I’m obsessed with what Disney has been and become. Like I am enamored with the history, the lore, everything about it (I have watched so many defunctland videos it's disturbing.) Firstly, I can’t believe Disney began with a man drawing something and now Disneyland alone brings in like 11 million dollars a day. It’s genuinely unbelievable. And I think it’s so sweet how people get connected to these drawn characters through storytelling, through seeing little parts of themselves in it, it’s just beautiful. It’s so crazy what art in collaboration with capitalism can do, and the empire astounds, boggles, disturbs and inspires me beyond. BESIDES all of this stuff, I love Disneyland as it’s like the one place that is so overstimulating to me and immersive that I literally can go there and not think about anything else. It’s like the most wholesome form of escapism and it means so much to me being able to do that, just pull up to Disneyland and disassociate into like a cartoon from the 1940s. I love the early Hollywood vibes and lore associated with it, the earliest cartoons are my favorite. Ok one more thing. ALSO the dark underbelly is so interesting to me. Like how anything that is advertising being front-facing ideal and perfect is fucked up (obviously.) Also my EP cover was shot there

digitized, truncated versions of the classic movies, with added games and language learning

some of these have like a weird amount of effort put into them. like good ui, good interpretations of the music, good sounds effects, simple but cute games. they'll even have weird little features that just make it feel interesting. for example, in the little mermaid one, ariel, sebastian and URSULA are the narrators, but they're also just like...there. the whole time. meaning you get ursula's color commentary throughout the whole thing AND SHE'S SUCH A BITCH I LOVE IT (talking about eric: "Yes, he's a very handsome man, if you're into that sort of thing" PFFF)
like i'm gonna go out on a limb and say it: the best version of 101 dalmatians is the disney interactive storybook aND NO IM NOT KIDDING. it has all the best elements of the cartoon and the live action weirdly enough (believe it or not, the idea that cruella was a fashion designer only became a thing in the glenn close movies! in the original she's just a rich lady that likes fur. ALSO in the original she's anita's "school friend," but it just makes so much more sense for their dynamic that anita's her employee), the sketchy style lends itself well to the digitized version, it has elements that make sense for this specific version (in the movie roger's a struggling musician, in the game he's a struggling video game designer! AND YOU GET TO PLAY HIS GAME!!), it trims the fat, THERE'S ADDED SONGS THERE WERE NO SONGS IN THE MOVIE AND THE ADDED SONGS FUCKING SLAP BITCH I KNOW EVERY WORD OF THE TWILIGHT BARK TO👏THIS👏DAY👏
n ee waze yeah these are fun. i'm pretty sure all of them are available on youtube in full, i like to throw them on to go to sleep sometimes. give 'em a gander if you want to feel a nostalgia gut punch with the force of 1000 suns

I can legitimately say I would not be the same person I am now if I had never seen Amelie. there's this episode of This American Life called "Spark Bird" - the bird that first sparks someone's interest in/obsession with birding - well I like to refer to "spark movies" and Amelie was it for me. it showed me what cinema could do. I had never seen a movie that encapsulated my worldview but also how I wanted the world to be and look. seeing it as a teenager probably had a lot to do with it - the longing, the quirkiness - but the visual/artist part of me realized movies could do and express things I never thought possible and never had words or images for. it was like a floodgate opened, it was my gateway drug to more movies, art, music, and the way I experienced myself in the world. it was so formative for me it's like my brain soaked it up and I can't help that it's always there permeating everything with more whimsy, flair, and color ✨

There’s this kind of liminal genre of music girls are making that I’m obsessed with where the vocals most of the time aren’t super clear and it’s like washy and fluid vibes (think Highway - Elusin, halo3 - 8485, anything Grouper.) This is music for hot esoteric baddies to walk around drug stores to and I am obsessed with it. I kind of feel like I live in this space terminally of like feminine joy and anxiety simultaneously, and I feel like that line between those two things is where I write music from (although it doesn’t sound the same as I have an addiction to pop culture)

I am not engaged but I have this vision of being engaged where you’re like on an airplane riding in business class and you’re in a brown mohair sweater and have a delicate, elegant, epic engagement ring on your finger and maybe you’re sipping like champagne? I don’t know, this is my deepest fantasy you are accessing right at your fingertips….I want it so bad????

I feel like I really like when things are discounted, not only because I save money, but because I like to be reminded that value is inherently fluid, flexible and not stagnated at all. Everything in life is a product of our perception of it, our understanding of what something's value is changes the thing completely. I love that. That being said, SSENSE sale sections takes all my money for real
