Got the question "what kind of whale is Moby Dick about?" on a quiz and now I am again mourning the day the video of Dave Malloy singing Cetology got privated on youtube.

#and of course: white whale #yes porpoises they are whales too. woo ooh ooh #I read Moby Dick for that song's sake!!!#like I read War and Peace. sure. I already knew that 19th century Russian literature is The. Bomb.#but reading an 19th century American novel about whales?#only a Dave Malloy musical could make me do that at that time

Re-watching Parks and Recreation

#parks and rec #I hate him and not in a fun way

Deborah... if you want to date someone young, hot, and funny....Ava is right there

Me mid-ep: I still don't ship Kingdon romantically, but I like their dynamic and I see the appeal

Me at the end-credits: MENTOS LET'S GO LET'S GO LET'S GO

#I had a whole rant/semi-productive-discussion planned #about the ~discourse~ about the fandom I see on reddit #and how I just think a lot of it boils down to #people not realising a) that you can enjoy shipping and still engage with a show at other levels #and b) that shipping does not necessarily mean #that you think that the characters will get together in the media itself #or at the very least *want them to*#and also that you can be hyperbolic about a character #but also be fully aware that they're a complex character with good and bad sides #but now I'm just gonna be a Santos and Mentos stan instead

Ok, so the Octet cast is stacked, so like, it might be high profile enough that it might actually make the cinemas in places outside of the US and the UK, where I, like many other people, live? Like, I could see a Dave Malloy thing in a cinema???

And also the people involved will maybe like get the recognition they deserve???

#octet #and more importantly #I could like be able to brag about contributing to the kickstarter #for the original cast recording?

Much Ado About Nothing

#heated rivalry #but like genuinely. I love romantic declarations.#but I love just. being there. in simple acts/'favour's. even more.

Missing scene from Les Misérables.

Heated Rivalry quiz featured on Sporcle LET'S GO

#heated rivalry

JJ: Tu aimes les mecs? Alors, t'as un copain? Shane: Oui, Ilya!... quelqu'un

#not even sure if the French is accurate

Me at any interaction in The Pitt: Ah, I love this dynamic

#they're all great characters #And they all have great dynamics?#how do they dooo iiit

Thought of Great Comet again, and how I once had a plan to post something about "things Great Comet fans say when they read War And Peace for the first time". But I only got as far as:

"Pierre is 20 in 1805? So when he gets called "old man" in Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of 1812, he's....like 27??"

"Wait, in 1805 Andrey is married?? And his wife is pregnant??...oh. oh no."

#maybe something about Denisov and Dust And Ashes too #anyway #this made me want to re-read War and Peace #(I will not)#and listen to The Great Comet in full again #(I will)

Assigning Hollanov Classic Peter Forsberg Moments:

Shane: The penalty that won Sweden the gold in Lillyhammer in 1994 (ignore that it was against Canada)

Ilya: When he was very upset with the referee in the 1994 SHL finale (My poor translation of the most important part that does not convey the absolute meaning and beauty of it: I have to say, I'm deeply disappointed with Börje. He's so fucking bad. (You're disappointed with the referee?) Yes, he's so fucking bad, I would like to smack him. That's the truth.)

#heated rivalry #this is 100% for me but I am tagging it anyway.#Peter Forsberg my beloved one #(I say. making the active choice not to look into his politics)#Modo Hockey my beloved one #(he's currently participating in a popular Swedish show so he's on my mind #he's also my mum's favorite athlete in the world)#Youtube

#I have uploaded this before but I'm fairly certain I've deleted it #but the video the...video is from #(Diggiloo Diggiley)#has been on my mind lately and reminded me of this lovely iittle half-shit-post #les miserables #original French concept album my beloved one #Disco!Enjolras my beloved one

My head went to Ghost Quartet at the beginning of the latest THe Pitt episode.

Thinking about Robby favoring white men, and building them up and then dropping them when they disappoint him...is kind of a bummer...but when it implies that Ogilive will become his golden boy one day...it's kinda hilarious

#(I haven't watched ep 11 yet)#anyway. I love complex characters #grey stuff? awesome #but I love Mohan and hate her being treated horribly #I can be complex in my feelings about complex characters!!

With her seeing the tension with Santod/Langdon and hearing Santos comment about dating co-workers, I really hope we will see a scene of her thinking that Langdon and Santos dating and whoever she talks to about it being Horrified

#yes I am probably the millionth person with this thought

I hope that Santos goes to the furry convention, has a great time, maybe discover something about herself, and meets a cool girl who worships her.

#I will always think Santos deserves better
