one lone dead tree

omg we are both fucked in the head wanna make out

finished hannah gadsby’s memoir and she has a whole section on what she calls her wilderness years— that decade or so of time where she tried to muddle through one day to the next in a state of near total isolation and how her particular flavor of post traumatic attention deficit autism spectrum comorbidities slowly wrangled her into living in squalor while she drowned in shame she had no ability to understand compassionately and I was like oh yeah that’s age 21-28 all right.

the most insane double casting i’ve heard of is ophelia and horatio being played by the same actress. the implications of that drive me crazy

#to this day my favorite performance of hamlet i’ve seen is one where there were two hamlets#one was the dutiful son and the other was his vengeful id#and they split all the lines in the play depending on which hamlet was speaking#all the soliloquies became arguments between the two and it was SO good#the second hamlet doesn’t appear until hamlet’s father appears and tells him Claudius is to blame for his death#he opens to curtains and his first line is ‘Murder?’#and the other characters can’t see that second hamlet at first - just the initial one#until slowly throughout the play the second hamlet is the one they look at and interact with#until finally the first hamlet - the dutiful prince - is the one who’s ignored#anyway it was metal as fuck holy shit#i wish i could watch it again but i have no idea if it was recorded (via rythyme)
