I once accidentally clicked a YouTube short where they made a PC build where the tower was an aquarium (the fish were fake and it wasn't water) and suddenly I was getting the most normie recommendations like car pool karaoke, call of duty highlights and those strange AI spiderman and Elsa on a roller-coaster. Like I'm sure they hit a market with the masses but they are not good for literally anybody at all lol

I'm glad you brought this up cause I'm genuinely confused on how shorts are supposed to work. I've heard all kinds of different things from different people. some people say that shorts are a great way to grow your overall Channel, but others have said that shorts are great for increasing only things like subscribers but have no effect on long-form content.

Apparently I've been overruled by other people here as we debate social media engagement on a 20+ year old forum board, but I would say it gets subscribers.

Or if you want the real way most people do it is get a TikTok and try to slowly entice people to go over to your YouTube without being shadowbanned by TikTok for doing so.

There was a show I discovered last year called In The Green, which features one character played by three different actresses with puppets of a Hand, Eye and Mouth, as a representation of a person so fractured by their past as they seek to become whole again

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3u-3gBpZD8k

It's very abstract and interesting. Definitely one of those shows that I wish had some sort of official recording, but you almost never get those for small shows like these, which is a shame. Reading the lyrics for the show it differentiates which aspects of the character is speaking or singing ("HILDEGARD (EYE)") at one time, as opposed to when all three actresses are singing at once (just "HILDEGARD").

Very creative use of puppets, I thought. I think it's easy to kind of dunk on puppetry but there are so many creative uses for it that it's sad to see it get disparaged as just something for kids, and therefore stupid. Even the deciding whether to have the puppeteers visible to the audience can mean SO MANY THINGS depending on the context. With the most recent Milky White example, having the puppeteer visible to the audience the whole time, only to leave the stage when Milky White "dies" is so simple but so loving cool. Art is cool

Imagine getting plagiarised by a french producer and then offered more then 50 times more than what you think your original work was even worth.

Theater is very cool. Cherish it when you can get it imo. It's sad that small indie black box stuff will never get the attention that the huge stuff does, because only the huge stuff will ever have enough eyes to support an online discussion.

I'll probably continue to wear a mask at the theater for a really long time, to be honest.

Something about COVID shutdown helped me to rediscover my love for musicals. One of my favorite things is finding a composer and picking out all the common chord progressions that show up throughout their work. It's like, little pieces of music that they couldn't get out of their head and seeing it pop up in new contexts

You keep posting in this thread and the other people responding to him, which doesn't matter at all.Unless they're like his friends or people he follows back, posting twitter responses is literally just you being manipulated by twitter in exactly the way twitter is designed to manipulate you. If you actually believe there is anything to this guy, actually post something suspicious. Don't post a horde of the stupidest people online responding to him.
