Ok but how many people in the OZ actually caught on that the Tin Man is Boq? Does he even tell anyone outside his friends? And if he did did Ozians actually listen or are there a bunch of wild rumours circulating about him?

Imagine Munchkins having murder ballads and legends and all kinds of folklore about the Wicked Witch of the East and her lover/captive and meanwhile Boq is right there and everyone's "Oh yeah that's ol' Nick Chopper* his axe got cursed by the Wicked Witch because he wanted to marry her maid so sad". And Boq is like.Wtf none of that happened.Where did that story even come from.

Anyway, as a lover of folk songs I just wanted to say that Nessarose and Boq are such great murder ballad material.

400 years,a few Munchkin immigrations, and a lot of dropped/changed details later the story becomes something like this:

(just as an example)

Maybe with a little side of Allison Gross.

(* Nick being a misremembered version of "Biq" which in turn is a misremembered version of "Boq")

Once upon a time, the whole world pitied them, felt sorry for them, and condemned the brutality they experienced. Movies and songs were made. The genociders and Hitler were cursed.

But now, at this point, they have become even more despicable than the Hitler they once cursed. They turned into monsters cursed by everyone in the world with a conscience...

We had bonfires on the riverbank all the time back then.

At-Risk Peoples Resource List (Ohio)

With the current state of the US political climate and the detriment many groups are facing, it's immensely important to help our communities in any way we can. It can be overwhelming to find resources, so I've compiled a list of different ones - Most of them are for my home state but others are accessible nationwide. I'd love for other people to reblog this with options for other states so maybe we can create a massive master list spanning as many resources as possible.

I remember in one my film classes the professor was going on and on about her obsession with the Mamma Mia movies so I said ‘oh so you must really love Muriel’s Wedding then’ and she acted like I was making the film up
