jughead almost immediately removing himself from the musical aka the narrative the moment that someone else (kevin & clay) starts writing their own version of it and in turn, his removal from controlling the narrative ends up allowing the characters to take back control of their own narrative because when jughead writes and rewrites the story, it ends up trapping the characters deeper inside the narrative and the cycles they are desperate to escape until they are repeating the same behaviours over and over again but when kevin & clay write and rewrite the story, it ends up giving the characters back their agency because they're trying to help them which then allows them to break free from the narrative and walk away.
and if i went crazy and started translating and adapting the entirety of the beetlejuice musical to spanish, with changes to the jokes that would make sense within the pop culture…
LECTURE 4: INFLUENCES (PART 1): Typical of so-called “jug bands” in the American South was WHISTLER’S JUG BAND, one of countless such acts that flourished across the region. Most jug bands were very lively, and involved a mix of professional musical instruments (guitars, horns, drums) and amateur ersatz musical instruments. including corrugated washboard scraped with a metal thimble or a bass constructed with a broomstick and a single string attached to a washtub, wooden box, or tea chest. This genre of music flourished in the 1920s and early 1930s, but was largely eclipsed by the Blues as the 1930s drew to a close. The British skiffle craze of the 1950s was direct descendant of southern American jug bands.
it's so annoying that christmas has more associations that j a time to play annoying songs over and over.
Like all i want to do is make my boss listen to justin bieber sing the little drummer boy until they have no choice but to attack me like homer simpson but alas i am a great person and respectful of my other coworkers not wanting to hear carols

“Introduced Krissie To this recently. One of the VERY few "christmas" specials I ever watch. No christian preaching, no jesus, no crimmus music. Just an adorably wholesome story, some great music and that old Henson Muppet magic. “
I dont really share my interests that much. Not until last year, and mostly only online. And I've made a huge discovery! It is perhaps, maybe possibly a good idea to find people who like and do the things you like and do and to talk to them.
Because doing everything by yourself gives you some strange ideas about what's "normal" and what's "good" and what's "impressive." I never really thought I was impressively good at anything, I thought I was average, and that my skill reflected the amount of time I'd spent doing the thing. That it was a given. "Of course I'd be at this level. I took each measured step to get here, simple as that." And like, yeah, maybe it is as simple as that. But it still deserves praise. Someone can walk in and see me where I am and be impressed and I don't have to judge them for it. I used to always think "you're impressed with this? You could do it too if you wanted to"
Which book was it, it was probably a cnovel, I read a book earlier this year that was like "if the steps to becoming strong are so simple, why doesn't everyone do it?" "Can you be a virtuous person? All you have to do is refrain from alcohol and sex, fight for justice, take care of your parents, and uphold your honor. And yet there are only one or two truly virtuous people per generation." To do anything, there are simple steps that anyone can follow. But I think actually taking those steps is what sets the practitioner apart from "anyone." Only someone who has taken the first step can move onto the second, so "not just anyone" can take the second step, and the third, and the fourth. And then after a while you might realize that even though the path you took was simple, you for having taken that path have become someone special
