Hadestown is the best take on the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, because all over the internet I see people say, "You're not supposed to think of how he could have succeeded! That misses the total point of the story. Everyone was doomed and there was no way anything could have worked out alright. If you're imagining a scenario that didn't end in tragedy, you're just an arrogant fool. Just shut up and be sad about it"

But Hadestown says, "please please please think of how it could have been. Orpheus would have never looked back if he just had hope, please have hope, he would have wanted us to have hope. If you don't walk out of this theater thinking of how it could have been, we have failed you. go have hope, go see the world in the way it could be, so help us"

reading a romance novel where the protagonist feels the need to stop and inform that audience that it's okay for her, a 27 year old, to hook up with a 31 year old because despite the age difference both of their brains are fully developed. the Discourse really has done incalculable damage.

bro took it literally

I'm getting so pissed with people who are saying Gwen isnt trans. Like they're trying to explain why her dad has a trans patch on his jacket and why she has a trans flag in her room, by saying she supports trans people... wtf???? Literally what ally has a TRANS FLAG, IN THEIR ROOM, BECAUSE THEY SUPPORT TRANS PEOPLE??? That's some shit closeted me would tell my parents when they saw me drawing rainbows. People that are saying this shit are literally just transphobic and dont want her to be trans. Gwen is trans and fuck everyone that argues against that.

THIS IS SO CUTE

Oh, so wanting to make a musical is ok? But when I, Henry Hidgens-

Be silly.

Be in cahoots.

But most of all, be kind.

According to a recent report published by the Aargauer Zeitung (h/t Golem.de), around three million smart toothbrushes have been infected by hackers and enslaved into botnets.

The most cyberpunk thing on your dash today.

Good omens series 3 sneak peek

i too have a pressing question: why are straights like this

Casual reminder that you can get your Spy Another Day digital ticket now, and then watch it once it's available (from what I understand by the 30th?)

According to The Internet, One Step Ahead is "HUGE" and "Gayer than 54 Below," so you definitely don't want to miss out on the Spies!

Plus, y'know, if we want TCB to do more amazing things in the future, and (most importantly!) be able to pay people a living wage, we have to give them our money if at all possible. Independent theatre only exists if we fund it!
