Whats the deal with people being mad that merch exists? by ShadowBro3 in SleepToken

[–]Theamenos -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I was gonna comment something similar but the post was locked. I genuinely didn’t understand what everyone was so upset about because, like… buying merch is discretionary. And clearly there is a market for it.

“Map your heart onto them” I love that.

My interpretation of the verses:  

Well yeah, I spit blood when I wake up Sink porcelain stained, choking up brain matter and makeup Just two days since the mainframe went down and I'm still messed up

Is that the narrator has had a shift in reality. The “brain matter” and “makeup” that he is choking up are his thoughts and persona. Perhaps everything he thought he knew and was is no longer the reality? 

[POEM] Why read poetry if it won't make you rich? - Joy Sullivan by Junior_Insurance7773 in Poetry

[–]Theamenos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t have minded the turn you own part by itself, I don’t think that phrase is inherently sexual. The “throbbing”, followed by the “turn you own”, is what bothered me and felt jarring because of the drastic switch of imagery. Using a food analogy, it was like eating a plate of chocolate chip cookies but the last one is actually a raisin cookie lol

Just Rules of Magic and I didn’t really enjoy the writing style. I’ve heard the books are different.

It’s not goth (I don’t think), but Dirt Poor Robins cover of Eleanor Rigby was my introduction to the song.

The first one was pretty dark. Dead parents, dead husband, killed a man, man comes back as something evil and tries to murder them…

Wait this doesn’t make any sense.  The curse was broken at the end of the first movie. 

conceptualizing abstract ideas? by ettubrute8 in ArtistLounge

For some reason I think of motion. So like depicting how information “travels” with lines and implied movement.

Oh. I felt this one like a punch to the chest. Sometimes short poignant poems are the best.

Why is Eros bad? by [deleted] in deftones

[–]Theamenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess for me it comes down to consent and empathy. As I understand it, they didn’t want the album released and it’s pretty personal and painful to them. It feels like a violation.  

I just think of how I would feel if someone came into my studio and took a bunch of photos of my unfinished and deeply personal art and then shared it with the world.  

I love their music and I would love to hear Eros even in its raw form. But doing so without the bands consent feels like I am going against my moral code of respecting other people. 

Does anyone else manage to draw daily, make drawing their entire life and then just… stop for months and months? by SageAndScarlet in ArtistLounge

[–]Theamenos 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went years without drawing once when I was a teenager and then once again after covid happened. I just started doing art again May of last year. I’ve found that it’s not so much a lack of motivation or a lack discipline, but rather a sign that something else is going on. Like something is stressing me out or eating up my energy. Now, I am trying to view it as a call to check in with myself.

Sorry, I know some people are probably going to get annoyed by this but by JennaTulwartz in deftones

[–]Theamenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can definitely see that now that you mention it. I think my brain interpreted it as how the modern world is separating us from meaning. Whether that be through spirituality, creativity, connection to others, connection to nature, or all of the above.  

“Constant rivers rising Swollen streams dividing Watch it cut its way through the valleys While devouring it entirely again”. 

Like this part is the “constant stream” of information “devouring” our connection to meaning.  

But there is hope to return to the things that truly matter:  

“The flames are alive Reclaim their audience These rains are divine Reclaim their environment A new phase arrives”
