My favorite recent conspiracy theory has been "The Russian invasion of Ukraine is a ploy so Russia can finally join NATO"
I think I can sum up the issue with Grover's scenes this episode in one word; padding. And I mean genuine padding. That whole thing with Augustus was just a bunch of irrelevant stuff that wasted time in an already crammed episode. It's a pretty weird thing with this show that it seems to flip floop between rushing through plot points without giving the audience time to settle in and dragging out pretty minor stuff for the sake of unneeded exposition or comic relief.
I 100% agree with you
Just finished watching Season 2 of Good Omens. My reaction can be summed up with a single Crowley quote — “I am having a MOMENT here.”
I hate how in character it was for Aziraphale to take the Metatron’s offer to replace Gabriel. I think everyone but Aziraphale knew that there was no way in Hell that Crowley would ever want to be an angel again. Aziraphale wants nothing more than to do good and make the world a better place. And while Crowley doesn’t exactly want the world to end, he doesn’t want to be beholden to the whims of Heaven or Hell either. He just wants to run away with Aziraphale — whether that’s to London or Alpha Centauri doesn’t matter, so long as it’s him and Aziraphale together.
I also just want to say that Gabriel — I mean Jim — and Beelzebub came so far out of left field but I am HERE for it. I also appreciate that that was one of the things that gave Crowley the confidence to make his move. And boy what a move. That was honestly such an in character way for Crowley to do it — and it had to be Crowley to make that move. Aziraphale definitely wouldn’t have the confidence to be THAT bold about it.
Lastly, that CLIFFHANGER. The Metatron just casually dropping that Aziraphale is going to be preparing for the Second Coming. Once the strikes are over, I will be waiting on the edge of my seat for S3 to come out. I’m not so sure Aziraphale can truly carry out the Second Coming — not with how much love he’s developed for Earth. I can’t wait to find out how THAT turns out.
i can’t wait for when chatGPT and ai image generation also crashes and each prompt cost $50 an attempt. oh you can’t get your stolen big tiddy anime ghibli art for free anymore? you want to buy real big boy art from real artists now? beg for it. beg for it like a dog.
And this is why Crown is my favorite corps (well, and Rach Star, but mostly this)
Head very empty only Carolina Crown’s hornline warm up
people often think i'm doing it for the bit but unfortunately i Am the type of guy who just says shit like "pray tell" and "indeed" and "naught but the human heart can hope to capture the moon's beauty" (that was actually about my shitty phone camera) and nobody really knows what to do when they hear those words come out of my mouth. myself included.
The trick is to not let people know how really weird you are until it’s too late for them to back out.
