Sweeney Todd

I'm seeing warnings about scammers trying to commission artists but the "reference sheet" for their character they want commissioned isn't an image but a .vbs file ("visual basic script"), and will run a script when you open it, probably to yoink your account(s), but I haven't seen this from anyone who's actually clicked it yet. Just be careful and never open a file like that, 'cause people suck.

Look, if you're starving in a post-apocalyptic wasteland and suddenly someone is like 'oh I have tons of food and it just happens to be meat do you want some lol' you CANNOT act surprised when it's people. You simply CANNOT.

5. how much did i even like kevin, really

save me characters doing fucked up things out of self-preservation…..characters doing fucked up things out of self-preservation save me………..

here’s to everyone hitting a low point after doing really well. you’re amazing and so strong and your hard work is not erased. you will find happiness again

being on the aro spectrum would be a lot easier if being single wasn’t made to feel like a literal death sentence

it’s all very well to say “friends are just as important as romantic partners” but in practice this simply is not the case lmao. you can share a flat with a friend but it’s expected that sooner or later that friend will meet someone and will move out to go live with that person instead. if you’re hanging out with friends you can bring your partner along but your friends can’t come on a date night with you because that’s third-wheeling and it’s weird. you can know somebody for most of your life and still be second-best to some guy they met on tinder 6 months ago. you’re meant to just accept without question the fact that your friends will prioritise time with their partners over time with you. being single is treated like a problem that needs to be fixed. we casually use expressions like “just friends” or “more than friends”. everything we read and watch reinforces the idea that romantic love is what gives life meaning and therefore your life is meaningless. i try to keep my chin up but my god it is bleak out there

barbers did a bit of everything back in the day, from haircuts, bloodletting, surgery, dentistry, etc, and it was mostly due to the fact they had such steady hands. It’s also why in the original version of the musical there’s the whole tooth pulling section in the contest against Pirelli (and let’s be honest, probably one of the reasons why no one figured out Todd was killing people for so long). Also, if you guys are interested in a more realistic Sweeney Todd, that kinda deals with all that, check out the 2006 BBC Sweeney Todd movie. Super fun watch.

"Kill them with kindness" WRONG. drop the opera house chandelier on them.
