watched three eps in a row yesterday morning, which left me kinda depressed. at its core, this show is a celebration of different walks of life, and those lives intertwining in interesting and meaningful ways, and that's just tough to think about right now since we're all supposed to keep away from each other.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

The one with the kid and the sneaker and then the guy goes to this huge house with some weird lady and friends and hangs out while the dog shits all over the place.

I loved the puppeteer segment. What was your take on the ending? Fantasy, or is he a dead man?
Im thinking its the other guy who is shown in the montage. His assistant.
