So What Do U Think About Plays

so what do u think about plays

i like how in a theatre time and space are necessarily metaphorical. i don’t like how plays always have to begin with someone walking onstage and talking. too many directors try to work around this by having someone walk onstage and brood in silence for a moment before talking. this is worse. 

I've just been informed that a goose flew into an overhead power line in my parents' village this morning and caused a power cut. If that helps at all

On my way out this morning, I saw a swan swoop down and bully two geese out of the canal lock

On my way back home, I saw a heron standing watchful over the empty lock, and a goose on the towpath with a fuzzy gosling tucked under its wing

Bird augury side of tumblr, what do these omens signify?

CW: abuse

To me, the Sith have always been about power, about manipulation, about abuse. They offer false hope as a lure to ensnare people when they are at their most vulnerable. They offer you what you think you need while gutting your support system, isolating you from those who could pull you back above water. Before you know it, the decisions you say you are making are no longer your own. And so, the visually brightest scene of the episode becomes its darkest moment thematically.

I am amazed that Star Wars continues to tell meaningful, complex stories about survivors, those who are able to liberate themselves from the confines of interpersonal and systemic abuse, as well as those who are unable to break free… yet. 

This is why hope is so fundamentally important, not just in Star Wars or in storytelling, but in the real lives we lead. There is always, ALWAYS hope. 

And may the Force be with you.
