Random Thoughts/Things?

I wasn’t really sure what to call this thread, but I’ve had this idea floating around in my head for awhile now. Basically, anyone can post anything here. Any random thought you have, any random thing that happens to you, any random question that pops into your mind. Have fun, and don’t be afraid to be random.

Today is my final test for a math class I take outside of school. It covers pretty much everything we've learned this year. I'm really nervous

@Admins. WHen cricket gets an update, if we are then able to post GIFs and or Animations...would I be allowed to post animations of my AEs, with a voice over by me? Because I can do voices for them, but not all of them sound exactly like my normal voice....sooo..I'm just wondering. Because the maker space at my library, that's opening soon, will have audio recording software...so I'd like to voice over animations. But I won't waste my time trying to upload an animation (if we're able to) with my voice if y'all aren't okay with it. (And of course, anything I say would be CB approprite)

 

The CB makeover is still in the planning stages. We don't yet know if
users will be able to post gifs, but it's unlikely that we'd post
voiceovers. - Admin

Guys guys guys, this is going to be such a good day. After school I'm hanging out with my friend/crush and my rollerblades are finally coming this afternoon. (However, it must be noted that my Lit Day Predictions are infamous for their inaccuracy, so I'll update with the actual happenings later.)

okay so it was nice to see someone online acknowledge that a certain "cringey" songwriter is mostly just hated on because their music is mostly listened to by mentally ill queer kids, but... they could have done that without being like "it's still not really good but let people like cringey stuff and be happy!" and "it's what all indie pop sounds like!". like am i the only person who thinks their music is legitimately good? Like, theres actual variation, lyrics are very good, overall it's just... good... and frankly it's the only indie pop i actually like. (nothing against indie pop as a genre, and i can say that for most genres - especially modern music tends to be very repetitive, no variation, just repetition) idk but i really like their music... and i legitimately don't know why people hate it so much. i mean granted a lot of the songs that got popular are frankly not the best ones but still, they're not really bad. certainly not enough to deserve the pure amount of vitriol they get online. this bothers me far more than it should but i just legitimately don't get what's so awful about the music. i just don't. like i just. i'm even a musican if it matters. i practice at 2-4 hours a day (averaging more like 3-4, when i'm not sick), i do tons of camps and orchestras, i even write music, i analyze it a ton. and i legitimately think that their music is better than a lot of less hated-on people. (not hating on the less hated-on people myself though) also people sometimes criticize it for being childish, god forbid a literal child write childish music (they're not a kid anymore but there's still a lot of references to childhood since it seems like theirs had a big effect on them and they're just not that far away from being a kid anyway but they were a literal kid when they wrote a lot of it)

i'm am far too upset about this but - whyyy is there so much vitriol over this person, to the point where i'm too ashamed of liking them to actually say their name?? 

idk why i'm posting this but it's been making me way too upset for way too long.

Okay so first of all that does sound horrible and you definitely have a right to be angry about that!! I honestly don't know why people do half the things they do anyway... I mean, if something's good, it's good (ofc, before, I never gave Taylor Swift much of a chance because if I did, I was scared I'd suddenly turn into a Swiftie and become like everyone at my school who is OBSESSED and stuff, but for once I'm only a halfway-hypocrite because recently I've given her more open-mindedness, and while I'm still not a Swiftie, she does have some to lots of good songs... I'm rambling/a better word I'm too lazy to think of rn)! Also, what people don't listen to it and say it's bad just because it's listened to by mentally ill queer kids?!?? That's really terrible!!!! That doesn't even make sense!!! I don't really know what else to say... if you feel comfortable with it, I can give the music a listen and tell you my honest opinion about it I guess?

I don't know if this post says anything not the way I wanted to say it because at the moment my social battery is like out and I just want to curl up with my stuffies and drink apple juice and write my story, so if so, sorry. But yeah :/
