SABRINA CARPENTER Taste (2024)

*pokes head out*

Okay, so does anyone remember the basically Avatar the Last Airbender renaissance? Where everyone started getting back into it, and there was even a playlist of AtLA musical numbers?

Avatar: The Last Musical

Yeah, Balance helped me get through my thesis when I was near-on breaking down. It gave me sanity for much longer than I would have had without it.

So. Since then, the creator has dropped at least three bangers, Top of my School, Price of Perfection, and Saving Face. They are Great. She's auditioned for Canada's Got Talent and actually made it to the stage (I auditioned for AGT twice and got nowhere close, so the fact that she got that far is astounding and pretty cool).

Now, she's making a short musical film. As per the introduction of their fundraising page:

Hello! We are a team of student filmmakers from Cornell University studying film production, media studies, and performing and media arts. We are currently fundraising for Cornell University film project Silence. Written and directed by award-winning student filmmaker Katherine Lynn-Rose, Silence is a short film that explores familial love, connection, and culture through the lens of a musical film. As a team of BIPOC filmmakers, we hold a deep appreciation for narratives that authentically reflect our lives, experiences, and cultures, and it is our aspiration to bring such stories to light.

Anyways. Fundraising. She needs funds to get there, and they're aiming for 2k. So far, they've got $450.

If you can't donate, can you at least spread this? Absolutely zero shame (cause I think she'd hate that anyways). I just think she's really skilled and think it'd be cool if she and her team gets to make a film. I'd like to see how they communicate their vision.

Anyways, here's the link. Bye!

I want to live life soft and slow

but sometimes I get angry too

cool ❤

Knowingly

No one hurts me knowingly And I don't really let them see The scars they leave under my sleeve I guess that's on me, yeah... It was an accident It's just ignorance Didn't mean to do it, do it, no So I let it pass, roll off my back No reason to cry over and over But the tear stains on my pillow Tell me that I don't know how to really let this go

No one hurts me knowingly And I don't really let them see The scars they leave under my sleeve I guess that's on me, yeah...

Well, my broken heart is just collateral damage to someone's selfish tendencies Maybe if I spoke up Tell them I had enough, they'd listen to me But maybe they won't, and maybe they don't - They don't care what they do to me Listen Here

I’ve made myself small

Answered every call

Now here are we

Backs against the wall

I was once/am a yes, a people pleaser

“Helping” others I was more than eager

Agreed to everything to my demise

Now all I know I must criticize

I didn’t learn through all the pain

The emotional rollercoasters, the crushing shame,

That me myself I’m way too unselfish

Nothing I have, is anything I own.

I keep the peace that’s all I’m good for,

I can’t explain what I need or what I’m here for

Smile for everyone, and reach out my hands

But in the end, I’m always alone again.

Why do I bother, why can’t I live?

When every choice I make gets twisted to shit?

I drop all my cares, I’m like a stone to a river, living my life only to be disturbed by others.

My own emotions are at the wheel, yet they are held at gun point at every waking moment, smiling and staying quiet out of fear of being a disappointment.

When will it be my turn? Who controls the fight or flight? I’ll stay here, under the water, until the surface is in sight.

I’ve put myself last, just like everyone else.

How am I to know, when I don’t even know myself?

For a song your sub conscious basically wrote, I love it!

The song from my dream that literally woke me up to write them down.

Green Light

If I passed around a bottle on the foyer of the library roof

Could I afford to lose?

Yeah this is what I’m thinking about
