It occurs to me to mention that I'm still alive and stuff. Hope you all are too. You can find me pretty easily on Instagram, Pillowfort, or Cohost if you're inclined. I don't post much but I'm there. Or you can just find me standing outside the Black Cap every Saturday 😄

WOW the end of an era

not in a bad way im glad you're dealing with it in a more sustainable way!!!!!!!

Thanks! Yeah, I’m somewhere between ‘I’ve betrayed my principles and therefore am a big failure’ and ‘This was a healthy and mature thing to do’, with a dash of ‘it’s just a website 🤷🏻‍♂️’.

idea: a musical version of the odyssey where odysseus’s men are a chorus and the suitors are a chorus

that could be pretty chilling because each chorus would keep getting smaller as its members die and in the end odysseus and telemachus are the only ones left, standing over the bodies in total silence

Massive tangent but this reminds me of a brilliant production of ‘Little shop of horrors’ I saw at the Edinburgh fringe in about 1998 and which I will talk about at the slightest provocation (as you can tell).

[Vague spoilers for ‘Little shop of horrors’.]

It was done by a small amateur youth drama group on zero budget. All costumes were plain black. The small stage was bare. When e.g. a coat-stand was needed, a member of the cast would ‘play’ the coat-stand. There was only one real piece of furniture, which was a black swivel-chair. Audrey II’s first incarnation was played by the youngest and smallest member of the cast with green spiky hair and sunglasses sitting in that chair.

But when Audrey II ate Orin, the actor playing Orin then took up position behind the actor in the chair and they started moving and speaking in synch. And after that, every time the plant ate a character, that character’s actor did the same. So the plant grew bigger and more unsettling and alien as the rest of the characters were killed, and by the end of the show the entire cast was Audrey II and there was no one else left.

I’ve finally given up and started reading Tumblr from more recent to less recent, AKA the way it was designed to be read, and I can report that a lot of you make more sense backwards than I expected.

Badly In Need of Help

Hey everyone, I’ve alluded to this before but – while I hate making these posts – I’m in a slightly desperate situation.

I’m Dorian, a Métis person living off disability support in Ontario, Canada. I do a podcast, @driveinsaturdaypod, with a friend of mine. Recently I had the opportunity to go down to Toronto to table with her at TCAF and that was really an amazing experience.

But it cost a lot of money I do not have, and now I’m in really dire straights. Once I pay my electricity for the month, I will have about forty dollars left in the bank, and I still have to buy groceries and account for some other expenses. I also incurred a ton of debt on my already overburdened credit card so we could print out things for our table at the con, and it’s gonna make keeping up with the interest even harder.

Here is my PayPal link. If I make about $100, I should be okay for the rest of the month. Anything above that will go toward digging me out of this debt hole, which would go a long way toward making sure I don’t end up in this situation in further.

I deeply appreciate any help I receive, and please do check out the podcast! Costs aside, it’s something I get a lot of joy from doing, and take pride in what we’ve produced.

Hi all, how’s it going? I’m attempting a speed catch-up from early February so my Liking will be a bit more erratic and less comprehensive than usual.
