Vähän omasta tumblristani viime päiviltä // A bit of my tumblr from the last few days

En ole kauheasti täällä käynyt viime aikoina, ja suurimmaksi syyksi se, etten juurikaan huono-oloisena käytä tietokonetta. Jotenkin tietokoneen käyttäminen tuntuu vain pahentavan apatiaani, joten mieluummin olen sitten puhelimen kautta netissä ja jossain missä tunnen oloni mukavaksi. Esimerkiksi alakerran sohvalla. Katsoen jotain kivaa, niinkuin Tähtiporttia.
Joka tapauksessa, Tumblria käytän päivittäin, koska sen UI on aivan mahtava mobiilille. Se toimii myös huomattavasti huonommalla netillä kuin esimerkiksi mikään puhelimessani olevista chattiohjelmista.

Joten tässä vähän jotain sieltä.

I haven't been here for a while, and the biggest reason being that computers, or at least being on one make me more apathetic if I already am even slightly. So I tend to avoid computers in those times. I prefer then to be online on my mobile from somewhere comfy and safe, say downstairs sofa, watching something fun like Stargate...
But I do use Tumblr every day, because it's UI is so much better in the mobile version in my opinion. It also works on a much crappier internet than any of the chat programmes I have on my phone.

So here's something from there.

This week's music inspiration

Because I've finally again been doing some writing (I started a novel or a novella or whatever it's going to be like four years ago), I've been listening to a lot of music that could help me get the thoughts and the ideas that I need on to paper.
Yes. I write on paper first. With a pencil.
It makes my life a lot more difficult, since I have to copy the text on my computer every once in a while and that's usually after writing about 30+ pages of A4s full, and it's really annoying. But. I can't write directly on my computer, the words just don't come out write, I need the feel of the paper and the pen and the scratching sound to make the right mood.

So
I also need music. Not always, sometimes silence is the only way to really get to the point of what I was trying to make in that minute, but mostly I do listen to music. Especially when I'm rewriting the things onto my computer. And yeah, of course I have to rewrite. I should probably rewrite like a hundred times, but since I'm mostly doing this for me, it's just the one rewrite for now.

So here's my inspiration for this weeks writing and all that I've written during the Summer:


Choir of Young Believers - Hollow Talk.
Heard this the first time while watching a Danish/Swedish crime series called Bron:Broen.


Abney Park - End of Days.
Makes sense in a way that mostly I get help from these, because the setting is sort of dieselpunk. Actually I suppose it's nothing other than dieselpunk.


Abney Park - Victorian Vigilante.
Especially for my last chapter I've been writing on, this has really helped with the unbelievable melody.


Abney Park - I am Stretched on Your Grave.


Tennessee Ernie Ford - 16 Tons.
As most of the characters have at least some or only a working class background and the whole setting is in a world like this, where all your life belongs to the corporation, it's made a huge impact on me. Besides, Ernie's got one hell of a voice ;)


The Pretty Reckless - Make Me Wanna Die.
Actually this is just to make me feel better ;)



Country Joe McDonald - Feel Like I'm Fixing to Die.
Actually a lot of old anti-Vietnam wars are a great source of inspiration for writing anything about any sort of revolt. I think. Anyways...


Anti-Flag - You've Got To Die For Your Government.
Falls for me under the same category. Also one of my favourite songs for years now....especially love the end. The jump.
