Oh, you mean the time Stevie Nicks spent several minutes straight-up murdering a man onstage with her eyes?
Without any hyperbole, that might be the greatest performance of any song ever caught on video.
I do forget that Wicked really isn't a prequel and actually runs parallel to Wizard of Oz (haven't seen the new movie yet).
There actually ARE multiple sequels to Wicked--I've only read Son Of A Witch, it's very good--but yeah I'm with you on all fronts here.
What's really interesting is that there are two different interpretations (portmanteau AND throwback to "Inde") and I've never heard either of them before.
The rich tighten their belts? No, that's totally unreasonable. Makes more sense to blame this on the working class, without wasting time on things like logic.
When something is all around you all the time, the only way not to care is to actively decide it's unimportant. I have to remind myself that, for most people most of the time, "not caring" is a passive thing, not an active choice. It's why I rarely engage in anything meaningful on socials anymore.
I'm not going to tell you not to get mad, or not to interact, or generally how to live your life in any way--but as someone who really struggles with the mental health toll of social media, please remember how little most of this shit matters, and try to protect your peace where you can. 🖤
That's not meant as a defense of the post, or anyone who liked it, and I can only imagine how infuriating it is to see people be glib and flippant and shitty about this stuff when you're up to your eyeballs in the reality of it every day. I DO get that part, as much as I'm able.
I cannot claim to understand what you're experiencing in all this, but please remember how much of social media interaction is *legitimately* meaningless. Out of 500 people who clicked the like button, I would be shocked if more than 5% of them gave it even a moment of critical thought.
I've got a Herman Miller Mirra 2 with a ripped mesh seat. Any advice for finding a replacement seat that won't cost twice as much as I paid for the chair?
