masterpiece theater

finally worked up the initiative to start painting the models i put together a month ago, which came with stickers but they looked bad and didnt really stick well

unfortunately, despite the fact that there isnt really much to paint surface-area-wise, it is SO tedious. hoping they’ll look nice enough at the end for me to feel satisfied at least, and they wont be staring at me unfinished from my shelf anymore

listening to all of the sonic the hedgehog game vocal tracks to fill out this tier list. series where so often i'm like wow this song is banging! too bad the game it comes from suUuUuUuUucks

why is there a really good sax solo in amy rose's theme 'my sweet passion' from sonic adventure 1? i thought i finally had something for my bottom "I hate it" tier and i have to bump it up to 'mediocre'

at least i can put big's theme at the bottom. gill introducing this one with 'this is one of those songs where they just got a singer from off the street' and even if they're being hyperbolic, it sure sounds like it. WE'VE JUST HIT A PIANO SOLO IN IT THAT SOUNDS DECENT BUT I WONT MOVE IT. ITS STAYING BOTTOM TIER

gill read me this comment while we were listening to this and i started sobbing laughing

'endless possibility' comes on and i'm immediately like 'sounds like bowling for soup'. and it WAS

anyway, after enduring what felt like 100000 songs from sonic and the secret rings and various sonic riders games, the bowling for soup guy sounds like an angel by comparison

Hello everyone, I'm attending a UNRWA fundraiser tonight and would love your help raising money for life-saving support in Palestine. I'm a broke college student and I've donated $50, if you can match even 10% of that you'll be doing a world of good. The donation portal is at the bottom of the webpage.

100% of the money you give will be going directly to supporting the food, housing, & medical care UNRWA is currently providing to hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza, the west Bank & Jerusalem. This fundraiser will be going through the end of Ramadan. Also Rashida Tlaib gave a very nice speech.

mother 1 soundtrack album… i should be sleeping but im spending some time with it again instead. the percussion in magicant is so nice

i am sure i have like, Zero thoughts about this album that other people haven't had already, but it still leaves a really strong impression on me. opinions (potentially well trod/sacrilegious) incoming

im so torn between being charmed by the circumstances in which the songs received fluent but monumentally corny english lyrics, and kind of bemoaning that the compositions and instrumentation are genuinely fantastic in a way that the lyrics frequently aren't

the lyrical style DOES legitimately work with Pollyanna, given its subject matter. and since childhood and friendship are prominent themes of the game, the song lyrics having a childish naivete in general isn't unfitting. i think The Paradise Line is the song that suffers hardest from its lyrics- the vocalist being obviously an adult contributes to why they bother me there. i'm not a poet or lyricist so its not like i could do better- i'm not a musician either so my opinions on the quality of anything music related should not be taken authoritatively. i just can't help but wonder if some of the songs would hit a lot harder if a better poet had been tasked with writing the lyrics

anyway. overall i really like the album and none of the lyrics actually ruin the songs for me, even if paradise line comes closest. the only track i always skip is wisdom of the world, but i don't think its lyrics are why, i just don't care for it.

also i love the track thats just a 20 minute mashup of songs from the actual game. i love that factory track in a way i wouldn't have expected for how noisy it is

found out that the pokemon quiz has multiplayer and got briefly excited, but i've spent too long training at this quiz. im not sure who i could invite to play this with me who would have fun

i think the ideal way for me to do pokemon quiz with other people is in a group call, and i just type in everyone's answers as they give them because i type fast as hell. and i can give hints because i can remember most of them very quickly

god. maybe i should simplify my neopets story by saying that sam lives on the dark side of kreludor instead of on KZ80 (asteroid i made up). they haven't done much with the dark side of kreludor yet afaik so a huge garbage dump COULD be there. theoretically
