My friends always recommend it but i find myself really struggling to watch shows without like good vibes and just general positivity haha

Like the Good Place was my JAM

west flax
#

God mood that alone made me not wanna watch it LMAO

dawn orchid
#

oh damn Good Place was so good

elfin epoch
#

THE GOOD PLACE WAS SO GOOD

dawn orchid
#

that show was perfect from A to Z

elfin epoch
west flax
#

The quickest way to turn me off something is annoying persistent ads

open egret
#

RIGHT ITS EVERYTHING

dawn orchid
#

they escalated the stakes SO well

west flax
#

AHHHH TGP IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SHOWS EVER

dawn orchid
#

whilst also managing to keep everything human and relatable

elfin epoch
#

My friends tell me I’d probably enjoy the boys but I got so mad at the ads

west flax
#

The way I sobbed at the finale of a comedy show.... Unparalleled

dawn orchid
#

OH MY GOD THAT ENDING THO

elfin epoch
#

god I wept

open egret
#

I legitimately loved the entire show its such a good time

elfin epoch
#

I was a mess

west flax
#

Like God that destroyed me

open egret
#

Omg i was literally bawling for an hour

dawn orchid
#

but I also loved it so much ToT

open egret
#

That ending stuck with me for WEEKS

west flax
#

One of the only shows that managed to stick the landing and actually knew where it wanted to go

dawn orchid
#

that is the very best version of death could look like tbh

elfin epoch
#

I still cry thinking about it

west flax
#

God it shook me to my core in the best way possible

elfin epoch
#

🌊

dawn orchid
#

god Jason 😭

open egret
#

It only doing 4 seasons was so perfect. They went on just the right amount of time

west flax
#

I still think Eleanor and tahani should've kissed at least once 😔

open egret
west flax
#

Jason my GOD

dawn orchid
#

I looooooove that he started as a complete caricature and slowly grew into a surprisingly sound and thoughtful character by the end

elfin epoch
dawn orchid
#

....Well you know as thoughtful as Jason can get.

west flax
open egret
#

That episode starts goofy and you realize what's happening and its like a knife in your chest

dawn orchid
#

Eleanor and Tahani as brotp and you know it

young vapor
elfin epoch
west flax
#

Ye they were for sure A Thing once

dawn orchid
#

or twice 😏

elfin epoch
#

They super were

young vapor
west flax
#

I mean Eleanor did not hide she liked tahani ahfksl

young vapor
#

Yeeeeeeah

elfin epoch
dawn orchid
#

but also Eleanor and Chidi though

stoic ivy
#

I have no idea what y'all are talking about but I can feel the passion from my phone

dawn orchid
#

The Good Place

west flax
#

Oh yeah the m/f couples on this show are superb and I'm not complaining at all

elfin epoch

It’s SUCH A GOOD SHOW

dawn orchid

elfin epoch
#

That good?

dawn orchid
#

Frenchie is

pulsar plume
#

He. Is. The. Best.

west flax
#

Very spoilery meta about the finale ||someone pointed out that Jason literally ended up living the life of a monk at the very end. Silent, just waiting in peace until Janet returned||

pulsar plume
#

I love him. He's my favorite character.

dawn orchid
#

the frenchiest french to ever french in the most realistic portrayal of frenchood

west flax
#

I haaaave to rewatch tgp soon

open egret
elfin epoch
#

Oh my god I might have to watch it

elfin epoch
pulsar plume
#

And also the most empathetic, kindest, most compassionate but fucked up person...

dawn orchid
elfin epoch
dawn orchid

a Marseille kaira

#

who struggles with english

west flax
dawn orchid
#

and I love him

west flax
#

Like rarely have i ever seen seen a show that develops its characters this well

young vapor
dawn orchid
#

HE IS THOUGH

open egret
#

I really have to say it genuinely may be one of the best television shows ever made

west flax
dawn orchid
#

LIKE LEGIT

pulsar plume
#

Elsa you will love him

dawn orchid
#

it's genuinely excellent

#

also yes Frenchie is epic

#

look at him and tell me he's the the most Marseille kaira to ever kaira

stoic ivy
#

He's got the charisma that goes with it I see

pulsar plume
#

He's so handsome.

#

And I love his accent

dawn orchid
#

his accent is a disgrace

pulsar plume
#

It's beautiful!

dawn orchid
#

but also 110% accurate xD

elfin epoch
#

Oh no I’m gonna have to watch 😂

dawn orchid
#

it's a sleight on my honour.

stoic ivy
#

Vix, don't forget, people love our accent...for a reason I can't fathom

dawn orchid
#

either

pulsar plume
#

I mean. Please, PLEASE be advised that it's like... NC-17

dawn orchid
#

it's NC-25 xD

stoic ivy
#

But if he's got that Marseillan accent tho? Golden.

dawn orchid
#

that shit's r e a l

pulsar plume
#

For real. But it's SO GOOD.

elfin epoch
#

lmao I will watch it sometime I don’t have anyone else looking at my screen

#

Also I should get back to my book I have 900 pages left to read 😭

#

dawn orchid

elfin epoch
#

Heaven Official’s Blessing

dawn orchid
#

o:

#

haven't heard of it

elfin epoch
#

Believe it or not, I’m halfway through

dawn orchid
#

but I'm already getting good omen vibes

stoic ivy
#

Not you reminding me I have three piles of books waiting for me to read them until I procrastinate it again

stoic ivy
#

THIS. BOOK.

dawn orchid
#

IS SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

#

I LIVE FOR MY INEFFABLE HUSBANDS

stoic ivy
#

IT'S TORN BECAUSE I'VE READ IT A BAZILLION TIMES

elfin epoch
#

Well the protagonist is a god who has ascended to heaven three times, and one of the other main characters is a ghost king so good omens vibes isn’t entirely off

dawn orchid
#

TERRY PRATCHETT AND NEIL GAIMAN ARE TO BE PRAISED HOURLY

elfin epoch
#

It’s just infinitely more heart shattering

dawn orchid
#

excuse you have you seen the state that car ended up in ?

#

if that's not heart shattering idk what is

stoic ivy
west flax
#

I tried reading the book but my brain sucks ass

#

I adore the show so so so much though

dawn orchid
#

oh my god

elfin epoch
dawn orchid
#

Auntie

#

Auntie

#

Auntie

elfin epoch
#

tgcf is SO MUCH worse

dawn orchid
#

Auntie I'm auntnapping you and we're watching it.

west flax
#

I think I watched go about uhhhhhhhh 5 times in 3 weeks

stoic ivy
#

Watching what wait what happened wha-

west flax
#

Probably more tbh

dawn orchid
#

yup sounds about right xD

#

ssshh don't question it

dawn orchid
#

it'll be fine

#

we'll have wine and crepes

stoic ivy
#

Deal.

dawn orchid
#

my granny's special recipe with a splash of rhum in the batter

west flax
#

God cons after that show were amazing, everyone was dressed as The Husbands

dawn orchid
#

hahaahahaha

stoic ivy
west flax
#

I saw a couple with big ass wings

#

So good

dawn orchid
#

obviously, she raised me

west flax
#

I wanna go back

dawn orchid
#

heck I'll dress as Crawley any day

west flax
#

My friend and I did fem aziraphale and crowley 😔 best times

dawn orchid
#

I'm much better suited for Aziraphale but fuck it I wanna be cranky demon xD

stoic ivy
#

I loved the show so much, I friggin' got the dvd to binge watch it anywhere I can tbf

west flax
#

I would dress as crowley irl, style icon

dawn orchid
#

better yet cranky governess

stoic ivy
#

I mean Tennant and Sheen

west flax
#

Ahfksg yeah I wouldn't suit crowley at all with my 1,60

dawn orchid
#

either but that's what platforms are for 😄

#

cuz like admit it

west flax
#

True true but I had to let my lanky 1,80 best friend take the snake ajfkd

dawn orchid
#

Crowley in stilletos

stoic ivy
#

I have sunglasses similar to him and I embrace the chaotic look

west flax
#

Yeeeeeees

dawn orchid
dawn orchid
#

this is the representation I live for, they're obviously married, but it's also never actually mentioned or noticed or anything ???

#

like it's just perfectly normal

#

only remark you get is someone telling Aziraphale that Crowley's not worth when he storms off for his tantrum on Alpha Centaurus

#

just yes please more, more of this, all the time

stoic ivy
#

What I liked was Sheen's explanation for it, like his own point of view being that, since we're talking about non human beings, their relationship can't be define by our standards. So it's very special and very unique and very much theirs

#

It's beyond married at this point

dawn orchid
#

it's so perfect ToT

#

Crowley casually waiting 9000 years for his bae to get his head out of his arse

west flax
#

Honestly I greatly prefer explicit representation bc that way homophobes can't spin it into "they're just friends" but with these 2 it's so clear as day and they're literally immortals beyond human comprehension they're not gonna get married ahfkslg

#

Like........ This is deeper than simple love baybee

stoic ivy
#

they're definitely NOT just friends

dawn orchid
#

I agree for the most part Biv, but also this is just so obvious

west flax
#

I've seen people try to claim they are LMAO

#

Just besties doing besties things

dawn orchid
#

HE SAVED HIS BOOKS IN THE CHURCH

#

THE LOOK

#

THE LOOK ON AZ'S FACE

stoic ivy
#

It's even FUSIONAL at this point

dawn orchid
#

JUST GALS BEING PALS

dawn orchid
#

I need a shirt that says that

#

I gently and socially pin him to a wall

stoic ivy
#

The tension was real and nobody can't tell me otherwise

dawn orchid
#

they LITERALLY embodied each other COME OONN PEOPLE

stoic ivy
#

I loved the take on ''angels can do bad things and demons can do good thing''

#

yes give me more of that please

dawn orchid
#

well like they say at the end "I wouldn't love you as much if deep down you weren't just a little bit of a good person"

#

and "I wouldn't like you so much if you weren't just a little bit of a bastard"

#

(paraphrasing but you know what I mean)

stoic ivy
#

Bickering old married couple

dawn orchid
#

I fucking live for old married couples

#

another one of my absolute favourite old married couple has got to be Fitzsimmons.

Agent of shield? I think? My memory b a d

dawn orchid
#

yess

stoic ivy
#

I hear fireworks nearby and like...the hell are we celebrating? What day it is

dawn orchid
#

it's saturday night

#

why wouldn't we celebrate

stoic ivy
#

Because dancing is not a crime unless you do it without me

dawn orchid
dawn orchid

dull wyvern
#

Well well well... if it isn't the French

dawn orchid
#

well if it isn't the strudel

pulsar plume
#

now I just want actual apple strudel, so thanks for that

dawn orchid
#

you're welcome~

fossil breach
#

Nooooo it looks good. I'm trying to go to bed not think about food! 😂

dawn orchid
dawn orchid
#

just dream about food

fossil breach
#

If I could go to sleep and then dream of the food that would probably be okay although I could then wake up at 4am hungry due to the dreams so idk 😂😂

tribal kettle
#

Lol the talk about strudel and my mum made some for dessert last night :))

stoic ivy
#

Will y'all stop talking about food 😭

stoic ivy
#

If I can't eat everything I'll drink at least

dawn orchid
stoic ivy
#

Glue on pizza sounds like a mean prank

#

Now you want a real prank on pizza while still staying on the edible chart? : Tabasco.

#

Lots of Tabasco.

dawn orchid
#

...So what I usually do anyway ?

#

tobasco's adorable xD

stoic ivy
#

are you human

#

how

#

Even I like spice but I have my limit

dawn orchid
#

I have two brothers

stoic ivy
#

Aaaaah....that explains the chaotic side

dawn orchid
#

either I adapted or I died.

dawn orchid
#

if you really want to kill someone crush dried piri piri peppers and sprinkle it on top of the pizza

#

or better yet hide a whole pepper underneath the topping somewhere

#

I am totally not talking from experience because again I have two older brothers

stoic ivy
#

I feel like my pranks are nowhere near as majestic as yours

dawn orchid
#

in my family Auntie, you either have to think fast

#

or you die.

stoic ivy
#

Remind me to never meet your family

#

I want to live thanks 👀

dawn orchid
#

nah you'll be fine

#

they're lovely with outsiders

stoic ivy
#

LISTEN I CAN'T OPEN JARS. I TRIP ON STAIRS. I'm an easy target

dawn orchid
#

well you're not wrong...

#

:)

stoic ivy
#

The only experience I have is pranking older cousins because I'm very much on my own at home

#

Actually if I had a brother or sister it would have been worse.... probably

dawn orchid
#

oh speaking of stupid ideas, Auntie, you're a norman right, you know that if you want to live you don't cross the marshlands and pastures at night with two bikes and no light right ?

stoic ivy
#

I don't even leave the house during the day

dawn orchid
#

fair

stoic ivy
#

What's that ,an urban legend?

#

Because we have a ghost story nearby

dawn orchid
#

well my brother and my cousin had the amazing idea of cutting across the pastures as a "shortcut" to get home

#

after we'd gone to the cinema

stoic ivy
#

They stumbled upon a boar'

dawn orchid
#

at around 11pm

stoic ivy
#

?

dawn orchid
#

nope

#

herd of horses

stoic ivy
#

Aaaah....

#

Yeah...yeah

dawn orchid
#

they came home 2 hours after me

#

who'd used the normal path

#

with a bit of the bike saddled inexplicably bitten off

#

I'm not even joking

#

a chunk of the bike saddle was nibbled off.

stoic ivy
#

I mean...they aren't wild per se but they have their personality...

dawn orchid
#

well there were like 6 of them and only two idiot bipedes

pine cape
#

Family is evry time good taking that persons that want your death or are very strange and boring

stoic ivy
#

They learned the hard way

dawn orchid
#

I'm happy to say I'm fairly certain no one wants my death in the family xD

#

although

#

gets pretty insane on mum's side....

stoic ivy
#

I'm an only child, if they want me dead they have every opportunity to make it happen and I'm still alive sooo

dawn orchid
#

every time parents let their kids run off to pet strange dogs and horses, I tell them there are easier, cleaner and less public ways of getting rid of their offspring

#

usually does the trick

dawn orchid
#

you're laughing but I had a kid run up to the mare I was leasing and legitimately lauch herself at the mare's leg

stoic ivy
#

What happened to ''don't talk to strangers'' I wonder

#

She did WHAT

dawn orchid
#

I just about passed out from fright, mare's cool as a cucumber, thank the fucking christ for that

#

oh yeah

#

I unglued the urchin from the mare and looked for the mum, who was casually strolling over to us laughing

stoic ivy
#

Never hug a mare unless she goes for it first is what a farmer once told me

#

Ooooh crazy parents stories I got some from my time at the park

dawn orchid
#

and I'm like "you do realise had my mare been ANY less cool you kid would be dead right ? Like actually dead. Like we'd be calling the morgue right now, not an ambulance, the morgue"

#

dyou know what she replied to me ? Still chuckling mind you

dawn orchid
#

"Oh bUt She'S sucH A PrEtTy HorSE !"

stoic ivy
#

...

#

Pretty = calm now?

dawn orchid
#

OH WELL MY BAD I GUESS, THAT TOTALLY MEANS SHE'S NOT 600 KILOS OF PREY ANIMAL WHO CAN SPOOK AT ITS OWN SHADOW

#

I was livid.

stoic ivy
#

I had two horses eject me from their saddle because they wanted to eat and not follow the group

#

Horses have their own mind

dawn orchid
#

cuz if my mare had been any less of an absolute GEM of an mvp

#

guess what I'd be in prison for manslaughter

#

cuz parents thought the horse was pretty

stoic ivy
#

Someone teach that kid survival instincts

#

For real

dawn orchid
#

the kid was 3

#

the kid did nothing wrong

stoic ivy
#

Ah that young?

dawn orchid
#

the kid was left unsupervised near a road with horses, cars and bikes

#

saw the barbie pony

#

and wanted to say hi

stoic ivy
#

Well they were 4 to 5 years old at the park with me and it wasn't their fault either but....damn...you see the tents on a viking park?

dawn orchid
#

I think so ?

#

and then she died.

stoic ivy
#

It was this one. You see the wooden branch holding it together? Difficult to set up on mornings, requires at least two person without that the tent goes CLAP

#

I'm teaching the kids runes, I look up. No shit I see two kids, 5 y old tops, tugging it

#

I scream at the parents nearby, the teachers accompanying as well

#

THEY LOOK AT THE KIDS AND GO BACK TO CHATTING

#

Had to scream at the blacksmith to check on it because he was right next to them but in their blind spot

#

Two seconds later the tent went clap

#

And the kids were laughing. Buddy if the wooden post that maintained the up part of the tent fell on your head? Hospital.

#

After that we had to make a disclaimer at the entrance ''we ain't responsible for your irresponsibility. Please keep your children from endangering themselves"

#

And I stopped counting the parents giving their toddlers knifes to carved branches when it wasn't even something we demonstrated in situ

supple tangle
#

I feel like these things happen when the parents have never had animals before. As someone who has a dog, every child should be taught you do not touch and animal, wild or otherwise, unless you have asked permission from the owner first.

dawn orchid
#

I live !

supple tangle
#

and this is very time you want to touch them, it doesnt matter if you have pet toby the dog or bethany the horse or matilda the cat every day for 600 days, on the 601 day, they may not be in the happy of lucky mood they were in previously

#

you have no idea whether Toby was attached last night by another dog, or bethany was spooked earlier that day and is skittish, or matilda ate something and is sensitive that day

#

you have to ask, these are animals, they see the world and perceive us differently

dawn orchid
#

I think the most important thing is to make the difference between Toby who is your pet dog, and some random dog on the streets

#

you do not approach random dogs on the streets, period.

#

or horses

stoic ivy
#

or boars

supple tangle
dawn orchid
#

especially not boars jesus xD

supple tangle
#

you just dont know.

#

lol who is approaching a boar?!?

stoic ivy
#

I have stories about those boars

dawn orchid
#

idiots

#

also you should never let young children interact with animals unsupervised

#

even if it's your dog you've have for 15 years

stoic ivy
#

Tourists from the capital who are taking a stroll in the forest for kicks mostly

dawn orchid
#

do not leave your toddler alone with your animals

#

snorts in parisians

supple tangle
dawn orchid
#

Auntie I live like, 20 minutes away from Paris right ? Like in the suburbs

stoic ivy
#

Yeah so you know better

dawn orchid
#

and I kid you not I've had parisians ask me if I get woken up by a rooster in the morning 🤣

stoic ivy
#

The problems we had here was with intra muros people

#

Not all of them fortunately

pulsar plume
#

@stoic ivy

dawn orchid
#

NO BECAUSE I LIVE IN A TOWN NOT BUTT FUCK NOWHERE ON A FARM

dawn orchid
#

also please for the love of everything holy on this earth do not feed animals who are out on pasture

stoic ivy
#

Best part of my life was being in high school in butt fuck nowhere, and seeing a Parisian friend of mine discover the beauty and smell of fields with manure for the first time

#

Priceless

dawn orchid
#

you may think oh just one carrot won't hurt that horse but you're the 20th person to think that today

#

excessive sugary food like carrots, or apples will give horses cavities

#

bread can choke a horse

#

also some horses have allergies and diabetes

stoic ivy
#

What treat do you usually give them btw? Never had to feed a horse before

dawn orchid
#

Ideally I avoid treats

#

though if I have to, alfalfa cubes

#

(luzerne)

#

if you absolutely must feed the horses in pasture, go pick some grass that's away from the road, and give them that

stoic ivy
#

alfalfa now say that 20 times in a row fast

dawn orchid
#

no

dawn orchid
#

yes 🙂

#

if you give a horse carrots, cut them on a bias too, cuz they can choke on it as well

#

also horses can't throw up

#

so like

#

please don't feed them.

#

just don't.

#

unless the owner is there and tells you it's ok

stoic ivy
#

Well they can't throw up but they sure as hell can throw me of their backs if needed

dawn orchid
#

xD

#

but also I wish we could have signs that say "if your kid does stupid things around horses it's your damn fault"

#

but unfortunately according to the law a horse is a vehicle and you need to be in control of your vehicle at all times

stoic ivy
#

That's basically what we said minus the horse part. Well we had donkeys...but they were out of their reach

dawn orchid
#

so if a feral child comes barging out of the woodwork and spooks your horse, it's your fault -_-

dawn orchid
#

I could go on for days with all the stupid shit I've had to deal with from non horse people over the years 🤣

#

and even horse people who REALLY ought to know better

#

but somehow don't

#

like standing with your kid right behind an injured horse who's in pain and chatting there

stoic ivy
#

Same with the tents, the pond, the knives, the friggin' swords on display

pulsar plume
#

that horse gonna kick you

dawn orchid
#

I kicked them before the horse did

stoic ivy
#

That horse will y e e t you

dawn orchid
#

literally horse had just injured himself on a fence, was in pain and stressed

#

and the teacher is stand right behind it WITH HIS KID IN A STROLLER

#

and chatting ABOUT THE INJURY

#

to a bunch of other parents

dawn orchid
#

so I was like "WOULD YOU MAYBE MIND NOT STANDING DIRECTLY BEHIND A SCARED INJURED PREY ANIMAL WHO'S TIED UP"

stoic ivy
#

That u

dawn orchid
#

oh my god

#

I need that on a shirt

#

I need it so much

#

I'm gonna embroider that on a shirt.

stoic ivy
#

Why...do I find critical role gifs in the embroidery section....why

#

How

#

That's not even related

dawn orchid
#

🤣

#

CR is everything my child

stoic ivy
#

CR is everywhere

stoic ivy
#

If that ain't me two hours ago...

dawn orchid
#

Auntie let's not kid ourselves here

#

this is you always

stoic ivy
#

That gif scares me so much...

dawn orchid
#

this is so cursed

dull wyvern

stoic ivy
#

Shlee the cocoa dealer

dawn orchid
#

#

You mean those delicious crepes with rum in it?

#

Noooo

#

Why would they

stoic ivy

Actual representation of Vixen making crepe batter

#

you're joking but

#

pretty much

#

just a splash of rum

stoic ivy

A splash meaning throwing the bottle back until its content splashes you and everything around it

man, I the crepes at GamesCom were some of my favourite memories from those conventions 😛

stoic ivy

Good food? At conventions? Where have you been and how can I go there

dull wyvern
#

have you never heard of GamesCom? o_o

stoic ivy
#

Maybe?

dull wyvern
#

it's the largest video game convention in Europe and I think it even beat out E3 in one of the last years

#

all the major publishers are there to show off their new and upcoming titles

stoic ivy

We have three here that's the only ones I know so far

Because I live in a cave

I mean yeah, the Irish won't win anything but they're there for the piss up, not the game itself 😛

Auntie was very much remembering the south west celebration the local rugby team throw up every year with lots of sangria at stake

The world cup not so much

There is a squirrel in my boyfriend’s house

That's how I imagine the squirrel 😂

He actually sent me a picture lmao

so, the sore arm (of course). after about 8-10 hours or so, i had really REALLY bad chills. i slept with so many blankets and couldn’t get warm. then in the middle of the night, anytime i would move when i was sleeping, my whole body would ache. like, it felt stiff and painful like when you sleep on something wrong and move it. i felt that all over. but when i woke up for work the next day, the only thing i really had was a pretty bad headache. like it was at my temples and i felt it splitting up my skull

but that could’ve been because i teach high schoolers and they were giving me a headache haha. but literally by the time i woke up for work, all was well!

ah yeah, that's what i meant.

nah Walt was always a devout capitalist

Nah Disney was also a huge propagandist

Walt was a big racist

come to thik of it, i've never seen the disney live remake lol

he appreciated fine art and demanded quality from his movies

And they were not great

the model Disney has rn is very much a product of Walt

Wasn't Disney also a massive antisemite? I could be wrong on this but for some reason I think so

but he wasn't a paragon of virtue I'll tell you that xD

I meant moreso that Walt wasnt focused on making bad movies for the sake of money
He at least had a cause behind it as terrible a cause as it was

Disney isn’t a villain, but he was a product of his time and he didn’t work to better himself personally or his racism.

Yeah not all of them are terrible

dawn orchid
#

I'm not saying they're bad

icy notch
#

Aladdin, Jungle Book

stoic ivy
#

They also make remakes to keep the park relatable for the next gen in order to not change it too much , cost less money for them

west flax
#

It still breaks my mind that they have a streaming service (with no free trial even) and you have to pay 30 bucks on top of that for certain movies and people aren't angrier about it

#

But I hated beauty and the beast and what they did with the queer character especially, and I didn’t like Mulan either for the above reasons

Which queer character
