Session #1: From the Ashes (60,465 views)

I never watched the last season of Dexter, but I was pretty into it back in the day. I had a Dexter poster in my freshman dorm. I bought his kill shirt. It's still hanging in my closet. And I agree that's weird af

That's my shit tbh. 

I love being cozy inside when it's raining, and I love seeing the flooding and branches on the ground after. I lived in Florida for 14 years. Obviously there are hurricanes in other places, but I fucking love torrential rain and violent storms and flooding and hurricanes, which is very clearly a mark of priveledge because I can view them as thrilling storms and not a threat to my life.

Once when I was either a senior in high school or home during my freshman year of undergrad, our entire street flooded during a crazy summer storm. The news had pics and video of people kayaking down the street. Like it was LITERAL flooding. The snakes all came up the driveway into the garage, and I didn't tell anyone ebcause I knew my grandparents would freak out. Anyway, our trashcan floated away. My dog and I (the other dog wasn't born yet) went out to search for it. But this was all a lie. I really just wanted an excuse to go frolic in the stormwater. And we did! My dog was swimming down the road, it was INSANE. tHE WATER came up to my knees! 

It's one of my favorite memories. But don't do it. It's unsafe because of downded poer lines, bacteria, snakes, currents, blah blah blah. ONe time me and the doggo (that same dog, my other one, Dasher, is a little bit of a coward) climbed over a dam. Like we were hiking, wandered off the trail to get closer to a river, and I wanted to go to the other side because I thought it would be a shorcut back to the parking lot. So up and over the dam we go! Only the dog made it up easy cuz she has claws, and I was slipping on algae all ove rthe dam. And then I did an even more stupid thing because I forogot how water depth works. I;m not in a state to properly relay the story, but suffice it to say I ended up with nasty lake water in my ears. I remember at the height of my stupidity I was clutching to the side of this dam, pulling myself along to shore (because I couldn't swim), and I yelled over my shoulder to my sweet doggo to NOT follow me because it might be dangerous. And she was hanging back anyway because in that instance she had way more sense than me I was a mess in my early 20's*. Anyway, when I said that I think she just registered me talking to her, because she jumped in the water. That's when I learned she is a way stronger swimmer than I am. Lapped me to shore.

And to end this story I want to say that I just came from seeing Detective Pikachu where, yes, I had 2 drinks. 

* the asterix is because I meant to say my early 20s is when I started going to CBR. In fact I was exactly 20 on the dot. Truly a low point in my emotional development

One of only two SNL sketches that matter (the other being Melanie Hutsell as Tori Spelling as Amy Fisher):

Arent these creative teams just writing a couple of pages for Marvel #1000?

I'm just now noticing this part of the post.

Last season of Dexter sucked. The last few episodes especially felt dumb.



Why is Marvel having Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale operate an all you can eat BBQ restaurant this August?
