lauren boebert is an unhinged monster and we absolutely need to focus on that
but also let me point and laugh at the fact she got thrown out of a showing of the beetlejuice musical for furiously vaping, loudly singing, taking pictures with flash, and trying to give a through-the-jeans handy to her date, a democrat
what establishment politicians mean when they talk about reaching across the aisle i guess
yeah man it’d be wicked fucked up if i posted a picture of a private act good thing i only posted a picture her giving a hearty helping of beef strokemeoff through denim in a packed theater

HOT TAKE TOURNAMENT!
GREATEST HITS!
Submission 474
vocaloids (and all similar non-Yamaha-owned vocal synths) are bad. all of them.
It’s a mockery of the human voice. Frye from Splatoon 3 of all things is the closest we will ever get to having any interesting vocal technique in a voice synth bank. Singing styles around the world are so interesting and take so much skill and you abandon them for a glorified MIDI file? I also blame them for the rise of AI-generated covers, because they first started the devaluing of the human voice and the usage of it as an instrument - a really boring one that will never know advanced or diverse technique. Congrats, Miku made Minecraft, now all of SpongeBob has sang Billie Jean by Michael Jackson. At least the SpongeBob characters have distinct and interesting voices.
[from follow up asks]
hello. vocaloid take submitter here.
i didn’t expect my submission to gain as much traction as it did, i thought it was lukewarm at best. i thought there were more vocaloid haters out there. this is tumblr, though, so i guess not. still think vocaloid is ass though.
i will say, it might add context to my take that i myself am a singer and have natural perfect pitch. while i haven’t sang in any professional capacity, i’ve still done some voice training and lots of lower level performances. i have very strong feelings about singing, and hold what the human voice can do in high regard.
i also have a better ear for picking up smaller things in the human voice (re: natural perfect pitch) and the difference between humans and vocaloid is extremely striking to me. no amount of tuning can make a vocaloid not sound lifeless to me, because i will never, ever hear a human voice, and instead of letting the lead of the song Not Be Vocals - which has never been a novel concept - they HAVE to put the voice bank in.
also, re: “frye isn’t a voice bank dumbass”, congrats! you took away something i felt was actually interesting! god i wish more people knew about more singing styles that they couldn’t easily replicate!
while now i know that AI voices are not a continuation of vocaloid, sorry, still think it’s bad, go to hell and learn to compose a song without lyrics.
also - still the vocaloid take submitter - to continue:
i will eventually send a link to a playlist of all of the Vocaloid songs i have ever listened to, because i am sure most of the people who think i submitted that think that i do not even know what Defoko is, or that i’ve heard exactly two Hatsune Miku songs. i know what Defoko is. i know she’s entirely computer generated. i’ve listened to her voice. i still think it’s bad. have any of you big shots heard of Big Al? i’ve listened to him. also bad. it’s bad.

I think chicken breast is disgusting and I would rather blend it up into a shake than eat it with my teeth
It’s fast, it’s efficient, it’s nutritious if you add fruits and vegetables. It’s easy to prepare and you can drink it on the go. I need the protein but chicken breast tastes disgusting either way, and I’m tired of putting in so much effort to make the joyless rubbery meat taste good.
My friends and family are wrong, this is the future.
Which take do you agree with more?
I think all vocaloids are bad and make a mockery of the human voice!
I want to blend chicken into smoothies and drink it!
I see some of you not voting! That’s cheating!
It’s ok if you agree with neither take! Just choose the take you agree with slightly more!
Think of it like choosing the lesser of two evils!
Propaganda is always encouraged, and remember to reblog your favourite polls for exposure!
there’s less than 24 hours left!

it would rule to be invulnerable OBVIOUSLY but i would just use it for the comedy factor. you say something i dont like and i throw myself directly into traffic to express my displeasure then walk away unharmed to continue our conversation now that the bit is over

that poll going around asking how often you smoke weed and almost a third of ppl saying they’ve never smoked before, and that poll that revealed that over a third of tumblr users have never kissed anyone before, proves to me that stoners who have gay sex are a small but imperative part of the tumblr ecosystem. Keystone species
No more war on this post. Only Wallace and Gromit toking now. Peace and love.
