But what if Blood is not

Thick Enough to help us.

Water adapts, Heals.

A Spring, A Lake, A

F1NN5TER, Fetish, and Trans Femininity on the Internet

If you’ve spent some time on any of a few very different corners of the internet, you might have heard of former Minecraft YouTuber F1NN5TER, who recently came out as gender fluid (he/she pronouns). Those disparate online communities all reacted to that in the same slightly irritating way, boiling down to ‘I called it.’ The reason? Because up until that point, F1NN5TER had essentially been the face of femboys or crossdressing on the internet, a position attracting a huge amount of controversy and attention – controversy which has remained remarkably unchanged since her coming out. ID: Thumbnail of F1NN5TER's video 'Coming Out' F1NN5TER created his YouTube channel in 2015 and began to regularly upload Minecraft videos, reaching 10,000 subscribers in April 2017 and dropping out of A-Levels to dedicate herself to Twitch streaming and Youtube. In 2018, the unexpected success of a makeup challenge video led to him making content in the e-girl persona Rose, causing explosive ...

Review: Cinderella. 'This Lovely, Lovely Night'

But I mean how am I supposed to write a review of a musical? The genre is pretty much antithetical to theatre critics. Musicals are usually dedicated to providing a big fun entertaining show over creating a profound work of art (and I hate fun), by definition involve songs (scary! Not within my remit! I’m not a music critic!), and worst of all have huge casts and crews, so I can’t possibly mention everyone and will therefore, in this town, invariably offend someone.

So I could for instance say that I’ve been fond of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s short 1957 TV musical Cinderella for a while—it’s a remarkable show not only for its place in TV history, but also for its subtly brilliant reshaping of the Cinderella story into a celebration of imagination and dreaming and taking the initiative to change your life (wow! Sounds basic but it’s really good I promise)—but that this 2013 new book by Do...

Review: Bonnie and Clyde

PSA: The following statement is meant with love and affection. The St Andrews rendition of this musical belongs in a top 10 worst Southern accent impersonations list. Praise the Lord. ID: Bella Yow, Ben Stockil, Ian Crews, and May Tomlinson. Credit: Teigan Ferrie Bonnie & Clyde is a Christian country-coded reenactment of the toxic situationship you’re too horny to leave. Directed by Leia Ransley and produced by Turner Prewitt, this both is the Fresher’s musical for this year and the first musical to be performed in the StAge after the incident which deprived me of a decent night out for a year. There’s something amusing about how the pit orchestra got banished to 601 and had to appear like a dirty secret for the bows. At least they get let out, unlike in the Byre. This non-biographical retelling of the lives of America’s most beloved criminal couple (after Batman and Joker) slowly follows Bonnie (May Tomlinson) and Clyde (Ian Crews) from child to adulthood in West Dallas - a...
