carrying my blorbos around like this

When they are born to play their characters

Will: *constantly paranoid, hallucinating visually and audibly, having seizures, and has a job that exposes him to extremely traumatic events that trigger all of these things*

Jack: “best man I’ve got. Absolutely nothing wrong with that guy”

i'm never getting over this part of the livestream experience.

well let's be so fucking for real, i'm never getting over the livestream experience as a whole but like there was always something about this part that made me think.

specifically made me think a LOT about the lore and why this part was included story based. the biggest thing is the fact that it makes me wonder if it's an image of clancy outside the walls singing to whoever could hear. maybe it's just making a mockery of his escape attempts.

like a callback to him and the banditos trying to go somewhere safe and clancy is just playing away on his uke trying to calm them down as they do. or he's alone in trench and he's singing to himself to pass the time and help the quiet.

it's also just a beautiful scene

idk i just..this whole livestream is everything to me im going crazy

This

YALL HES GROWING UP! HE HIT A NEW MILESTONE! HE CAN RIDE A BIKE NOW! NOT EVEN WITH TRAINING WHEELS!

i should have loved you better vs i wanted to better brother better son

tøp always describes stuff in their songs i feel so deeply and couldn't put into words before. but everytime it happens again i am just like :'O how do you know

something really interesting (aka fucking tragic) is how like, this story is going so far

bc overcompensate starts strong on the fighting back (both lore wise and just, life wise ig), and then next semester comes kinda hopeful/hopeless about new beginnings (a common theme with the pilots)

and then theres backslide, which, like its name, is such a big backslide mood wise and theme wise and like, you know personally for tyler's mental health state (i have no idea how to express my thoughts)

like it goes to a darker place, and unlike next semester, it doesn't have any hopeful undertone, it's quite the opposite, questioning whether one deserves help, whether one is worth even the minimun sign of help, even tho he desperately wants to keep fighting and just isn't strong enough to do it anymore

and going from "do you think that nows the time that you should let go?" to outright saying "you should let go" bc its over his head, and just the way he whispers "i don't wanna backslide" in the end, just barely audible

im afraid clancy is gonna be the end of me lmao tyler is really pulling out the pain in this one

(and its also quickly becoming my favorite album despite only 3 songs being out)

throws on a mask that will alter his face.

Ok yeah sure maybe "I wish I never did Saturday" is Tyler regretting the SAI album OR. AND HEAR ME OUT. It's Clancy wishing he had never been held captive and forced to make a propaganda album because it must have ruined a lot of the hard work the Bandito rebellion did in Dema 😌

nooo tyler don't write a song about not wanting to disappoint people and the cycle of shame that one experiences you're so sexy aha

Backslide | Chlorine | Choker | Stressed Out (ERS)

talked to a hunter the other day about wanting to get into hunting bc the idea of sourcing my own meat very much appealed to me but i killed a crab once when i was 12 and i still think about it so idk if i have the stomach to actually kill another animal and he was like well did u eat it? and i was like yeah. and he was like … and u still felt bad? and i was like yeah. and he was like well if u kill a deer thatll probably make u forget all about the crab

you… guys……
