spent 30 minutes looking out the window at squirrels because I got to the none pizza joke

My friend @ranma-official is a trans refugee from Russia, she's tough, motivated, adaptable and really really needs employment of any kind. Here's her linkedin (she's not out as trans yet except to friends and online); please share as widely as possible, and contact her with offers.

Once more with feeling, please! She's in Montenegro right now, locals aren't hiring at all, she needs ANY kind of remote work in any field. Absolutely crucial. beansidhe#3210 on dis cord, offers and specific suggestions only please

- fluent Russian, fluent English, limited German

Hi all, my life is pretty much on track right now - finally got a residence permit extension, will apply for a permanent one! Came out as trans to people in my Finnish class! Going to go through the legal transitioning process now that it’s easier in Finland! But financially I’m about to be in a hole between having to move to a different city for college, supporting @ranma-official (she’s in Montenegro now, deciding on future plans), and various living necessities, and I still gotta make it for like 3 more weeks until welfare finally pays out for a few months; after that it’s seriously going to be alright, but the wait has been interminable and I’m stressed as all hell.

I hoped I wouldn’t need to ask for help, and yet I do. I’d be enormously grateful if I could get some support? If you’re feeling kind, please send a little bit my way: https://paypal.me/EstherFiddler

Update: fuck me. I still haven’t got the goddamn welfare because there’s an interminable amount of delays in this maze (at least ~2 weeks out), and my plans to move have failed after a friend didn’t come through as promised, so I’m urgently looking for someplace else to stay after class, and the goddamn commute is expensive. All the bullshit just piles up; I feel like lying down on the floor and thinking about nothing.

Please consider helping out and/or boosting this if you like me or what I post: https://paypal.me/EstherFiddler

why does this whole scene look & sound like a YTP

This is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen.

“Why is he staring at me like that? I don’t like it

Oh hey someone other than me remembers the absolute fever dream that was the 1995 Operavox, aka “let’s rewrite classical operas in English and condense each to less than half an hour in length and make some bizarre animations too because why not”. The Englished lyrics drove me insane, it’s surreal.

The Magic Flute also had this design for Sarastro

who at one point inflates like a balloon while telling Pamina that women should listen to men

Rheingold decided to do the Star Wars opening crawl

and also Wotan and Loge looked like this

and Wotan chops off Alberich’s hand with the ring on it because why not

Turandot had the “painted on a scroll” look. Turandot’s collection of severed heads scared me as a kid though.

Carmen was uncomfortably rotoscoped

The Barber of Seville and Rigoletto were done in stop motion, which is either better or worse depending on how you see puppets

Rigoletto in particular is the most lurid thing ever.

Anyway yeah that opened up something I had repressed for years

I beg to the void-beast, dark-dragon with a thousand stars, light-wolf with a thousand eyes

I love you

I need you

We need you

Flood the world with madness

I climb a tower, battered by rocks and storm until I vomit angel feathers thick with sap, amniotic

I find the fae ones hidden in prey’s dreams and barter with the masks they did not wear

an angel would fuck a streetlamp and it would be nothing. it would be like a dog thoughtlessly rutting against a couch: pure instinctual pleasure chasing with something that may elicit but not share in your libido. but if an angel fucked a cell tower then viable offspring could very well result

this isn’t an arbitrary fact nor am i saying it in a fit of tryhard i’m-so-quirky-weird-internet-man pretense ok im saying that metaphysically speaking, if we were talking about the pure intent and function of angels and cell towers, they are absolutely in the same family of creature

people are asking “are you okay” and “what the fuck does this mean”. you are not contributing to divine phylogeny
