it down without any hesitation whatsoever.
THE SHEER WILLPOWER OF NADESHIKO
SHE DOES NOT FUCK AROUND
#WELL WELL WELL#I have nothing clever to say here I’m just amazed#Nadeshiko MVP#Which we already knew but DAMN#Liveblogging the reservoir chronicle#Tsubasa#Vol 200#Nadeshiko#Lava Lamp Guy#Sakura#Which Sakura?#A Sakura#Not Sakura#And emergency time stop#Gosh and now it’s all up to Lava Lamp#How many seconds does he have#How many seconds will Nadeshiko’s life buy

there is nothing funnier than panicking about defending the portal in the shadowfell and how difficult it's going to be as more and more enemies come onto the battlefield
only to watch them all come running into the meat grinder that is the blood of lathander+spirit guardians and instantly explode
#i mean the two fireballs and an explosive powder helped. but still.#shadowheart just COMICALLY the mvp of that battle#but shoutout to the enemies for all obligingly bunching up in fireball formation before stopping firing arrows that were working#and deciding instead to zerg rush the meat grinder#baldur's gate 3#miri plays bg3

I love Spies Are Forever, because basically the entire runtime is Curt simultaneously being the biggest asshole on planet earth, but also getting the shit bullied out of him by every person he comes into contact with.
#everybody say thank you cynthia#cymthia really was the mvp#she stopped curt from being a complete and utter tit throughout most of the shows runtime#like i love the man but he sucks#owen sucks more but i also love him more sooo#barb and the informant were like the only people who did nothing wrong#tatiana is technically a bit more morally grey but still definitely not as bad as curtwen#spies are forever#tcb spies are forever#saf#agent curt mega

the most realistic thing about Godzilla is that all those kids died because the idiot cops were blocking a two lane bridge while screaming “LET THE BUSES THROUGH” they can’t your stupid ass cop cars are in the way. Just like real cops their idiocy and malice gets folks killed.
#Baked rewatch#Godzilla#They literally put up blockades on the one bridge being used for evacuation then are surprise pikachuing when the buses stop#And like life the real mvp is the bus driver who gets those kids out of there by plowing through their blockage#GO BUS DRIVER

I love the medic Leo headcanon with all my heart and I refuse to part with it
#rottmnt#rottmnt headcanons#rottmnt leo#medic leo#listen I know we have precious little to go off of#but it honestly WORKS so well and feels so right for him#plus I’m infinitely more interested in a donnie who could be a medic but actively chooses not to bc ew gross#than one who is medic by default of being the smartest#plus faceman leo being the medic is also so good in a character depth way?#in that it ties into the things Leo keeps hidden#I will stop before I go on too long but medic Leo mvp
