I was thinking about this at work. I see it as referring to his final night, at the start of Afterlife when Gozer really does come. I see it as almost hopeful, with a very bitter dramatic irony of us. If it can fight and win, then they'll have no choice but to believe him.

"If I make it through tonight everybody's going to hear me out."

But he doesn’t, and they don't.

Touch Tone Telephone is so "Afterlife Egon Spengler trying to get the other Ghostbusters to believe him before he died" and I'm sad about it.

My manager: *trying to have an actually serious conversation about policy*

My stupid brain: Everybody do the wenis. The wenis is a dance.

"And you're our player Sam Reich. You've been here the whole time" 👀

I’d watch that

So at this point Siobhan has only appeared in Game Changer twice and the episodes have consisted of:

1.) Being locked in a room.

2.) Getting trapped in a time loop.

If I was her I'd start interpreting invites as a threat.

"Better to be laughed at than wrong"

"I'm an expert just like you. And like you I'm a genius, before my time. Disbelieving that's the real crime."

Yeah, ouch!

I'm surprised none of the players tried to pull the camera guy back after a couple of loops. Well, I'm not really surprised because obviously they were aware that it was a game mechanic, but if it was a genuine time loop situation I would definitely be like "oh no you don't buddy."

That wasn't Sam Reich, that was Sam Dalton. He brought Brian David Gilbert with him from the past. No not an ancestor of Brian David Gilbert, just the guy.

Well that songs going to be stuck in my head forever.

one moment that really stood out to me in monkey man was when dev patel’s character was training and he took off his shirt and the hijras watching him started hooting and hollering and it was very…it meant very much to me that this film showed them openly showing attraction and desire, without their attraction and desire being portrayed as creepy or predatory or completely written off as a joke. it was just fun and joyful.

Don't put the dove in your mouth if you don't like the taste of dove. Do not complain to the chef when the menu item labelled 'dove' has dove in it

Alright, to ao3's soon to be arriving Wattpad Refugees, a basic guide to general user culture:

1.) Unlike Wattpads vote system that let's you like each chapter, the ao3 equivalent kudos only allows one per work. Everyone is generally quietly annoyed about this. To engage with each chapter, you're heavily encouraged to comment. Trust me, it makes people's day.

2.) Ao3 has no algorithm. By default it's latest updated work first. You can find things to your taste through searches, filters and tags.

3.) 'No archive warnings apply' and 'user has chosen not to use archive warnings' mean two very different things. No archives warnings means the work is free from any content that could require a warning tag (character death, graphic depictions of violence, non-con, etc). User has chosen not to use archive warnings means it could contain any of the warning content, be it hasn't been explicitly tagged. Treat it like an allergen. No archive warnings apply is allergen free. User has chosen not to use archive warnings, may contain traces or whole chunks of the allergen. If you're likely to have a bad reaction, maybe don't take the risk.

4.) Speaking of warnings, ao3 has very few restrictions on the type of work that's allowed. Whatever your personal thoughts or feelings on that are, thats how the site is. You're likely to run across some dark subject matters and a lot of people are uncomfortable with reading that. You're well within your rights not like these works and have your opinion on whether they should be allowed, but harassing the authors of such works (or any works) is more likely to come back on you than them. Ao3 operates on a strong policy of 'don't like, don't read'. Use the tagging system to your full advantage to only engage with the kind of works you want to see.

We look forward to welcoming you all and seeing the fantastic works you create. Happy writing!

I think the new spam measures have helped because I've not had another bot through since this one (though I've probably jinxed it now)
