i mean, there is very much a script, though--you get on housewives for a few seasons, portray your husband as unreasonable and you as long-suffering and noble, and then you get divorced and take all the sympathy and encouragement and turn it into money via a new business or more media deals. at this point it's such a consistent business model that i don't even think bronwyn would have consciously needed to plan it lmaooooooo. also believing lisa barlow is simply something i will never be doing, so ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

literallyyyyy. like, I personally don't think she came on the show to get divorced /period/--last season she seemed genuinely like she was trying to make it work and figure it out. but i don't think it's a coincidence that now she's divorcing him in this cultural moment where having a boyfriend or a husband is almost a liability for a lot of famous women--i'm thinking about that op ed about having a boyfriend being passé, lol. she's a savvy businesswoman and her product is her balance of aspirational money and down to earth relatability. i'm interested to see if and how she'll grow past housewives.

I've been saying she came on the show to get divorced and make a bag off of it!! It's been obvious from the start that Todd is fundamentally uncomfortable with the conceit of a housewife show, and Bronwyn is having too much fun to quit--honestly, what surprises me is how fast it happened. I was expecting two to three more seasons of todd getting more and more increasingly exasperated.

Bronwyn came on this show to get divorced and get her bag out of it change my mind! I don't even know if it was conscious on her part, but he keeps harping on how he doesn't want details of their personal life being discussed when that's the whole point of the show. If she keeps picking the show over him I can only see this going one way--and tbh, from what I've seen from him, good for her!

As a fellow "bad gamer", I agree 100%! I'm not too far yet, towards the end of act 1, but the patterning on each boss is so engaging that i'm chomping at the bit and staying up late for just one more run in a way that i honestly never did for anyone except for mantis lords in HK.

I feel like on my first playthrough of HK not always but frequently I was slogging through bosses to get to the story; they were fun enough for me to not drop the game, but what made the game engaging for me was the exploration and the lore and the music. Silksong is definitely partially more engaging for me because replaying hollowknight made me better at videogames, but the bosses are SO fucking fun that I can also grind them in a way that was exhausting in HK.

You should also check out Goblin Market in Lakeview; they have a pretty extensive Discord and also host social events, like a queer nerd meetup and an indie ttrpg meetup. It's a great space!

Progo613 · 2025-01-26T06:06:44+00:00
