This is legitimately the funniest thing that has ever happened on MBMBAM

i can’t stand it when people complain about how expensive printer ink is, like it’s “”capitalism’s fault”“. do you have any idea how hard it is to milk a squid

Pornhub’s entire business model revolves around stealing content made by sex workers without their consent and profiting off it with no compensation to the workers who generate the content they steal. Sex workers are an incredibly vulnerable and stigmatised class of workers, mostly women, mostly younger, mostly not rich, with little recourse, socially or legally, against a massive corporation like Pornhub.

Pornhub relies on this, on how little you care about sex workers, to maintain a business based on stealing their livelihoods. Stop applauding a corporation that literally exists to steal from marginalised workers just because they have a competent PR department.

Fucking thank you

Happy Hanukkah to my Jewish followers. May the next several days bring you light and blessings.

For the 75th anniversary production of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma!, she loves her and he loves him!

Rodgers and Hammerstein’s musical Oklahoma! was revived by the Oregon Shakespeare Festival with LGBT+ Casting. “This revival made the musical’s primary romantic couple, Laurey and Curly, lesbians. It made the comic sidekick couple, Will Parker and Ado Annie, gay men (with “Annie” renamed “Andy”). It’s not just the two romantic couples in the show who have been reimagined. Laurey’s starchy yet sometimes playful Aunt Eller will be a transgender woman (portrayed by a transgender female performer). Ali Hakim will be a bisexual man who has a great fling with Ado Andy, but winds up married to a young bi woman named Gertie Cummings (who also fell in love with Curly). The director, Bill Rauch, felt Jud needed to stay a troubled straight man who, with no changes to the book, is angry that Laurey prefers a woman instead of him. “We wanted also to make sure that the world was not just LGBTQ-inclusive, but that it was clear that this was a community that was thriving, because there are straight allies. They are choosing in this small rural corner of Oklahoma to make a community that is inclusive and that is loving.””

Major changes to a show must be approved by the copyright holder. "Ted Chapin protects the catalog of Rodgers and Hammerstein with great ferocity, and at the same time, he understands the way great classics remain relevant is through thoughtful expansion and reinvention and experiment. So, I was really, really honored — not only to get the permission in general, but the fact that this is the 75th anniversary of ‘Oklahoma!‘ 

The story of the Tony and Pulitzer Prize winning Oklahoma! centers around Laurey and Curly, who are in love but are too stubborn to admit it to one another. A troubled farmhand, Jud, will do everything in his power to make Laurey fall in love with him instead. "I think this casting really excels in the love song ‘People Will Say We’re In Love,’ a beautiful love song that Laurey and Curly share, but their fear that people will say we’re in love takes on a completely different resonance and a completely different depth when it’s sung by two women, and the courage that it takes for these two people then, you know, finally when they sing, ‘Let people say we’re in love.’ The audience just cries and cheers, because it’s an affirmation in a completely different way.

let this become a trend

As U.S. President, George H.W. Bush, among other things, cut AIDS research funding, banned HIV-Positive people from entering the country, encouraged “behavioral change” to the exclusion of comprehensive sexual education, and extended/expanded many of the murderous AIDS policies of Ronald Reagan, for whom Bush served as Vice President. By the end of 1993, over 194,000 HIV/AIDS related deaths had been reported in the United States. Approximately 133,000 of which were during Bush’s one term as President. Between 1987 and 1992, the median age at death among men in the United States that died from HIV/AIDS related causes was 38; among women the median age was 34. George H.W. Bush died November 30th 2018 at the age of 94. May he rot in Hell alongside Ronald Reagan! 🖕

no one gets a pass

As music fans, can we talk about the uncomfortable but very real truth that many of the “rock gods” (steven tyler, david bowie, jimmy page, iggy pop, ect) have actively pursued relationships with young girls. That under the guise of free love, exchange of thought, and creativity these powerful men willingly engaged in a culture of drug use, violence against women, and normalizing predatory behavior towards girls. Saying that this was just “groupie culture” is an goddamn excuse. It’ll never be healthy for a girl who’s just reached puberty to have her first introduction into sex by powerful adults pumping her with drugs. No matter how mature these girls thought they were or how much they wanted to have sex, they were detail naive and vulnerable. These men preyed on them.

series of unfortunate events except with the mcelroy brothers and everyone still says stuff like “but you’re CHILDREN” even though they are clearly 3 grown men being sent to various guardians and boarding schools

Justin: *pointing at everyone* Olaf. Olaf. Suuuuuuuper Olaf.

Travis: But why would Count Olaf keep using such poor disguises and getting cau-

Griffin: It’s his fetish.

I have some questions that need answers

Can only Justin and Travis understand what Griffin is saying, like only Violet and Klaus can understand Sunny?

And 

Do the brothers have similar abilities as the Baudelaires? 

Like is Justin an inventor and is Travis a great researcher?

And is Griffin just really good at… biting things?
