i can't help it. is just so good. it encompasses so many emotions. so many possum-ey emotions. , too. how am i supposed to properly express myself without though? i have been shown the way, and the way is yelling possums, and i am not going to divert from my scream at own ass path. 🍑

reason i am most likely to be banned from this website:

so to complete my #starwars posting for tonight, and bring it around to the holidays y'all, please enjoy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVJzibVS2YM this

like how do you work that into your home decor exactly. "so here's the snowglobe i got on vacation, and here's the little statue that my aunt got me a couple christmases back, and here's THE COMMISSION OF MY AU DARTH VADER,"

or maybe that's the whole thing... like some sort of spider, i draw them in with cute shabby chic design, and then as they're admiring the latest from target the doors close and IT'S TOO LATE, EMPIRE STRIKES BACK IS PLAYING, IT'S VADER TIME,

i have the sketch minttuu did for me and i should frame it and hang it somewhere but like

idk if i can take grumpy old man au vader just judging me from somewhere

and the newest, by hoiist, who really has done an absolutely gorgeous job drawing this grumpy old asshole who occupies far too many of my braincells

to really make myself at home i need to do a spam of some commissions, so.

please look at my shitty au #darthvader from my fanfic Masquerade that i am too invested in.

commissions by, in order: blinkingkills, jakface, minttuu, takens

people can apply to use the word "thicc" after writing me an essay demonstrating that their character would not be able to fit in any straight sizes, top or bottom, at abercrombie and fitch circa 2013 ( https://www.huffpost.com/entry/abercrombie-plus-size_b_4320704 ). then and only then can they use a word meant to celebrate plus-size beauty to describe their characters

i'm banning the word "thicc". the internet is allowed to have it back after they demonstrate knowledge that fat deposits places other than the thighs and possibly the tits, and learn to appreciate a soft tum. but until that point it is cancelled

"so thicc~"

because this is by far the best sexy krampus card (yes there are more apparently it was like a fad for naughty postcards in the 60s and 70s in germany) and i am DESPERATE to know what the hell it says and what scenario is going on here

also dad bod krampus and i'm here for that for sure

anyway, it crimmas, and y'all know what that means: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFpctGEGSjM IN THE NAME OF OUR LADY OF DOMESTIC HISTORY RUTH GOODMAN AMEN!!!!

so the songs that follow in this tradition end up a bit edgier by default, and it may be why the ones that still stick around seem so drastically out of place. they are the outliers when there has been enormous pressure to make christmas a holiday light, bright, clean, and only full of good feelings - instead of recognizing the christian holiday comes with a recognition of immense sacrifice.

i also don't consider it a coincidence that a lot of these songs that seem more violent or macabre or sad have stuck around as 'peasant songs', or traditional country folk tunes. trying to make the message more upper-class is i think a similar sort of pressure to only sing about stuff that's nice and sweet and pleasant.

however as much as i think these carols are much more meaningful, they're also less universal, being explicitly christian, and they're a LOT less easy to market.

a recognition of the grisly and macabre nature of christmas celebrations is not good business when you are trying to get everyone to accept a present-giving happy feast day.

i don't think it's exactly a coincidence either that many other hymns are explicitly political, like the canticle of the turning - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXyGh1MW2OM which tldrs to "hey rich people, GOD IS COMING YOU'RE ABOUT TO GET FUCKED AHAHAHAHA"
