Okay as my all-time favourite Ted lasso artist and blog; what are your honest thoughts about the finale episode??

i've still only seen the episode once but just for you, sweet nonnie, i will rewatch it for more thoughts, but for now:

LOVED probably 80-90% of the episode and it was bittersweet and emotional af

every single one of the callbacks made me so happy especially the offside and nate's play

the so long, farewell scene?? are you kidding me???

trent. TRENT. my sweet gal. my little guy. i'm glad we got a final few ted/trent scenes in there and so grateful for the crumbs and mr lance's wardrobe.

i'd hoped for the whole season they weren't gonna do the love triangle thing with roy & jamie again, but unfortunately they did and even left it till the finale which was disappointing, but i did like how they resolved it, even if the throuple didn't happen (:/ or at least didn't happen onscreen)

i needed more nate this episode - i was hoping he wouldn't return just as a kitman and i wanted to see how that conversation went, but as always nick delivers on the stuff he DID get and i'm eternally grateful for his presence in the show

seeing the full diamond dogs just brings me so much fucking joy god i love six (6) men

barbara is such a little freak i love her and everything about her

one final triumph of tony head's rupert was incredibly satisfying to see i love old men. but WHERE IS BEX. i needed to see the rebecca/bex/ms kakes revenge storyline

re. the tedbecca of it all, i really thought they were gonna do it till the airport scene and am still surprised they didn't, which meant that the first fakeout scene was absolutely uncalled for and felt really in bad faith after the fact, even as a person who does not actively ship them

now for the stuff i REALLY. really. did not like, as evidenced by a number of dozens of tweets and two long stern worded replies in brendan's ama: absolutely unbelievable that beardjane were endgame when basically no other established ships/relationships ended up being endgame. very disappointed about the direction the show took them in and the writers' not realizing how harmful it can be to celebrate a toxic and abusive relationship. most important i think beard deserves better than jane but maybe that's just the beard fan in me talking.

i wish ted & beard would've had a deeper conversation re. jane & leaving london before they literally got on the flight, and gave us more resolution with these two men whom i dearly love and want to see more of - it does NOT help when brendan says they "don't see each other for years" because cmon. this is a feel good tv show. you don't have to bring your "real life friendship" stuff into here. make us feel good about ted leaving please.

and finally, ted leaving, which i definitely expected. i just didn't expect that the people trying to make him stay to not have any effect on him at all. i agree with others that ted seemed quite distanced and detached for the whole episode, but they'll most likely never end up addressing this ever again. i wish he'd explored more options than just "leave permanently and never come back" - and ended up being the same place he started before he came to london, but i appreciate the effort he is making for henry.

as for the future of the show, i hope there'll be a spin off with maybe some of the existing characters but definitely a whole new showrunning/writing/creating team, i would love to see other's interpretations for the characters & universe i've grown to love over the past year and a half.

so yeah, that's about all i can think of re. the finale. i was holding out for the last 15 mins of flashforward montage to be a dream sequence but brendan debunked that theory pretty definitively yesterday, so there's that. i appreciate the show for what it was to me and forgive it for what it wasn't, and i will still be enjoying the bits i enjoyed from it wholeheartedly - it was not a perfect show, but it was a great show to have enjoyed over the past year and a half and to have shared with the rest of y'all. i cannot wait to see what the universe, and everyone who was involved with the show will go on to do next and you'll be damned if i wasn't gonna follow jimmy lance's career until he is fully out of work. richmond till we die <3

Would it be possible for you to make a post about your meteorology experience? I’m 24 and want to go back to school to study meteorology but I feel like I’m too old now

Oh hell nah you aren’t too old!

I was 25 when I started going back to school for meteorology. At the time, I had just started my own business the year prior and had gone storm chasing in the summer with the community college I ended up at, College of DuPage.

If you’re serious about getting into meteorology, I’d start there because the program is ranked #1 in the nation for community colleges. The amount of courses offered is far beyond what you’d find anywhere else. I was literally taking what amounts to junior level classes as a freshman/sophomore.

In all honesty, though, for me it was all about how passionate my professor, Paul Sirvatka, was. (Google him. He’s fucking awesome.) He made you wanna go to class everyday. That’s how good he is. I’ve known him 11 years now, and literally call him Weather Dad.

So, here’s the thing about my journey through meteorology. I started in 2009 and didn’t graduate with my AS until 2016. At first, having my own business allowed me to take the morning classes important to the program. I was lucky in that aspect because I was able to take all my meteorology courses about 2 at a time until I had to make the decision to shut down my business and start looking for a job in order to continue making money. By that time, all I had left were the gen ed classes I could take at night.

I’m sure you’re wondering what classes I was taking. Here’s the list:

Intro to Meteorology

Climate & Global Change

Severe & Unusual Weather

Weather Analysis and Forecasting I & II

Advanced Weather Analysis and Forecasting III & IV

Weather Impacts & Preparedness (you can get a certificate in Weather Hazards & Preparedness in conjunction with the Criminal Justice and Geography programs with this class and all the others on this list)

Severe Weather Analysis

Mesoscale Meteorology

Intermediate Meteorology

Introduction to Thunderstorm Lab (aka Storm Chasing I)

Thunderstorm Lab (aka Advanced Storm Chasing II)

If you’d like the course descriptions, check out the NexLab website. It’ll be under Academics.

And yes, that’s a LOT of courses for a community college to offer, which tells you just how much passion the department has for its program.

The NexLab website in general is one of the top resources used in the weather/meteorology community. (And I’m just gonna brag a little that my background in graphic design has allowed me to help come up with color schemes for certain products and create the graphics for the now unfortunately defunct iOS app.)

It’s a solid program, one that’s going to teach you more than you’d expect and help you breeze through your junior and senior level classes at any university with a meteorology program. While that’s an experience I haven’t yet had, all my friends who have gone on to 4 year universities have all said the same thing: they knew more about meteorology than their peers because of this program.

So, what have I been doing with this? Storm chasing, mostly. I decided not to get my BS because I absolutely suuuuuuck at math. (I barely scraped by in Calc I with a passing D in order to get my AS.) But here’s the thing: I’m a damn good forecaster. I might suck at math, but give me a weather model, current data maps, colored pencils, and an hour, and I’ll give you a chase target for the day. With a string a great forecasts under my belt this season alone, that’s the one thing I’m confident about.

I hope that helps you make a more informed decision about pursuing meteorology later in life. If you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to message me. I am a massive weather nerd. (Ask @deckerstarareotp and she’ll tell you about the other day when I started dropping knowledge on humidity while we were talking.)

Okay you might know this one, it's the legend of how the Aztecs settled Tenochtitlan/Mexico City. They were nomads who left their homeland in search for a new one. The gods came to the priests in dreams and told them not to settle until they found where the serpent was fighting the eagle. They eventually happened upon this in the Valley of Mexico on a cactus and built their settlement there. That's also where the symbol on the Mexican flag comes from!

Nope, did not know that either!
