Joining the war on queerbait on the side of queerbait bc after a time you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical but is often true

[dominion-of-darkness]

when has queer love ever been logical? yearning is embedded in our dna, stolen glances and lingering touches drive our affections and we'd rather die for them than face the music. we'll have them in any way without ever laying a claim. nothing more than bloody handprints and bloody hearts.

The Australian Ballet is doing Alice in Wonderland again and on one hand I’ve seen it before, and on the other, their Queen of Hearts has my favourite costume in anything every

[the-bear-woman]

It’s just this and her court pushes her around the stage on wheels and every act it gets taller until she towers over everyone

[the-bear-woman]

Also in act 3 (I think) it swings open at the front and her husband is sitting inside reading a newspaper

[the-bear-woman]

I saw this again on Tuesday so here are some things I’d forgotten about:

This is the only Alice adaptation I’ve ever seen that doesn’t cut the caucus race

The mad hatter wears taps throughout and it’s so jarring and surprising it’s perfect

The executioner shadows almost everyone who dances with the Queen

Lewis Carroll is a character in the ballet and becomes the white rabbit who leads Alice into wonderland which is bad and wrong because Carroll is the dodo but does work very well

They started dropping rose petals from the ceiling onto the audience when Alice looked through the door to the garden and it was utterly magic

The Cheshire Cat is made of about 10 different puppets that dance around the stage

Which reminds me Alice is styled after Alice Liddell rather than the John Tenniel illustrations

I don’t think the king of hearts actually dances he just wanders around looking confused

here’s a video

more. (btw this is a parody/reference to the very famous “rose adagio” from sleeping beauty)

[paraphernaliawagon]

the Caterpillar is pretty neat too

(all of these videos are from the Royal Ballet’s productions in 2014 and 2017)

[catrinecat]

Finally an adaptation that makes feel like I’m going to have stroke, it’s perfect

[themummersfolly]

This looks fucking bonkers, I love it.

I took my nephew and niece to their first event when they were… five and seven? They each picked out a heavy and a rapier fighter to cheer on (we made favors for them to give as part of the Plan to Keep Little Kids Entertained™). They interpreted this to mean that they were to LOOK AFTER these fighters and spent the remainder of the day taking them water and sharing goldfish crackers with them.

You don’t know happiness until you see a little kid hand a Knight an Uncrustable and have him devour it gratefully.

still thinking about the interaction I had while grocery shopping on the weekend, when we got to the milk isle a worker was just starting to load up the fridge so we asked if he could just hand us a jug right, and then when he did my mom went 'nice and fresh!' you know small talk and the worker stopped. took the milk back out of my hands. and said 'fresh? I can do better.' and then walked into the back of the store and came back a few minutes later with....I guess, better milk? unreleased milk? premium store brand milk advanced copy???
