My brother works in bookings at Velez Stadium in Buenos Aires and he said it is only about 40% sold for Louis. Do you think he will cancel the show or change to another venue? I hope not 🙏

Any decision will be made by the promoter and not by Louis or his team anon. I do think understanding the structure of the music industry can help a lot with fan anxiety (although at a certain point the continued lack of knowledge suggests that fan anxiety is a feature not a bug).

In a non-indie tour, promoters take most of the risk of touring not an artist. The way it usually is the promoter guarantees a minimum payment per gig, and then there's a bonus if the gig sells out. There may be other bonuses and payment structure (everything is negotiated), but that idea of a guarantee and a sell-out bonus is a pretty common starting point (see this article). Often this bonus is substantial - and tours are based on achieving it (this is why undersells can make sense financially for artists). But in this case - I think it's highly unlikely that from Louis' point of view his South American tour was budgeted on selling-out stadiums, so not selling out won't affect the financial viability from his side.

The promoter appears to be working to sell more tickets (hence the promo hit). But there's no sign they're pulling out. Anything might happen, but to talk as if Louis will be the one to cancel a show for 40% ticket sales shows a willful lack of understanding of how the music functions.

[markantonys]

the most accurate description ever of being a show-only in the fandom for a book-based show

[wallbeatjournal]

Are true riverdale fans of the opinion it is a very good and nearly flawless show or does being a true riverdale fan mean being able to mock writing choices

it's long-running serial television plotted a season/half at a time so definitely not even "nearly" flawless.

BUT. i'm not doing combat with the writing team. i'm not actively reading against the text the way i have to in order to enjoy something like supernatural or the 90s robin comics or the fucking sopranos, which are patriarchal christiancore copworld rapeworld white supremacist horrorshows that hate their minority audiences, with like 2 good creatives involved and martyring themselves to fight the good fight on sparse rare installments if you try to approach them sincerely.

riverdale writing staff are like a favorite smart problematic tumblr mutual to me. I don't always like what's on their blog or who they're referencing. but we're in the same community and i'm interested and inspired and i trust their agenda overall, even when i see shit i wouldn't have fucking posted. but bc i'm not being condescended to or actively spited i'm not gonna condescend to or spite them, you know?

i expect rvd to age like twin peaks (another very uneven, highly referential serial juggling a couple of intensely cool metanarratives on top of its core story). and twin peaks fandom mocks twin peaks all the time. twin peaks includes some CLUNKY shit. it's kitsch. it's camp. it has a second season that is largely ASS. james is there. and on top of that it also includes some genuinely offputting-to-me stuff that just bothers me to sit through, even though i feel like i understand and respect what they're going for with it. i just don't want to watch someone sweep the fucking bar for minutes and minutes as entertainment. OK!!?

...so yeah. mock riverdale but in the right spirit. is that an answer? do i sound like i'm chugging the flavoraid koolaid fresh-aid? probably.

Wait ok monngos ask is also making me think in general abt kanako and chujins magic. I want to know what type of bullet patterns they have. Whether they have any cool abilities like cerobas hp depletion or starlos slow-motion. Whether they even HAD strong magical abilities at all. I must know.

So I'm writing my author's note...

...and I think I'm having just the right amount of fun with this, actually.

[hexie-mountain]

the constant reassurance and support nick got from charlie and everyone about coming out in his own time on his own terms is really heart warming to see considering how kit’s own coming out went

[swinging-stars-from-satellites]

I know nothing about this thing other than that it's probably off limits for me personally unless something I see in future gives me better/more perspective on it but like at the same time. despite that. I feel haunted by it already

[pretty-little-martyr]

not going to watch the show because zach hadel is a huge fuckn asshole but the red creature in that show is autistic

[mossy-paws]

Are ur comms open :3?

right now they are closed at the moment so I can work on some other more personal projects + finish up the ones I have now :3! But if you ever want to enquire about my commissions please never be afraid to dm or talk to me about them :DD!! Usually they are open but it does fluctuate a *LOT* so I’m probably gonna start doing announcement posts on here and Twitter every once in a while!

if you would like to read about them and such for future reference my commissions carrd is in my pinned post :DD!! Thank you for being interested!

Watched the first episode of Dungeon Meshi and idk what the fuck y’all are on about like this is Dungeon MID-shi if you ask me

[note-a-bear]

I'm still giddy about it, but play friend asked to join me and my mom for happy hour when my mom came down yesterday.

It went really well, lol everything was really easy and we talked for hours and everyone was laughing and idk man.

It felt really good, and I think play friend enjoyed herself. I don't have any days off except today, so it was a really nice treat for the holiday, and a nice way to see her off to a couple of days of family time.

i know it took ten like 3 seconds to regrow an arm after he lost it but that was Just an arm. if 13 goes splat, she should take at least a whole episode to look like she isn’t going to bleed to death any minute.
