Hey @Earthshine i was in Campbell and this dude was here with cheese curds! Which I can’t have but you can.
Kinda downer music (though still music I love), but one of my favorite current musicians, Steven WIlson, has previously partnered with some stop-motion animators to create some absolutely stunning and emotional videos.
Oh, Content Warnings: Lots of death and sadness.
If you don't mind some sadness, check out the videos for "The Raven That Refused to Sing"

and for "Routine."

Though I guess having a portmanteau Brad/Rocky character is common since that’s Paul in Dune. Assuming Vladimir Harkonen is Frankie makes Sting the Columbia character (or maybe Columbia/Rocky) since Shaddam IV is Riff-Raff and The Beast Rabban is Eddy.
Bladerunner maps even less well to RHPS, ‘cause Roy is obviously Rocky, Tyrell is Frank, Deckard is Brad, but then is Leon Riff-Raff? Is Rachel Janet or Columbia or both? And since the narrator would be the criminologist, they aren’t even in most cuts of the movie.
Then I realized I was being too literal about appearance and relationships; Aura maps to Columbia, but *Prince Barin* is actually Riff-Raff, because they’re both plotting against Ming/Frankie.
That means Brian Blessed is Meatloaf, as is logical here. I mean trying to figure out how Flash Gordon relates to RHPS isn’t gonna be a direct correlation anyway.
Uh, what does it say about me that my choice of listening in the car is the Flash Gordon soundtrack, and The Cure?
Did a ton of dishes, did a ton of laundry. Housemate decided they weren’t in the mood for the outside world at all after laundry, and there was no parking near this deli I’m curious about, so now I’m at one of the few Korean places I actually know locally. Parking in this part of Oakland sucks! The dumplings at this place don’t though.
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
