one of my favorite this american life segments of late is about the people who played orchestra pit for phantom of the opera on broadway and how, like, a sizeable majority of them had literally been playing the show since it opened in 1988 (on broadway. I know it opened in 86 on the west end, you random pedants, but I am specifically talking about broadway musicians) because their contracts stipulated that they'd have jobs throughout the show's entire run... but nobody anticipated that phantom would become the longest-running broadway show of all time.

and none of these people wanted to walk away from a guaranteed job, so very few of them ever quit. they just kept doing the same show eight nights a week... for twenty or thirty years... and by the time it finally closed last year most of these musicians (who had been working together for DECADES) hated each other and really really fucking loathed phantom. I can't stop thinking about it. it's indescribably hellish to imagine but also the funniest thing I've ever heard in my life.

I wonder what it is about cultsim/boh that inspires so many crossover posts and different fandom things with it, i saw a witcher crossover yesterday. It may be the fact that the lore has categories (the aspects) that people like playing and sorting things into, which i can't fault i also love sorting, sometimes its just hard to find posts about the lore itself which i feel is much more interesting.

my favorite subreddit is r/IsTodayFridayThe13th which makes a single post each day (Yes or No) answering the question. Every single Thursday the 12th everyone goes “This is ridiculous! I’ve been waiting too long for Friday the 13th. I’m not even going to bother checking this sub anymore; I’ve given up hope completely.” and it makes me laugh every single time

currently maybe possibly single-handedly crashing whatever servers eton hosts its archived student newspapers on because me and a friend are getting obsessed with a single outspoken prefect from 1883
