I like the book’s adaptation of Dorothy way way more. In there she literally begged for Elphaba’s forgiveness for taking her sister’s shoes and even said that she didn’t want to kill her like the Wizard commanded her to.
It was this kindness that Elphaba hadn’t experienced in so long that psychologically damaged her, as well as causing her to sympathize with Dorothy as they are both misunderstood outsiders.
She tossed water on her to save Elphaba when she was engulfed in flame, unaware of the myth that water kills her.
I think just reducing her into a spoiled brat who has no problem straight up murdering Elphaba and feels good doing it is not only uninspired but unreasonably cruel.
DOZY DON CANNOT KEEP HIS EYES OPEN LONG ENOUGH TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE DEMOCRATS TO “STOP THE SHUTDOWN.” MANY ARE NOW SAYING HE CANNOT KEEP TRACK OF THE DAY OR TIME, KEEPS SAYING HE MADE “CALLS” “YESTERDAY” (HE DID NOT!) AND RELIES ON HIS AUTO-SHARPIE AND MILLER TO MAKE ALL DECISIONS. HE IS NOW WHISPERING TO HIS PEN (DEMENTIA???) ASKING FOR HELP, BUT HE KNOWS ONLY I, AMERICA’S FAVORITE GOVERNOR, GAVIN C. NEWSOM, CAN ANSWER THE CALL AND SAVE AMERICA. I KNOW THE “ART OF THE DEAL” AND CAN STEP IN TO SAVE THE COUNTRY ONCE AGAIN. I WILL BE ABLE TO TALK TO THE “OTHER SIDE” OF THE “AISLE” AND CREATE THE GREATEST DEAL OF ALL TIME. WE WILL ALL BE RICHER THAN ANYONE THOUGHT POSSIBLE AND AMERICA WILL BE “HOT” ONCE AGAIN. YOU ARE WELCOME, DON!! WE WILL SAVE HEALTH CARE FOR MILLIONS AND MAKE THE “EGGS” CHEAPER. MIKE “LITLLE MAN” JOHNSON MUST LEAVE HIS VERY VIOLENT DISTRICT AND COME BACK TO DC AS I HAVE JUST COMMANDED. EVERYONE WILL FLOOD THE STREETS TO CHEER “DADDY! DADDY! DADDY!” BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT WILL BE OPEN, GAVIN C. NEWSOM, YOUR DADDY, WILL FINALLY BE HOME, AND DC WILL BE BEAUTIFUL AGAIN BECAUSE OF IT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!! — GCN

Bill Burr says "idiot" Elon Musk is "evidently a Nazi" with "dyed hair plugs and a laminated face."
"I just refuse to believe it was an accidental two-time Sieg Heil. And he does it at a presidential inauguration! This is why I hate liberals. Liberals have no teeth whatsoever. They just go, ‘Oh my God, can you believe this? I’m getting out of the country!’ I’m just like, you’re gonna leave the country because of one guy with dyed hair plugs and a laminated face? Who makes a bad car and has an obsolete social media platform? Why doesn’t he leave? Why are we so afraid of this guy who can’t fight his way out of a wet paper bag?”

Not sure I've ever seen a more obvious picture to remind us that police exist to protect the property of the ruling class, not the rights of the people.
