Auto-Memories And Humanity’s Scrap Materia
Becoming a person is a process that fills the corners of the eyes many times before it begins to fill the void within. At least, in my case. It is not a hot take to say that Violet Evergarden made me cry, or sob, or bawl like a fuckin’ baby. It’s a beautifully drawn and…
Games About Trauma
(I’m gonna try not to get too specific about what I’ve been through, but we’ll see how that goes. And I made another playlist!! :3 I listen to this one when I’m 1) playing Fallen Order or 2) outside and paralytically anxious that I’ll get hatecrimed.) In my last post about fault, I included an…
On Longing And Spectral Wings
Hey. I made you a playlist. Three hundred and sixty-seven days ago I attemped to analyze the intensely lonely longing i felt listening to Endless Summer Malaise by Twinkle Park. I had not slept the night before and had both read all of Di Gi Charat and rewatched its first anime adaptation that same day.…
That Haze, Low Teens, and things in dreams, or: The Sacred, Profane, Music, and You (How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Start Resenting My Absence)
In 2016, American metalcore band Every Time I Die released the album Low Teens. In 2022 they split. And in the last week Low Teens has become one of my favorite albums, as in, one of several number one favorites. I first listened to it a few years after it came out and just let…
How I Spent My Summer Vacation
(Credits to Hazel on Youtube for the concept, it sounded fun. And if you can invoke elementary school in a fun way, that’s a rare talent. Also, because I’m me, here’s a playlist with songs All About everything I will mention.) I’ve been spotty with writing for the blog this summer. And the last year.…
A Perfectly Normal Media Diary
Apparently this is a thing that one might do on the blog-o-sphere, a fact I learned after my “fun things are fun” post. But you know, sometimes grimly unfun things are fun too. I’ve been reading a lot of Dazai Osamu lately. I mean Ningen Shikkaku has been my favorite book since I read it…
Oyasumi Punpun broke me again… But not the way you might expect
I have read thirteen out of thirteen volumes of Oyasumi Punpun, and I think that’s about enough. The eleven-volume figure was one of many, many mistakes I made in my last post. Sadly, that is one of the most popular things I’ve written. Going back to it for the purposes of a call-and-response here was…
Fun Things Are Fun! (Part 1?)
I want this blog to be a place where I can talk about random things that make me happy lately and where maybe I can turn some of you on to something new, one of my weird hyperfixations. That said, bitches be watching movies (it’s me, I’m bitches.) 1994’s Yamato Takeru, brought stateside as Orochi,…
Nautilus Chambers: Looking Back and Forth
I do this too much. But this isn’t an anime blog anymore, for as much as I love anime I have a whole life and thoughts, both about other things. And I don’t know if my hysteria deserves to be shared, I don’t even know if my logical thoughts were worth anyone’s time and those…
The Stream Of Consciousness Invoked By Sayonara Eri
Fujimoto Tatsuki-sensei is a fucking genius. Sayonara Eri is the perfect one-shot microcosm of just why. This is written with the expectation that you have read at least the first third; spoilers, as ever, abound. Yuuta’s mother is dying, we understand this from the word go, the starting pistol has it out for her. Hell,…
