Surtitles

I just discovered that “Opera Australia is our national flagship performing arts company.”

I’ve found that Opera is only sustainable as background music. When I’ve been unlucky enough to have all the diversions removed, time has never moved more slowly.

Invented before electricity, I’m guessing it was exciting enough back in the day; beggars, choosers. But we have electricity now.

I do wonder why some people seem so dedicated to the task of keeping this living fossil alive.

Of course, it’s been sold to them as a club that they’d be lucky to join. And that’s all it takes; artificial scarcity, ambition, and the suspension of good sense.
