Hello! Sorry for the late post in the day, nothing really happened yesterday but I started Bubblegum Crisis! Great animation, show, and soundtrack. The triple threat. I wasn't really all that interested until Priss, the main character spoke her first lines which was "I hate the police". The way she said it drew me in more than I already was and it showed as the rest of the episodes I watched were great. Absolutely wonderful watch. One of my favorite rappers of all time, JPEGMAFIA, is a huge fan of the show, he has a Knight Sabers tattoo and some clips of the show were included in movie for The Ghost Pop Tape (great watch, although it comes with a warning as 90% of it is pornography, makes sense considering the album). It's interesting that the show is a time capsule of that era by the way it looks, the music used, and how it sounds. Genuinely great stuff too although very very dated. That's really all I have to say on the subject of this show though, now what else... hmmm.... Oh! Yeah I didn't write a blog post yesterday mostly because I didn't feel like it. Unless I did? I don't remember, ever since covid started I have lost complete track of time, something that happened last week feels like a month ago, but that's probably not due to covid? I heard a few times that things go quickly when you get older and I wonder if that holds true, but considering days feel so much quicker it's probably true, by the time I turn 20 days are gonna by in what feels like 3 minutes, hopefully. I'm so sorry, it's hard to write about nothing essentially, especially in terms of what I've written before, it's kind of hard to keep track of everything happening in great detail as I like to write and ramble about random things happening. I don't know how people do it so frequently, or did since blogging seems like it's dying out. I hope I'm ignorant about that and it's still common, the one time I'm hoping I'm being ignorant about something. Something interesting came to my mind this morning about originality, I want to make music so bad but the music I wanna make, or see myself making is almost exactly like the style of Haunted Mound (witch house collective headed by Californian producer/rapper Sematary) since it's a style I gravitate too most, but recently I started to think of my writing and in the scheme of things, I don't wanna do it. I wanna be creative with my writing and like, use words and all that. No disrespect to the Haunted Mound I love their music until the end of time but I don't really want to do that stuff, which is making music that's like semi-horrorcore. It's not that I'm against it but it's more of the fact that it's hard to come up with something original in terms of those sounds, that's why there's not many musicians making that type of noise, they perfected it and no one else has yet. In the off chance it does happen to be perfected, you bet I'm hopping on it, albeit with some type of twist. Although the music I truly wanna make in more in terms of someone like JPEGMAFIA, who's production and lyrics I love the most out of anyone, and gravitate towards in comparison to anyone else. If it's not obvious, experimental hip-hop is my absolute favorite type of music, so it comes to no surprise that I want my first endeavor in music to be that type of music. The only real fallback is that I'm a writer, and I'm much more interested in visuals more than the music sometimes, I don't think I've stated this before but I absolutely love visuals, video editing, cameras, sound design, if it has anything to do with making videos, I'm on it immediately, and being a writer elevates that because (of course) I wanna be a director/writer, something like Kevin Smith pre Chasing Amy, I love those type of movies so I would love to make a movie or a television show (more preferable) that's similar to that, I've always wanted to make this show since the summer of 2019 about these two dudes who live with each other (well, roommates) who just do random stuff and what happens around them is a direct response to what they've done. The concept of "two roommates do things" is such a bland concept but you could do so much with it, I want it to be good though, like the two main characters play off of each other and work well together in situations they put themselves in (which ideally would go beyond the walls of their apartment). I've been so obsessed with this concept since I came up with it, and I plan on starting work on it this summer, I have a name and episode count in mind, the name Roomies (basic, I know) and the episode count being something like 50-70 episodes and I plan to write all of them, the appeal of the show is that it's self made, to prove the point you can make something great with literally 0 budget. I want the show to be shot in the style of Arrested Development (I don't know what it's called exactly but I'm obsessed with that type of set up, hand held stuff is the absolute best). I'd rather do all of that then make music, and plus I'm making pretty good progress as a writer, although I don't write stuff much, BUT I am getting published somewhere, so that's fun isn't it. Another thing I have thought of before is going back to old habits, it's not a deeper thought then "oh I'm going back to this so now I am sad" mindset, which in theory is probably true as I did feel bad earlier but as of now I feel good, I'm happy with my friends and everything else, I'm just living the life how I want to and nothing's stopping me, it's a free country after all, so I'm going to act like it is, even though my opinions on this country isn't exactly ideal as there are no positive opinions, but that's what the American dream is right? Doing what you want and standing for what you believe in? That's the American Dream to me, if you do that than you're truly living, and dare I say a real American. I'm gonna stop here on that subject because I genuinely don't know a single thing about it other than my own perception and whatever Hunter S. Thompson was writing about in Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas, one of the best books (and adaptation) of all time. I probably shouldn't be living the words of an alcoholic druggie who treated people badly but in my defense, he did what he wanted and lived by it, you have to respect it, I certainly do. It's also due to the fact gonzo journalism is exactly what I wanna write, a stream of conscious view of the world through the eyes of drunks and people on drugs really appeal to me greatly, so of course I wanna write like that, but I have developed my own sense of writing over time, so that's good as well, I can definitely implement the two if I tried, I plan on writing my first book about a trip I took to Florida earlier this year but greatly exaggerate it and mold it to its own original story while interjecting stories and themes from my personal life in the eyes of someone else. I'm like, 90% sure I go back down there this summer too but I don't think so, if that's the case I'll have much more to talk about. Oh! I also plan on starting Star Wars soon, like tonight soon, although I hate Disney and what it stands for, Star Wars looks seriously interesting and the people around me love it so I might as well. Forgive me father as I have sinned. Man, another game I haven't played in a bit came to mind, Postal 2. My love for that game goes beyond anything as it's literally just a sandbox to do literally anything you'd want to, the humor isn't quite what I agree with, but the gameplay is so fun it doesn't matter. Given the chance I will for sure make a long blog post about it and everything I love about it, it's going to be super long though. I've exhausted my brain from too much writing about random things, so I'll end it off here. I'm just happy to know I have so much in me to write about really anything in the world for this long, as long as it interests me of course, I'll catch you guys in the next post, which will possibly be Monday as I don't wanna write on weekends, but also next week is going to be very scattered as testing starts for me so my brain is gonna be absolutely mushed. It's whatever though, I'll survive. See you guys in the next post.

P.S. Pizza Hut has the same deal as I mentioned next week but instead of wings and bread sticks it's 3 pizzas!! They can't keep getting away with these deals, you legit can't get out pizza them, and if you try they will send a hitman after you. I promise to you guys I am not sponsored by them.

P.P.S. I've also noticed I've had a new uptick in making my friends watching things? I've had a friend who just finished Gunsmith Cats (great OVA by the way, wonderful animation and characters) and got another one to watch Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas, which is my favorite movie of all time if you weren't aware already. Not that it's a bad thing that's happening, just very curious it's happening all of a sudden. I'm definitely more influential than I think, hopefully it doesn't affect my ego! It absolutely will by the way just to clarify, I do have an ego.
