Accidentally ended up answering a call from my uni and ended up doing a survey including this genuine question:

"On a scale of 1 to 10, how satisfied are you with your life?"

...that's a very complex question for 6:45pm on a Friday

Next season of The Traitors:

"Well speaking as someone who was actually convicted of murder, I am telling you I'm not a traitor because if I did murder Derrick, I would've ACTUALLY murdered him, wouldn't l?"

"Yes, that's true. I'm voting Louise because she ate crisps in a suspicious way yesterday"

Been listening to this a lot lately while working/doing stuff. Makes me feel like I'm in a David Lynch film

While everyone's talking plotholes, I want to talk about the wider industry trend of which I think the last season of Stranger Things is emblematic.

Just got out of seeing the Melania movie. It's just her sitting against a white background reading the unredacted Epstein files for 4 hours. Pretty clever way to fulfill the legal obligation to release them by putting them in a place no one's going to see them.

I just tried watching that AI American revolution thing that Darren Aronofsky set fire to his reputation to make...it is genuinely the most disgusting looking thing I've ever seen

Just walked through St pancras station past an advert for the Melania movie. Then just outside there was a crazy man with a microphone shouting about how he is Jesus Christ returned.
I almost couldn't tell which was which.

Soo...this is weird. The thumbnail from my brasseye video ended up in this guardian article about 100 years of television. Not a link, just a picture of the thumbnail.... guessing they pulled it off image search without checking

In spite of its drawbacks, I think there are some encouraging things in that new Doctor Who spinoff with the long name.

Catching up on Severance - finding season 2 a lot warmer, funnier and more human than season 1. Particularly captivated by Dylan and Irving's stories.

Finished Stranger things season 5 now...that ending was fine. Writing was no better/worse than the rest of the season or seasons 3 and 4. Dunno what everyone's complaining about.

I find Garth Marenghi's Darkplace to be one of the most unsettling experiences in the field of television....okay, hear me out on this one.

There's an advert on itv about a little girl who can't tell the difference between real life and the AI assistant in her parents' car. It's the most depressing advert ever that thinks it's adorable.

Stranger things season 5 - lesson learned so far is if you've previously made it look like you've killed off a main character then undone it, they're basically invincible from that point cause I don't buy that they're ever in any real danger

Stranger things season 5 is interesting but the dialogue is really bugging me. Instead of having our characters describe what just happened for the sake of people looking at their phone, I'd like phones to give electric shocks when they sense your attention wandering from something you're doing

Today this song is factually accurate. Therefore you must listen to it.

Trying Pluribus. Really liking it but just have to ask - anyone else reminded of the Jasmine arc from Angel?

The war between the land and the sea episode 5: the sea devils eat all of earth's dogs and mankind threatens to nuke the sea

....I almost find it impressive they got Disney to pay for this

Feeling really emotional now I've finally posted Bright Lights. It was the last thing I was working on when Cleo died last year. RIP

While Pete and Becky are walking around looking at Christmas lights, they find what they've lost.

Finally started stranger things season 5 and have instantly latched onto Holly's story. I think I'm less interested in the regulars because they're used to odd things happening and Holly isn't so it's like I'm seeing it through fresh eyes again.
