Anyway 2025 Operas I Saw Ranking:

1. Rigoletto (banger)
2. La Boheme (don’t care about the plot, love the music)
3. Parsifal (weirdly sparse music in a way that really works?)
4. Idomeneo (I get why this isn’t one of the Big Mozarts but it still rules)
5. Dead Man Walking (I wanted to like it!)
feels fucked up that Queen’s Impatience is present in the Sealed Forest in Against the Storm. Lady, I’m not asking you to fund my expedition long term, I’m trying to reforge the fucken seal! Don’t get upset with me for taking my time! It’s not my fault all those villagers starved to death

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

one of the things I fucking hate about Reddit and Discord (and really, social media overall) is the way that people treat every statement or discussion as a request for advice. I think that behavior is extremely demeaning and destructive to the capacity for interesting and varied conversation.

Thoroughly enjoyed Parsifal at SF Opera. Been listening to clips of Tannhauser and Die Walkure all day and I deeply regret to say I may be entering my Wagner Era.

My most woke opinion is that "woke" at root is a beautiful concept: active socio-political consciousness in the context of the Black American liberation struggle. And the way it's been turned into a sneering pejorative is one of the ugliest things I've ever seen in Western political discourse.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The incredible, indomitable, inspirational Alice Wong has left us.

I'm so grateful to have known her on social media, and so grateful for all the words she shared with us and all the actions she encouraged us into making.

May we live up to her example.

(so you don't have to go to Instagram)

We are a social species, and we have always prevailed through cooperation. Caring for our sick. Raising children we didn't sire or birth because they were part of our village or extended family. We are not breeders and predators, we are communicators and survivors. We evolved to UNITE.

played through the updated Hades 2 ending and can confirm that Supergiant did improve things. I didn’t think the old ending was bad exactly but I was afraid the new one would feel rushed or forced or overly fan-service-y, but I think it’s just a strict improvement! Good job, Supergiant!

I’m told that the results of a single election reflect a perfect, unchanging, and inescapable spirit of the Volk, so I will expect us all to start respecting the American people’s desire for Woke Maximalism.

Capitalism destroys all culture with advertising. It destroys our outdoor spaces with advertising. It destroys interpersonal interactions with advertising. It destroys our ability to trust others with advertising.

There has got to be a human right to avoid ads.
