“We Sing It Once A Day, Not Twice”

Some phantom pen scribs from my sketchbook 🥀⭐️🌙

If Hadestown has a moral, she says, then it’s “you have to try, you have to have hope, not because success is a given – it’s not. Orpheus fails. We heroicise” – here she breaks off to apologise that jet lag has led to her making up words – “we heroicise Orpheus not because he succeeds but because he tries, and that endeavour alone is worthwhile. How to live, and not merely survive, is to believe things could change.”

I feel like Putrice and Rancilda are really clumsy in human form, and because of that they both fell down the stairs at least once at the ball.

autistic person x autistic person is the only ship to ever exist actually

I think for a lot of white people, when you call them out on their casual racism (microagressions and non-overt things), they see it as a case of hurt feelings from your point of view as opposed to a discussion of harmful practices that aid the vehicle of racism. So in response, they take it as a personal attack, rather than a learning experience, and go on the defensive by bringing up a time that you made them upset as leverage. Or they defend their actions by doubling down on the behavior at hand and dismissing your criticism as over sensitivity and emphasizing their “harmless” intent. And I think that is one of the reasons why it’s so hard to address casual and interpersonal racism with the general white population (and also other poc tbh).

Jonah Magnus being irish whil me hating the irish is honestly great cus I can imagine him trying to hide it while everyone is completely underwhelmed by his secret

My friend's headcanon of Jonah Magnus (and by extension, Elias) hating Irish people is so ingrained into my mind that I actually thought it was real and spent ages thralling through the wiki to fact check it

you gotta be as gay as possible on the computer otherwise alan turing died for nothing
