VocaVibes Concert - May 31, 2013

Sat, 01 Jun 2013 11:25:00 -0400

I’m not particularly into the UTAU scene, so I’m not sure how popular MisfitUTAU is to boot. However, some time ago, I got an invitation to the second VocaVibes concert by this group, and due to some last-minute plans by my family, I was able to hop into a car and head over.

To give you an idea of the environment, it’s a good idea to talk about who runs the group: the core of the group is based in New Jersey, with members in both high school and college (if I remember correctly) creating UTAUs and their respective MMD models. The one who held the concert lives about half an hour north of me, in a small suburban area, and I know at least one or two of the members live in the same area. The group seems pretty tight-knit, and everyone’s extremely nice.

With this being literally being in the backyard of one of their homes, I wasn’t expecting anything fancy or highly-professional to begin with. I walked through the open backyard gate to the small group of teens, which at no point in the night seemed to exceed 25 people. There were some snacks brought out, mainly chips, and about 10 tubes of slim glowsticks waiting to be opened, set up behind and to the side of a mix of backyard chairs and metal folding chairs.

We waited until it was dark enough, and soon enough, on a large fabric net began the concert (“Poker Face” featuring V1k1, Eli, Olive, and… crap I forgot the fourth.) What the audience lacked in numbers was made up for with energy and enjoyment. While the attention wasn’t always on the concert in full, everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, with beach balls, balloons, and glowsticks practically flying around the crowd (well, maybe not the latter item so much). Some girls got up and tried to dance along on the side of the chairs.

As an aside, for some reason, I got the feeling that some of the attendees weren’t necessarily long-time fans, but they enjoyed things nevertheless. Something particularly amusing was how the father of the house asked a lot of questions; at one point, he walked behind the screen, then came back and asked, “Wait, why is it that when I go back there, I can’t see their backs, I just see their fronts? I thought it was 3D?” At least he did some research before asking. *coughmikuconcertreportscough*

In terms of the concert itself, it was pretty alright. Some models (V1k1) were better than others (Lulabell and her damn adorable yet physics-defying skirt), and Salsaki Tacokimi’s voice bank really stood out. The motion data was as expected, with hits and misses, nice dances and shaky renditions of Mikupa/Giving Day/etc. concert motion data, but definitely enjoyable to watch.

Not sure if they want a reveal on their new UTAU, but it’s a fairly good voice bank with a great model, and she did a very impressive rendition of “World is mine” for her premiere song.

I don’t know if anyone was watching the live stream that they attempted, but at one point the laptop overheated. At that point, the crew just seemed to sigh, kick back, and enjoy the night.

Which they really deserve to be honest. Worth the trip, and looking forward to hearing about their second concert of the summer.

"Cellulite Confessions" - What the fuck kind of dumb bullshit is this.

Sun, 26 May 2013 12:21:00 -0400

"Cellulite Confessions" - What the fuck kind of dumb bullshit is this.:

I explicitly came back on tumblr to discuss this.

It’s totally okay to want to change your body! I’m trying to lose weight for ~~awesome better sex~~ totally personal reasons. And legitimate health concerns.

But this… this is just all kinds of stupid.

It’s supposed to be a “joke,” where everyone jokes about how terrible their cellulite was, and one woman shows a fake picture of herself in winter clothing at a beach, saying she had to wear layers of clothing to hide her cellulite. And the women say that it’s the worst thing that’s ever happened to them. And then they laugh at the end.

Cute and fun, right? Bullshit.

This is how some women legitimately feel about their body, and this commercial/campaign is making a mockery out of it.

This company thinks it’s okay to joke about women’s insecurities about their body to sell a product. Hell, I didn’t even think it’s a joke until you see the picture of the woman on the “beach.”

I hope to hell this shit gets pulled.

Sat, 25 May 2013 09:49:03 -0400

in my time away from tumblr my laptop broke and got fixed, I got a job interview, I started looking up courses, and planned for kit visiting in like a bit over a week (mon june 3rd woo)

I’m still going to animenext

my twitter’s been my outlet since I left so if you wanna follow me there that’s a good idea

I’ve also learned that if someone honest-to-god loves you they’ll never give you up and there’s someone out there for you even if you don’t think it’s true but you gotta be willing to look you know??

and my mood swings are more extreme than usual, I actually lashed out really badly at kit last night (like I literally wouldn’t believe I said what I did) but he said he was more concerned than upset

the psychologist I got is really chill, she’s almost too chill and I considered switching but things are progressing so I’ll be fine I guess

that’s it I think

We all go around making self-hate look so cute and then wonder why we’re all so goddamn miserable.

It’s not one person. It’s the users of this site as a collective. I follow 1000+ blogs and it just never stops.

Seriously. Stop it. Everyone here is wonderful in their own way. Things get better, I promise, and if you keep thinking that nobody likes you or that you’re not worth anything, hell, maybe nobody will want to like you, or you’ll stop having worth.

That’s not the point. The point is that people on this site romanticize anti-social attitudes and self-hatred. It’s one thing to have someone feel that way and blog about it, it’s another when 40k people reblog it like “lol this is me I am so lonely” as if this is just a cute thing we should all accept about ourselves. It’s bullshit and I’m done with it for a while.

Seriously. Stop it. Everyone…

I’ve learned more than anything that negativity warrants negativity. So this site is like one giant hellhole of negativity. Seriously, people need to stop, because more than anyone, the negativity affects themselves. And it’s visible. It really is.

After I address this issue, I’m off for a while. It’s really not gonna help my therapy, being around people who devalue themselves so much that they actually do lose value.

I think I need a break from this self-deprecating shithole of a site

I hate how negative and self-loathing you all are on a daily basis it makes me want to punch a wall ugh

If all the goddamn self-beating negativity that you guys reblog - just the reblogs - were tumblr saviored for a week on my dash I would barely have a dash

it pisses me off more than anything to see a self-hating post have so many notes like yes thank you my depression does that already and I don’t need to know that everyone else on tumblr feels hopeless and we’re all fucked and lonely people

Fuck you all, go do something stupid or unconventional and make your lives better like you all mindlessly agree to do every day here with your cutesy little hiveminds
