i promised to make a post about THIS so... here you go

i present... the RUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN FIGARO MUSICAL

"безумный день или женитьба фигаро"

generally it's just a movie based on the original beaumarchais play (more precisely: they just took the text of the play and didnt change almost anything. yeah it was their script), but uh. you can see how incredible it looks. it surely has that 2003 vibe

yeah and there's also a star cast. as almaviva we have philip kirkorov, lolita as the countess, andrey danilko (that's the funniest shit bc in ukraine he's famous for his drag roles... LIKE VERKA SERDUCHKA) as cherubino, etc. there also should've been a famous russian actor as figaro, but he just didn't come so they took a random noname guy for this role😭

the songs are uh... well... very 00s like. i think my fav one is marcelina's song where she sings about TREACHEROUS MEN © while leading some guy on a leash (4th screen tho). i think its on yt, the song is called коварные мужики. everyone has to hear it

also there's counts song where he's quoting figaro's monologue from the play..?, cherubino's romance, BASILIO'S SONG, countess's song (the chorus is like this: "men don't love us for many years, men don't love anyone for many years, men don't live long... and that is good". ©.) and uh. many other stuff.

but i think THIS song gives the most complete idea of the musical: https://youtu.be/HXimPPCP3DA?si=PA5exQJcRBgRHxBC

youtube

it's literally called "love-carrot". why? I DONT FUCKING KNOW. (yeah luybov-morkov is just a funny rhyme but still wtf)

you dont even need to understand the lyrics. they just DON'T MAKE ANY SENSE😭😭 it's like... a love song of susanna and figaro?? but it's just some random phrases in verses and they don't have anything to do with figaro??? and it's like the first song in the musical??? yeah.

the whole musical is available on youtube tho. (i just thought that it would be funny if i made eng subs someday but im not that crazy yet)

and. fun fact: there's even a BACKSTAGE VIDEO. and at one moment radiohead's NO SURPRISES starts playing there 😭😭 it's. it's just horrible. i don't know. everything is horrible

so yeah. this musical is so bad that i can't help but love it with all my heart. i love it so much my friends even bought me a fucking dvd of it as a gift.

#the marriage of figaro #le nozze di figaro #opera tag #<- not really.#i dont know what else to say.#actually i think its not THAT funny without uh cultural background or something but still. just the way it looks and sounds...#Youtube

Christmas as a cultural icon is starting to get really dystopian in a climate sense, december has historically been a time of year in which there would be snow in a significant portion of europe and north america, and the fact that its not even icy this time of year and all the christmas songs and decorations reference a time of year that will likely never exist in the same way again in my life time is so strange.

#for reference i live in scotland so it is weird that there is no ice or snow in december anymore #shitpost #not really but its just how i find my original content #christmas #climate change

Hey all, you know how internet searches suck now? When the results are awful, full-of-AI, death-of-the-internet levels of bad?

Start appending date constraints to your searches - "before:2023".

My results have gone from 90% AI bullshit to ~60% usable - which frankly at this point is a huge improvement.

#information death of the internet etc #legit this has been SO SO helpful #shout out to mastodon infosec server for this one #before 2022 we did not really have the AI-content-farms because. the tech did not exist to the public.#and you can knock back the date if need be #obviously this does not FIX the problem but #me.txt

yknow i never noticed the sheer rareness of images having ids or alt text on this website until i started adding alt text to my art (and trying to remember to add it to any images i post in general, especially text screenshots) and that makes me kinda sad

#i used to be pretty intimidated by the idea of having to describe my art but. it isnt as hard as it sounds #i just treat it like im describing an image i dont have at the time really #plus ive been told that even a simple id is better than no id #lev.txt

When I was a kid one of my moms would call her period "moon time" or "her monthlies" or shit like that and my other mom straight up stealthed it, but when I'm a dad I think I'm gonna go straight down the middle and call it Werewolf Week. Like sorry kids, dad can't roughouse right now, it's Werewolf Week

#Plus my sense of smell always goes crazy like a couple days prior #So #I feel like I could really lean into the mythos #They'll get the talk of course but Werewolf Week sounds way cooler than Lady Time or whatever the fuck

#i don't believe that people for serious reasons sort their books any way but by author #and then obviously by release date/series within that #i am being told that i am being JUDGY #also if you sort your books any other way HOW DO YOU FIND THEM #i really need to know #polls #can't believe i forgot to include genre in here

the older i get and the closer i am to reaching 30, the more the people around me try to deny me my age. it’s a constant ‘oh you’re just turning 29 again teehee 🤭’ or ‘dont tell your SO that, he’ll leave you for a younger model 😉’ and i just???? hate it?????????

i spent my entire teenaged years fighting for my life. i crawled through the deepest pits of my depression to cling to the promise of a life beyond that pain. i was so convinced that i was going to die young, that i would never see the grace of my age starting with a 2, let alone 3.

so im going to turn 30, and there’s not a damn thing anyone can do to stop me from loving it.

#anyway it’s still a couple years away #but man im so fucking excited for my 30s!!!!!!!!!#i made it!!!#i survived!!!#so many people never got the opportunity to be 30 #im gonna enjoy every fucking second of it!#sulley speaks #sorry my coworker said something really rude to me lol #it struck a nerve
