10.30.23 Doritos & Fritos - 100 gecs

i fell in love with this song after discovering this animation of my favourite homestuck pairing! i don't actually like 100 gecs that much (unsurprisingly), but i've managed to pavlov myself into assosciating this song with two fictional characters that give me serotonin. i'd love to draw something similar inspired by the original video.

Cheetos, Doritos and Fritos, mosquitos
I'm eating burritos with Danny Devito
Jeez Louise, I'm weak in the knees
I'm joining the circus, I'm going berserk-us
At 7/11 I'm drinking a beverage
I'm lying to strangers, I'm looking for danger
I'm chewing bazooka, I'm swimming to Cuba
Don't look at Medusa, she'll turn you to stone



10.29.23 Bullet With Butterfly Wings - The Smashing Pumpkins

when i asked my friend to make me a playlist inspired by the grubbles, he included this song. the lyrics heavily remind me of xefros's character, as well as his relationship with his moirail, dammek. with him being ragebound and a rustblood, i feel like the chorus completely represents what it's like for him at the bottom of the caste, working alongside the rebellion under dammek's orders.

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

this is where i track songs that i've been listening on loop lately! i'm not really an album listener, so i tend to just repeat songs i really like over and over. i used to track it on last.fm, but i suppose tracking it manually would be more accurate. plus, i can add extra commentary on why i've looped them so much :)
