The Glow Cloud does not need to converse with us. It does not feel as we tiny humans feel. It has no need for thoughts or feelings of love. The Glow Cloud simply is. All hail the mighty Glow Cloud. A l l.  H a i l.

Day 22 - Scratchy

[ci-ah]

Children’s Fun Fact Science Corner

[ID: A WTNV comic featuring Cecil and Carlos. Cecil is a thin white man with an undercut, and Carlos is a thin brown man with curly hair. Cecil is sitting at his desk, he smiles and says into the microphone, “to be hosted by our town’s chief scientist himself today! Can you believe it!” He then nudges the mic to Carlos, who is sitting beside him. Carlos folds his hands in front of his face and inhales deeply. When he opens his eyes they are lens flaring. Cecil looks startled, and the mic gives feedback noises. The next panel is labeled as being two hours later, and Carlos is standing up and presenting a huge, messy board filled with papers and string that spread onto the wall and desk. He’s grinning and talking persistently into the mic and still got lens flares over his eyes. Cecil is leaning back with a blank expression and raised eyebrows. The view zooms on him as some of the falling papers hit him and he thinks, “We aren’t even on air anymore.” End ID] 

Listening to the podcast I wondered why they never gave Carlos the science segment of the show, then I thought maybe they tried at one point and something like this happened.

- space adventures!

- found family!

- finding out what happened here before AFTER you're already lightyears away from earth!

- characters that aren't explicitly aroace but can definitely be read that way! it's not even a stretch!

if you like eva stratt you should consider: SPOILER (morally grey women with the weight of the world on their shoulders who will do whatever they must to succeed)

if you like grace you should consider: doug eiffel (goofballs who have SPOILER in common)

if you like rocky you should consider: HERA (people who are not human but are unmistakably people, doing their best to fix things and keep everyone safe, responsible when they need to be but also down for a practical joke with their goofy best friends)

bonus: evil SPOILER! dramatic twists! classical music! BIG SPOILER! and so much more! listen to Wolf 359 today!

[rinasaurusrex]

hi friends, i just remembered that this exists so now all of you have to too.

[dysaniadisorder]

doug eiffel is the most undiagnosed disability guy of all time

[dysaniadisorder]

remember when he got stuck on a shuttle and started hallucinating his friends voices and didnt react to them like they were out of place at all. what the hell was that

[annabelle--cane]

in defense of doug eiffel, he was literally on the hephaestus on remand, he was doing penal labor, he did not want to be there and any vague illusion of him having a choice in the matter was cancelled out by cutter threatening his daughter to get him to comply. in offense of doug eiffel, hera was also there as forced labor and she only fucked around maybe 30% as much.

[ID: Two digital drawings of Cecil Palmer and Carlos from Welcome to Night Vale. In the drawing on the left Cecil is stood behind Carlos with his arms wrapped loosely around his torso. Carlos has his head turned to the side to look back at Cecil with a smile and is reaching up to hold Cecil's face with his left hand. In the drawing on the left Cecil has his forehead pressed lightly to Carlos' and a hand on Carlos' waist. Carlos is grinning and lightly holding onto Cecil's neck. End description.]

[weepylucifer]

okay this makes me feel like an ancient hag to say, but i was thinking some younger listeners to wolf 359 might not know of this: "the artist formerly known as warren kepler" isn't something he came up with, it's a reference to prince (the singer) who changed his name to an unpronounceable glyph for a bit, so no one knew what to call him and everyone started saying "the artist formerly known as prince".

now i personally didn't think there was anything further to this. oh kepler made a pop culture reference, fun. he likes funk, sure he likes prince! but then i looked up "the artist formerly known as prince" just out of idle curiosity and turns out what i didn't know is that prince didn't change his name out of eccentricity or as an artistic expression but because he was in a legal dispute with warner brothers who had trademarked "Prince™". which was the man's legal name and not a pseudonym. and so when he split from wb, they disallowed him to perform under his own legal name. it is a true story of a man being held captive by a corporation so thoroughly, his very identity no longer feels like, no longer is his own. so yeah, the artist formerly known as warren kepler. goddard really had that man in a gorilla grip
