Breaking down Buddy’s motivations in LISA the Joyful through the song Loudmouth (SPOILERS!)

This is a post that bunnyhops from a similar essay(?) I did about Rando. I recommend you read that first, here.

I converted THIS rant from a Twitter thread (and has WAY LESS spelling errors this time).

I consider Loudmouth by AJJ to be a great song through which to examine Buddy’s perspective in LISA the Joyful. I also think it works as a direct sister song to Be Nice to Me. Where Be Nice To Me asks ‘Why are you like this?’ Loudmouth responds ‘THIS is why.’

Re-contextualising these lyrics as a vehicle to break down Buddy’s motivations allowed me get to the root to why her frustrations led her to her bloody rampage in Joyful, and what (to me at least) belies Buddy’s deeply tragic and sympathetic motivation through which she rationalises as the only way she can save herself from harm. Also I this song is a banger, so, enjoy that.

Analysis under the cut!

My mom is hella conservative

Like, not in the republican way. I mean she will not let me wear black lipstick/thigh highs/fishnets/shortish skirts/anything kids my age (and sometimes younger) wear because it's "too grown"

Mom I am 16

Like, I can't live on my own. But for the love of Christ Black lipstick????? That's GOTH. I see girls wearing thigh highs all the time. I can legally own and drive a car. I am the minimum age to get a job anywhere (to my knowledge).

I'm not saying I'm "basically grown" but come on. My mom thinks everything is "too grown" but gets upset when I don't want to wear ripped jeans. I hate ripped jeans because what is the point???? They're ripped. They've failed at the only job they were assigned. They're always too tight on my knees, so I just feel the ripped threads dig into my knees. I had to convince my mom to let me wear boys clothes. My black jeans are too old (even though I like the faded look they have). But wearing a crop top sweater is fine??? I hate the texture of knitted sweaters and ripped jeans. I wanna wear skirts and thigh highs and baggy jeans, but it's either "too grown" or it'll make me look "homeless" or "like nobody cares for me".

Idk, just ranting. I'm really frustrated. I feel like once I have the ability to move out and but my own clothes she won't even recognize me because that's gonna be all I want to wear. Black upper lip with a bright lower lip, thigh highs, and a non-knitted oversized sweater. I don't care what opinion you have on how old you have to be to wear what, I'm just upset because all the clothes I want to wear is off limits.

If anyone's wondering (which you probably aren't tbh)

"Je m'appelle Y/N" = "My name is Y/N"

If you wanna add emphasis to the my, add "moi" to the start ("Moi, je m'appelle Y/N" = "Me, my name is Y/N") (You put equal emphasis on the entire sentence, with a little extra at the end)

Twice : Thanks to Duolingo, I can ask people if they are a horse but can't tell people what my name is in French.

Dabi : Ask me if I'm a fucking horse. I dare you.

Twice : Tu es un cheval?

Dabi : Nay.

Twice : Oh you MOTHERFUCKER—

Ask and you shall receive~

REBLOG IF YOU SUPPORT TRANS WITCHES.

I saw some posts and accounts that really bummed me out tonight. Some people are so proud to be transphobic and it’s disgusting. I’m terrified that I accidentally follow some TERFS without realizing it.

Show trans people some love in the midst of all of this hate that is still going around.

With one hour left to 2020

Let me just say

Fuck 2020
