She [Soo] points out one in particular [fanart] that’s framed above her mirror. It’s Eliza with a word collage drawn around her. A young, Asian girl sent it to Soo because she was so happy to see someone like herself represented onstage.
“That’s just one example of how many young Asian women who have been like, ‘Thank you so much, you are representing me,’” Soo says. “Mixed women tell me they never felt like there was a place for them in the theater, and now there is. It’s just really important for them to be able to see it, and know that it’s not just a dream. You can pursue it.” - Phillipa Soo for Broadway Style Guide, June 2016
He’s consistently said again and again after the primaries that his #1 goal is to: STOP DONALD TRUMP FROM BECOMING PRESIDENT.
So, with that goal in mind, it would be an absolute fuckton of a disaster if Bernie were to run third-party or begged his supporters to vote for him write-in, you know why? Because it would split the Democratic vote up in half. And because of that this would give them way less votes in order to beat Trump, and because of that Trump would lead in national votes in most states, and thus lead in the electoral vote, making him president.
Don’t believe me? Look at the 1912, 1968 and 2000 elections and tell me I’m wrong.
Bernie knows this too, that’s why he’s urging his supporters to vote for Hillary. He wants the Democrats united so Trump will be defeated.
He’s not “selling out”, he’s doing this so no supporter of his will either vote Trump or abstain from voting, and to make sure America continues progress. Progress that, unfortunately will be thwarted or reversed with Trump as president.
The political revolution fails if Trump is elected.
I want to punch every person I see who says they just won’t vote because they don’t like Hillary. I’m not a huge fan either, but she’s NOT FUCKING TRUMP. Not voting is as good as voting for Trump. If people don’t grasp this, we will be handing the biggest idiot in the United States the reins of this country. And I will genuinely be ashamed to be an American.
The most dramatic moment during my Camp Counseling career at an all girls camp was when a girl got a letter from a friend saying that Zac Efron had died and one of her bunkmates ran out of the cabin and shouted “ZAC EFRON IS DEAD!!!!!” and the camp immediately fell into chaos girls were crying in the middle of camp and running around spreading the news everyone was yelling and the counselors had to look up wether or not Zac Efron was dead (this is a wireless camp so the girls couldn’t access the internet and check for themselves) and then get out a megaphone and be like “ZAC EFRON IS NOT DEAD PLEASE REMAIN CALM” outside of all the cabins it was insanity.
After Tony rehearsals and before the awards, we do a matinee performance. This is what it looks like backstage when we are exhausted. LOL. Amazingly, a beautiful performance caps off this very eventful eight-show week.
