Pick a song based on a bad description! You do not have to recognize any of the songs to choose them. You're going more for a mood. A vibe. Whatever cracks you up. Roll a d12, maybe. Just pick something and reblog the poll (reblogging is important -- we get a lot of ties if there's not a bunch of votes, so please reblog!)
At the end of the week, I will take all the songs and put them in a playlist, starting with the song that has the least number of votes and working up to the song with the most votes. I will then share the poll around one last time with a link to the playlist and all individual songs. If you would like to hear the finished playlist, please leave a comment or mention it in tags or whatever, and I will tag you when the playlist is finished.
Also, if you're intrigued by a description and you just can't wait, shoot me an ask and I will tell you the name/artist of the song that you're interested in. But like I said, you don't have to know to vote. Go with what you feel in your heart.

Thinking about the version of Mark that DID survive out in the wasteland for all those years (???) (post-Angstrom fight). Thinking about him being told he wouldn’t like who he had become. Thinking about Mark whispering “I thought you were stronger” at the bloody corpse crushed into the sand. Thinking about the hot sun and incredibly hot earth and unwavering isolation at such a critically vulnerable point. Mark, stranded and bloody, left to wonder if this was worth trying to protect his family, left to wonder if the violence in him is inevitable, as if it's some evil thing that's always been there, underneath his skin, just now waking. Left to wonder until he trips into spiraling, but no matter how loud he screams these questions into the sky, there is nothing but silence. A corpse for company. Thinking about the crushing weight of loneliness, and your own shocked mind. Thinking about being that way for years and years and years, somehow surviving. Only to become something a younger you wouldn’t "like". And what that looks like.
Thinking about the Mark that did get rescued, and being left to wonder how many times other versions of himself stumble into bad endings. How long until he becomes something he wouldn't like.

this whole thing has made me think a lot about my own past relationships* and it’s been very strange to put it lightly and distantly

I know I Jack-O' post 95% of the time when I get stoned, but know that I love Axl Low too and have two long, strong, arms and can hug them both at the same time

I wish strong feelings and emotions had a better way to feel like they translate to physical space. For me, personally, I get that shit cranked to 11 and if I can't get that shit out there and verbalized or shown it ends up making me cry. Fear about loss and change and thinking 30 years into the future? Cry. Have so much love in your body at once and can't let enough of it get shown to those who matter to you? Cry a whole lot. I used to put it towards art and especially personal poems or made up song lyrics or something but idk. I can't be staying up sobbing at 4 am due to random thoughts. Its always when I feel like I'm doing my best that this happens, idk if its just processing everything.
I know my emotional regulation skills aren't the best and I often go from a thousand yard stare to crying or a laughing fit or something. I don't want to be like this really, and often times this does happen when I think about loved ones a lot when I'm alone and I just end up wishing I was around someone I can feel loved by and love so much. Maybe I just want to be anywhere besides this 'home' where I know I'm actively seen as a nuisance and treated as a lesser person.

radio pop artists will spend months & months on the rollout of a new song being like “this new ERA for will SHOCK & SURPRISE …. it will be ICONIC…. u will GASP in DISBELIEF when u see what we’ve been WORKING on …..” & then their next single is like the most predictable, inoffensive, radio friendly song u’ve ever heard 😭

I just think nanami from jjk is so neat. He pretends to be self-serving and it’s not entirely a lie, he’s super up front about hating the salaryman work ethic and hating work and begrudgingly choosing a career path that gets him good money and suits him well.
but I think it’s because he’s such a cynical character that when he makes it crystal clear that he knows and feels like he has societal obligations to the future generation, I was, sorry to put it in a sillay way, surprised to find that I was surprised by it. I know I’m putting the bar 6 feet under but he’s adamant about setting that moral point- that children should never feel they HAVE to bear this burden, that children should never feel bad about needing help, that while he chose this path, high schoolers shouldn’t fucking have to feel obligated to lay their lives down just because they have powers. That they are just that- children, and children should never be ashamed for being children.
jjk fans yall know that these children are no strangers to trauma. The fact that they had to mature well beyond their years in so little time is kind of par for the course at that school. So having someone like nanami there, a fucking upstanding citizen who’s not like, sweet, but has a moral backbone made of fucking adamantium- a guy who tells these kids who have seen more than anyone should ever have to see that it’s okay, you can leave it to us, and you don’t have to feel bad about it- is fucking invaluable. You can be weary of the world and the ways it has worn you down but still care.

ok. giving myself 4 minutes to make this post and then i finish my homework. i just am so deeply miserable. i really think i made a mistake. i should not be in grad school. i only took a year between this and undergrad and i am still so burned out and mentally ill. im working full time. im only taking one class and this program is supposed to be so good and aligned with what i want and all of that. but i just cant stand having homework. i just cant stand it. i think i am not cut out for academia even though i work in academia. i think i will never get better as long as im still living at home but i have to get better before i can no longer be living at home but i cant get better until im not living at home and every day i still live at home saps away at my will to live quite literally. i should not have started doing grad school without regaining my will to live. without restoring my love for reading and writing that i used to have voraciously when i was younger and less deeply miserable. without recovering from the burnout. i think i made a mistake. i need a masters degree so bad so that i can be safe but i need to not have fucking homework when i already struggle to get through my days without school. i feel so stuck in my life and hopeless and helpless. i dont know what to do
