i cant!!! unlock!! the door!!without!! the key!!

I like to believe the Crab Rave energy build-up is so potent it’s picking up strays.

sometimes i talk about how awful it was to feel trapped by my daily makeup routine and how i couldn’t leave the house without putting on a full face and it played a major role in the misery of my high school experience because i had to spend so much extra time getting ready in the mornings and that followed me into my early 20s as well and it was hell and it was so incredibly liberating to go through the slow and uncomfortable but ultimately essential process of getting my bare face back and having makeup be an optional accessory instead of a mandatory uniform. and the response always tends to be ah yes of course, because of your trans and your masculine. and it’s like aha so close! actually! I think if I ended up being a feminine cis woman I also still would not deserve even a second of that shit! I think trans women and nonbinary people and every human alive should have the option to leave the house without a single cosmetic product ever touching their face! but thanks for playing!

very 🥰🥰🥰 when musicians leave bits in songs where they're saying 'is this thing on?' or 'it's still recording y'know.' chairs scraping, retuning guitars, saying 'let's do that bit again', 'was that take any good?'

the events leading up to our mikey & g situation were kind of funny bc brian schechter couldn’t find my email so he messaged my store page but i didn’t see because @discolizardwizard and i were traveling so he had mcrmyofficial dm me to confirm that we were in london and then get my contact info so he could message me fr saying to call him. and then was like so gerard wants to meet you guys Today

talking to them was so surreal also aside from obvious reasons because we have had all these near encounters with them over the years that we assumed they never think about but as soon as the two of them finished their dj set and walked into the back hallway where we were waiting gerard was like 🫵 you guys were at nc comic con in 2018 wearing suits and skull masks. and mikey was like 🫵 i follow you but the algorithm never shows me your posts

a couple other funny things and then i will shut up for now 1. gerard saying our (my?) work pulls from a bunch of artists from the 80s that nobody references anymore and then rattling off like five names i have never heard of before in my life 2. mikey saying riot fest was the best costume (came up bc i had to describe the alpharetta fit to gerard for them to remember. they have seen some of the comics though) 3. gerard right away asking us what the process is for deathwish and us not being able to get a word in to answer which kills me because in 2018 at nccc we learned thru a game of telephone after giving them the first issue that they were curious about “the background” so ig they have been wondering this stuff for 8 years and still don’t know

I really like the undercurrent vibe that sylvia keeps showing up of her own accord…weird freak of the MOAT confirmed

discovered that wordle is a fantastic way to forget every single word in the entire english language and awaken the part of your brain that still remembers being a primordial amoeba

I'm intensely uncomfortable with the amount of fan engagement we're getting. I'm like a dog that was abandoned as a puppy so now I snap at any human who tries to approach

I liked it better when they pretended not to know what we were saying and we pretended not to know that THEY were pretending not to know what we were saying
