wait do you have to have an expansion pack for this or can sims just try “convert to vegetarianism” as long as they have that trait?? I have never seen this before.

the city living expansion pack has the 'vegetarian' trait and any sims with that trait can 'talk about vegetarianism' or something like that. it doesn't actually convert anyone to vegetarianism from what i've seen. i think it's a poke at that one vegan person everyone knows haha. aka the one that brings up their eating choices every moment they can.

Coriolanus read-through No.1: Sunday, May 17th

Ready for the first read-through of Coriolanus this month?

As you can see, most of you are quadruple-cast because there are just so freaking many small characters. As usual, you can look up the lines of the characters here, but beware the differences in names. The character names listed below all go with the Folger Edition, so alternatively you can simply do a Ctrl-F there. If you’re in any doubt, please ask.

thewobblehypothesis said: ok yes I get what people are saying about “mon petit chou” but the thing is I don’t see Dean calling Benny that. It’s a very cutesy kind of name. I could see him saying “cheri” as a slightly cutesier version of “mon cher” though

It would be Benny calling Dean that though (unless you just typo'd) so would he still probably not say it? I'm writing an arranged marriage + royalty AU if that, idk, adds anything to their characterization that might tip your mind one way or the other. What adorable term of endearment would be suitable for a prince I guess? Unless Benny only calls him that in private in which case I suspect it probably wouldn't matter.

um yeah it’s just gonna get worse from here on out so get prepared for that

im so annoyed bc he spends a lot of the time treading the line between distasteful/'politically incorrect' and actually offensive, so occasionally he'll say something and im like 'not cool. time out. go sit in the corner.' and its no big thing, but then that whole deal was just so completely over the line  like i was not expecting that shit ugh

if it gets worse then that's fine, i can accept a character being a gross person if that's just how their character is, but like. im mad that i grew 2 like him & then 'surprise! ur fave is a bin bag!'

Read the Guidelines. And I'd suggest using the Folger edition of Richard III, so that everyone is on the same page. You can download a pdf from the website or read online.

It's quite a big play, so be on time, be prepared, and double-check your parts. Good luck!

thewobblehypothesis replied to your post:this is me just rambling about asexuality and me...

Pretty much this. All this is me/stuff I’ve done/thought and whatnot. Just why does sexuality have to be such a confusing topic? Thank God for the internet though. Seriously super helpful.

i've got to say surrounding myself with people on the internet who share the same experiences (though a lot of it was on accident haha) was really beneficial. knowing is one thing (and thank God for google and the likes b/c while i clearly found out in some way, what i knew was so wrong haha), but being able to read something and think, "yeah me too" has been so nice.
