honestly ironic that it was a folie 8 ball on the night they didnt play any mania

i have said this before but mania is currently undergoing the same process folie has been undergoing the last few years, it’s just earlier in its timeline. maybe it’s not been entirely the reaction and treatment from the fans and more the personal frustration and emotions associated with the album for the band, but the fan reactions could possibly play a part in why they’re reluctant to play these songs compared to the other albums.

folie underwent this same process - after the break patrick didn’t even want to play the songs from it, and it’s only in the last few months that they’ve added them back with any confidence. I’m hopeful that the reaction from the fans to these songs being integrated into the setlist encourages the band that they can do this with mania too. they have said multiple times that they are proud of mania and they stand by what they did on that album, and i hope in tours to come they can play songs from mania and not worry about how fans will react (and also have grown from this tour cycle enough to be confident and comfortable as well).

also if i see a single person saying theyre happy mania got cut or anything negative at all it’s fucking on sight

btw now the only songs off folie that have Never been played live before are the (shipped) gold standard and wams. and there is no doubt in my mind that by the end of this tour every folie song will have been played. after the band had such a horrible experience touring folie that stopped them from playing those songs for over a decade. almost every song has been played now. if u even care

this is kim . she loves her personal space. this is trini. she also loves kim's personal space

I don’t have my glasses on and at first all I saw was a heart of them. Now I can’t unsee it.

I'm loving this new trend of people going to zoos and participating in animal enrichment. We use to observe large exotic animals for our entertainment, but the fact is that we are now trying to make ourselves equally as entertaining for them. It's interactive, completely parpicipatory and I would argue that eventually someone's gonna come up with something new enough that it expland ethologists understanding about how some animals think, problem solve, communicate and feel and I think its fantastic.

Human: play?

Aquatic creature from an entirely different branch of the animal tree: play!

thinking about how old umbrellas are

sometimes a design is so suited to purpose that it lasts for thousands of years

could travel back in time and buy a perfectly good umbrella. could show them my umbrella and they’d recognize what it was.

no matter when we lived we’ve all been subject to the sky

girl i know i love old boats and they got into accidents all the time and i wouldnt exactly regard an ocean liner as a not horrifying mode of transport but i just remembered we used to have those fucking balloon airships. i dont like planes myself but thank god we started making air transport out of shit that wasnt 100% flammable

domt like that

girl they used to catch fire for no reason and kill everyone

THAT WAS ONE TIME

it happened a few times
