Justin McElroy talking about accessibility in live theatre (June 9, 2019)

[formichi]

[quasi-normalcy]

“Art is happening everywhere all of the time” but an awful lot of it seems to only ever happen in New York and London, doesn’t it?

[proudfreakmetarusonikku]

hell I’m someone who’s seen a LOT of theatre shows. we have a local theatre that does performances a few times a year and occasionally I’m able to get tickets when there’s a tour (even the closest location is like at least a two hours drive) and like. even if I’m actually fucking able to go to them the amount of times the Only Space with wheelchair access LITERALLY CAN’T see the fucking stage is wild. the last performance I went to I was seated somewhere where I wasn’t able to see anything except peoples feet unless the performers were on the far left of the stage. i was AT the live art and I wasn’t able to see it bc accessibility at theatres is That Dogshit. like even if somehow the geography and financial issues are somehow fine (they’re not) I think it’s Interesting how James completely ignored the disability part Justin mentioned. “art is happening everywhere” but no one cares to let people like me see it even if we’re fucking there and paid money for it.

Im enjoying the longevity of tumblrs recontextualization style of humor. a seemingly innocuous post followed by like "posts that a gnome would make" or like "are you a phone"

i was thinking that people don’t appreciate how overwhelmingly funny the death star getting blown up is; i mean, you know, on some level, this is just some teenager from space alabama who grew up shooting cans with a shotgun going, “yeah, you want me to attack the biggest military base in space history with absolutely no piloting-in-space experience? i can do that.” like back in space alabama luke flew the equivalent of a crop duster, maybe, but then the rebellion’s like this kid we met two hours ago, we need to put him in a fighter. luke has absolutely no hours piloting a fighter in space before this, and then he succeeds because he’s got magic powers, and the voices told him to. what is probably the most overwhelmingly enormous military base ever built in space with the most extreme firepower ever amassed in space loses in a fight to a guy who had less flight time than a fresh soviet pilot in WWII, this is already the funniest military victory in pop fiction, bar none.

but then you go to how luke wins, aside from the magic powers and the voices in his head; he convinces the local weed guy to get into armed conflict with the military, and the local weed guy shows up in the space equivalent of a VW bus that has a gun duct taped to it, and this is the rig that manages to shoot down darth vader. i should say that by this point in star wars, darth vader has been fighting in war since he was nineteen, and the first time he flew a fighter was when he was nine, he’s widely renowned not only as one of the best pilots in the galaxy, but also as one of the most dangerous people in the galaxy period, like if you let him loose on a battlefield everyone probably just sort of hangs back and lets him massacre everyone. because honestly they’re really just accessories in this. things like “air support” or “artillery” or even “other people with guns” aren’t super necessary because vader’s got the magic powers, the voices in his head, and also a sword that kills people, you know? definitely a couple imperial victories boil down to, “we just told vader to go to work, and then we found a mountain of bodies afterwards.” and this is the guy who gets creamed by a VW bus plus gun. han and chewie fucking scooby and shaggy his ass, and in legends vader ate shit so hard he spiraled out of control, crashed on a planet in the middle of nowhere, and promptly went kind of crazy and decided to slum it with - and i shit you not - a pack of literal space hyenas, who adopted him as their king. he then became the only fucking survivor of the entire ordeal. we really don’t appreciate how fucking funny this is.

[misty-anne]

Ok, but Solo and Chewbacca aren’t the local weed guys, they’re pre-nascar nascar drivers. Back when you ran from the police instead of round and round a track. That whole parsecs thing is space nascar.

[husborth-deactivated20241109]

no, no, no, at best i’ll give han and chewie credit for maybe doing the space cannonball run, but first and foremost they’re drug runners. they’re moving drugs. i think even “weed dealer”, while funnier than “guy who shuttles drugs”, is kind of inaccurate, because they seem to really be drug transport. the main goal of their outfit is less speed and more moving drugs, being fast and willing to shoot first (hah) is just how you advertise that you’re good at moving drugs usually, hence why han and chewie lead with that in ANH.

this is a pedantic distinction that only serves the purpose of making this even fucking funnier, because there actually is someone in the main cast of star wars who is very literally an ex space NASCAR driver and also canonically had an illicit street racing career, it just also happens to be darth vader. he had a really colorful life outside of, y'know, all the killing. but he left space NASCAR to escape violent exploitation and also study the blade and maybe the voices in his head as well.

[husborth-deactivated20241109]

the funniest joke in this post has become the long line of people dunking on me for not knowing how NASCAR started. a) that’s cool b) what a lesson in humility

gameoverse seems fun enough. but the cynical feminist in me can't help herself. all the male characters are like, cartoon blobs, which is contrasted strongly by the two major female characters in this pilot, both of whom are hour-glass shaped humanoid women who spend most of their screentime in swimsuits. and like that's not an outright dealbreaker but i *am* staring into the camera with my eyebrows raised.

[demilypyro]

idk i'm getting really tired of this "connecticut clark and malfina" type shit where male characters get to be Silly Abstract Little Guys but women have to be women shaped. it's this male-as-default thing that i hate where you don't need to add anything to a character design to imply male-ness but the woman better have wide hips and booba or else yknow like idk it's not outright Offensive but it is tiring

some people don’t deserve fanfics, much less for free.

also even if authors didn’t tag any specific warnings but they used the “creator chose not to use archive warnings” tag, then that is your warning.

“omg you should’ve —” no one forced your entitled ass to read anything. fanfic writers write for themselves and their own enjoyment. if you don’t like what you’re reading, quietly leave. ao3 is not an airport. no one cares about your departure so no need to announce it.

weird how abled people don't want you to have supports because it may Annoy Them. no, you can't have a shower chair, it'll get in my way. no, you can't put subtitles on, im here to watch a movie not read. because the needs of the disabled are somehow lesser than the wants of the abled.
