I have a two hour union meeting tonight, but I watched Parade's Tony performance and I need to cry for forever.

Oh, no, Bromac McCarthy has gone into ~that cold autistic dark~.

#for those of you who aren't harboring the same grudge against the author#'that cold autistic dark' is how he described a post apocalyptic landscape at the start of the road#fun little writing tip: if you wanna be known for your stark masculine prose#don't use too many words (you know like a woman would)#instead use single-word references to disability to let your audiences know 'this place is bad and scary and not the future we want'#who needs words when you have eugenics?

As a queer disabled theatre fan, Alex Newell's and Ali Stroker's wins mean so much to me.

As someone who's experienced workplace abuse, Lea Michele's awardlessness means almost as much.

#but seriously alex newell and ali stroker are both incredible performers with once in a generation voices#their technical skills are phenomenal#they do things very few people do and at a relatively young age#(esp in comparison to operatic belters)#the fact that they will be in all the broadway history books#is made all the sweeter knowing that lea michele will be beneath them as a fucking footnote#honestly i'm wishing all the best all the success and all the flowers to anyone she (and people like her) have abused#your move samantha marie ware

the funnest form of being a hater is hating something you actually have so much love for but sucks. it’s cathartic. corny people are always like ‘if you hate x so much don’t talk about it 😒 positivity always <3’ you could NEVER understand our WARRIORS BOND

#fandom#some of you didn't grow up making fun of whatever was on tv with your sister#and it shows#(if you think being a hater is the worst result of such a childhood pastime#then think again#my sister promotes her long form improv troupe on facebook#they're actually funny but i can't turn this off)

tragedies at baby time

Okay, I looked it up and cats do this when they don’t want you to look at their babies. That honestly makes this comic funnier

Thank you, xxx-drake, for explaining to me why my former roomate’s cat would try to shove her kitten under me.  She was done having to look at it. 

(This is the same cat who had to be bodily restrained to nurse, kept misplacing the baby badly enough we had to find it for her, and had to have the idea of “pick up babby by BACK of neck, not FRONT” demonstrated by my roommate with her mouth, repeatedly, before she finally understood what she was doing wrong.)

Hated how Nate’s arc ended. Absolutely loathed it. Instead of getting to play a real role in the match against his old team with his old boss, instead of getting interaction with Bex and Miss Kakes when so much of the vibes with Rupert came across as sexual harassment (“damn, you got to his afternoon kiss before I did”, “hey, Nathan, wouldn’t us picking up women together be such a bonding experience”), instead of him getting to embrace the tough love side of his coaching instincts, instead of the team apologizing to him for how badly they treated him and their instinctive violence, instead of Nate getting to grow in a space away from Richmond as a coach, instead of follow through on the press room giving him panic flashbacks TO THE GREYHOUNDS HARASSING HIM, we got him happily back as a kitman, picking up after the people that were terrible to him. Nate had ALREADY apologized to Colin and Will, and had a whole beautiful gesture for Will. This was over the top, it felt punitive, and I have no way of reading it that isn’t “this brown man was ungrateful and his ambition was bad and so he has to punish himself until someone can magnanimously decide he’s earned his coaching spot back”.

so interesting how the no option is winning. its so curious how life will make us live in a parallel line to people we wouldnt have otherwise ever been so close with. its so radiantly poetic and beautiful.

#polls#secret third thing#me and my sister would both be completely different people if weren't siblings who were raised together#it's impossible to know who we'd be without each other and if we'd get along#but assuming we were the same people with the same interest and sense of humor as we do now#and assuming we treated each other the same way we did when we were siblings#it really depends on which point in our lives we met#my sister was a fucking tyrant when we were little
