I'm Angry.

I'm angry.

I didn't get to share my work today. We only got through two presentations because my professor went on rambles after each one. And we're going in a very specific order based on the textbook, so I'm dead last.

I was up until 3:30 a.m. working on this thing. I legit wanted to punch something.

I'm supposed to go on Monday now, but I doubt that's happening if my professor decides to talk for such a long time again. I'm thinking I'll get to go on Wednesday at best. So you know what?

I'm just going to give you guys the slides now. If I can't present my work to my actual class, I can at least share it with fellow turtle fans.

Go wild. Just be sure to give credit if you decide to share/cite/etc. it for anything; otherwise, no major rules/restrictions. Have fun.

I'm analyzing Donnie using five different theories of personality in my psychology class tomorrow--and I get to present my work. Wish me luck.

No one is safe from the turtles. All shall fall victim to my obsessions one way or another, even complete strangers. In Donnie's own brilliant words, evil laugh.

Maybe I'll share the slides afterward if I can figure out how.

So.

Two of my friends and I are pretty big Disney Villain fans in general, but we really like playing Villainous together. We don't always know what characters we want to play as, though. Especially me. I'm super indecisive. There's always the random number generator to help out, and the Villainous Picker website (which is amazing, please check it out if you want an easier way to pick your character) has been of use lately, but we once took a more creative approach.

We took a personality quiz.

We each took the quiz on Disney News (previously known as Oh My Disney) one night and decided to play as our respective results. I got Captain Hook (aka best villain who deserves way more respect from the big mouse), and my friends got Dr. Facilier and Hades. Naturally, I've come to associate each of us with our characters because I'm a weirdo like that.

Then we had an...interesting conversation during one of our games. I thought it would be fun to draw the villains themselves having it. I didn't bother writing dialogue on the paper for the sake of cleanliness, but I will provide captions below the image.

Anyway, here. (Please pardon the lighting on Dr. Facilier. It makes him look paler than I actually shaded him.)

Dr. Facilier: Please...stop. Just stop. Stop talking. Don't ruin this for me.

Hades: What? All I'm saying is, if Scar's pride is like any other, Simba and Nala are cousins.

Captain Hook: How did we even get to this point...?! I thought we were talking about that "Twisted Wonderland" game they didn't bother to include me in!

I just finished the slides, and man...

Freud was weird.

I'm happy with how everything turned out, and I had a ton of fun picking out various pictures of Donnie for each of the slides, but

Want to search up ROTTMNT drawing references on Pinterest but usually end up seeing horrifying t-c*st?

Report.

Report them all.

Sadly, they don’t have a report button for inc*st related topics.

If there’s nothing graphic on it, report that it’s misleading information, spam, or a conspiracy theory. Anything to get rid of it.

For my friend, whose eyes desperately need bleach.

A Small Mystery

So, there's this Friday Night Funkin' Heathers mod that blew up a while ago, and someone made a Doki Doki Literature Club-themed cover of the Candy Store remix. Here it is if you're curious (but be sure to check out the original, too!).

What's so mysterious about this? To me, it's the vocal samples. I really, really think Vocaloids were used here, but aside from Sayori, I'm not confident about which ones they could be. Here are my best guesses:

Monika: Megurine Luka. Her clips seem to fall in the mezzo soprano range, and Luka was the first Vocaloid in that range who came to mind. I also considered MEIKO, but the clips used here don't have MEIKO's distinct, metallic, somewhat nasal tone.

Sayori: Hatsune Miku. Again, this is the only one I'm really sure of. Her clips have a lot of the same qualities as Miku's voice (i.e., vowel pronunciations and emphasis).

Natsuki: Kagamine Rin or Otomachi Una. Natsuki and Yuri only sing during the final chorus, and they don't have solos; it's difficult to know which clips go to which character. I will be assuming that the higher ones go to Natsuki. In this case, Natsuki's clips are even higher-pitched than Sayori's. Rin and Una are two of the most popular Vocaloids who fit the bill, though there are several more out there.

Yuri: GUMI. It's basically impossible to tell since the lowest clips really blend in during that final chorus, but I'm just going to throw this guess out there. GUMI's my favorite, anyway.

Anyone with sharper hearing or better knowledge of the video, do you have unique insight into this? Were other synths used that I hadn't considered (UTAU, Cevio, SynthV, etc.)? Are these non-vocal synths, rendering me completely off-base? I'm dying to know!!

The results are in!

And... I'm not surprised that Candy Store won. It's THE song of the entire musical. Pleasantly surprised by Dead Girl Walking coming in second, though, especially by such a close margin! (Also glad that Kindergarten Boyfriend has some fans)

But NO ONE voted for Big Fun? Or Shine a Light?? OR BEAUTIFUL??? I mean, I get it. People have their own tastes. I'm just a little shocked by how different my tastes seem to be from all of yours. ^^"

My mom and I are going to see a performance of Dear Evan Hansen tomorrow as an early birthday gift to me. I don't really know what to expect, but I'm looking forward to it!

This has kind of put me in a musical theater mood, but the only musicals I've seen in any capacity are The Phantom of the Opera (a stage performance streamed on Netflix a while back; I don't know if it's still there) and Heathers (found the off-Broadway on YouTube). So yeah, I'm looking forward to my first live musical!

I've been watching videos about Heathers left and right, as well as listening to the soundtrack. I should do the same for Phantom, but I digress. Back to Heathers for now. I want to know:

My personal favorites are Candy Store and Big Fun. They're just so dramatic and fun! (But My Dead Gay Son is also really funny. I would have included it, but...poll limit. :/)
