Strawberry Jam

open letter to any celeste people go install everest and then go download strawberry jam if your computer can handle it which it most likely can. i think objectively the best mod in many ways just based on its diversity and breadth of skill. not necessarily like "top ten rooms ever" but overall it just works so well. over 8 hours of original music, 5 difficulties (6 really cuz the crackeds and gmhs go above for sure), over 350 contributors and over 110 individual levels. its like the quintessential mod now. and when ur done do 100trap golden to hate celeste again

vbyss is good, 7d1d is always a classic, spring collab is cool to get back to, but sj takes it full ladders higher than the few rungs of sc and others imo. solar express might be my favourite map ever but like theo gp is fun to me somehow. anyway im gonna get back to expert silvers maybe ill hate it like a normal person by then :3

good luck to anyone who gets it, i promise its worth it to play it through to the end. if you dont know how to set up mods go to clord.

if you havent done all vanilla chapters definitely do that first though dont just be like "hey guys i did 4b 5b was too hard so im going to try some mods yay yay yay" you will waste your time. be patient with basegame, then go wild with mods

this was kinda a dumb post but like i wanted to say smth abt sj just cuz its so amazing and like wild that it exists or that so many people would come together to make something like this. ill post dumb stuff abt it later maybe idk i havent opened tumblr in like 3 months until today

I'm NOT gonna say it again

SEASONINGS include herbs and spices, along with minerals and chemicals used to season food!!!! Salt, citric acid, and MSG, are all examples of seasonings that are NOT herbs or spices!

HERBS are flavorful leaves. Only. Leaves. Doesn't matter if its dried, fresh, whole, or ground, if it is a leaf, it is an herb

SPICES are flavorful parts of plants that are NOT LEAVES. These include seeds, berries, stems, bark, roots, flowers, buds... NOT LEAVES

THANK YOU

One thing I love about tears of the kingdom is that they have a mix of old and new music. Like the battle music from botw is so good but the buildup in totk’s is really really nice and I love the chest theme. I love how stables are the same but shrines are different (obviously). speaking of though the new shrine theme is actually good. Just mmmm I’m glad they kept the horse music and all that and all the new music is great and all the old music is obviously great and idk I’m just very happy about it :> still haven’t got to any 4 main villages cuz I’m moving kinda slowly but hopefully they have cool new versions of the theme even tho that’s kinda unlikely. Anyway that’s my rant mrrow

I feel like I need to tell everyone how brilliantly the Globe incorporated a deaf Gildenstern into the 2018 Hamlet and then force all of you to watch it

ok, so Gildenstern is played by a deaf actor, Nadia Nadarajah. he* signs all his lines, and either Rosencratz interprets for him, or the person he’s talking to says something that makes it obvious what he just said, depending. how each character reacts to Gildenstern is completely in-character and often hilarious

Claudius and Gertrude are intensely awkward around Gildenstern. they obviously don’t know BSL so they just gesture emphatically but aimlessly when they talk.

Hamlet, who of course is friends with R&G, *does* know BSL. he starts off by signing fluently whenever he’s talking to them but, as his distrust of them grows, he signs less and less until he’s only signing the equivalent of “fuck off” whenever he talks

Polonius just shouts really loud whenever he tries to talk to Gildenstern

it’s all brilliant and adds another layer of humor and pathos and you should all watch it

*casting at the Globe right now is gender neutral so I’m just going to use the character’s pronouns

[angualupin]

guys I know I’m wittering on about this but the thing I want to emphasize is that there is no tokenism here. they didn’t just shove a deaf actor into a speaking role so they could pat themselves on the back about how progressive they are. they went to the effort of fully integrating Nadarajah’s deafness into the story so that it not only fit organically within the narrative but actually enhanced it. watching Hamlet’s signing disintegrate as his trust in R&G disintegrates adds a depth to that storyline I’ve never seen before. Claudius has exactly the awkwardness of someone who thinks of himself as a good person and therefore thinks he’s being kind and generous with his accommodations for disability, but has never even once actually asked a disabled person what they need, which is so on-point for his character it hurts.

I know Michelle Terry gets a lot of hate mail for her policy of race-, gender-, and disability-blind casting, but fuck all those people. long may that policy continue.

the glenda jackson production of king lear on broadway did something similar with the Duke of Cornwall, and it was actually the best part of the play, imo.  because when Cornwall was speaking to Lear or to the Court, he had a sign language interpreter to speak the actual literal words aloud, but when he was talking to and conspiring with Regan, his wife, they were just signing back and forth with no translation for the audience, and it emphasized the intimacy between the two even as they turn against literally everyone else in the play, which was fantastic.

and the best part of it was, by the second half of the play, you were so used to it, that you didn’t even blink anymore when watching him and listening to the spoken words come from the interpreter - you just watched the actor playing Cornwall and let the words come from the other guy, but the guy kind of fades into the background.  it didn’t hurt that the actor for Cornwall was one of the tallest on stage, and had bright red hair - it was easy to watch him, instead of his interpreter.

which is why it was so shocking and so perfect when the interpreter is the one who kills him.

See, they folded the character of the servant who kills Cornwall into the person of this character who had been such a non-entity that you almost forgot he was on stage - until you realize, no, this is another person, and he’s been here, watching all this the whole time, and he finally gets to the breaking point where he can’t stand by and translate anymore, he has to do something to stop the cruelty he’s seeing, and it’s not just a random guy who comes in for the scene and sees them blinding Gloucester, it’s the man whose been by his side for the entire play, the man who was his voice who finally has a line of his own.  who finally speaks on his own behalf to say “no.”

and then, of course, he gets killed, but Cornwall dies in the same scene so it’s not like they need to get a new translator or anything.  but it was the most fucking brilliant choice i’ve ever seen re: casting in a Shakespearean production, and the rest of the play pales in my memory in comparison.
