June is Black Music Month!
so I wanted to highlight who has made the Gorillaz what they really are…
these are not the Gorillaz:
I would argue that even Jamie Hewlett and Damon Albarn are not the Gorillaz.
from their very inception, the Gorillaz have been made possible by those who Albarn and Hewlett collaborate with. their unique and interesting sound is the result of a multitude of musicians working together.
approximately two thirds of their collaborators have been black musicians
THESE are the Gorillaz that we love so dearly:
so Gorillaz fans, let’s spend some time this month listening to what else these artists have created!
below the cut I list all of these artists and the songs they’re featured in, find your favorite songs and give these collaborators a listen!

Me when mm cold.
When you live in a normally hot climate, but the weather is starting to noticeably get cooler
If you can't tell, I'm having a grand time
okay so i finished checking if we were friends in every universe and, uh, it turns out we're only friends in 6 of them. but look, i need you to understand these universes vary like crazy, okay? like 6 is actually insanely high, like way higher than most. and one of those is the universe where i accidentally killed the actor who played Dipsy from Teletubbies when i was 7 and my life went completely differently as a result. and we still ended up friends! also you were a girl in that universe for some reason. what? oh, uh, yeah, you were cute as hell. like really cute. did you just fucking giggle
My favorite 2 flavors of Glass Animals songs have to be Dave Bayley singing like an unsatisfied housewife or a desperate lover who might be hooked on something.
Thinking about the lore of angels in Para Sanar. What do you mean a God can ascend someone they feel is close to them and make it to where they are to spend the rest of eternity working for and worshiping this deity? Like, even after the angel dies. They're always reborn and remember their job after either meeting their god again or meeting another angel.
It's very sweet when you look at it through the family lens. Angels are some of the closest things the Gods have to family. This one person is destined to stay by your side, forever, no matter what. You're literally bound together as the God gives a part of themself away.
But then there's also the sad way of looking at it. Sometimes angels don't realize what they are being given or that they even have been made an angel. It's a huge rule for Gods that they have to make sure 100% that the person they're ascending understands and wants to become an angel. Otherwise, you've just trapped someone in an endless cycle of following after you until either the world ends or the God dies. Even then, if a God dies, it's like a part of the angel did, too. Being away from their God prompts intense waves of grief and longing. It never ends. That has to be exhausting.
Anyways. I love me and my friends funky minecraft lore, have a nice day.
I get this! I've talked about it a few times before on my blog, but I tend to feel more wolf in the colder months, and more raccoon, and coyote in the warmer ones :]
It's so nice when fall comes, and I can feel myself get lost in its crisp air. It's like my wolf is calling itself back home, crashing into me, and letting me remember my love for winter all over again.
I think that alterhumans/nonhumans don't talk too much about seasonal shifts as someone with many kintypes.
for me, weather or a season really affect my experience.
there are types of shifts/or feelings in general I only experience when it's raining, or the ones that only appear when it's snow outside... for example, it's most likely for me to feel more birdy in colder weather, since wearing baggy chlothes/coats make me feel like they're my feathers, and its more likely for me to feel more dragon-y in warm sunlight, where I can feel my scales while sunbathing
in general, when seasons change, so does my experience with everything... sometimes the weather doesn't make me feel like one of my kintypes at all, and sometimes it's the exact opposite
I noticed it recently, in the last 6 months I couldn't really feel my fox side at all, at the point that made me question my identity, i finally figured out that's cause I mostly experience fox-like shifts in autumn-winter!
let me know your experience with seasons/weather!

My toxic trait is that anytime I get too much attention online, I debate for a good minute whether or not to delete my entire account.
Hgh same
I need a long dog snoot so I can wear one of these
PLEASE
Feelin real green.
The Tumblr green text shade is a pretty good representation of me, I think. It's just toxic enough for me to think of Fallout and radioactive sludge.
The orange is good too. It isn't super bright, which I appreciate. More Halloween. Like, if I bottled up the original Halloween Town movie or a Spirit Halloween? It would be this orange.
Good shit

Getting out of my nice, cozy bed to go to an 8 AM biology lecture was so difficult today.
What do you mean I need to be at school? I'm supposed to be curled up in a dog bed waiting for someone to wake up and give me breakfast...
Be like me
Load up fallout 4
Play until I look around and my room is completely dark
Realize I have not eaten today (don't do this part)
Go into kitchen, find a hunk of smoked brisket in the fridge. Cut off a chunk and go to town on it. No sauce. Nothing. Just meat.
Heavily push down the urge to growl at the dogs because it's my food.
Also find a container of chopped up cucumber. Eat a handful of it.
Feel satisfied.
Go back to fallout.
