Im not caught up and I dont even know if this baby is real or a fan thing or something but as a recovering alcoholic honestly Id be interested to see exploration of this change in Hallariel's life.

I personally thought the way Brennan handled it was a little off, like in general his handling of drug use and addiction is a little off from my experience because he's someone who has been completely sober his whole life so ofc it is. It's not bad it's just not as good as if someone like me wrote it, and that's fine.

but like for example Hilariel's quitting drinking just like casually suddenly happened and she said she hadnt been sober Fabian's whole life. That's just not how it would go. and it's totally ok that it went like that in a fantasy comedy world where she's an NPC we dont see much. It's just that if I wrote it, Id know how to make it a more realistic depiction, and put in specific alcoholic inside jokes like her being a coffee addict now.

I dont have the experience of being the child of alcoholics and that's also like just a really specific experience I couldnt write as well as they could either, fwiw

as writers we do best depicting our own experiences but we do strive to include very different experiences and that's not always gonna be spot on and that's ok as long as we are sensitive and thoughtful. (Which like, I dont think is an issue here, to be clear.)

these two ideas can co exist and i stand by that

Is it reasonable or conspiratorial to suspect Starbucks is paying off cops to guard them during protests because, like, cops are going hard with their boner for Starbucks at every Chicago protest

Grant clearly enjoys a good ribbing. I think a core tenant of both Comedy as an art and also just making jokes with your friends is that it's very funny to rip on your friend who enjoys getting ripped on and is in on it. Not saying Zac doesn't, but Grant so obviously has a humiliation kink.

I know it was because Grant got sick, I assume that is true, but it was a good move to have Zac be the spaghetti guy instead of grant. They all love Zac at dropout, he's everybody's friend. Grant is everybody's friend, but they would rip him apart on camera if it meant keeping him from spilling spaghetti on their podiums.

fun fact: when i was a kid, i read this book called The Mysterious Benedict Society which involved the main character taking a test where the answers to the questions in the first part are hidden in the questions in the last part, and vice-verse

so with only the title of the episode to go on, when Deja Vu started with difficult trivia questions, i assumed the twist was going to be similar and later in the episode, they'd start getting questions like "What is the atomic number of Francium?" and "What is Ouagadougou the capital of?" and "What year did Alexander Solzhenitsyn win a Nobel Prize, and what category was it in?"

and then the video game and the ducks and the podium inspection happened and i had to completely re-evaluate

My gamechanger conspiracy theory is they could've stopped the time loop at any loop by protecting the camera operator from being hurt by sam, thus learning the lesson of on-set safety precaution, as foreshadowed by the podium inspector encouraging barrier protection

I can HEAR Sam giggling rn

i see a lot of people saying that next game changer episode should be deja vu again but with different contestants, and while i love that idea. consider

next season. or even a couple seasons from now.

same players. same premise. same questions (and perhaps a couple added for twists of course)

Game Changer DOES have the opportunity to do what MBMBAM did and make all the past episodes into an ARG as if it had been there the whole time

finally I have an explanation for why Im a good cook and a bad baker omg

the funniest dynamc between my boyfriend and i is the chef/baker divide runs so deep. experimentally my boyfriend is a genius with figuring out what flavor profiles will not just taste good together but also will be enjoyed by the specific audience he is cooking for. a recipe is not a guidebook so much as a suggestion and he will frankenstein ideas together to get exactly what he wants to happen. he also didnt know that sugar will not work properly if you dont mix it with the wet ingredients in banana bread and when i asked 'why didnt you do it in the order of the recipe' he said 'i didnt really think it mattered'. autistically i exploded his head in my mind

Once while I was at work a grown ass man told me "no matter how tough you act you'll never be a man, just like I'll never be a woman" and I know he MEANT like "I'm tougher than you because women are weak" but I heard it in Queer and went "Oh.... sweetheart" and he just completely recoiled it was insane

sounds like you see it exactly as it is.

When the rest of the world looks at the united states right now, we see a government who sends billions to support genocide but cannot help their own people starving on the streets.

We see a police force who won't go in to save children from school shootings, but deploy at a rapid rate to arrest peaceful protestors using their right to free speech to protest a genocide

America, you are a war mongering snake eating your own tail. You will protect and support war criminals in another country but let your own people starve and die

To the students bravely protesting now, we see your strength. We see what we saw when students protested the Vietnam War. We have faith you will prevail
