One thing I've noticed is a lot of people who don't really know much about Bob Dylan and have only heard his most popular songs will often use him as a straw man to pit other artists against as a way of making the other artist sound cool but will make up arguments that don't really make any sense if you actually do know anything about Bob Dylan
Congratulations!
im still deciding what i want to do with my account in terms of blogging…. but i just got a notification saying holy moly you got 50 likes so i feel kinda proud :,) yall are cool people
hey i also have a cd collection!! i have just over a 100 cds i think :> how many do you have and do you collect anything else?
-🤠
That's so cool!
I don't have a lot, only 40! I'm planning to get more though. However, I collect a lot of things like movies, books, music magazines, art supplies and musician autobiography/biography books!
some of you are so insensible like, wtf?
yeah, paul mccartney is not 52 anymore, he grew older, and it's a BLESSING. because there are only two options: you either grow old or you die. thank GOD Paul is here, now, being able to record this song, unlike John, who we've lost a long time ago. We will never get old man John voice, and that's because he's not here. That sucks. I'd give a lot to have seen John grow older, even if just a little more. See his face change, his music and his voice too. It would have been a blessing.
be fucking greateful that paul and ringo are still here, doing this. rejoice on paul's older raw and real voice. it exists.
Hello Beatle People!
To spread some crimble cheer, The Beatles Kink Meme is hosting the second annual Beatles Secret Santa Fanworks Exchange! Create (& receive!) a piece of fanwork: fanfic, fanart, fanvideo, or gif set!
Once you receive your assignment, create a gift that matches your giftee’s preferences. Remember to keep it a secret until the posting. But you can send anonymous messages to ask questions or just to wish your giftee a happy crimble!
Have your gift completed by December 24-Jan 5 and during that time deliver your gift! You can post it to your tumblr and/or AO3 or submit it to the Beatles Kink meme. Be sure to tag your recipients.
The ao3 collection can be found here and anything posted early will not be revealed until the gift giving period.
Tag your posts #beatles secret santa 2023 and tag beatleskinkmeme so we can reblog all gifts
Rules & Guidelines:
You must have a tumblr to sign up as that will be how your assignment will be shared. Messaging and anon should be turned on to receive your info and so your gift creator can contact you!
You don’t need to have an ao3 account but we added a question regarding this because some people have different tumblr names from ao3
Be sure to mark all the types of gifts you would be open to receiving!
All fanfics should have a minimum of 500 words and all gifts should be completed.
This is being sponsored by the good ol’ kink meme after all, so NSFW is allowed, but only if your recipient says they would like that in their gift.
All requests do not have to be included in the gift, but just can be used as general guidelines. If you need more info from your giftee then feel free to send them an anon ask or send a message to this blog and we can reach out to your giftee to get the information!
If for any reason you have to drop out, it’s okay! But please contact us as soon as possible so we can make sure everyone still receives a gift!
If you signed up last year and never created a gift, you will not be able to participate.
When you receive your gift, please leave a comment to thank your santa
Please respond to all messages within a week of receiving, even just to say, got it! We are trying to alleviate people signing up and ghosting. If there is no response, you will be removed from the event.
Important Dates:
By November 6: All pairings will be assigned and information sent out via tumblr DM (you will receive a message from either @beatleskinkmeme, my main account @theoldmixer or from @heybulldogs who is my assistant elf!)
Around December 4th: We will contact you again to check in how things are going.
December 24-Jan 5: Gifts are delivered
Feel free to submit an ask or dm @beatleskinkmeme if you have any other questions!
do you have new years plans this year?
-🤠
Hi! Some new plans I have are working on making a short film, making new friends, playing guitar again and starting to sing out loud, and working on getting more of my credits for college!
So I just sat here with my tea realising that we are, truly, the last generation that will ever get a new Beatles song.
I think that's a little something worth celebrating in these very dark times.
• She/Her • Artist • Writer • Musician • A blog about the musicians I love and thoughts in my head. DMs and Asks are open!
