December 27. 1888 the famous Italian Tenor Tito Schipa (1888-1965) was born. He was more then 50 years on stage. I have found this article in a Newspaper from Wisconsin February 1963.
He will be unforgettable with his beautiful voice.

Only honest answers. Open to anyone who -good for them - isn't it*lian, still any it*lian could spam it.
Other suggestions are welcomed on the tags, if someone is indecisive can put the various choices on the tags.

The gif system in this post, regarding the feudal alignments within fandom?
Every member of a given fandom identifies with at least 1 of the 10 gifs listed.
The meaning of each gif is subject to interpretation to some degree.
My reblog was meant to be funny, but the more I look at the thread the more surprised I am at the amount of truth I see in it. Tumblr is a strange and beautiful place.
for you @deadbranch my chrome queen
Tumblr media
I have prepared to flex my worthless and expensive af haha jk or am i dual anthropology and [redacted] degrees to conduct a completely subjective, PhD-level ethnographic study of branchy's gifset curation, please observe:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit A: writers and their sixth sense when they intuit me, refreshing and revisiting their blog daily to check for updates to that one-shot/fic/novel/12-part-apocalypse-opera (not even joking about that last one).
alternately, those weird fuckers who send in creepy boundary-crossing anon asks. i love to hate them but they're kind of an essential part of tumblr
Tumblr media
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit B: im convinced some blogs out there have excel spreadsheet JIRA queuebot steampunkesque contraptions running their shit because i have no idea how they make (and KEEP TO) regularly scheduled high quality posts??? a schedule??? on this HELLSITE? tumblr i love you i dont mean that on mondays
Tumblr media
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit C: antis. no further comments.
i freely block antiblogs and and any that are brimming with negativity/hate
Tumblr media
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit D: me, fanfic, and ao3, most days. no further comments
Tumblr media
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit E: me, my imagination, and my fictional harem of blorbos, most nights. no further comments as well.
Also basically 98% of tumblr as is widely known
Tumblr media
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit F: the caption speaks for itself. on tumblr exist still many bubbles of thought, ideology, poiesis, and praxis that go on as if impenetrable and untouched by a well-known phenomenon called Reality (also known as IRL, going outside, touching grass, etc.)
Tumblr media
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit G: hot people who post random face reveals. STOP TITILLATING ME (yes, I had to google how to properly spell titillating)
Tumblr media
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit H: the elder blogs. they post softly but carry big stick. they are the unspoken glue of their fandom communities. their fic/art/headcanon/etc. posts spawn a thousand more. thou shalt not speak a bad word against them. and yes, many of them are POC, so this gif pulls double duty, well chosen branchy my queen. and fuck i wish i could pull off hoops that big, anyway i digress
Tumblr media
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit I: smut writers. they are brazen. they are shameless. they are worshipped and adored. this is the aftermath of their posting after causing tens of thousands of simultaneous la petite morts as the french say (is it la or le idfk and im too lazy/sleepy to google it rn). absolute fucking bloodbath
Tumblr media
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit J: people who post their personal/professional/something-nal drama and air it out by tagging the larger fandom tags they're in, drawing in completely uninvolved (and often uninformed) people and getting these randos to do their dirty work for them
alternately, people who have zero interest or affiliation with said fandoms and their drama but gleefully follow along using the tags (nooooo i havent done that stop looking at me)
Tumblr media
I would like add one more if you don't mind:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exhibit K: cozy, safe, well-curated, moderated, well-established boundaried corners of fandom and generally lovely spaces like yours <3 and many of my other moots' blogs as well
also, catblogs

They could just come out with an infinite series of Untitled Goose Game crossovers and I would play all of them:
It’s a beautiful day for The Phantom of the Opera and you are a horrible goose
It’s a beautiful Starry Night for Vincent and you are a horrible goose
It’s the Fall of Rome and you are a horrible goose
It’s a beautiful day in Giza for the Egyptian Pyramid Workers and you are a horrible goose
It’s a beautiful last day of Earth in Tadfield and you are a horrible goose

one of the weirdest media experiences for me is when there's a clear Choice that's been made but i can't even start to explain why - i'm good at evaulating whether a Choice works or falls short of what it seems like it's trying to do in a work, but sometimes there's an element that someone put a lot of effort into and couldn't have done accidentally but it's just not even touching what seems like the thematic thrust of the rest of it --
most recent is the post-apocalyptic game where the evil upper class wears full 1780s French aristocrat clothes (sure, good, seems like a lot of work to produce, but it makes some thematic sense) but some fancy areas of the city are 1920s high society and others are, like, 1880s, and this is supposed to be doing something, i know it, but i'll be dammed if i know what.

Gonna put these together 🌝
Oliver takes the place of Meg Giry and Lawrence take’s Raoul’s role (No this ain’t gonna be a love triangle story I do not like those types of stories genuinely.) They’re very great friends along with Astra
THEN THE MANAGERS GOSH I LOVE THESE DESIGNS!!! They’re like the type to fight a lot though Rome has a more soft nature and doesn’t panic over small stuff unlike Mozamburke

Since our good friend Titus Flavius Vespasianus seems to have been the focus of the current @operabracket scuffle, I decided I'd do a study of one of his marble busts for funsies. Remember, a vote for Tito is a vote for world, or rather operablr, peace. And also for mercy and the good of Rome or whatever.

If I ever wistfully yearn for strictly black tie events and someone gets after me for being classist b/c people shouldn’t have to buy a gown to go to the opera I simply assume they have no vision. My wistful yearning includes a set of economic conditions which allows for everyone to participate!! Obviously!!!! Same thing with “you know, you can dress up no one’s stopping you” well what if I want to see other people’s beautiful gowns and suits?? What then?? Exactly.
