Hi, anyone mind if I vent?

So I don't know anyone on here which gives me a certain amount of freedom. So I thought I'd come here to vent. If you don't want to hear me then just scroll on, I don't mind, I just need to write this down somewhere.

I feel really wrong. I feel like there is an entire universe exploding inside me and it is all pent up inside my tiny, 5'6" body and it can't get out, so it just continues to explode, over and over and each time the explosions are getting bigger. But they are in this tiny space and the pressure is building and building. I feel so, so, so wrong.

I feel dark. I can relate to the characters of books like the secret history, dead poets society, gormanghast. These characters are twisted and dark and broken. I may not have committed murder and I may not be suicidal but I still feel a great affinity for these characters, their good and their bad. I wanna be reckless and iresponsible. I want to do something crazy, something that only a few months ago I would never have done. I don't know what. I don't intend on doing anything harmful. Just something crazy.

I feel so alone. So lost. So full of pent up something. I feel like there is a piece missing. I want to fall in love. I want to live. I want to learn incredible skills. I want to go places. But right now I feel like I'm going to go mad. A kind of hamlet madness.

Thank you for reading my vent. If you want to help then by all means send me some words of advise or reassurance. But please, I'm going through a hard time so if your just going to be an ass I don't want to hear it. I don't need anon hate. I have enough of that inside my own head.

Tumblr has finally realised there exists the figure of a “Live human”

I appealed images of three clothed women which the system identified as possibly a danger to the morality of anyone (not blind) under the age of 85..... Tumblr was kind enough to tell me that my appeal will be reviewed by a “live human”. However, meanwhile, they have been flagged and hidden.... imagine someone awaiting appeal on death row. 

Welcome to Gormanghast

[penelopecat]

This week’s new arrivals. Not so many books, but a lot of pages! I wanted to read the Gormanghast Trilogy after listening to a Doctor Who story in which he meets Mervyn Peake, and I wanted to read it without the pressure of a library due date. And I’m always excited to read a new Newbury & Hobbes book by @georgemannauthor. (No relation to Calvin & Hobbes.) This one is being promoted as the final book, but there’s already a novella scheduled to come out soon from another publisher. So I’m hoping that this marks the end of this six-book arc, but not the end of their adventures. (Or maybe it does. Even the best stories end eventually, and that’s ok too.) #thismakesmehappy #books #2022reading #toberead #tobereadpile #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CgFBIiJrFe4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sonia Friedman Productions present THE BIRTHDAY PARTY By Harold Pinter. Directed by Ian Rickson

Toby Jones, Stephen Mangan and Zoë Wanamaker to appear in major revival of Harold Pinter’s The Birthday Party

Ian Rickson will direct Pinter’s masterpiece celebrating 60 years since it was first performed

Tickets from £15 with over 20,000 seats £30 and under

The production will play at the Harold Pinter Theatre for a strictly limited run from 9th January to 14th April 2018.

Further casting will be announced soon

The Birthday Party Tickets on sale from Noon 12th September 2017

Sonia Friedman Productions is thrilled to announce a new production of Harold Pinter’s The Birthday Party which will run at the Harold Pinter Theatre, 60 years since the play’s debut, from 9th January to 14th April 2018 with an Opening Night on Thursday 18th January 2018. Tickets go on sale today at midday, with priority booking from 9am.

Stanley Webber (Toby Jones) is the only lodger at Meg (Zoë Wanamaker) and Petey Boles’ sleepy seaside boarding house. The unsettling arrival of enigmatic strangers Goldberg (Stephen Mangan) and McCann disrupts the humdrum lives of the inhabitants and their friend Lulu, and mundanity soon becomes menace when a seemingly innocent birthday party turns into a disturbing nightmare. Truth and alliances hastily shift in Pinter’s brilliantly mysterious dark-comic masterpiece about the absurd terrors of the everyday.

Following critically-acclaimed productions of Betrayal, and Old Times, Ian Rickson returns to direct a new production of Harold Pinter’s landmark play, The Birthday Party. Starring in this comedy of menace are trio of Olivier Award winners, Golden Globe Award-nominated Toby Jones (The Girl, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Infamous), Tony Award-nominated Stephen Mangan (The Norman Conquests, Jeeves and Wooster, Episodes) and Tony Award-nominated Zoë Wanamaker CBE (Electra, Passion Play, My Family). This will be the seventh Harold Pinter play that Sonia Friedman has produced, three of which have been directed by Ian Rickson, who also directed Pinter himself in his last performance as an actor in Krapp’s Last Tape. It is also the ninth production directed by Ian Rickson that Sonia Friedman has produced.

Ian Rickson said: “I knew Harold from when I ran the Royal Court and he was a great mentor to me. Doing The Birthday Party is particularly thrilling because as with the best first major plays – like first albums, and first novels – it has the intense DNA of the writer’s inner life; their yearnings, their obsessions, their longings. There’s something about The Birthday Party in particular that’s so raw and committed – it has this kind of anarchic, punk spirit and I’m just so excited about directing it.”

British Actor TOBY JONES is known for his roles both in the theatre and on screen. Earlier this year Toby finished filming both French comedy film Naked Normandy for Philippe le Gay, and next year’s Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. Toby has a further four films out later this year including – Universal Pictures’ crime drama The Snowman, psychological indie thriller, Kaleidoscope, Lionsgate’s World War One drama Journey’s End and Michael Haneke’s Palme d’Or nominated film, Happy End.

That year also saw Toby play the lead in Peter Strickland’s multi award-winning film Berberian Sound Studio. In 2014, Toby starred as the lead in the BBC Two BAFTA winning drama Marvellous, and the following year in Matteo Garrone’s fantasy horror, Tale Of Tales.

Further credits include: Atomic Blonde, Sherlock, Dad’s Army, The Secret Agent, The Witness For The Prosecution, Morgan, Wayward Pines, Capital, The Man Who Knew Infinity, The Hunger Games series, the Harry Potter series, Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Leave to Remain, Andrew Kotting’s By Ourselves, My Week With Marilyn, The Adventures Of Tintin, Frost/Nixon, W and The Painted Veil.

Theatre credits include: Circle Mirror Transformation, The Painter, Every Good Boy Deserves Favour, Parlour Song, Dumb Waiter and Other Pinter Pieces, Measure for Measure (with Complicite), The Play What I Wrote (winner: Olivier Award for Best Supporting Actor).

More Titus Groan

"I shall shing to you, Steerpike, to you… To you, the newcomer, the blue mummer and the slug of summer—to you the hideous, and insidious, and appallingly cretinous goat in a house of stenches… To you, only to you, my curdled core of cat-bile..."

(Swelter insulting Steerpike in Titus Groan)

As much as I hate Swelter, you've got to admit that the guy's got a talent.
