The Black Pearl? I've heard stories. She's been preying on ships and settlements for near ten years. Never leaves any survivors.

something really funny about how Projekt Funball was narratively and thematically very dark but it does not seem like it was designed to be deadly per se, while Darktow was very much designed to be lethal and did prove to warrant the deadly warnings to the cast before the show but ended up for the most part comedy hour

I didn't see it in the broadcast, though I think it IS audible, but in response to the Plank King's first reply to Jester, Travis snaps his pencil. i can attest to it, as does someone else on Twitter. he threw the pencil into the crowd, and someone caught it:

Out of control Edwardian youths refuse to clap at production of Peter Pan, force distraught J.M Barrie to pull out rarely seen "Tinkerbell Fucking Dies" ending

[julianova44]

You probably know this but shitpost ruining fun fact for anybody who doesn’t:

When the play first was performed, JM Barrie et al were so concerned this might happen that they instructed the orchestra to drop their instruments and clap at this point, just in case

[lizardsfromspace]

I did not know this and I'm grateful for being informed

Peter Pan edited by Anne Hiebert Alton (2011)

(sorry to interrupt joke post but) this is true!

Children not clapping did happen too, (and some were even expected to have hissed, which was later written into the 1928 playscript and 1911 novel). But my all time favourite anecdote about it is from Pauline Chase (who played Peter)'s intro to Peter Pan's Post Bag 1909:

Children love to clap their hands at the play because then they feel that they are really part of it, and you can see them holding their hands poised ready to seize an opportunity. Their great chance is when I ask them to clap their hands if they believe in fairies, and so save Tink's life. But they are very wrathful if any one claps who has the reputation of being a cynic, and once there was quite an uproar in the front row of the dress circle because of a girl who clapped. Those about her pulled down her arms angrily. "How dare you clap," they cried, "when you know you don't believe in fairies!" There was one dreadfully hard-hearted little boy who came to the theatre not to clap. That was his object for coming, and he came round "behind" to tell me so in the middle of the play. His teeth were firm set. "I won't clap," he said doggedly; "I'm not going to clap." And when the time came he didn't clap; above the clapping of all the others I could hear him shouting from a box, "Peter, I'm not clapping."

(Tink was revived each time anyway)

[bethanydelleman]

I am a certified hater of audience participation but let me tell you, it is almost impossible not to clap during this scene. Even as a full grown adult.

Fjord and Jester having a bit of a rough couple months in their romantic life largely due to external forces. their wedding is almost wrecked by Isharnai wanting to eliminate everyone in Jester's life to have her for herself. they left without much resistance, and Fjord was glad to get out of the hiking day, but still, their honeymoon was interrupted because Caleb got himself possessed by a leech. two and a half months later, they're interrupted having morning sex to clean up a mess Kingsley made, which causes a domino effect in which they learn the Plank King thinks Jester was flirting with him and is obsessed with her, so he tries to kill Fjord to have Jester to himself and when that doesn't work, attempts to kill her so nobody can.

well, at least Jester got the treat of Fjord being really hot when jealous.

5001 being divisible by 3 doesnt feel right

Shortcuts to determine if an integer is divisible by:

This is a given.

If the last digit is divisible by 2 (a.k.a. even), then so is the whole number.

If the sum of the digits is divisible by 3, then so is the whole number. The recursivity of this means that if the sum has multiple digits, you can add them up again until you get a single digit and see if it's 3, 6, or 9.

Like the rule for 2, but check if the last two digits are divisible by 4.

If it ends in 5 or 0.

If the rules for both 2 and 3 apply.

No shortcut. Alas.

Like the rules for 2 and 4, but check if the last three digits are divisible by 8. (Yes, this pattern keeps going for 16, 32, etc.)

Like the rule for 3, but the sum of the digits (or the sum of the sum of the digits, etc.) must be 9.

If it ends in 0.

[k25ff]

There are actually several rules for 7 (there's a bunch of rules for all of these, in fact). Here's a simple one:

"Subtract twice the last digit from the rest, check if it gives a multiple of 7. Repeat until it's a small enough multiple for you to recognise."

Example:

92911: 9291 - 2 = 9289

-> 9289: 928 - 18 = 910

-> 910: 91 - 0 = 91

-> 91: 9 - 2 = 7

Therefore 92911 is a multiple of 7 (13,273 x 7)
