In case you haven't, though, it's now easier than ever: @shipwreckedcomedy just released the Complete Cut on YouTube! The full series, as a single video, that you can watch like a movie!
This show has an amazing balance of spookiness, silliness, and mystery, with an amazing cast, great writing, and an absolutely fantastic soundtrack!

There's twists and turns, babes and bards, an honest-to-goodness HEIST, and so much more! Check it out!

Frank what would happen if you went into the bramble bushes?
"It's time we make some changes."
"There's only one thing I'd rather do, Frank."
"That's easy, I already know. Come on."
"Not that easy. Just listen."
The wind in the forest had been rising steadily. Frank remembered the story he'd heard about the kind of forests in the mountains, and the way it had seemed impossibly beautiful when he first heard it.
"I want to go out into the brambles," he'd said, when he'd seen the forest again a few years ago. It was late at night, and he'd never been there before.
"No," his wife had said. "You will get lost, and then we will not be able to go home and your wife will die."
"But she will die anyway," he'd said. And he had set out into the woods. The brambles were beautiful, all the same. He did not think he could have ever seen such a thing as a green hillside before; it was impossible to tell if the green on the forest floor was a moss or an emerald, or just some shade of green that is not produced by any plant on earth. The brambles covered the ground so densely that he could see only the trees ahead of him and those in the distance. The leaves were so small, too, and the whole area seemed so much larger and more mysterious than the surrounding woods.
"Hello, Frank. Is this it?"
Frank stepped out, and into the brambles. It was easy to get lost here, and he had already been here. Once.
"I feel like you're speaking to me again," Frank said.
It was a long time before he came out, again. He looked back at the spot he'd come from and wondered if he'd even be able to find the same place again. Maybe they would grow and cover it again, and it would no longer be his. But he knew it would still be the same forest, the same woods, if it was not in his memory, as if he had never been there before. He walked for hours, through the trees, and the shadows, and the thickets, and the moss, and the brambles.
"Frank! Come back here!"
He did, at last, stumble back into the clearing.
"So you see," the brambles said, "I'm the best thing that could happen to you, all of this."

There's some dude (derogatory) on FB who is PISSED people are pricing their farm fresh eggs at $2 and $3 a dozen instead of $4+, saying it's "disrespectful" and "undignified" and "I'm trying to feed my kids" like Sir, you are on a Facebook group page bitching about your neighbors egg prices because your pet chickens aren't earning you a living wage and you think it's your neighbors' fault, you do not have a leg to stand on here wrt dignity.
Also half the answers are like "I give them to friends and family free" or "I donate them to food banks" or "I'm making them affordable to folks who might not otherwise be able to get them now that they're so expensive in the store" and "if you think you're going to turn a profit keeping backyard chickens you have been wildly misled" and so on, and so forth, and I'm so living for it.
and I can tell you right now, he did NOT like my answer of "if you're trying to feed your kids, I hear eggs are edible."

PSA: i keep seeing posts about staying cool in extreme heat that include advice like "gatorade is bad actually!" and "don't drink fruit juice it'll just dehydrate you!" and neither of these are true!
regarding fruit juice: there's apparently a misconception that Any Sugar At All will dehydrate you, and that's simply not true. yes, sugar will make you pee more when consumed in large amounts, but 1) the natural sugar in fruits won't do this to you 2) great news! a lot of fruit juices exist without any added sugar in them! 3) honestly even having a glass of the fruit juice with added sugar won't completely dehydrate you as long as you're also drinking water throughout the day. if its hot you deserve a cold treat of a drink!!! can't go wrong with fruit juice!!!
regarding gatorade: maybe this isn't an every day drink, but guess what: if it's 110F/40C or hotter outside, and you don't have AC, or you're moving around a lot outside of the AC, and you're sweating buckets: that's when you drink a gatorade.
gatorade exists to replenish all the electrolytes (salt) and glucose (sugar) that you sweat out. YES it is meant for athletes to drink during intensive work outs and not necessarily for people who aren't doing that kind of exercise. BUT GUESS WHAT! when you're sweating buckets because you had to walk to the bus in extreme heat, that's intensive exercise. please feel free to drink a gatorade after that! that's its intended use case!!!!
no: neither of these drinks should be a total replacement for water. but drinking a lot of water and then treating yourself to a fruit juice with lunch is a good idea!!! drinking a gatorade becuase you just had to walk for 20 minutes in the heat is a good idea!!!
Please Stop Spreading Misinformation About Drinks!!! It's fine if you drink things that aren't water!!!! Yes you should probably always be drinking water but drinking something else As Well isn't going to hurt you!!!! okay!!!! its fine!!!!!!
honestly so long as you are consistently getting Any (non-alcoholic) fluids in you, you're doing great!!!!!! okay!!!! i love you stay safe <3

Okay I’m not really a part of this fandom but I’ve been following along cuz it looks kinda cool
So I do wanna say that I noticed smth in the last episode of Hazbin Hotel involving Alastor?
Like it’s canonical that he’s never not smiling right? But I was watching his fight with Adam again and I saw this:
His shadowwwww was FROWNINGGGGG
But then it corrects itself like half a second later!!
It’s a blink-and-you-miss-it moment:

noticed a dip in posts about palestine on my dash, so i think it deserves to be said again: palestine is not a trend. caring about genocide is not a trend. there are still reports about humanitarian aid trucks intentionally blocked off from gaza, meaning so many fucking gazans, a big portion of them children, are just bleeding out with no help. it just came out recently that israelis disguised as women and medics infiltrated a west bank hospital, at which point they killed 3 palestinians (whom they claim were militants. right). these people are living day to day without even the most basic utilities. anyone who claims to have “activism fatigue” needs to question why they’re so severely lacking in the most basic forms of compassion. you don’t get to just grow bored of talking about palestine. please never stop calling attention to the genocide happening full force in front of us.
