I Took A Break From Love Nikki For A Year Or Two Maybe And Consequently Forgot All Of The Lore, And It's

has anyone made like, a Chart of what genres are in each of sleep tokens songs? i'd make one myself but i only know rock/metal terminology, and barely.

Once a little boy went to school. One morning The teacher said: “Today we are going to make a picture.” “Good!” thought the little boy. He liked to make all kinds; Lions and tigers, Chickens and cows, Trains and boats; And he took out his box of crayons And began to draw.

But the teacher said, “Wait!” “It is not time to begin!” And she waited until everyone looked ready. “Now,” said the teacher, “We are going to make flowers.” “Good!” thought the little boy, He liked to make beautiful ones With his pink and orange and blue crayons. But the teacher said “Wait!” “And I will show you how.” And it was red, with a green stem. “There,” said the teacher, “Now you may begin.”

The little boy looked at his teacher’s flower Then he looked at his own flower. He liked his flower better than the teacher’s But he did not say this. He just turned his paper over, And made a flower like the teacher’s. It was red, with a green stem.

On another day The teacher said: “Today we are going to make something with clay.” “Good!” thought the little boy; He liked clay. He could make all kinds of things with clay: Snakes and snowmen, Elephants and mice, Cars and trucks And he began to pull and pinch His ball of clay.

But the teacher said, “Wait!” “It is not time to begin!” And she waited until everyone looked ready. “Now,” said the teacher, “We are going to make a dish.” “Good!” thought the little boy, He liked to make dishes. And he began to make some That were all shapes and sizes.

But the teacher said “Wait!” “And I will show you how.” And she showed everyone how to make One deep dish. “There,” said the teacher, “Now you may begin.”

The little boy looked at the teacher’s dish; Then he looked at his own. He liked his better than the teacher’s But he did not say this. He just rolled his clay into a big ball again And made a dish like the teacher’s. It was a deep dish.

And pretty soon The little boy learned to wait, And to watch And to make things just like the teacher. And pretty soon He didn’t make things of his own anymore.

Then it happened That the little boy and his family Moved to another house, In another city, And the little boy Had to go to another school.

The teacher said: “Today we are going to make a picture.” “Good!” thought the little boy. And he waited for the teacher To tell what to do. But the teacher didn’t say anything. She just walked around the room.

When she came to the little boy She asked, “Don’t you want to make a picture?” “Yes,” said the little boy. “What are we going to make?” “I don’t know until you make it,” said the teacher. “How shall I make it?” asked the little boy. “Why, anyway you like,” said the teacher. “And any color?” asked the little boy. “Any color,” said the teacher. And he began to make a red flower with a green stem.

As someone with both visual snow and aphantasia. I kind of wonder if one might have an affect on the other.

Sometimes I'm able to "see" some things? but I can't control when that is. usually if I'm dreaming/day dreaming i get a hint. But i'm a very very Visual person. my memory is very visual, my creative process is very visual, my imagination is very visual. but i can't actually see shit in my mind.

so i'm wondering if maybe the little i do get to "see" could be to do with the visual snow? seeing patterns and shapes in that? they're both very interesting parts of my vision so i was wondering if there was any overlap between them in my experience.

idk i'd love to here if anyone else is in the same shoes! It's so cool that both of these things are being talked about more and we can learn from eachother!

Hey, I saw your visual snow syndrome post and I thought I'd share a cool website where you can simulate what it looks like! You can adjust the size of the grain, the density, and the speed. And there are different images to choose from (great for night vs day comparison)

Ooooo I'll have to check it out

Look, being a necromancer isn't difficult

You pick a target, follow your ritual book as closely as possible, and remember not to revive anything you can't put down

It's that easy

(Undead Dragon Roar)

See that? I have to wait for a hero to come and deal with that because I cannot rekill that dragon

nono no you get it you Get It ! same band different fonts ! (particularly starsets love songs) where starset has the incomprehensible beauty and scale of space, sleep token have the incomprehensible beauty i assume one might find in religion, or a similar level of devotion. Like they are so small and the emotions are so big, you have to draw comparisons to astral bodies and dieties to properly convey it, and the loneliness that comes with it. A sort of reverence and devotion for something out of your reach.

I think thematically they have similarities, aesthetically they clash a little, but it could most certainly still slap.

hear me out, but i think a collab between sleep token and starset would absolutely fuckin SLAP

they have similar lyric styles (in my opinion), both of them are almost poetic in nature, and they both have that lovely touch of devotion, longing, self-loathing, and anger throughout their songs

i dunno, just a totally random thought i had but i think it would be such a cool idea!! plus, both sleep token and starset deserve so much more attention 😭

Go on then Icarus, take your turn.

I had a dream in which there was technology in the world that allowed anyone to create a film according to their desire. And I wanted a film where they would be happy.
