do we think a drag number on the horrors of censorship is topical or is that going to be too heavy-handed for the drag show
#i have a really cool costuming idea#i wanna do a plaster mask of my face and censor progressively more words of the song as the number goes on#and when the censor happens (probably a beep noise)#i can put up the mask as though its been omitted both from the lyrics and from my capacity to perform it#i have to do all the musical arrangements and costume design this weekend though which will be a lot of work#and i'm moving back to university 8 hours away. sigh#where does the time go?

however ive decided i'm done being a nightmare, she's very very nice to me. time to make fewer age-related jokes. i'm leaving for university again in a few weeks and she got me this copy of the symposium that's illustrated and really pretty and i was so delighted i almost started crying and my first reaction was "all my other plato books are really ugly, and this one is so beautiful" and she laughed (she also loves books and was emphasizing how important she finds having beautiful copies, but all of mine are very secondhand and occasionally look chewed on bc i carry them around everywhere). i'm really going to miss her while i'm gone, she is good to me in a way i wasn't aware people could be, and i really like spending time with her
I was staying the night a few weeks ago with the lady ive been going out with and she was holding me and said something like "where has time been keeping you from me 🥹" which on the surface is very cute but the answer is that basically before now i was in high school. a few years ago i was learning what algebra was while you were paying off a mortgage. i was not legal. girl please 😭she was telling me about some visit to the art museum that she did during one of her corporate jobs and i said "i was in middle school then :D" and she looked like she was going to scream. this has become fun and sport for me. remember kids: one must amuse themselves
#i'll post some of the illustrations in a bit but they're not really of the characters (devastating) and more the ideas of the speeches#BUT there are little margin notes that are really really cute

#i should stop biting the hand that feeds me but you dont understand. its so funny#i also forget that my lifestyle is problematic bc i was drinking with some random people the other night and i explained it#and then someone gave me a full thirty minute lecture about how she was “really trying to be more accepting of others lifestyles”#asdjhkjf like what?? thank god i was drunk for that idk that i couldve stood it sober

#About Time#idk how it has 4 to 5 stars#i fucking hated it so bad i would like to rend the director limb from limb. it was objectively not good#the dialogue was tacky. the jokes were unfunny and fell flat. the cinematography was mid. the plot is creepy and fucked up#why is anyone pretending this is good. blink twice if you need help

Alcibiades will come to your party already drunk, take over as host, deliver a heart-wrenching but also entertaining monologue about the guy he's been in love with for like 15 years, then bitch and whine and suggest a threesome.
#let him have his goddamn threesome at that point. or at least let him monologue more he deserves it

#trying to imagine which dialogue this would best fit into#probably something from the four erotic dialogues tbh. or the charmides#which isnt an erotic dialogue but i almost want to class it as such due to the first scene alone

My final verdict upon waking up: it definitely looks DIY but ultimately i think i'm glad? I've been inspired to try to grow my hair out a little (it was cut really short before) but I absolutely do NOT want bob territory. So the front is short now and I can safely let the back and sides grow with their layers and it should never become a bob 😌 hopefully
Its almost 1am you know what that means!! Very ill-advised scissor haircut time!!
