soooo when genres that explicitly challenge existing sonic norms are innovated & then they become popular, does that saturation mean that they aren't transgressive & so they aren't "cool" anymore???? idk.

an ep for the sweet angels who are so precious to me

this definition is off of urban dictionary circa 2018 & there's a lot to unpack...

language is so weird hey?? this ep is an impassioned case for opinions. go forth & reflect! also s/o to the backyardigans ~

it's not cool to be attached to a too rigid version of yourself. it's much cooler to know your boundaries and also be open to changing and growing. take it from a dork.

damp is heavy is stuck is enduring. happy tuesday :)

"is relevance necessary to be 'cool'? are relevance and obscurity antithetical? does obscurity only have 'value' in early resurgence? is the relevant too accessible? is resurgence necessary for relevance?" ...i hope my notes for this episode were illuminating & clarifying rather than convoluted & confusing. enjoy!

what got you hooked?? a dork ~needs to know

it's sad boy seasonal transition and dork talks abt melancholy, angels, & the permeated sadness that haunts their life these days. so basically a feel good autumnal ep for sure.
