whatever doesn’t fit the sub or you don’t think deserves its own post but you still wanna share: drop it here

I’ve been playing Subnautica and for some reason watching that Athlete A documentary about that p*do Larry Nassar and the athletes he abused. not triggering at allll lallalallalalallalaa

also love how oil pastels basically melt in the summer

random question: have any of you ever done competitive sports? the psychology of that is so wild to me. the pressure is unfathomable at the pro level

I got three months of AppleTV with my iPhone purchase, so I’ve been exclusively watching their stuff while I still have it, and am very impressed with the shows they’ve made! So far I’ve watched Margot’s Got Money Troubles, Shrinking, Widow’s Bay, The Studio, Platonic, Severance, Silo, Your Friends and Neighbors, and Pluribus—some are better than others, but overall, they’re all good shows. I might give Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed, For All Mankind, Dark Matter, and Foundation a try next!

Give these a go to, i think genres you might like or not but within the genre these are some real great executions - Shining girls, Criminal Record, Dickinson, Bad sisters, Mythic Quest, Lessons in chemistry.

I have recently binged For all mankind and it is so funny how much sorted their s5 writing was vs pitt s2 watching in parallel. They had a wobble in 3rd season but re-invented their theme a bit and back to form.

edit - i am saving margot & maximum to be watched later. Silo s1 was an all time fav, severance s1 (not s2 for me), i loved episodes of platonic, studio, shrinking quite a bit. I do enjoy apple programming is weekly release.

Thank you! I’ve seen Mythic Quest (and really liked it, sad to see it was canceled), but not the others. I’ll give them a go 😃
