this is probably the hottest take i have ever put on this website.
the beatles mainly just gentrified ideas to be palatable to audiences. skyrim did much the same.
if you look at any musical concept the beatles did, you can p much find another artist doing it better. they got lucky to be in public imagination and placed themselves there via marketing. ditto skyrim (and its rereleases ad nauseum).
honestly, skyrim and the beatles hold the same place for me
historically significant... ...not because they were actually doing anything unique, all the elements were being done by someone else better at the time, but worked mostly as an aggregate for concepts and was there at the right time with a good marketing department, so that everyone ascribes this to them and not their inspirations lmfao
"oh i'll just take a quick look around breath of the wild" i said yesterday. then it was 2:30 am. whoops
botw is, i think, the game that skyrim wanted to be. i'm not gonna knock it too hard because skyrim was, i think, historically important in many ways. i've just never really had the experience of being... really lost in it, if that makes sense. at some point it always seemed like bland drudgework to me.
botw, tho? botw done got me, lol
and for some reason i disagreed totally. the fountain did not aesthetically go with the surroundings at all, but it was being well maintained and had been preserved well, and people got to come appreciate it, even if they were coming in to bowl. it even had (in the basin part of the fountain) a bunch of coins in it - but they were all tokens from the little arcade.
then we went glow-in-the-dark bowling so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ dunno what THAT means lmfao
i had a dream a couple nights ago with one detail i keep remembering and i am puzzled why
namely, i was part of a group going bowling and another person got really upset about a fountain in the bowling alley lobby. the fountain was made as a kind of showpiece for a bronze sculpting company in like 1910 or so, full art nouveau, showing Echo and Narcissus, and was eventually sold off to this bowling alley. the other member of the group kept being mad about how it should be in a museum, etc.

i appreciate that my body is no longer going for marathon periods, however, i now have a couple days of light flow coupled with tons of clots
which ends up just with little tiny clots sticking up the place
being itchy
and irritating
