I keep changing my mind about I May Destroy You with every episode I watch. I'm on episode 7 and back in the "this is brilliant" camp but who knows what the future may hold!

Finished three episodes and I still don’t get Squid Game… I’m wondering if it’s some ridiculous metaphor for student debt

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.

Tonight’s Simpons wasn’t that bad. Or least it was better than last week’s Marge centered musical episode.

I don't think I've seen an episode of the Simpsons in at least 5 years.

Weird. I feel completely opposite. I actually stopped for a looong coffee and breakfast before work the other day just so I could finish ep 2 on my phone.

i feel like it'll pick up. the part i'm leaving out is i'm not starting these episodes until after i've sent the kids to bed, and i'm at the point of windy down.
i think the story is there, i'm just already angling to fall asleep by the time it starts.
