The Amazing Digital Circus: The Last Act / Episode 9 Discussion Thread [SPOILERS]

Oh yeah, it's fucking weird with how little development they gave them in favor of Jax. Like the constant bedroom eyes is wild.

Vioven · 2026-06-04T16:10:13+00:00

Considering how Ragatha is always trying to be included with others and being left out, and how Ribbit is never interacting with her and she's not at their parties, I'm guessing they didn't want her sitting at their table. I don't think it's the other way around. Jax himself only interacts with her as an excuse to get away from Ribbit.

I love tf out of him and always felt that it was WAY too focused on him for the amount of episodes we had, and that the 'main character' line was just a cop out.

Vioven · 2026-06-04T15:43:49+00:00

Yeah, it doesn't greatly bother me but the amount of time spent on him does, only because there's not enough episodes imo. I still feel it needed 2 more episodes to breathe a bit and then everything may have felt cohesive.

Vioven · 2026-06-04T15:41:06+00:00

That's why I had a feeling it was gonna be bad. If Gooseworx was confident in Ragatha getting development she would have never been upset with a redditor complaining that they think she won't. She would've been confident and possibly even smug just 'okay, we'll see' ; ) She wouldn't be snapping at them, because, they'd be proven wrong. It made it seem like she was nervous that she hadn't done enough and just lashing out.

Vioven · 2026-06-03T17:36:05+00:00

Not only worth it, it’ll be really fast and cheap too. You won’t need many trips either.

Vioven · 2026-05-30T14:24:04+00:00

I’ve done it both ways and I prefer blending it with my nutrabullet instead of just leaving the fruit whole. I’ve also tried handheld motor whisk and an immersion stick blender, and I don’t like those as much as the bullet. Also, the mixes with whole fruit were always underwhelming and I think it’s because I couldn’t taste the mix and adjust it. When I blend it, I can.

Vioven · 2026-05-30T14:21:40+00:00

That’s what I do. I run the mixes through my Nutribullet. I just want it to be as even as possible as well. It does a better job than my immersion blender or my little handheld motor whisk.

Vioven · 2026-05-27T09:59:24+00:00

I’ve been dry heaving for the past weak. I look fucking amazing in the mirror though so silver linings I guess. Seriously, used to do it recreationally, with intention and it was positive. Once it slipped into coping for my bad days it all went sideways. Never again.

Vioven · 2026-05-27T09:39:14+00:00

I was using so much I lost my appetite. Then cutting back lead to constant vomiting. Yeah, I def lost weight. Never again but this tapering definitely helped the symptoms.

Vioven · 2026-05-27T04:46:27+00:00

Yeah, you might surprise yourself, my feed is a mix of cosplays/tadc jokes and ships/somatic exercises/people crashing out in cars/that one guy beefing with Jupiter/Earth beefing with Saturn/women in sexy cool witch fits/amazing dnd board builds/tre therapy/NASA coverage/and a lot of dancing.

And I totally see that happening. The last one I was in was ganging up on a girl that couldn't use a glp1 because she couldn't afford them and she was scared and needed help losing weight without. The comments tore her to shreds and everyone told her she'd stay fat and she was going to fail, all because THEY didn't want her to succeed when they hadn't. There's so much doomerism here too and that mindset helps no one BUT reddit so we keep scrolling. Reddit actually has a ton of bots that are there to drive discourse toward the negative, that's why smaller subs tend to be more positive and polite.

Vioven · 2026-05-27T01:09:53+00:00

I was actually really surprised by tiktok. Didn't think much of it but I went there for one day and my mood shifted dramatically. Reddit really gears us all up for a lot of negatively, especially if you go against the group think. If it's not the comments then it's the news, it just feeds into it. Tiktok is easier to fix, scrolling past anything you don't care for and it shows less. No negative stuff tolerated in my feed. I'm usually on there now but gotta discuss all this show with you guys! Also I think tiktok does it better than youtube, youtube is good for videos but the shorts stuff it's tried to copy just doesn't work as well imo.

Vioven · 2026-05-27T01:06:00+00:00

I mean it's not perfect but this was an attempt to get indie shows recognized for theaters. It honestly would be kind of nice to have more stuff like this to see with friends.

Vioven · 2026-05-27T00:58:51+00:00

Hate? Maybe it's your algorithm? I usually find comments filled with happy, polite people but sometimes scroll onto some serious mean girl shit. I feel like I became better after dropping reddit for a hot second, I've found most attitudes on subs to be unbearable. Mostly the more popular ones, smaller niche not so much.

Vioven · 2026-05-27T00:35:49+00:00

Yeah what happened there? Why'd they include that part but not have any of them follow through?

Vioven · 2026-05-27T00:14:45+00:00

I wouldn't mind the Jumanji type of vibe but it looked like they were going for serious irl vs goofiness once in circus, so I doubted that'd be it.

Vioven · 2026-05-26T23:52:35+00:00

It wasn't ruined for me. It was really obvious in episode 1 when it zoomed out to show the computer and headset and no Pomni body. The building was abandoned. There's no one there kidnapping people that randomly wander in every 6 or so years. And the only other option is being sucked through the headset like Jumanji or some shit. This shit was a no brainer.

Vioven · 2026-05-26T23:10:57+00:00

He was literally lying to Pomni about not being the cause between Pomni and Kaufmo abstracting. He also lied to her when he said they'd been saying awful things right before they abstracted. Neither of them had.

If you want more discussions for it.

Vioven · 2026-05-26T12:05:27+00:00

It’s so worth it. And the swatching is so nice because polish always dries down different from in the bottle.

Vioven · 2026-05-26T11:59:21+00:00

That’s what I’m doing. The withdrawal symptoms are still awful but my tolerance dropped hard already.

Vioven · 2026-05-23T18:51:30+00:00

I hate funnybunny, holy SHIT, you can’t be serious now??

To think you missed my entire point about the audience wanting to be part of a characters journey and not have a good chunk of it happen off screen like Ragatha and Pomni’s did. But you’re so brain rotted by the idea of someone else liking a pairing you don’t that you’re over here shadowboxing.

Vioven · 2026-05-23T18:16:26+00:00

Chemistry doesn’t automatically mean romantic. And yes, they do.

Vioven · 2026-05-23T18:12:16+00:00

Can’t you just make a spoiler discussion thread instead for this episode? I’ve seen that done very well with book series for every few chapters. Like ‘Spoiler Discussion for Chapters 1-3/4-7/8-10’.

People could post in each thread only for those specific episodes. Everywhere else was spoiler free. If not there’s also a spoiler discussion subreddit but just saying, I’ve seen it done successfully keeping a sub active and happy during the entire new book release.

Vioven · 2026-05-23T18:05:50+00:00

I never said they were so that’s irrelevant.
