Heard someone say that Ethel Cain, Hozier, and Florence and the Machine all make music for dead people it's just that they all died differently.

I love the continuing theme through much of Hozier's lyric writing that love between two completely ordinary, imperfect people is more intimate and profound than anything heaven promises.

The only Heaven I'll be sent to Is when I'm alone with you

_

If the Lord don't forgive me I'd still have my baby, and my babe would have me When I was kissin' on my baby And she put her love down, soft and sweet In the low lamplight, I was free Heaven and hell were words to me

_

There's no plan, there's no kingdom to come But I'll be your man if you got love to get done

_

Be as you've always been (Lover, be good to me) Be like the love that discovered the sin (Lover, be good to me) That freed the first man and will do so again And, lover, be good to me (Lover, be good to me) Be that hopeful feeling when Eden was lost (Lover, be good to me) It's been deaf to our laughter since the master was crossed (Lover, be good to me) Which side of the wall really suffers that cost? Oh, lover, be good to me

_

I would not change it each time Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I

i was thinking about the sleep deprivation thing that cults do and something i completely forgot about with regards to that conversation is that the sleep needs of children/teens are different to adults. it's a range as most things are, but when it comes to sleep you HAVE to go based off the biggest number to ensure everyone gets proper sleep because you cannot function properly without proper sleep

so, if you were a teenager who went to church camps and they allowed for less than 10 hours of sleep, or if you were a kid (6-12) and they allowed for less than 12 hours of sleep, you very well may have been sleep deprived, either intentionally or unintentionally

and as a little bonus: adults tend to respond to sleep deprivation with tiredness, but kids tend to respond with hyperactivity, and even one night of sleep deprivation can affect someone

Because I'm only seeing other Jews posting about this, non-Jews I need you to be aware that for the past month or two there has been a wave of bomb threats and swattings at synagogues all across the US. They usually do it when services are being livestreamed. I haven't seen a single non-Jew talking about this. High holidays are coming up in a few weeks, which is when most attacks happen against our communities. We're worried, and we need people to know what's happening to us.

I think it’s fascinating how the time and social context a piece of media is released in can drastically change what an audience takes from it.

When Hamilton was first released in the mid 2010s, I don’t remember seeing any sort of criticism of it. It was near universally beloved (to my recollection). But when the Hamilton movie was released on Disney+ during the BLM movement, then we started to have conversations about celebrating slave owners and if racially blind casting actually makes it “woke”.

Rian has said he intended Miles Bron to be a stand in for Mark Zuckerberg. But in 2022/3, as we watch supposed genius Elon Musk destroy Twitter and throw a temper tantrum, we see him instead.

No story’s message is universal, nor is it static. Every person, every time period, with their own values, life experiences, priorities, will read it in a different way. And as our societies change and evolve, so will our interpretations of older books, movies, musicals, tv shows, and more.

No listen, casting Lin Manuel Miranda as Hermes is actually a genius move because Hermes is one of those characters that at the beginning makes you think "I dunno, I think I like this guy" but some time later it has swifted to "I don't know why I still like him but by GOD do I want to punch him in the face". And honestly, the "I like you" to "Punching On Sight" pipeline is the peak Alexander Hamilton experience
