So I’m gonna do a more general post sometime soon, but this is gonna be a one topic post!

So at Slam Dunk a few weeks back Set It Off said they’d be doing a uk tour next year. A few days ago the dates got announced and there’s a Birmingham date, woo! Presale was announced for today so I figured it’d be easy to get. They aren’t super well known so I didn’t expect there to be issues selling out or anything.

So this morning I went on Ticketmaster to get the ticket and, although it knew that there was an artist presale, it didn’t let you access it. It wasn’t just me, others had the issue too and it wasn’t just my date either. I kept trying and had all kinds of issues with it which made the whole thing stressful (in a different way to Sleep Token). To make it worse Ticketmaster was the only option for Birmingham dates so it’s not like I could just try anywhere else. (And it didn’t help the site acted I was a bit!)

Over the day people got them for other dates, but Birmingham was the last date still with issues. In fact it took someone else posting a specific link for me to actually get one, rather than refreshing. I honestly don’t know why it was such an issue.

For reference, presale was meant to be live from 9am, I didn’t get the ticket until about 9:45pm. So it took almost 13 hours which is?? Again I knew I’d just be able to get the ticket Wednesday in general sale, but it’s the principle of the whole thing and it’s just drained me a bit.

But yeah I’ve got the ticket after all the nonsense, so I’m gonna be back on my Set It Off fixation (and by that I mean my Maxx fixation) so you know what that means? A random picspam! (In part sponsored by one I saw on twitter)

Current Music: Geoff stream

So I’d been intending to do a song Saturday series for Slam Dunk for months now, but things kept coming up/going wrong so instead of doing one every month/few weeks I’ve just not, boo! Anyway this is gonna be the first one, there is (hopefully) gonna be 4-7 of these but we’ll see.

The first 5 are gonna be done in order of my excitement to see them. With the last two being the newer ones so I’m not sure how I’ll place them.

So since Set It Off are first they’re the ones I wanna see most, meaning they’re the band who I will see regardless of who else is playing at that slot (shouldn’t be a problem, most of the bands I wanna see are the same stage). This is in part cause my time seeing them ended up being a disaster and I missed some of their set as a result, so I wanna see them properly (even though the festival set will be much shorter)

Anyway, onto the songs for them. I’ve decided on three, from the last three ‘eras’ they’ve done (I could do earlier ones but I figured three is enough.

First is the Midnight era song, Lonely Dance.

Watch on YouTube

Midnight was the era that I got into the band and this was one of the first songs I heard that got me into them. Lonely Dance is one of my fav songs, even though (or perhaps because) it’s a song about depression and one I relate to as a result.

The video however is so… I say it’s like MCR’s Ghost Of You in the sense the video isn’t what you’d expect the song to be. It’s set on a spaceship, with a creature picking off the band one by one and killing them. I’ve no idea what made them do that but I love it, it’s such an awesome concept and it kinda feels like no expense was spared? The spaceship feels like it could be a set for a show or film, the prosthetics and make up wouldn’t lipook out of place in one either and it just feels so… (ironically) cinematic.

Also Maxx looks pretty with his bandana during the drumming sections and he does the drumstick twirl I love.

Next is the Elsewhere era song, Skeleton.

Watch on YouTube

Skeleton was the first song from Elsewhere and it really set the tone. It’s my fav of the songs that they released as a single from it and I’m not sure if it’s cause it’s the first one I heard. What I love about the Elsewhere vids is that everything is so bright. The whole band have bright coloured hair (Maxx’s green hair is such a look) and the sets for the vids are equally bright, with a riot of colour.

Skeleton starts the Elsewhere vids showing off how weird and strange the brightly coloured world is. There’s a waiting room with strange people (including a devil, a nice reference to one of their other songs) and then it ends with Cody strapped down with the implication of surgery being done to him. It’s just so strange. The other Elsewhere vids are set in the same sort of world but it kinda feels they didn’t tell the whole story they meant it too. (Though now I wanna watch the other Elsewhere vids to be sure)

But again, Maxx is hot with the green hair.

Lastly is the current era song, Punching Bag.

Watch on YouTube

The current era is kinda strange. It doesn’t have an album yet like the others, despite a few songs put out and Punching Bag is the main one with a video. it’s odd cause in the promo for some of the other songs there are clips of what is clearly from a music video (with Evil People especially) yet there’s no video for them. It’s strange.

I do love the aesthetic of this one, though, with some of it seemingly recorded on video giving it a found footage type feel. And I love how their eyes are kinda scratched out a few times. It makes me wonder (especially with the eyes at the start) if it means something but I’ve no idea.

I end on some pictures. I think it’s pretty obvious from this (and the few Set It Off fics I’ve done), that I have a fav member and that member is Maxx. I dunno there’s just something about him that I love. Maybe it’s cause I watched him stream a bunch and got to know him via that, or maybe it’s just cause I find him pretty.

Anyway there ends my song Saturday vid post/thirst pics of Maxx Danziger. (I just love him and crave more content with him please someone do some)

Next week I might continue this was the next Slam Dunk band (though I might do a bonus song Saturday tomorrow too unrelated)

Current Music: Set It Off - Midnight Thoughts

It’s the Friday before christmas and I dunno if anyone else feels like this, but it doesn’t feel like christmas at all. Like, it feels like there should be at least another or something before it not that it’s in a few days.

I know for me it might be due to the anxiety and uni stress. But I dunno, is it a general feeling?

The past few days my head ahas been a bit achy which has made my eyes feel funny in the nights which has been so irritating. I’ve wanted to work on stuff and game but my head’s not had the best focus which has been annoying. Bleh.

On the plus side it’s emant I listened to some Who audios. I listened to the Isos Network on bbc sounds which was the first second Doctor audio I’ve heard. I was so surprised by how good the person voicing the second Doctor was, and was surprised when I saw the cast list that it was Frazer Hines (who was also voicing Jamie) which was such a surprise. It was also a little strange as him and Wendy Padbury (the voice of Zoe) also did narration which I’ve not heard in other ones. I’m not sure what I feel about that, cause it does set scenes but took a bit of getting used to.

I also listened to one of the Paternoster Gang audios last night and I felt so hard for Madame Vastra. Her commentary on the human race and how it deals with those that are different, was sadly spot on and feels even more true now. Sadly. I might put on the next one later.

I did manage to game some yesterday. Baldur’s Gate downloaded but a patch came out yesterday so I couldn’t play right away. So in the afternoon I ended up finally going back in Jedi Survivor. I didn’t do much but I did get off Coruscant (the last thing I did was landing on Koboh) so I’m excited to get back.

I did manage to do some on Baldur’s Gate last night and I spent half an hour on character creation making my character, a Drow Bard called Callum (my in game names are often a sign of whatever fixation I have so make of of that what you will). He looks so cool and I’m excited to do more. He even has vicious mockery which I remember Maxx using when he did dnd! I did a bit of the game on the ship, and I ended just after waking Shadowheart.

(I just got an Astarion tee from qwertee, despite not meeting him yet oop)

Today I had a delivery, missing parts from the advent calendar and the dungeons and dragons magazine thing I got from the Black Friday offer. So now I have doubles of the first two issues and the dice. Oop.

I also did some iconning but then the laptop needed yet another update (thats four now!) which ugh! Is anyone good at getting screencaps though? I need to get some for icons but I’m hopeless.

Tomorrow I’m gonna be going out insanely early to pick up a food order and do a food shop which I know is gonna be exhausting and stressful. Ugh. I hope I’ll be able to rest when I get back and work on stuff but ughh. I fully expect I’ll just flop, eat my veggie sushi and watch the dickens stuff on sky arts.

I hope everyone has a nice christmas/yule/new year (and any other celebrations too) I hope everyone has a nice time and gets to rest.

I’m ending this post with Eret pics, because I can and because she looks hot.

So it’s July but I’m still gonna continue his cause time isn’t real nothing is real

So yeah I was meant to do long wordy posts for this over the last week or so but words just haven’t came because of various things so it’s another pic post. This time bought to you by the Murder Mystery stream because Foolish was in bunny ears (well technically hare ears but still).

(I also meant to do this last night but my net was acting up and I’m only doing it right now cause the bus I was gonna catch has been cancelled ugh)

These are a mix of caps I took (which are bad) and ones from this

Here’s a pic of what to expect, the rest is under the cut

So I’ve just come back from being out which was tiring (in part because we got more than expected, in part because the heat HAS RETURNED blah) but I figured I’d do another one of these posts (which is a smaller and different one that I expected but…

I don’t know why it’s a thing but for some reason streamers have a habit of having maid dress streams as sub goals. Unfortunately I’ve not seen one live (and James Marriott was meant to do one but hasn’t yet, come on James!) so as a result I’ve only seen pics and clips)

So if you wanna see cute boys in maid dresses you’ve come to the right place!

There’ll probably be a more regular, coherent post sometime later at the moment though I’m gonna be incoherently flailing.

So a little while ago on Wilbur’s (now rare) stream. Quackity came on vc and they ended up talking with Wilbur saying that he’d get him onstage and Quackity saying if they did they’d sing Welcome To The Black Parade.

Cut to me waking this morning, the day after the Lovejoy concert in LA and seeing this rtd by an update account. They only sung Welcome To The Black Parade! (Or some at least!) and then Quackity stayed onstage to sing Perfume (sing/read lyrics from his phone) and just…

Ahhh! I need to fic something based on last night. Also Eret was there (which he said at the end of her stream Saturday and just ahhh)! It doesn’t look like they wore a dress or stompers which is a shame, though there’s not a full fit pic so maybe a skirt?

But anyway pics from the show and such ahoy

I wonder if there’s gonna be a wine stream part 2 soon? Fuck I hope so. Or something on Eret’s stream

Current Music: Lovejoy - Perfume

So I’d been meaning for awhile to do a pic reference post for all the streamers so figured I should do one now, so here it is. Most of these can be put into three categories: ones I’ve ficced already, ones I plan to fic and ones I don’t plan to fic but might soon.

I’m sure I’m missing someone so I might update this at some point and I might add some more info later too, but for now, it’s just pics and names.

So after mentioning in the last post about updating the fic post I decided that instead of updating it directly (or copying most of it and adding things) I’m just gonna make this separate one. So stuff from that still applies, especially Ray, Jay, Maxx etc and the kinks.

Instead this one is just gonna be adding streamers. It’s not gonna be all of the ones I like, just top 5 I think (mostly cause my focus is still a bit off so I might add them later).

So here they be (in order of the pics that come up for them, so it’s starting with the ones I just updated.

Like I said I might edit this later to add more people or edit in kinks (or maybe links to vids) but yee

I’m feeling kinda better, but still a bit bleh. I even ended up having an early night last night cause of it and it’s so… boo.

Good thing, I found somewhere that can replace the pad battery. They’re even about 20 minutes walk away, so I should be able to go and get that sorted on Thursday afternoon. I e-mailed them and you don’t need to make an appointment so that’s a plus.

Anyway, non-pad stuff since you must be sick of it.

Lately Leia has been very snuggly when I go to bed and even in the mornings. This sometimes happens, usually when it get colder but this has been virtually every night this past week.

Recently during one of these cuddles I felt something on her head, between her ears. I couldn’t tell if it was matted fur or something else. Turns out it was the something else. It seems she’s bumped her head on something. We’re not sure what, but I’m thinking it might have been when she jumped into the shed. Thankfully she seems fine, so that’s good because the last thing we need is a vet’s thing.

Here is a pic of her when I went to bed last night.

What else? Tomorrow is MCC so I’m likely gonna watch Ranboo again. I think he’s gonna be dressed as Sans from Undertale this time, but who knows.

Strictly starts tonight and I don’t know who is in it other than Ellie. I know I saw a list, but at honestly can’t remember other than her. I’m wondering if the Who trailer will be before one of the eps. I guess we’ll see,

Dream is gonna be face revealing soon, which I think means it’s likely next week because he’s gonna be at twitch con the start of October.

I can’t think of anything else, though I’m sure there was another thought in my head. I’m sure it’ll come to mind soon, in which case I’ll save it for the next post.

There might be multiple posts today (we’ll see) but today is the first. So pic post ahoy.

I may get round to answering other comments later depending on my mood (spoiler: it’s not been good). But at least one god thing happened yesterday: the stuff from eBay came which is a surprise cause Evri still have the punz bees somewhere and I can’t find a contact page.

Current Music: CG5 - Lonely King

So in an idea stolen from

kat_lair (via

dreamersdare) I’m gonna try and post daily this month.

Watch as it fizzles out after a few days.

Last night we ended up having an epic thunderstorm which was so impressive. We had a brief one Sunday night (the lighting starting just as I was putting stuff in the bin outside) but yesterdays lasted much much longer.

Also last night was the last eps of the first season of the 2019 Twilight Zone, which I thought was pretty good and I hope the second series is on next week two (the last ep was very meta). One thing I learned from the series is what Jordan Peele looked like cause I’d never seen him before.

In the Xbox sales last week there was a paradox sale and last night I ended up getting some stuff from it. I dunno why that Stellaris suddenly super appealed but it did. Of course it’s one of those time sink kind of games so we’ll see if it was worth it, but at least I had my monthly £5 from xbox rewards to use on it.

Today the cult of the lamb qwertee came which is so cute (xbox please hurry up with the patch) and there was a random one, which thankfully turned out to be a Pokemon one.

Today I’m waiting on the food shop, though I’m heading up the road after this post cause one of the substitutions is cat food to one which makes them sick (because of course it is) so I have to send it back. And then I wanna see if I can do some of todays fortnite quests before it comes.

I’m hoping to get better at looking through dreamwidth again. With my energy being so low and off I’ve been so bad at it, which is pretty sucky.

Other things I wanna do this week:
*Fic, which I’ve utterly failed at despite meaning to
*Work on dnd character sheets (see above)
*Game some more (Destiny 2, Fenyx rising, stellaris, maybe start spooky season game list)
*Watch something on shudder
*finally watch the umbrella academy season 3 (ha!)
*Watch Lower Decks
*Read more Lesser Known Monsters

Also there’s the big quackity lore stream Saturday, as well as the Sam Bucket one tonight, though neither have times yet.

(And i absolutely know I’m missing something but can’t think what)

Lastly some pics of Foolish, cause he went to the beach and posted thirst traps and… Unf.

Current Music: As It Is - In Threes

The past few days have been pretty lazy really and now we’re in the strange no man’s land between Christmas and new year which is always… odd.

The main thing I’ve been doing is watching stuff and building Lego. The watching stuff included watching Around The World In 80 days and Death In Paradise yesterday. The later was fun as always (with surprise incest) which the former was more serious than I expected. I thought it would be… I dunno, more whimsical. But it was way more serious than I expected. I think the second ep was better than the first.

(Annoyingly my head was annoying yesterday so I almost missed the start while I was lying down.)

Also we watched the Christmas bake off which was fun. Olly’s pretty cute isn’t he? As is Nathanial. (I think that’s his name? The longs haired hot one.)

I got three lego sets for Christmas, which are my main presents. The first I made, as mentioned before, was Slave I (aka Boba Fett’s ship) and it’s my fav although it’s obviously small. I can’t quite figure the stand yet, but that’s ok.

The other two were Potter sets and, well, I’m in two minds over them. (Because obviously JK is a bitch, but mum got them months ago before she continued to double down so…) I think I’d have preferred to get the Lego Mario question mark block, but then I didn’t even know about it when mum decided to get them. (And when I did I’d hoped Uni money would behave so I could get it myself.)

Anyway, the two sets were Hogsmeade Village Visit and the chamber of secrets. The former has the sweet shop and the three broomsticks and… while they are cute and have some nice details, they do feel a little small. They look festive though, with the snow.

The chamber of secrets is an odd build. It’s a collection of rooms, and most of the bags make one each (apart from the last two. The rooms are an astronomy room, defence against the dark arts classroom, Lockhart’s office, the great hall (and roof of it) and then the chamber of secrets. What puzzles me about the build is how it’s built. I expected the chamber to be built first (cause it’s the ground floor of the build) but actually it was made last. It’s a little strange building it from the top down, but having the builds be one room per bag meant I could take breaks between them.

As it is, it looks nice. The chamber definitely looks like the best part, with the giant head and the slide (though in the main build there’s no way to access the slide, you need the polyjuice set to access it properly, which I had). Plus there’s cute little pixies and the basilisk looks pretty impressive.

Today I finished the build and watched two films. Finding Dory was cute. And the Horrible Histories film was so funny! I hope they do more,and it was so fun with all the cameos. I’m gonna be watching Travel man on 1 soon which will no doubt make me wanna go to Iceland more.

My fic brain is being odd giving me more vague ideas, but I’m wanting to do the two Christmas fics I’m meant to do first (even though I have zero ideas for one)

I have managed to gain another hyperfixation because of the DreamSMP (seriously why are so many of the guys on it so damn hot?). I was minding my own business the other night and saw someone post a video of Wilbur complaining about Eret and his castle (with Wilbur saying he’d build a bigger and gayer one). So I decided to look into him a bit more. I’d seen him on Tommy’s talent show so all I knew was he had an insanely deep voice. So I watched a few videos with him and just… gah. He’s bi, uses any pronouns and is just…

And then I saw he’d posted pics on Halloween and I’m putting the full set under the cut because they are necessary to see. Because he decided to dress as his Dream SMP character (for context he was briefly the king of the server, until he realised it was more of figurehead role to Dream)

So yeah I need one of those as an icon but I dunno which one hmmm. And I hate that icon slots are so damn annoying.

Current Music: CG5 - I See A Dreamer

So today might be a slight sign of improvement. This morning pokemon diamond came (though the freebies are held up which is a little annoying) so I’ve played some of that this afternoon. I’ve just got to the first gym so might do that before bed (I was gonna go on ESO but the servers seem down for maintenance, boo!)

I also got my first assessment marked. It actually came through yesterday but my energy wasn’t there to check it, especially since I felt I’d done badly. This was confirmed in my head when I had an email from my tutor with the subject ‘checking in’ but then it said I’d ep done well so I checked and… it was 88. I dunno how but, yeah.

Last night before taskmaster mum’s friend from the library called and offered to take us with her to town on a trip Monday so I guess we’re doing that then. It means going early which is a little annoying but…

But yeah I guess that was better than the morning started and the loud sounds from outside.

So since I’ve seen a few people mention Christmas stuff, I figured I may as well do a semi one here. So if anyone wants a Christmas fic lemme know here.

If anyone feels like writing one, here’s a few of my current rotating list of hyperfixations, pick some.
