rogueslayer452++ I hope everyone who celebrates this time of year had a good holiday. Mine was pretty lowkey.
Although I do get that emotional hangover afterwards, and it's more than just needing to replenish my energy levels after spending some time with other people. I've noticed this after a few years now that there is that crash after the celebration, and it's that weird feeling similar to how in between Christmas and New Years it's like that liminal space, but like on an emotional scale. I don't know.
++ The Gävle Goat wasn't something I paid that close attention to before. I just knew that a straw goat was burned (or not burned) every year, and I knew that people were hoping that the goat would be burned this year since last year it wasn't. But now since birds are kind of taking over the goat, it's question whether the destruction of the goat will be by fire or by bird. I'm honestly hoping for the latter, since the constant updates on the slow decay of the goat is entertaining to me. It's the little things, y'know?
++ Unfortunately the BL Thai adaptation of Cherry Magic has been told to suspend international broadcast of the drama outside of Thailand until further notice. It appears to be copyright permission issues. Of course there are already workarounds, as there always is whenever things that this happen for one reason or another, but it still sucks.
++ On the brightside, Thailand is getting closer to legalizing same-sex marriage!
++ In other good news, Kesha has officially parted ways with her abuser's record label and company. She is finally free! I'm honestly relieved, but still very angry on her behalf that she had to continually endure all of this from the start. I know she had the support from her loyal fans and some fellow artists/celebrities, but I feel like this should have been a bigger deal when the news broke out about how she was being treated. With all that being said, at least she's been distancing herself from the asshole for a while despite still having to be attached to his label, with her comeback in years with her rendition of "Colors" and her Rainbow album, and her most recently released album this year, Gag Order. Now that she's free, I can't wait to see what comes next for her.
An obligatory rec in celebration: "Rich, White, Straight Men" by Kesha
