itwv: best show of 2024 so far yes/yes? I feel the show is so under promoted, what is amc doing?! if we don't get a 3rd season it will be such a shame.

def the best show of 2024! personally i'm not worried about renewal because a) the showrunner just signed a big contract with AMC, and b) IWTV is the flagship show of AMC's Anne Rice franchise, which is clearly a priority for their ~brand. however it's still frustrating to see IWTV fly under the radar - especially from my own selfish POV as a critic, because i'd get to write about it much more often if it was perceived as a "popular" show!

@elizabethminkel recently published a great article about this promotional issue in Wired btw.

Have you watched Tennant's Much Ado About Nothing with Catherine Tate yet? It's on YouTube. You won't regret it.

I have not, but it’s on my list! My excuse is that it’s not FOR DTennant; it’s because I’m a terrible early modernist who’s never seen or read Much Ado and I’m just making up for it. Right.

Every time I read about your study habits I despair, I’m firmly with the person who has never studied even for eight hours straight in their life.

I never studied eight hours straight! I’ve studied eight hours total across a day sometimes. I think this is a reasonable max to hit, within the range of normal for an adult! Eight hours is roughly the time you spend at a middle school during a schoolday or for a full time job, so you can imagine that broken up into pieces over an entire day you have free.

although sometimes I do wonder how much of my focus/motivation problems are ‘really’ disordered, and how much of them are actually quite normal and I just think of them as dysfunction because my teenage baseline was so high

Oh shit, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to come across as rude or insensitive.

lmao no, not at all! it’s something I judge myself for quite harshly but I have a sense of humour about it :)

Five years?! Are you just superbusy or …?

more like I’m just a dumbass with executive dysfunction, so instead of doing, like, anything, instead I do a lot of nothing because I’m paralyzed with indecision/ability to take very simple first steps, i.e. play the damn file, V. /o\

This outbreak of Good Omens content on your tumblr pleases me greatly.

I am taken aback by this actually good adaptation! It's calling everyone back in the yard, one big reunion from the 90s/00s!

Also, just to shoehorn in a fandom rec: have you read afrai's The Sacred and the Profane? It is my Favorite Good Omens Fic

Hey, nice to see old friends again…X-Men fandom seems like ages ago.

:DDDD hey hey hey hi hi hi!

That was actually not in the batch follow-a-bunch-of-people-who-followed-me-recently I just did – you liked something I reblogged a few days ago and I realized I hadn’t checked your blog recently and I went and did that to see how you were doing. I think you were in thorki fandom the last time we spoke, but our interests seem to have converged again! (relatedly also your hannibal book looks fucking beautiful)
