I propose that the (talkie) sewing machine is an absolute gossip, and tells Kochanski everything that Kryten mumbled about her when he sewed things. Also, has regular banter with the Cat when he makes his suits and Lister when he sews his patches on. And maybe because the sewing machine is used all the time as opposed to talkie toaster, they aren't as butthurt about their job and Rimmer makes conversation occasionally.

sometimes i think about how wild a mw2 movie would be if they just dropped soapghost right in the middle with no warning or marketing. like imagine it being beat for beat the exact same, it’s your typical military action movie, promoted as just another military action movie then after they get to the safe house, ghost has to patch up soap and he’s still out of it, overwhelmed by the betrayal and everything he’s seen and ghost needs to ground him and keep him in the present, to remind him that he’s alive and safe so he kisses him and they have sex. the tantrums and the rants and the “ReAl sOLdiErS aRen’t liKe ThAt”, god i can taste it and it’s delicious

listen. I don't just love father brown because I first saw it while ill with the flu or because it's consistently kind to the outcast in a way that has reviewers calling it Too Woke, obviously a vote in its favour. or because the recurring thief character is very pretty to watch. though those are significant parts of it.
I love it because after eight seasons father brown sits down with the village drunk (a munitions expert in the war, has a soft spot for the parish secretary, name of harold or blind harry) to find out why he gave a murder suspect a false alibi and harry explains to him, calm as you like, that seeing the life leave someone's eyes changes a person, that it's what he reckons brought father brown to his faith, that it's what drove him to drink, and he didn't see that shadow in the guy the police are chasing this time. and father brown, rather than justifying or correcting or dodging or doubting him, says he knows how unjust the situation is. that he got something good out of the horrors of the war. that harry really didn't.
it is not a perfect show and yes I have problems with it but gosh, this is a character who's largely used for comedic beats, albeit kindly, and a scene like this isn't out of place at all but it still takes my breath away. we could've been left with this as subtext, y'know? I hadn't even put together that his alcoholism must have been trauma. but instead harry tells us this directly, tells us it's about guilt, that that's something he shares with father brown, who is competent and so often cheerful and I can't even imagine when he was younger, and it's a moment of such unexpected humanity and respect. and it's such a strange thing to see these characters side by side like that.
the scene ends with father brown calling harry a good man, and harry denying it ("they was only young lads" "so were we, harold. so were we.") and the two them sharing a drink as father brown gets a bit watery-eyed and I'm crying too over my nice cosy 'this is a concerning number of murders for a sleepy english village' show and just. hi. what. ow.
I also haven't recovered from the episode that turned into a heist halfway through but frankly I'm only mentioning that because I don't know how to wrap up a post like this. (it was good though. there were two separate honeypots, three if you count the impromptu replacement, one character terrible at grifting and one unexpectedly great at it, and, somehow, a con within a con. it was really very fun. get a show that can do both, I guess?)

coming up to two years and still the latam dub of 15x18 feels insane to me. trying to explain the scope of it to people on the outside was impossible and still is tbh. no other show

"Did you just she/her me?😕" Me asking if someone still perceives me as a woman because I'm offended they misgendered me.
easy to get over
—
"... you think I'm lying when I say your attractive..?😕" Me being offended that someone dosen't still perceive me as a woman because I have a crush on them and they imply that their straight and I have mixed feelings because yes you did gender me correctly and I love you for it but that means you're not attracted to me because I'm not straight or a woman.
i'm in shambles

Lol got an anon blatantly trying to trigger me but it was stuff from like years ago so my first thought was "damn right I'm still alive" and then "that's a weird ask. Oh that person is just trying to trigger me, ur information is outdated." Like... at least look at my most recent posts if you wanna find out what's gonna trigger me.
But also like. I cannot understate enough how much moving out of abusive environment improved my mental health. The hellish depression I had has basically evaporated to the point when it does swing around I don't recognize it bc it's so comparatively mild. My mood cycling is also much slower now and I actually have a stable mid point where I'm not depressed or hypomanic instead of going from one to the other and i don't require meds to manage it.
