Cinema:

I meant to post this sooner, but *gestures* things happened and I got too distracted and unfocused. So two weeks late, here it is!

Again I didn’t do any reading like I meant to, which really sucks. I really need to get back to reading my books because I was so into them and it feels like I don’t have time. I’d also intended to watch stuff on prime (I wanted to watch Red White and Royal Blue but never found the time) and shudder (there was some good sounding films this time!). I might have watched a film in the cinema if the showings were on better times

However I did manage to do some games (which were good but the endings…) and do a bunch of the Saw run (which is super fun!). Plus there’s Ahsoka and Futurama and the Babylon 5 film turned out to be awesome.

Plus, as I’ve said before, words have come back! So writing has taken a decent chunk of time especially when I’m in the zone.

Hopefully this months round up will be earlier!

***

There’s gonna be another post later, because Things happened yesterday that feel like a personal attack (in a good way) and I was gonna tack them to this post but I feel they deserve their own thing so that’s what they’re getting (probably around lunch time)

‘You did not smile we were in an emo band!’

So as I mentioned in the round up post, the second half of yesterday felt like a bunch of things kept happening all the time.

So first there was the new cover of Kerrang which is of Sleep Token and I…



The aesthetics of this. It led me down a little rabbit hole, because I wasn’t sure if this was just an outfit for a photoshoot or not. But no this seems to be Vessel’s standard attire and it is such a look.

Sleep Token fans also seem to be feral. I didn’t think to order it from the kerrang site (cause I’m going to Birmingham soon) but I checked later in the day and it was sold out. Not just a limited bundle (which I wish I’d seen because the print was cool) but their entire stock of the issue. Every other back issue is in stock (even the Maneskin one) but this one? Out of stock in less than a day what??

It be watched some of seapeekay’s stream which proved to be a good choice because he played some of his old band’s music which was so cool, and showed old content of himself (damn he looked like such a scene boy, it’s cute, I might have to watch some of his older vids). And then he sung along to MCR’s House Of Wolves which was something I didn’t know I needed.

There was a Nintendo direct yesterday, which was a bunch of remakes and some interesting looking games. I think the one I’m looking forward to most is the Princess Peach one, it just looks so fun! And the splatoon 3 dlc that opened it looked pretty interesting too.

I was having a conversation with fleshdoll about how I expected my brain rot for Maxx to come back at full force (and instead had developed it for Seapeekay) and he must have sensed it because minutes later he posted he’d stream for the first time in almost two years.

Naturally all other plans went out the window, though I did watch some of Slime’s stream on the qsmp beforehand. It ended up being about him, Roier and Tubbo going through a maze and it was a mix of fun and utterly insane. I dunno why they decided to send these three together because… well none of them are a Cellbit, but damn it was fun to watch Slime and Tubbo fighting over a federation worker. And evil Cucurucho. And there was a roulette with lava.

Of course I switched out to Maxx’s stream (though thankfully they did the maze by then) and ahh it was nice to see him again. He’s so pretty and cute. It ended up being just a talking one, but lasted almost three hours somehow. He’s hoping to do more streams, although he’s not sure which games todo. There’s also a drumkit with his set up so he can drum too which would be pretty awesome! Hopefully he comes up with a schedule and next time I have more than a few hours warning, but it was nice to see him again.

And then there was Quackity and Rubius being together for the premier of Rubius’s show which was cute. I hope they add it to uk Amazon prime, it looks fun! (Even though I’m bad at subtitled stuff recently)

It seems something was in the air, because from clips I saw, the Foolish and Shoto fortnite stream ended up being pretty feral and unhinged. (That was what I was gonna watch but then Maxx).

Today I’d hoped to make icons and hunt for my drawstring bag for the gig but alas I didn’t because mum decided to be very... mum this morning. It’s a mix of being annoying about us not doing stuff lately (mostly due to the fridge) and also not ordering the Ninja thing she was gonna get Wednesday (despite me saying that she could) and it’s just so… ugh.

Hopefully I can bundle up now and write a bit soon, but we’ll see. At least a fun Voyager ep is on now, and my James magazine came this morning!
