Game On!
THE MAGIC FLUTE Birmingham Hippodrome, Wednesday 3rd May 2023 Welsh National Opera is back in town with a brand new production of one of Mozart’s greatest works. The text, translated into English by Daisy Evans (who also directs) gives the Emanuel Schikaneder libretto a complete overhaul, removing the more direct Masonic aspects and the more problematic elements of the story to give us a fresh…

Yeah ..Todd in the Shadows (a strictly music reviewer) making an hour long video exposing James Somerton (a former video essayist) for misinformation and plagiarism DEFINITELY wasn't on my bingo card for 2023.
#todd in the shadows#james somerton#hbomberguy#youtube#tell me why i was scrolling youtube at 3 in the morning and that was the first recommended video on my homepage#and after watching it then and finishing it this morning#wow#as someone who actually watched some of james' videos#im disappointed#and a little freaked out#especially when todd dispelled all the nazis claims james made#the thing that got me was when jamee claimed that legend of korra was taken off the air for korrasami#even though it was because of the ratings drop#no thanks to nickelodeon#which is easy and basic information to find on wikipedia#but im probably reaching as someone wno actually watched korra as it aired#im like bro you can't just make claims like that#especially when there's info that dispels that from the creators themselves#cite your sources people

ive never gone to see an opera live in europe let alone one outside of a major theater that regularly records and broadcasts their productions so grain of salt etc but i think there's some kind of distinct cultural difference between how european companies do "reimagined" productions of operas vs how american companies do it
#sasha speaks#especially thinking about the number of 'canonical' operas that are recently getting adaptations over here#frequently into english language musicals/operettas#not like rent and miss saigon though i mean more like matchbox magic flute#and la périchole getting adapted as songbird by glimmerglass and wno#or the local company that's putting on a 'circus' version of rigoletto with a new english libretto here in dec#(not sure what that will entail yet but i'm intrigued to find out)#hell even the upcoming pirates of penzance revival on bway which is also weirdly enough getting the jazz age new orleans makeover#ik pirates and bway is a different story from Opera(tm) Proper but still. tangential#anyway don't expect much more elaboration tonight i'm in bed rn as i type.#plus i'd want some actual researched data to back up my claim here if i were to really go on#and i have enough school related research to be prioritizing rn as it is#anyway#oh also smth about what content does and does not appeal to american vs european audiences#and by extension what you can and cannot get away with depicting onstage#(for a recent example consider sancta susanna vs grounded)#(okay anyway gn for real this time)

If I drew my fictional crush like Springtrap right now, I would have exploded long ago.
I should definitely reduce the drawing a bit. back to the old version!
i think you should draw your fictional crush exactly the way you drew springtrap :] i think you would really like it if you did that :]]]

finally the theatre play prompt.
ugh girl...i had WAY too much fun with this prompt...like my head went
Theatre -> Opera -> La Traviata
its so unhinged....
and of course i got ErrorInk in here too....Error is Alberto RIP lol.
these pictures are ass i hate my camera and also my dads monitor that i used to prop up the thingy!!!
i had like sooo much fun with the blood....i need to paint more blood...mphjhgjhh....
The inspiration for this pose/background/EVERYTHING actually comes from the La Traviata production at WNO!! i saw the dress rehearsal and ugh...it ended so beautifully and tragically...the acting and the singing ughh....so good. made the ending SO much more impactful....
oh. i also did this one in particular because i keep on getting struck with visions of courtesan Ink and client Error. please help i kind of love the idea.
anyway.
Prompt 5 Theatre Play!!!!
Ink by Comyet
Error by Loverofpiggies
...La Traviata by Verdi...ugh....

About me!
(click the read more for other dni stuffs)
ATTENTION DONATION ASKERS! I cannot give you money as I am a minor with a somewhat unstable job, nor do I have a large following to share your donation asks with. Asking me will Garner nothing, I apologize.
Dni:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bigots in general. Please. Also, Zionosts. Anyone pro israel in the war. Pro/comshippers (no, I don't care if you ship two characters with no chemistry or from separate media. I do care if they are related or it's pedophilic, or you defend it by saying "it's just fiction".). MDNI accounts. Terfs.
Please tell me if I accidentally followed an 18+ account, I didn't check!
16! My birthday is April 14th!
All our stuffs under the cut
My sona: any posts with tags: "Sona" "Levi" or "Leviathan"
Be not afraid!, because the stories I make are somewhat Gorey and have mature themes. I'll make a separate mature blog when I'm older, however. Also, I tend to draw (sfw) self indulgent art with fictional characters I like. If my parents find my account, respectfully step away. There's nothing bad, I'm just self conscious. (Not that you don't already tease me about "bone Daddy".)
About:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Names: Levi/Leviathan/Lucid
Pronouns: He/they/it. I also use neopronouns xey/xem, pup/pupself and void/voidself, but you don't have to use them. Any neo pronouns are cool with me, honestly. I also use we/our for myself occasionally. We are not a system, I just like the way it sounds.
Tags:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My non- reblog tags are in the post so you don't have to scroll to find my stuff
Rambles: #Eldritch thoughts 🩷
Askbox: #ask an eldritch
Art: #goopyart (and other art tags)
Wips: #Goopingwips
Also, please don't repost or use our art without our permission! Ask first, my Dms are open! (Reblogs don't count, obviously.)
Socials:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LeviTheEldritch
Blue sky: https://bsky.app/profile/levitheeldritch.bsky.social
(We also have Twitter and tiktok under the same names, but they are both mostly unused and are there for anti impersonation purposes, and to look at people I like who don't have Tumblrs)
(Also reddit. I mostly have it for nms lol)
Sideblogs:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EDENISBURNING-official blog (project): @edenisburning-official
Reblog account (EXTRA THOUGHT CONTENT‼️‼️❗❗❕❕‼️❗❕) @levireblogs
No man's sky account: Leviathan-among-the-stars
Extra about me!:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I like art, music, reading, mushrooms, writing (even though I can't finish a book for the life of me), creating stories of all sorts in my head, gaming, and other creative stuff that my adhd brain is ironically too uncreative to think of atm.
Favorite animals? Snakes and jellyfish.
Favorite colors? Pink and black.
Movies? Nightmare before christmas and 9.
Object of my romantic hyperfixation: Fell Sans and Standford pines (and gaster, but he's not exactly romantic. Or sexual. I just think he's neat)
Current self made series in my hyperfocus range: EdenIsBurning and Animalistic
We have depression, ADHD, and a pretty severe anxiety disorder. Luckily it makes me funny. Very slight dyslexia too, so I shut down when reading big blocks of text. I also have Associative Synesthesia (Sound to color, emotion to color, and pain to color)
Anyways, hope you enjoy the stuff we post! Stay sparkly, and stay safe.

If I had a nickel for every time I've seen a production of The Magic Flute that tried to make it less sexist but in doing so accidentally made it more sexist, I'd have two nickels, but it's kind of weird that it happened twice

Tocharian B Love Poem, manuscript B496, 6th-7th C. CE
"…a thousand years, [you will] tell [our] story. [I thus announce, [here]tofore there was no human being dearer to me than [you]; likewise hereafter there will be no one dearer to [you] than [me]. [Your] love, [your] affection, [my] jubilant song rises up! Along with life [itself], this should not come to an end for [my] whole life. I was thinking: “I will live with one love well [for the whole of my] life, without any deceit, without…” The God [of Karma] alone recognized this, my thought. Thus he provoked a quarrel; it ripped out my heart [that belonged] to [you. I]t led [you] afar, it tore me apart, it turned me into a partaker of all sorrows; he took away the consolation [I had] in thee… my life, spirit, and heart, day-by-day…"
"Tocharian B: …(ya)ltse pikala watäṃ ·e – ci(ṣṣ)e /// /// – – ·nts· p(o) ask(a)sk(au) (mā) ñ(i) (ci)sa noṣ śomo ñ(e)m(wno)lme (l)āre tāka mā ra postaṃ cisa lāre mäsketär-ñ : ciṣṣe laraumñe ciṣṣe ārtañye pelke kaltta-(r)r«†ä» śolämpa ṣṣe mā t(e) stālle śol wärñai : 2 taiysu pälskanoym sanai ṣaryompa śāyau karttse(ś) śaulu-wärñai snai tserekwa snai tā – : yāmor-ñīkte ṣe cau ñī palskañe śarsa tusa ysaly= ersate ciṣy= araś ñi sälkāte : wāya ci lauke tsyāra ñiśwetke «k»ly«†k»autka-ñ pāke po läklenta«nt»s ciṣe tsārwo sampā(te-ñ) – – – – – – ·e śol pals(k)= araś ñī kom-kom mī-"
