you're the last thing i wanna see underneath the tree !
in a previous post, i said that i finally managed to get my hands on this piece of panic memorabilia (and for only $93!) so i want to share it with all the other presplit panic fans
it would be impossible for me to include every picture in this book, so i just handpicked some of my favorites
this one with the live in chicago album artwork makes me so :')
i like this one because it reminded me of in behind the sea live in chicago when ryan says "or lake michigan, either one"
if youre album to find this for a reasonable price (or want to pay the $250+ it usually goes for...) then i really recommend getting it!! it's such a cool piece and i'm SOOO glad i got to add it to my collection i am so obsessed with it. there were a lot of pictures i'd never seen before and it made my presplit slut heart happy
okay but if you ever see a male creative who had a string of great work and then everything else he did was dogshit, go to the "personal life" part of his wikipedia and look at his relationships. you'll either find a major tragedy he didn't recover from (completely understandable) or, more likely, there was a woman in his life doing uncredited shit editing his stuff or contributing generally and she's not there anymore.
I told a friend about this phenomenon in literature and he called me weeks later like, I remembered what you said about women doing uncredited work when tim burton came up. he made a string of bangers then everything else just was nowhere near as good. the timeline matches perfectly to when he was with this german visual artist (lena gieseke). he's done some good work in collaboration, but if things were dug into I suspect we would find she did a lot more than people realise.
so yeah whenever you look around like wow women didn't work in history, or, women aren't auteurs, or, there just aren't as many great female writers - societal reasons for that aside, half the time they absolutely did.

As part of her social media detox this girl on YouTube made herself do one hour of understimulating tasks every day and she just counted rice for 60 minutes straight because its no different from doomscrolling in terms of wasted time
