crying at this 19th century depiction of a universal human experience: being hangry

you literally cannot ever imagine until you do it how insane it feels to have a job that involves standing up in front of a group and not only saying your blorbo’s name multiple times in a row but also teaching them how to play pretend WITH OR AS your blorbo

walk into work having a category 5 javert moment. immediately told oh we’re continuing gavroche auditions but today we’ll focus on the bit where he exposes javert as a spy. RUH ROH!!!!!

i feel like everybody no matter how much they love the brick has that one section they CANNOT get through bc it’s so tedious to them. for me that is the whole section where jvj is deciding whether or not to go and intervene in champmathieu’s trial. like babe the musical manages to get this dilemma done with in about 90 seconds of singing whyyyy are you still deliberating

like whatever i guess if you really want you can make the connection that somebody with milquetoast liberal opinions who only start chatting politics when they have something annoying to say is more likely to have a broadly apolitical blog theme, be that fandom or cat pictures or stim boards or whatever else, simply because most liberals & centrists have so few convictions that they simply have nothing to post about politically on a daily basis. but i'm still not entirely sure how helpful it is to uphold this idea that Fandom Blog inherently = Annoying Liberal when some of the most irl engaged leftist activists and organisers i know come on here and spend their time reblogging interview with the vampire gifsets like it's their 9-5 job

not to beat a discourse horse (dischorse?) that i & everyone else on my dash left to die peacefully like two weeks ago. but i feel as though treating "fandom blogger" as a distinct and monolithic category of person inherently connected to a certain immutable set of political views (when what you actually mean is "particular brand of milquetoast but vocal liberal who just happens to primarily use a website famous for its fandom communities for, yknow, fandom purposes") is a big part of why we now have people tripping over each other to prove they have hobbies outside of "media consumption" or whatever we're calling it now. like of course you're going to tie yourself in knots about whether or not you have Worthy Leftist Intellectual Hobbies if we're going to keep perpetuating the idea that to have a certain broad category of interest and post about it on a website catering to those interests invariably predisposes you to being a loud but misinformed liberal with no intellectual or emotional depth. it's like getting into a political argument and calling everyone with bad opinions "burger eaters" because you happen to be having said fight inside a fast food restaurant
