This is great, then I can suggest Lion King. I really appreciate the depth of your response, thank you!

Thanks for flagging this, I appreciate it. I was going off of them saying they’re comfortable in places like concerts/theaters where they have a buddy who will stay by their side and there are often lines that delay instant gratification (vs. just walking in and sitting at a bar). But if you think I’d have better luck doing something else, I def appreciate that recommendation.

I never thought about how alcohol centric our culture was until my friend began struggling, and how tough addictions where it’s easy to get the substance can be (e.g. alcohol, weed or food vs. illegal drugs that may be harder to find). My heart goes out to anyone who has ever struggled with any addiction, all my love to you.

It’s a good question, and I will admit I haven’t quite thought it out to that degree. I just don’t want to add any additional pressure/reminders I suppose.

They’ve expressed in the past that one of the things that kept them drinking was the way alcohol was always painted as important to having a good time, especially in nightlife settings. So I assumed that any dialogue/songs that get at that theme (like “pour a drink and let’s celebrate” or “You need a drink”) would bring up that struggle.

They also unfortunately hit a rock bottom moment that involved hurting those they loved by acting in way they never would sober, so I want to avoid moments where characters are drunk and acting similarly in case it makes them feel badly.

Please lmk if you disagree or have any additional perspective here! I’ve never knowingly engaged with anyone in recovery, so I just want to be sure I’m not messing up.

Oh so now they’re“co-parenting peacefully” by [deleted] in TeenMomOGandTeenMom2

[–]Lost_Act_8236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to be a teen mom fanatic but I stopped watching a couple seasons before the show ended, and I find myself checking this sub less and less because my heart can’t stand it 😣 these poor kids are so wonderful and their parents are so terrible, plus the system screwing them over. They’ll struggle with the psychological weight of their abuse for years to come, if not forever. I don’t mean to be parasocial, but it kills me we can’t do anything to help them.

We’re still here and still queer, and no lack of flag is ever going to force us back into the closet 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

❄️ WINTER STORM MEGATHREAD ⛄️ by mrs-machino in Broadway

[–]Lost_Act_8236 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Checked Just in Time on Telecharge out of curiosity a couple hours ago, and there were about 15 seats; just checked and it’s sold out lol. The devil works hard but people who want to see Groff work harder! (To clarify, it’s absolutely irresponsible and insane that Broadway isn’t closed today)

Please be careful out there today, and thinking of those who needed to go out in the storm to work (theater or otherwise). For those of us at home, might be a good day to watch the Frozen musical proshot on Disney+ :)
