Less than a minute into the first ep, one of the guys says "you remember Binge Mode?" (MY ALL TIME FAVE POD) and then does the Jason "DEEEEEEPPP" thing and I knew I was in for good stuff.
Anyway, I binged all of the Empty Netters Heated Rivalry eps yesterday. Fantastic.

Not only does this intentionally violate the First Amendment to the US Constitution, it’s vile to watch mean-spirited, selfish ghouls who starve the poor and kidnap people for their skin color sanctimoniously pretending they follow any of the teachings of Jesus.

Rewatching Heated Rivalry this week so I'm extra ready for the finale and have to say, the guts and brilliance of packing a completely different love story into the 3rd episode, a single episode, INCREDIBLE.

TFW good news a little too late, and not quite enough, just saps your will to press forward and prompts a crying jag worse than if it had been only bad news. This is absolutely not about my work, not even a little bit, no way.

Between the cat limping and unexpected fireworks it will be a wonder if I sleep tonight. Gotsdam but I'm terrible at easing out of vacation mode, the way I can feel work problems twisting around me like poisonous vines.

Mein Gott. This is not how umlauts work.
that’s the new yorker house style and i’m surprised so many people are only noticing it today
they use an umlaut when there are 2 identical vowels but you pause and pronounce the second one differently
