"mr zaslav, we need to talk about renewing the gay pirate show"

zaslav:

exactly omg I was going to put them side by side but I didn't have this image on hand!

I just don't think people get that blurry when they're bored, idk.

blue is a bear getting photobombed by a smiling ET in front of it.

(or a cow)

oh damn, that's 1) hardcore and 2) yeah prob a good reason to be cautious on the very cold days!

that's a thing that can happen? 😳

you just slowly, slowly learn all the ways that a bunch of people tried to kill it dead. 40% budget cut. shortened from 10 to 8 eps on short notice. forced rewrites the night before shooting. it's a miracle we even got s2.

the experience of loving this show and feeling like the last part was choppy but you could see what they were *trying* to do and the writing in s1, early s2 was so tight, so you are vaguely suspicious that Something happened to it... but maybe it's just cope?? and then!!

oooh, yeah I know the brand you are talking about. and while I recognize that they probably just have to follow the market to stay in business, and so do the bookstores they supply stuff to.... I am still going to be a bit of a hater about it.

fr this should be like. the most normal opinion to have. I'm fairly certain it's what the writers intended! and yet.

Broken To Begin With has huge "archaeologists finding human teeth marks on the bones of the franklin expedition members" vibes to me, and I love that sooooo much.

also the number one rule of making your own stock from veggie scraps is add salt. and then taste it. and then keep adding more salt because 3.5 quarts (!) of vegetable stock needs more salt than you think.

I need to do another listen-through of the album, I really love the overall sound of this one.

I still love it! and fortunately my wife has volunteered to cut up future squash for me lmao
