So, if you don't leave here tonight seeing the world upside down and liking very much what you see and feel, then we here at Theatre Des Vampires, have failed in our jobs - which is, at the heart of it, to laugh alongside your misery while you cry and scream for more. Everything you're about to see… is real. Remember that when you leave here tonight. You are all… complicit… repugnant… and appalling! And, I love you for it. And I welcome you… even as you disgust me!

We need to be going door to door telling men about bisexuality. We need to start standing outside grocery stores

how do i respond to a friend who is certain that I should be contributing to palestine non-profits instead of boosting operation olive branch campaigns for individuals and families? Is it really more strategic to help an org than to send a person money?

Most organizations are run not by Palestinians, but by wealthy American & European people who represent the interests of their state more than the wellbeing and autonomy of the people being colonized. They offer aid conditionally, and deny it to the people who do not meet those conditions, and place firm restrictions on which kinds of resources they can access with that aid. That's before you even consider the percentage of the money that non-Palestinian employees for these organizations (particularly leadership) sop up for themselves.

Giving people in need money directly is *always* the best use of your money. It means less waste, less likelihood of supporting a shady governmental agenda, and even more importantly, it signals to the people who are directly effected that you respect them to make their own choices. It's far more empowering and respectful. The people on the ground in Gaza know best what they need, and they are in the position to access those needed resources immediately, on their own terms. Giving money to an org just makes them dependent upon the very countries that have colonized them.

(You should always give money directly to unhoused people for the same reasons, too).

So there are several species of frogs that have evolved to be so small that their vestibular balance system doesn't work well and I'm sorry but it's the funniest thing to watch them try to jump.

we should just do each others dishes more. there is no punchline at the end of this text post. dishes suck and they’re often the first thing that falls to the wayside when someone is depressed, or having a bad time, or just plain busy. i cannot tell you how many times i have just had my glass of wine or a joint standing at the kitchen sink - sure, we could sit on your couch, but if we’re just going to talk and vibe anyway, i might as well do these for you. it’s an act of simple love. i never feel more grateful than for the people who come into my home and share domesticity as friendship. it’s neither a burden nor a chore to help; theyre not my dishes. they’re yours. and we can do them together.
