when the "i always thought i could be a good dancer* if i wanted to be" hits 😭😭😭

*be in a loving committed relationship and build a home together

#and like the thing is. he DOES want to be. he wants it so much. #he just. wants to DANCE #(have a loving domestic life) #he danced with thee lamp! (cas) #after garth /taught him the moves/ aka showed him an example of what dean could have and could BE #and then dean leaves garth's house and looks in and sees him and bess dancing together and he. he WANTS that. he YEARNS. #i feel fine. i'm fine abt it. it's cool. it's chill

gods at least besides everything else that has been going So Wrong, Suzy has been doing so SO much better

#my life #my cats #she's more energetic than she's been in at least a full year #like I would have gladly taken 'improved since the hospital to pre hospital levels and better bloodwork' #but she's excitedly hanging out looking out windows #and runs up and down the stairs again #and she's been jumping up onto the table a BUNCH from the floor even #she'd been using the drawers to jump over when she did go up which was way more rare #she does a little dance when she trots around sometimes #like I can't believe I didn't notice she wasn't doing all this before #I just thought she was a bit sleepier in the winter time #and/or adjusting to the move less than ideally #but no we didn't just Save Her Life and are helping Prolong It A Lot with meds #it's clearly Improved The Quality So Much #and I'm so glad we were able to do that for her at least

why did i leave dance classes

#i did not like it but mom forcefully got me into one of them when i was a kid okay those classes were bad i admit #because she also got me into singing lessons at the same academy and that was. not good im sorry i do not sound good it was a nightmare #but then in seventh grade i again started dance classes and the exercises were ruthless but i had so so so much fun once i adjusted #because i got the hang of it and i was kinda good #it was so fun atleast something out of the house #but then we had one show and i left the academy or maybe the moved but i did not go back and i miss it so much #the two guys who taught us were so. idk weird and now that i look back at some things also kinda inappropriate 👁️ maybe idk #but other than that i had so much fun going out for practicing on the stage etc etc socialising too i miss it so much #it was mostly contemporary and western #dad used to say i should learn khatak too but then i used to hate it #if only i had given a chance to kathak and continued with contemporary atleast i'll have something 😭 #and yesterday i was thinking about that dance performance in school and i remember i did not want to do it because i was scared i had lost #that whatever. idk #i miss it now i'm the awkward dancing cousin at weddings because i hate everyone there and i lost the practice 😭 #they moved**

Still can't believe that my dance teacher was my gay awakening

#okay look #i didn't have like a moment of 'oh shit i'm gay' #but the first time that i was like 'oh she's pretty but not in the straight way' #that was because of my dance teacher #and that confused and threw me off So Much #cause i was like wtf wtf wtf what is this huhh?? #and then i felt a little weird about her for a few months #and then at some point it was fine too like it was never an actual crush i just thought she was pretty but damn #that was A Moment for little me #and then after like 2 years of thinking about it and looking at many pretty women i was like 'i think i'm bi' #and then came the strugge of 'am i actually into men??' and now i'm a lesbian :3 #so thank you to my dance teacher for doing that one random dance move which looked like Really Good and also threw me off for the rest of #that day #(cause i had like a little art ehibition thing from my school after my dance class and i could not concentrate on it because internally i #was like wtf wtf wtf what was that??? the whole time) #*exhibition #anyways #idk why i felt the need to tell this story now but i do think it's really funny in hindsight #lea's random thoughts #lesbian

Vladimir: Did you ever read the Bible?

Estragon: The Bible... [He reflects.] I must have taken a look at it.

Vladimir: Do you remember the Gospels?

Estragon: I remember the maps of the Holy Land. Coloured they were. Very pretty. The Dead Sea was pale blue. The very look of it made me thirsty. There's where we'll go, I used to say, there's where we'll go for our honeymoon. We'll swim. We'll be happy.

Vladimir: You should have been a poet.

Estragon: I was. [Gesture towards his rags.] Isn't that obvious.

Samuel Beckett, Waiting for Godot (1955)

#samuel beckett #waiting for godot #modern theatre #theatre quotes #1955 #modern drama #Godot had been written in 48 and 49 in French‚ and premiered in 53 in Paris‚ where Beckett was based #an english translation didn't appear until 54‚ and Beckett took the opportunity to make small edits and some significant substitutions #there were also edits for censorship (theatrical censorship being fairly draconian in 50s Britain; even a name like Fartov was considered #too much by the Lord Chamberlain) and once Faber published their version in 56 there were yet more changes and omissions #alas I picked up a copy on my way to work (for reasons‚ my job currently entails a lot of sitting around doing not very much) and grabbed #my old Faber edition (a corrected version wouldn't be available in english until the mid 60s) so I'm working from a bastardized text #actually Beckett would continue to tinker with Godot for the rest of his life‚ so the jury's out on which if any is the 'correct' text #nevertheless I'm having a great time. it's over a decade since i read this‚ as a lowly undergrad‚ and had my socks blown asunder #Beckett's prose has lost none of its magic; a carefully choreographed dance in words between two people who can't see their own moves #it's tempting to read all manner of subtext and innuendo into Beckett's minimalist dialogue‚ but the writer himself always strongly #resisted attempts at micro analysis; in fact he bored pretty quickly of the attention this play in particular seemed to earn‚ and would #repeatedly downplay any philosophical or political interpretations of the play. that's not to say those ideas don't exist or that those #readings lack merit; a play is almost by definition a political beast‚ a play of this kind in this era in this place and time particularly #so. but if Godot is any one thing more than others‚ it's a joyous examination of the art of conversation about nothing; more than any other #playwright (excepting perhaps Pinter)‚ you get the sense that every syllable was precisely and carefully chosen by Beckett‚ every word #carefully weighed and considered before inscription. perhaps then Godot is not a play at all; perhaps it is a poem #in loose free form‚ a sprawling poem of multiple voices in discordant harmony. or maybe it isn't. what do i know #I'm just a tumblr blog

i need to remember to draw scara in a compromising situation in tiny lil shorts tomorrow

#for now though i should sleep #i also did the rough lines for dancing with kaeya #genshin gives me so much inspiration #rossi how many boyfriends do you have in teyvat? #-sweats- ... next question #top 3 positions though go to kaeya tighnari and scara i think #lyney is moving up the pecking order #as far as developed selfship lore #i forgot childe!!! #he's probably tied with scara to be honest and sometimes that's a polyship #some others are just hard to place like zhongli I love him but he doesn't always take up a lot of brain space. he's also often put in a #polyship with childe #sorry i'm rambling #i'm very sleepy

Pt 10! (Very relevant to all their stories!)

#utmv #oc #utmv sans #utmv oc #goldinsanity #I think many of these could go into depth so I'm gonna speedrun #Orchid: Trained by Nightmare to Kill and Maim and also has a thrill for it #Stereo: Hated fighting for a long time but grew to enjoy it when with Reset/Orchid #Shotput: Trained by Dream and Killer to fight. thinks it's mildly fun but mostly only sparring #N: Thinks of fighting like a Dance since she can't die. uses it to come up with unique dodge-moves #Ichor: very good at fighting but saw too much war and bloodshed to really enjoy it outside sparring #Haphazard: Decent Fighter (Trained by Blue) but would rather talk things out (Blue raised this boy when Ink forgor about him) #Monochrome: Wasn't taught to fight (in case he rebelled) but learned from Orchid. not a fan of fighting at all (Scary!) #Reset: Technically trained to fight but can't do any real damage thanks to his magic. would like it more if he could draw blood #Pretender: Not very good at fighting. prefers luring in enemies and killing them before a fight can start. #Lost: Bro has memory issues. he doesn't have time to be fighting! he's trying to get home!!

thinking about this stuff just made me feel so damn old (and I'm only 32). like, when I was a teenager I couldn't just look at high quality pictures and especially not videos of any celebrity I liked. if it was music related and I was lucky (whoever it was happened to be popular enough in Germany), I might have seen a music video (and recorded it on VHS so I could watch it again). if it was an actor I could buy DVDs, at least (but that's not that easy if you're poor, and you also had to get somewhere where you could buy them in the first place).

the internet still kinda feels magical when I compare it to that.

#... whereas now I can just look at a music video in which Corey Taylor is pole dancing. any time I want!!! 15 year old me would not have #believed it #(and: I was definitely a good few years behind on what was the standard for that bc we had incredibly slow internet access until I moved #when I was 19. so yeah I literally didn't have access to any of that until I was basically 20. it's so weird to think about.) #like. I lost my fucking mind when I was able to buy a DVD with all HIM music videos on it. that was so cool to me. I watched that thing so #much. lol #also! the quality of everything was so bad compared to now. like. my TV was tiny and also shit. dvd quality is shit. you could barely see #anything! whereas now... (yes I'm thinking about Corey Taylor pole dancing again) #(and I've got an absurdly huge amount of pictures of [that stupid man that I like] just. saved on my phone. i can look at him anytime I #want. that's so fucking crazy. man I really am old.)

i have a tenrose figure skating au and i swear to god rotating the concept of fifteen and ruby as pairs skating partners is making me change the entire au. they would be so everything.

#fic talk #previously it was focusing mostly on tenrose but i think it would be a fun ensemble cast. #also i'm generally against having more than one doctor in one au because they're all the same guy to me #but i already have thirteen in here for the bit (the bit is she's ten's twin sister and she keeps telling him she has a girlfriend and he #doesn't believe her until he goes to a team event and thirteen shows up as yaz's date) #(because yaz is on the skate team) #so like at that point why not throw fifteen in there too #the base premise of the au is 'ten and rose get paired up as ice dance partners and both get massive crushes on each other but brush off #their chemistry as like. the chemistry they have to have if they want to win at competitions' #and they're like. terrified of ruining their dynamic as ice dance partners so they refuse to make moves on each other #but i think we could throw some more stuff in there. INCLUDING fifteen and ruby as pairs skaters <3 #i didn't have any pairs skaters in the au yet and i kind of wanted them so. :3 #i don't know very much about figure skating by the way but i learn more every minute i work on this au #if i make it more of an ensemble cast i have to think of more subplots but THAT CAN BE ARRANGED.

Gradually shifting into a sunnier mood and it feels kinda good 🌞 I also managed to fix an advancing mechanical/electrical issue today with my bass amplifier which was becoming a bigger annoyance by day :/ cheers to diy'ing household (or traditionally masculine) issues as a woman, forever

#*I actually had to solder some wiring for the amplifier repair lol. I'm invincible 8) #Sometimes - catalyzed by other stuff - the past plays on a loop until it challenges/destroys my otherwise consistent sense of self-worth #It's a tough cookie. all I need to do is stay grounded + turn my face in the direction of the present and future instead + remind myself I' #not defined by it. for I've evolved brand new and my current life + the opportunities I have right now kick ass #it's all cool! I deserve the best so that's what I'll be after (of course all whilst sharing the goodness - #because I want to engage the people I love in the fun much as I could. Shine a light & shine together & learn from eachother) #Take a deep breath. Go outside. Build connections. Bust some dance moves in my kitchen. Smile because life's forgiving like that #personal #also working out really helps get that fine ass sense of self-worth back with easee :)

#SALAM SALAM SALAM #this is really big for an arab female artist and i'm simply proud #myriam KILLED IT #obsessed with her part. her presence. her moves. the CULTURE. the sound etc etc #also i feel mad seeing the amount of sheer vitriol and misogyny amid at her — mainly from arabs because she's apparently copying shakira #like what are they on about.. i'm sorry but having curly hair and knowing how to belly dance isn't exclusive to shakira (whom i understand #that she's proud of her Lebanese heritage and has been integrating it into her style since forever) #but also myriam IS an arab lebanese artist so i don't see the point of her being torn down for celebrating her very own culture #beside it being misogyny. #sigh. anyway #the song is catchy and the trilingual fusion an catch phrase are cool — fits the anthemic universal feeling of the world cup #also i love zumba so much and i know zumba instructors are loving this because of its rhythms — can already draw the choreo in my head!! #tukoh taka #myriam fares #world cup

This is just going to be me being sad and venting about my day struggling with the fiberglass dust so feel free to scroll by, I won't judge.

I've spent hours trying to vacuum up the fiberglass dust and I feel like I've barely made a dent. I'm throwing out a lot, and a lot of it I could handle, like my old comfy recliner that probably wasn't going to fit the room all that well, or my little fabric end tables.

But some, like the little paper and fur lion puppet my mom got for me when she visited China, were far too fragile to clean with a vaccuum or lint roller or damp rags. Worse, things like that are irreplacable. My mom's retired now; she doesn't travel for business anymore, so there's no getting another puppet with that kind of meaning. That's the kind of stuff I cried over while throwing away.

#pasta life update #i had a very depressing day throwing things away #i cried a lot today #for some reason finding my little beloved daredevil beanie knocked on the floor and covered in dust just broke me #i'm going to try to save it like my shirts but i don't know #losing my little lion puppet hurt #he looked like one of the lions you see during the lion dances around the chinese new year #had little bells so he'd jingle when you moved him #and i hurt so much at the end of the day #because disability and chronic pain don't mix with trying to clean all this up #but unless i can find some cleaning company that'll handle fiberglass i don't have much of a choice #i wish i could curl up in my own bed #at least i accepted this is going to take a while and set up an air matress downstairs #sorry for all the venting #i'm just tired and achy and depressed and needed to spill somewhere

all this time i've been covering my ears going LALALALALA pretending that ~virtual idols~ don't exist and this is what you do to me? and hongjoong and yunho? please never fucking do that again it's an insult to them and real life actual human idols in general

#not to mention that like... with the introduction of virtual idols who aren't REAL and don't have feelings... idols you can't hurt and whose #rights you don't have to respect... i don't know how korean kpop fans will react and i dearly hope the vr idol thing will flop hard but who #fucking knows with a/e/s/p/a being wildly popular #in recent years with the appearance of those apps that have you pay money to 'subscribe' to idols' posts or for a chance of them seeing and #replying to your message... as though the relationship between fans and idols wasn't already transactional as fuck. as if some fans #weren't already treating idols as vending machines for fanservice #NOW you're adding glorified 3d models who could technically do everything and work all day. i would love to be able to confidently say #it's not going to affect real idols' working conditions but i'm not that optimistic #not to mention that like... it's such an obvious cash grab/save move that i'm nauseous #japanese idol franchises at least have them be actual characters who interact with each other and have backstories. they exist WITHIN their #story. when i saw that fucking girls something thing he/ejin participated in i was so embarrassed because its like. oh shes from a planet #of mice and she dreams of building a second moon out of cheese. this kinda level shit. it's pathetic #and poor hongjoong and yunho have to fucking. michael jordan in space jam this shit when they just signed up to sing and dance #honest to god i hate it so much. i want to say make this shit FLOP but everyone said the same thing about n/f/ts and yet korea lived it for #like a year. headdesk as they used to say #shrimp thoughts #also they're just ugly.

#maybe I'm spoiled when it comes to performances and the like but um. this dance thing was really just three minutes and then it was Over?? #like yes i knew this. obviously. but idk #i was so hyped for it and then i felt kinda let down? #also maybe bc i made a mistake halfway through and then still had that in mind bc it was over so soon after? ifk #*idk #but i don't think i actually care so much about that bc i doubt anyone in th audience noticed and wr got praise from everyone #but anyway. thr other girls all still really hyped and enthusiastic and I'm trying and failing (tho still faking) to match that energy #like yes it was cool! but it wasn't Much?? #did show me i really want to be on stage again tho #maybe I'll look for some dance thing with more regular performances where i move next or amateur theatre idk #i doubt there'll be circus:( espesh there's never anything with aerials except sometimes (still rarely tho) professional stuff #x #tag later
