fucking unbelievable that lord byron wasn’t murdered. how. he was so fucking annoying. i would have killed him within minutes of meeting him
I love this so much holy fuck
Some favourite staging moments in productions of Shakespeare plays:
Clarence actually getting drowned in a barrel of wine on stage in Richard III; it was a small barrel, they stuck his head into it as he struggled, pulled him out for an instant as he gasped for air and screamed, his head was wet and sopping, his face all red
Macbeth clutching his empty hands to hold an imaginary child, casting a clawed shadow on the wall
Ophelia ripping out hanks of her hair to give to people during her ‘flowers’ scene (obviously fake hair in real life)
Benedict in Much Ado About Nothing hiding from Claudio, Leonato and Don Pedro, taking a swig from a can of beer that happened to be full of cigarette butts and spit-taking it all over Don Pedro and Leonato
who then awkwardly pretend to check if it’s raining
Angelo in Measure for Measure taking off a bloody cilice belt from around his thigh while saying ‘Blood, thou art blood’
Also a really good bit where Angelo shows up in a two way mirror later on when the Duke’s speaking to himself and cursing him; the Duke turns to point at the mirror and there’s Angelo, in the chain of office, pointing back, accusing the Duke as much as the Duke does to him
The moment in Julius Caesar where Brutus asks his servant Strato - who’s been sitting with his back to the audience and wearing a hat with a wide brim - to help him commit suicide; Strato stands while taking off his hat to reveal that he’s played by Caesar’s actor
(a collective gasp went around the theatre; really lent a whole new meaning to ‘Caesar, now be still. I killed not thee with half so good a will’)
After a frantic chase scene in The Comedy of Errors which ends with all the cast collapsed across the stage in exhaustion and the scenery itself falling to bits…a pair of underpants falls from the ceiling, and Dromio of Ephesus (who’d tried in vain to retrieve them at the start of the play) crawls over several other characters, seizes them and screams in triumph
Avatar Kyoshi said fuck them kids 💀
I mean, have you seen Kyoshi?
Happy anniversary <3
ah my favourite movie be gay do crimes
The fact that I can say ‘my sixteen year old sister was almost kidnapped by pedophiles today’ and a) it’s not the first time I’ve said it before and b) it doesn’t even get that much of a reaction, tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about what it’s like being a girl.
no offense but I heard the evil scientist say he likes studying me better than you
My mum: I’m not being over dramatic!!!
How she’s acting:
Seriously, Kyoshi is a badass Avatar.
Anyway, I got interested in knowing about other avatars before her and looked up Avatar Kuruk (he sucks) & Avatar Yangchen. Only a few details are available about her. But they are gold..
Look what I found!
Highlighting the important part just in case you missed
So, lets just say if kyoshi took control of the wheel, any guesses on what Yangchen was doing?
let’s take this moment to appreciate just what korrasami was able to accomplish- how they paved the way for most, if not all of the animated queer rep we have now; how they managed to become canon in a time when same-sex marriage wasn’t even legalized yet. say what you will about them, but korra and asami made history and paved the way for bubbline, catradora, steven universe, benroy, lumity and much of what we have now and i will forever be grateful
