It’s not our fault our parents didn’t teach us shit. I’ve had to look up how to do household stuff like unclogging drains on fucking YouTube. THANKS MOM AND DAD

There was a great twitter thread about it yesterday. Wish the search algorithm actually worked so I could find it.

Fleabag is hands down, 100%, unequivocally, the BEST show out there right now.

I just finished the first season. I kinda hated it through the first three eps and gotta say the last two won me over.

I'm not necessarily a big Ellen fan but her episode of My Next Guest Needs No Introduction is really good.

Finished "Good Omens".

Really enjoyed it. I know there has been a lot of complaints about the Sheen/Tennant dynamic, but I thought they were great throughout.

taking my post from the Terry Pratchett thread:

I wish I were a better writer so that I could say how much the last episode of Good Omens affected me. So much about what it was saying and not saying struck chords with me and how I view religion. Sure God has a plan but no one knows it, not even the angels, so why do so many people keep talking about it like they do? That was such a great scene, the way it played out. It's almost an affirming POV for me, which is weird to write and seems paradoxical on the surface.

I especially like the bit at the end where they talk about how the real Armageddon isn't going to be between heaven and hell but instead them vs. the humans. The idea that angels watched Satan fall and don't end up thinking "you know, he didn't have terrible ideas" after a millennia or two seems way more true than blind adoration for that same amount of time. And even if that were true, blind adoration has it's own downsides and may as well be the other side of the same coin. We are the betterment of the two factions, and they are both jealous of us.

I really need to get back into writing more so I can do this better. I have a lot of ideas but not a great way to put them into order. I'll just leave it as the show was the best kind of adaptation: one that loves the source material so much that it elevates it.

Also I see a lot of articles talking about where S2 could go. Why would you do that? A) why would you make a 2nd season? It's fine where it ended so let it end. B) I know why, it's for clicks. Ugh.

Finally, there was only one thing that bothered me about the show: War. It wasn't until today that I found out why the actress bothered me and it's because she was the lead in The Killing and I didn't like her there at all. Here she just seemed too American and just felt like she stood out in the crowd.

Legion season 3 is starting really soon. I'm pretty excited about that.

Spent part of a gorgeous Saturday watching a documentary on the Soviet Union between the revolution and the end of World War II. Fascinating and depressing, we here in the West generally have no idea how vicious the Soviet/German front was and how the peoples living between them got repeated raked over by both armies.
