genuinely, i think watching live theatre can improve your media literacy so much

like people who look at doctor who and are like 'lol the effects are so rubbish'

maybe watch a stage play where there's no backdrops and half the characters are played by the same three guys in different hats and maybe you will calm down

People who were raised on Marvel movies simply don’t understand the beauty of a well made and executed practical effect

You ever seen a person in all black operating a bird puppet? No you haven’t because we’ve all agreed to ignore the people dressed in all black. That’s a bird.

The show I just finished working on included a carriage chase that was conducted with actors on moving staircases that folded open into carriages, which were mostly stationary except when they were turned by the actors manipulating them, and the whole chase was communicated with projections, lights, and sound (and acting of course). At one point a character jumped from one carriage to another in slow motion, which is to say, an actor wearing all black lifted him and brought him across as he "leapt". Audiences fucking loved it.

Theatre's ability to create worlds with paper and string and a hat or two is one of my favorite things about it. For those two hours we all agree that the man in the brown hat is one person, and then when he switches to the blue hat he's another person. It's seamless and simple and is at its heart an act of community storytelling and I love it.

hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset

  • the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years
  • taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult
  • at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)
  • 'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65
  • it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age
  • it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.
  • you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, be fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.
  • young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!
  • there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big

Hey so

the last time I reblogged this post right before I got a great job, in a permanent work-from-home position, with benefits, retirement, and a salary literally 3x what I was making before, doing something I really like. 

So you know. 

This might be the real one, y’all.

ok so i think that my favourite fantasy subgenre is The Inherent Tragedy Of Being Born Into Royalty. which mostly means that i like to read about gay princes but with some nuance

IT'S VERSATILE!!!!!!
