@arts bladee lyric

@mute

Fuck your life, make me take mine
Fuck me right, make me hate my life
Make me cry, make me hate my…
Make me cry, make me hate myself

@arts wrist cry. wrist cry. wrist cry, wrist cry. wrist cry.

@mute for u, mute, i'd get blood on my star

@mute still struggling to wrap my head around someone who wrote lyrics like

Innocent of all things
Innocent of all things
Innocent of all things
Still a second beating of my heart
Cinderella walking
Cinderella walking
In the realm of all things
Stars, do a spin, seraphim

grew a goatee this year. bladee keeps calling himself cinderella that whole album

@arts comment I read: "Shit sounding like bladee and ecco exploring eachothers bodies in the studio, goes hard as fuck tho"

bladee lyrics before falling in love w/ ecco2k:

I'm gonna turn on you I'ma turn on you and everyone you love I might turn on myself Turn on myself and everyone I love I might just party every night And I'm not talking 'bout the club I might just party every night I'm talking about doing drugs

bladee lyrics after falling in love w/ ecco2k:

Endlessly reflecting in your gaze Drop the mirror and it breaks Seven years, seven tears, seven different heavens Blue and black, I chase another shade And I'm transcending the grey To the rainbow in my brain, this array of color Endlessly go over my mistakes Just to find out what it takes To be great, separate, differentiating You hold on to me, the part that stays Makes me grounded in a way, fly away But today I'll go up, I know it

@mute btw @hermit we're talking about the person on the first 'the fool' tarot card i sent in that bunch of tarot cards - a rapper w/ a truly fascinating arc where he did songs about wanting to die for years until suddenly he was doing songs full of like, melted christian mysticism and being a gentle fragile angel girl

@mute @arts Lol is this the rapper in question? Breedable tbh

Man tho I will never understand the appeal Christian imagery and theming have for people, I just won't. Even if I try to animalise my mind to the point that I'm not innately picking apart the symbology ("That's a heiroglyph that meant something like "temple", that's a winged humanoid angel to make the idea of angels more appropriate to people familiar with the Olympian pantheon, that's symbolic of the Trinity so it's fundamentally incomplete without its fourth figure" etc etc) the whole aesthetic of it is just so empty and terrible and cold and awful for me, I try not to thoughtlessly and instinctively use the word "evil" because it's so highly subjective, but it triggers my Evil Alarm hard.

I kinda wonder about what happened to this person (from rats' previous post, they fell in love?) but I'll never get the empty light-bathing, it instinctively makes me recoil.

@hermit @mute

> I'll never get the empty light-bathing, it instinctively makes me recoil.

i say this as a person who compulsively exists in the 'dark', always drawn to be staring into that 'dark': it's kind of a lot of brain-pressure to do that

'empty light-bathing' makes me think more of eg remilia corp, angelicism01, that stuff - a candy-coating around bottomless evil that is so thin that it feels like a joke or something, a mockery of the idea of ever looking for positivity

for bladee i guess it felt actively constructive, right, like here's someone who sang about slitting his wrists for 5 years and now he's suddenly looking at the light and working on crawling out of a pit of despair felt like a good thing. but maybe that says more about marketing and parasocial relationships than it does about anything else

@hermit @mute

> Man tho I will never understand the appeal Christian imagery and theming have for people, I just won't.

i was raised catholic and i honestly find something powerful about like, taking the face off of this thing where i was surrounded by 60+yr small-town conservative normies & noahs arc cartoon vhs tapes... finding the book of judas, dictionaries of angels, merkavah texts describing heaven in ways that read like erowid trip reports before the word "fractal" was invented. i have a problem, like, how exactly do you pick a system of aesthetics when you find value in most things? so i turned the disintegration ray inward at my own past and chose to focus on that

i p much innately reject almost all christian thought i've encountered in the world and i wouldn't have believed i could make this work in any practical sense until i got involved with quakers. fuck anyone who is about to mediate my relationship w 'god', give me a big creaky room where me and 15 other people sit in silent contemplation for an hour

@hermit @mute

> noahs arc cartoon vhs tapes

there's really some important point to be made that w/ darren aronofsky's "noah", an atheist made a truly striking work out of the bible story that has been retold into hackneyed oblivion by the popular christians such that i had forgotten there was an intensity to that story in the first place

@arts @hermit @mute Yoo you might like the Noah movie that came out like 10 years ago with Russel Crowe in it. It's filled with deep lore that was inserted to make the story more grand, without feeling obscene or like a bastardization.
