I am listening to Inception: The Musical RIGHT NOW.

And soon you will be too. This week.

It's really good. And having a bit of distance from it makes it even better.

IT'S AMAZING.

It's also a bucket of innuendo. Like, I keep almost sending it my parents, and then it's like "OH WAIT, THIS ENTIRE SONG IS ONE LONG GAG JOKE ABOUT FELLATIO."

So yeah. Happy Tuesday!

More later.

  • I have chosen to view this Swiss adventure on being on a mission to Mars. I have little exercise, variety of food, entertainment, or communications with the outside world. And I see the same people all the time, and it's very weird. Mars!

  • I really, REALLY, need to decompress, but I think I have to do work on various projects tonight. It's hard to find distraction here when I need it. I mean, there just isn't any, and without normal life as a mediator, finding a good place between asceticism and being a workaholic isn't really working here.

    One of the things that doesn't help is everyone else visiting is sort of feeling it too, so no one leaves anyone alone. So I feel both isolated and like I have no space. And I don't feel relieved when people offer to walk with me at night. I just feel like I'm not getting what I need.

  • If you are in the US and registered to vote, it's still early enough in your day to do so. Do so!

  • With 60 donors, Dogboy & Justine is at $3,045 in pledges, which means we've passed the 50% mark!

  • For the moment an injunction has been filed against the paper publishing lists of supposedly LGBT people in Uganda, alongside texts like "hang them."

  • Did you know that if you are a Wisconsin resident, go to a state with marriage equality and marry your same-sex partner and return to Wisconsin, they can fine you and throw you in jail? Yeah, neither did I, until [livejournal.com profile] keori posted about it.

  • 90% of northern Manhattan subway riders see rats on a daily or weekly basis in the system. Is it wrong that the rats charm me?

  • Remember all the terrible things I've said about my university experience? Well, have things changed or what? First publicly trans NCAA Div 1 athlete is on one of their basketball teams. If anyone can shed light on if he's playing for the men's or women's team or how the NCAA handles this, that would be useful, because the article is a bucket of not clear.

  • Every day there's like five new women on the list to play Daisy in Luhrmann's Gatsby (if that's happening, although it seems to be). How much do I think it really needs to be a name we don't know? Most of the names being bandied about don't disappear into their roles, no matter how good some of them are (women, of course, aren't really given permission to perform in this way in Hollywood, so this isn't a critique of these women either in terms of acting or in terms of the business of persona; it's just a thing). I hope we're going to be surprised.

  • So Merlin.... WHAT IS THIS, I DON'T EVEN.... it has these moments, where it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up, because there's just a perfect sync up between music and the look on someone's face and the camera angle... and then it just falls apart. OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN. Yeah, I got nothing useful.
