Ultimately, I did not upload Big Bird, I Imagine, or Airplane. Drowsiness won and I fell asleep after work. I need to stop doing that. Anyhoo, I uploaded, "My Love Mine All Mine," by Mitski. It had occurred to me that as of 9/12, it had been a year since me and Stef went to that concert. It felt right to upload it.
Lately, when I upload my concert videos, I've been making all the thumbnails on Procreate. I've been having a lot of fun doing that and its always interesting to see what I can make to accompany the song. "I AM DOG NOW," by Chat Pile is riffing on the "I got that dawg in me," meme. "Care," by Hana Vu edits the actual single art used for the song but her Jester hat now resembles Snort. This was when the trio's theme revolved around Snort's recovery and the inciting incident. My Love Mine All Mine is based off of a funny sign me and Stef saw while walking back to the car. I remember sitting in a corner and holding Snort like he was my baby and Stef took the picture. I know at the time, I wanted the facial expression to read that Snort is the only thing I care about and that the seperation would shatter me. For the cover, I reuse the pose but block out parts of my body to better resemble the simplicity these signs seem to love so much. Snort was not simplified. My child is more complex than what meets the eye.
In the original post, I mention this lingering cough I had leading up to and during the concert. Midway during the concert, I start coughing, hard. Mitski was performing a more quiet, slow song. I exited so people could enjoy it. I'm by the gate, next to some trash cans and the intensity is so hard that I straight up black out. I'm out for what could be 3 seconds before I wake. The cough magically vanished and I resume the viewing without issue. I never bring this up to Stef or anyone. Anyways, I felt this detail was unnecessary so I deleted it from the post. It was more of a transition when I mention the dead pose shoot.
This past Saturday, me and Kaitlyn saw Saturday Night Fever. Advanced levels of racism and intermediate homophobia was present in the film. The music was obviously great. Its not presented as a musical or anything but the soundtrack introduces banger after banger. Must have been crazy to see this in the 70's. We started to watch Staying Alive which is the bastard sequel no one asked for but she was too sleepy to finish it. The movie has a 3% on rotten tomatoes. Disgraceful. Its not even that bad of a movie. Grease 2 should have that score, but thanks to woke its sitting at a 36%. Yuck!!! Listen, Grease 2 is genuinely the worst movie I've ever seen in my life. Grease 2 is the bar I set for anything bad. Staying Alive is far superior. That's all I'm saying. Also John Travolta is the most shredded he will ever be in his life for that movie. Funny movie to have 0% body fat for tbh. Idk, its interesting to see a movie that's not good but also not bad and imagining what could be done to improve it.
Saturday Night Fever has a surprising amount of truth bombs in there. It's the equivalent of petting a dog and the dog looks at you and says, "how much longer can you live this way?" And then the dog proceeds to act like a dog.
This is going to be a big week. I can sense it. Or maybe that's just the anxiety seeping in. Dark clouds always do that.
I don't understand
