2somethingEl Gallo: Try to remember a kind of September When life was slow and oh so mellow Dan Goodman: Oh, that's a good idea. Hey Di, try to remember a kind of September when life was slow and oh so mellow. Natalie Goodman: Um dad, that didn't happen. Our lives have always been fast and super agitated. Dan: Well that's how I remember it so that's how it will be. It's an open book to wri-- Natalie: Mom, let's just skip to the reveal. The moon is cardboard.

2somethingI just realized, in the lyrics to "Wish I Were Hear," Diana sings<blockquote>In an instant lightning flashes and the burst might leave me blind As the bolt of lightning crashes and it burns right through my mind</blockquote>The lightning first "flashes," then "crashes:" I.e.

183231bcbJust saw a production of Fun Home and I absolutely bawled at Telephone Wire. I've never cried like that at a work of fiction, not even Next to Normal.

183231bcbI asked ChatGPT to explain the irony in the song "I'm Alive" from <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/NextToNormal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NextToNormal</a> . Even if you don't know the <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/musical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#musical</a>, the wiki article gives you enough context to understand the surface-level irony in the song (that the character singing it is dead.)
