#since i made a post like this about npmd during the digital ticket

[nogooddeetz]

best underrated lines in cinderella’s castle:

•”i’ve seen a cock, no more trials today, gods, i beg of thee!”

•”start by smashing frog with big fucking rock”

•”mom, ella knows we don’t have any friends and she’s rubbing it in our faces!”

•”i look goood in this-“ “shut up you stupid bitch, the song is over!”

•”look as fuckable as you can muster”

•”clever whore!” [accusatory]

•”nope, nope, don’t talk to me, i’m in the audience now!”

•”but i know she was kindly and well-spoken.” “so what the fuck are you implying?”

I think people need to realize that just because Starkid is a small company providing accessible theatre doesn't mean they're immune to criticism. Previous anon is right that the SK Labs situation really hasn't been handled great & the history of backer incentives hasn't been either-- I never was able to get my SK Returns rewards because it took so long after you had to confirm your address I had moved during that time. I previously said some things on my personal blog (in the tags of a reblogged post at that! not like i was putting a rant in the Starkid tag!) that I was upset with the release structure of NPMD since they did both the digital tix during the run and the early release premiere, it felt to me like they were doing a double paywall & delaying the free release for no good reason. I got fans bombarding my ask box that I wasn't a real fan and that I didn't support them. As someone who donated to the backerkit, bought a digital ticket, & went to the Jangle Ball despite being a grad student living in literal poverty, this made me so mad. Especially if you are donating your money to projects, you have a right to criticize things that aren't being handled well. It doesn't mean you're not a fan.

(There's also another related rant I could make about the financial privilege I see from fans, particularly young fans who likely have parental support & don't pay bills yet, harassing ppl who don't donate but I'll keep that one to myself.)
