I'm Saying It,

so, let's talk about the chess game a little more thoroughly

in the chess game (from falsettos, idk if that's apparently clear, "a chess game" could literally be anything lol) there's a pattern of impatience that follows the two main characters.

Marvin's impatience is fully one-sided, you can see as Whizzer begins the game, he's insistent for him to get his turn over with, even going so far as to (quite condescendingly) ask if Whizzer wants his help. But then the moment it's his turn, he takes his time despite Whizzer having rushed his first move.

I think this might stem from his constant need to "help", or rather, control every situation. He thinks it's always his job to be the leader of every circumstance, as the stereotypical man.

It definitely comes from a childhood of commanding others around and not having a heavy amount of discipline for his actions.

Otherwise, Marvin taking time to calculate his move shows that he's careful with his own placement in life. A life of tiptoing around himself and never actually accepting the full extent of his personality, or sexuality has made him incredibly courteous of where he stands. Maybe it even came from his relationship with Trina, how not being careful led him to being forced into an arranged marriage.

Meanwhile, (and I know I've gone through this bit before in other posts but yes, thanks, I need more appreciation on William Finn not just victimizing Whizzer. Like, he's not that great either guys. We love him, but he isn't perfect.) Whizzer uses the game as a strategy to get Marvin on his side.

Although instead of healthily sorting through his MASS amount of issues, Whizzer pretty much just ends up manipulating him into throwing the game. It's interesting because Whizzer has an opportunity to discuss all of the problems they have with Marvin.

They're in a place in their relationship where he can clearly just throw anything out there, but then he strikes back with anger instead of trying to actually figure out the main issues and help them both through it, effectively shutting off Marvin's ability to actually listen to anything he has to say.

The chess game was actually staged so perfectly, because you can clearly see all of the toxicity in one contained place during that song. There's obviously snippets in others, Marvin's inability to change and Whizzer's insistence not to change because changing would mean they would have to actually talk about their feelings toward each other.

anyways, these are just my thoughts on this :) none of its fully canon, I was just watching through clips of the proshot and realized some interesting things

that's pretty much it

on another note your art style is scrumdiddlyumptious, made my whole morning actually

still figuring out how to draw these dummies

FUCKING PREACH IT, 

WE NEED MORE OF JARED ACTUALLY HAVING SOME DAMN EMOTIONS, THIS BITCH HAS PROBLEMS TOO AIGHT

I know that I'm supposed to look forward to or think about a lot of things concerning the DEH movie

but truthfully all I can think about is hoping that they'll make Jared an obviously also somewhat troubled teenager who's likely repressing that he's gay rather than just a one-dimensional asshole

hi yes petition for us all to draw shakepseare something rotten! in hamlet booty shorts?

shakespeare something rotten

assclass things :] (quotes, etc)

Mimura: Someone take me to an art museum and make out with me.

Sugaya: But they said not to touch the masterpieces.

Mimura: Well somebody's gotta pin the artwork to the wall.

Okajima, on a walkie talkie: This is Okajima, those idiots are fucking around in East wing again.

-

Terasaka: Some people are like slinkies.

Maehara: What? Explain.

Terasaka: Not really good for much, but it brings a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

Isogai: Please don't push Itona down the stairs-

Terasaka, pushing Itona down the stairs: Too late.

-

Okajima: I'm not THAT stupid!

Sugaya: You literally ate the wax off of a babybel?

Okajima: KARMA TOLD ME IT WAS EDIBLE!?

-

Nagisa, to Karma: Me? I'm the bees knees. But you? Your just...

Korosensei: Cockroach ankles!

Nagisa: Ye- wait, what?

-

Isogai: Karma's covered in blood again. Why is it that he's always covered in blood?

Maehara: This time I'm pretty sure it's his own blood.

-

Mimura: But you CAN'T eat fifteen crayons!

Okajima: Bet I can!

Sugaya: *Sips coffee, checks to make sure 911 is still on speed dial, and goes back to reading the paper*

-

Kirara: Nice rock.

Yoshida: Yeah, Terasaka gave it to me.

Terasaka: I THREW IT AT YOU!

Yoshida: Isn't he just the sweetest?

-

Karasuma: So, are you going to explain how you crashed my car?

Nagisa: Well, Karma was driving, and there was a deer, so I said "Karma, deer!"

Karasuma: And what did Karma say?

Karma: ...

Karma: "Yes, honey?"

-

Korosensei: I just had a long talk with Terasaka and Kirara about hitting, so now they are yelling "It's my turn to perpetuate the cycle of violence!" before hitting each other.

-

Kirara: Thanks for not telling Korosensei what happened.

Itona, dumbfounded: I wouldn't even remotely know where to begin telling this to anyone.

Gonna go rewatch assclass now lol:/

bye [:

nobody really talks about the song three seconds from in trousers but it’s my favorite song and I just wanted to commemorate it by throwing fanart at people

also, go listen to this production if you haven’t from 2019

YouTube

In Trousers (1985 version)

:)

If so, may I have a long fangirl-type chat with you about it?

I literally love music that's just one guy singing and it kind of sucks.

I tried making it simple

july 3rd on tumblr: happy peaceful blogging

july 4th on tumblr: 

I thought it prudent to say that I'm seeing Tammy Faye in it's preview stage in New York on Saturday (next Saturday) and I WILL learn what the beef is (if that hasn't been solved yet) 👁️👁️
