i. forgot to post about tma uh. its been a bit a lot has happened holy shit a lot has happened

spoilers to episode 69 (nice)

HOOOOOOOOO BOY.

live reaction after finishing s1

number one. the corkscrew lives in my brain rent free. and fucking. fuck. fuck. a CORKSCREW. i was again driving while listening to a lot of this and jon just fucking screaming startled me

"the skepticism feels safer" and "getting lost in the statements" is. uh. very interesting. and i dont,,,,, i dont really know what to do with that!

gertrude was. shot. thats. cool and awesome. my money's on elias.

martin called the statements a "web jon is stuck in" which is very fucking interesting phrasing given the lighter.

sasha is. fine. there is. nothing to be concerned about with sasha james. its fine. tables? what can a table do. nervous laughter.

MICHAEL. DON'T LEAVE ME HERE. MIHCAAEEELLL

jon saying "the archive appears remarkably like it was never attacked at all, unlike me" and "ive healed enough in the last month to go back to work, but I've been told the scars will never… truly fade" was. diabolical. also tim saying he's in physical therapy. i love love love that tma gives real weight to being injured. it takes time to heal. especially when someone drilled into your thigh with a corkscrew.

gertrude's recordings are interesting. she kinda seems a lot more on top of everything than jon is, and i dont know how much of that is experience or..... so me t h i ng else?

hill top road keeps. coming. up. as do leitner and the keays.

tim cant quit and jon cant fire him. which isnt at all concerning. everything's fine.

im very curious as to how jon wound up at the institute?? he says he "always believed" but im not sure if thats just after seeing artifact storage or what

anyways if you enjoyed this post please send me one william dolar at paypal.com/ifuckinghatejurgenleitner

was telling sister some eps from tma from memory and I did really like listening to it :) watching horror movies gives me too much psychic damage but horror podcasts are 1) easy to multitask to and therefore easier to enjoy while having less impact; 2) not something I have to experience in a dark theater all at once. after watching ‘us’ I’d have a spike of anxiety driving through the woods at night but if I heard someone telling a story about seeing something freaky in the woods I’d be like damn sounds freaky, good job writers. the 4th wall is so much stronger when I’m not seeing something live action

"stone-cold bitch" oh my god. the sasha and gertrude lore......

many tma thoughts in one post bc i was driving while listening so couldnt truly liveblog

spoilers up to episode 37

ok. again i was driving and binging for like ten hours so details may be muddy or blended together

got to the jane prentiss statement regarding a wasp nest in her attic. gross. she seemed to use language similar to other statements - she called her dreams "crawling and many-legged" which is the same as the guy with the spider following him.

jon seemed fucking terrified of her. if London's Most Autistic Academic has a "*shaky sigh.* sorry. that statement was... hard to record" moment you KNOW shits fucked.

Leitner and the Keys (new band name right there) keep showing up and they keep showng up together. im sure thats fine.

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh those were my main thoughts. Michael is. interesting. weird... hub thing under a nightclub is. also interesting

i know tma has something called "entities" tho i know nothing beyond that besides that onebof them is "spiral". im beginning to suspect "sky" and "dark" are others, based on the hub. and "web" maybe? jon got a zippo with a web. and each statement seems to correspond with an entity? or like theres objects that do maybe? the table certainly seems spirally, mary key had a spiral eye thing, theres the web lighter and spider dude, the leitner sky book and the dude who got swallowed by the sky.

uh yeah those are my thoughts 👍 i eep now

pls dont tell me about anything/clarify anything plsssssss

was catching up on the tma retrospectives & I do like that they talk about comedy being a failed state of horror & vice versa
