Wooooooooooooh

Also, both are ambiguous with what time they’re set in: Futurama in the future, Archer likely in the 60s/70s, but both constantly referencing current events and technology.

When it comes to his wife and Barbados Slim he is.

That’s how I do YT. The good creators usually have a consistent release schedule. The really top tier ones may only release every few months, but by only browsing subs I’m sure to catch them.

I’m seeing a lot of judgement on pretending Santa exists vs being 100% truthful with your kids. I don’t think either way is a bad way, but don’t judge others if they choose to pretend Santa is real.

With that being said, I do agree that if you are going to go with the Santa story, when the kid asks if they are real you should be truthful.

I just went through this with my 9 year old. She just came up one day and asked me if Santa was real and I told her no. There were a lot of follow up questions and it made her realize the tooth fairy, Easter Bunny, etc were the same situation. She asked me why we pretended Santa was real and I explained for us it was nice to see the magic that they felt from a stranger being kind just for kindness sake.

For me personally, I think it’s a good lesson for kids to begin logically questioning their world and what they’ve been told.

V-giny

I legitimately don’t 😂

I enjoyed Ahsoka mainly because it built on the more fringe themes from Clone Wars and Rebels (the witches) and continued the Rebels character’s stories. I agree though that the choreography was pretty stilted. Maybe it’s a side effect of filming in the infinity stages they’ve been doing most of these shows in… lower budget, or maybe less room for standard camera angles, who knows.

I had to Google Ad Astra, that’s how little it had an impact on me, lol. I remember seeing it in theaters, and the moon cowboy chase, but that’s about it.

Tendi has a main account that’s all emojis and an alt where she’s a masterful troll and manages to end all online arguments with the other side crying in shame.

I tried to listen to the audiobooks after watching the show. You’re definitely right, the show knocked it out of the park.

I like that they ended it, but hope we get to see the story pick back up somewhere in the future. So many plot lines to continue exploring.

I’m like that a lot too with anything in space, but Star Wars clicked for me when someone reminded me it was fantasy in space, not science fiction. Ahsoka really leaned hard into the fantasy and keeping that in mind helped me with suspension of disbelief.

In other words, Star Wars technology is so different and advanced, we might as well consider it magic and not question when it goes against our normal understanding of physics.

My favorite recurring joke on Lower Decks is the Tamarian crewmember’s response to random situations

I watch/listen to Archer when I’m going to sleep. The coma seasons grew on me. A lot of great recurring jokes and references.

I will say this last season was absolutely the best of the post coma seasons. I don’t know if Adam Reed was more engaged since it was the last season (he had stepped back after the coma seasons) or if they just took more time to refine the episodes and jokes, but it just felt like everything clicked. Kind of made me sad it was the last season, but great that we’re getting a special finale!

I’m doing my part pumping up the numbers. I’m a Futurama sleeper

Look Who’s Talking Now

Huh? Lol

My rule of thumb is if it’s spammed all over YouTube, then It’s going to be shit in some way. Temu, TikTok, Raid Shadow Legends, Better Help, that stupid cereal brand that was advertised for a while, etc.

They have such sights to show!

It used to be good. They went downhill at some point in the last 5-10 years. Their bread sticks always taste like store bought now and they got rid of my favorite meal (the steak gorgonzola Alfredo).

I wonder if they’re repackaged due to not meeting certain quality control thresholds, but still technically useable
