Huh. A venue in Britain with no roof. Do plays go on in the rain?
What'd you all order a dead guy for?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

There is no roof. They needed the natural light for the performances.

Of course. That makes sense.
I guess, if performances do go on in the rain, that just adds to the adventure.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
You guys need to post links like that to the tumblr.
I don't have a tumblr account.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
She IS so sensitive to her own fears and defenses that she cannot be sensitive to the emotional needs of others. Given her closer relationships with some truly difficult people, that makes sense.
I'll note here that it took me a long time to realize that we have different words for "sympathetic" and "empathetic" for a reason.
Somebody can be naturally sympathetic, expressing concern or compassion for your plight without being empathetic - being able to read, or know your emotions. This can lead to a lot of confusion and tension when somebody who has been sympathetic turns out to be not so empathetic.
I don't think it's necessarily something that can be learned. Some people are just better are reading those feelings.

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

You don't need one -- there's a link on the right side of the page that says "submit here".

Oh, yes, that's what I was assuming when I mentioned the "submit" link - Tumblr lets you set up a form to take submissions, which this one allows. If you decided to set up your own Tumblr blog, you could take submissions or not, but for the goodstuff blog, you don't need any kind of account at all. More clear now?

Very true. Very true.
