So who’s doing a podcast with David and Michael about how they died 10000 times on stage in 2023/2024? Like here is an excuse to get them together and chat with them about stuff.
These two geeking out together would be a joy to watch/listen to.

So after missing out on Michael at first and extending my trip twice and buying ultimately SIX tickets to Nye to make certain I could see him perform and spending so much time in the Understudy pub and by stage door I'm sure the NT people never want to see me again lol on my very last night in London, I finally got to meet him.
I was so nervous and shaking so bad I could barely speak and didn't get out everything I wanted to say but I think he understood. And I'm just grateful for the opportunity and that my persistence paid off.
Thank you so much Michael for everything that you do ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

How was Nye?
Michael sheen was amazing to watch act live in front of me tbh it wasn’t a play i would normally go to since it’s about the nhs and as a non-brit i don’t feel that much of a connection to it. But what a force he is to watch! The sheen feet out the whole time too. The sheet. All respect to him.
There was also a memorable moment where like just as the musical number was about to start there was a technical issue so there was a bit of music and michael started clicking his fingers but then froze in place still clicking (he’s a professional 💅💅) while a lady explained there was a technical issue… like watching an irl glitch happen lol

It happened and I couldn’t be happier. His performance was amazing to see live, and we were so close to the stage. The production as a whole was beautiful and fantastic and I highly recommend everyone to see it. I knew nothing about Nye Bevan going in or much about UK politics, let alone the NHS so it was incredibly fascinating to see this man’s life story in such a stunning visual way.
I didn’t even know when I bought the tickets it would be a possibility to meet him. But thanks to all the pictures posted on tumblr I knew I had to try. As everyone has said, he was incredibly nice and patient. He mentioned he was a bit sick so it was an honor and amazing that he spoke to everyone. I had him sign a print of one of the portraits I drew of him, and I also gifted him a print as well.
I will forever run my interaction with him through my head and pick it apart, and I’m trying not to do it and to just enjoy the moment. I said his production was amazing, and that I also really enjoyed The Way. My husband pointed out if we had hung around to be the last maybe we could have spoken more with him, but he looked exhausted so I would not have wanted to impose anymore than I already did.
This trip as a whole has been exhausting but this was the reason we came, and I’m so glad we did. I hope I get the chance to see other actors whose work I enjoy on stage live one day. Might have to make it a point to always see Michael Sheen live just because he is so fantastic. We’ll see how my life goes, for now I will cherish this moment forever.

Here's a map of the original names of Palestinian cities before its colonization.
Tumblr media
Why does it matter to know this? Because changing the names as part of colonialism is not new in history.
Tumblr media
Learning about the history of colonialism and imperialism is important. When we say educate yourself on these matters, it's because you need to learn to recognize patterns and prevent them from reoccurring.
The idea of the West being civilized is all a sham. The idea of Arabs being terrorists is a mere lie similar to the endless lies that have been told about Native Americans and many other indigenous groups.
If you're going to use the word 'terrorist', it's about time you use it on the real enemy.
Free Palestine.

I’m not breaking any new ground here, but it’s obvious that the peak of novelty New Year’s Eve numerical eyewear was 2000-2009

10/10 for legibility, visibility, and typography
for years now, this industry has been stubbornly clinging to an idea that has become too cumbersome. if you will indulge me, I will now rate 2023’s new designs:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
5/10 best I can say is “it gets the job done.” it does clearly read as 2023, but the typography is bad & the visibility leaves much to be desired.
Tumblr media
2/10 happy 20?3, i guess. they started with a decent font, but these are illegible and everything about the eyehole placement sucks.
Tumblr media
6/10 hear me out: this is an okay compromise. it’s a cop out, sure, but it’s a viable alternative. it satisfies the basic requirements of legibility, visibility, and typographical acceptability, yet it lacks all whimsy. this feels like when you don’t do a project the way the teacher intended but you pass anyway on a technicality. this isn’t school, though, so i’m failing this design.
Tumblr media
1/10 come on, guys. if you’re going to use the top of the 2 as an eyehole, at least use a font with a more open design, perhaps something art deco. at least when you look in the mirror with those LEDs directly in your line of sight, you won’t notice how bad the glasses look.
Tumblr media
7/10 now we’re getting somewhere. like the first design, it uses the 3 as the second eyehole but it does so without compromising the shape of the number. unfortunately, the lack of outlines does negatively affect legibility and there may be some visibility issues for the left eye.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
9/10 this is as good as it’s gonna get, folks. an actual graphic designer was clearly involved here. the typography is appealing, the color works, visibility looks good. nicely done.
Tumblr media
-1000000000000000/10 :(

another year is ending and I want you to know that it is okay if you:
have not healed from the things that happened/did not happen from six months ago. just because the year is ending it does not mean your grief is too.
don't have any "fun" NYE plans to ring in the new year. this life is yours to live across days and months and years, and you can celebrate days other than the ones heavily marketed and shoved down your throat to shroud you in severe FOMO.
have no resolutions or goals for 2024 laid out in elaborate lists or shared on social media or with your friends. you are braving through this life trying to do your best every day and hold the fort and so of course you know, deep down you know what is needed from you for you going forward and of course you are going to work in that direction. good luck love.
have not become a "better" version of yourself by any of the tangible or conventional measures. that kind of bettering is mostly to serve others, not yourself.
are not happy with yourself/your life as it is now. you're a work-in-progress, remember? and if you're progressing in a direction you do not like, then it's time to change the blueprints and the strategy.
take time off social media around this time to protect your mental health and whatever little joy you have managed to keep.
don't want to spend too much time reflecting on how this past year went and doing various forms of 2023-wrapped. again, it's your life. you can also revisit this year in memories and pictures and feelings whenever you'd like. it's not like you don't still visit 2012, 2017, and 2022, right?
feel disconnected from your friends, family, lover. I know this is "ideally" a time to be celebrated with your loved ones. but life is not ideal, is it? it's just life. and if right now you are not feeling the love, the joy, or just don't have the headspace or social energy to engage , that's alright.
are finding comfort in simpler things like a TV show from the 90s or that book you first read at sixteen or that slice of strawberry cake or a random post like this you come across.
don't feel hopeful, encouraged, or excited for 2024. given everything that's happened in the last couple of years, on the macro and micro level, it's only natural for you to feel weary as well as wary. when the good things happen, when the healing happens, when things begin working in your favour over time, you will automatically feel all those things. it's okay if until then you choose to be neutral.
