We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

(I was supposed to be taking a nap before a women's sabre all-nighter. Not happening.)
(US women are 3 of the top 4 in the rankings; 2 of the 3 are old clubmates of some friends of mine. So what if it's the time of year when I don't sleep?)

I know! It pays off that it's a small damn sport -- it's not like we're anywhere near the same league as the top people, but they're all at 2 degrees through clubmates, or refereeing, or coaches we know in common, or whatev. You just don't *know* people in more popular sports in the same way.

Freaky blob birds.
The symbolism in the production is interesting. Idealized and problematic given the politics, but interesting.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I, uh, did math. And, proportional to population, the 15,000 performers would be 73 people in France.
