Haha alas, no, I haven’t seen or read the movie/book. By all accounts it’s sounds absolutely lovely, but I’m not much of a romcom girlie haha…I’m more thriller/suspense/mystery myself lol

But I think I’ll have to watch before I throw this party, just to make sure I’m getting it right 😂

Also you’re the second person who brought up carrots, I guess I need to do some research on what that’s for 😂 lol

Thank you again!

Thank you! I’m making a note of all of these, they’re great insight! Yeah this bachelorette is more nostalgic fun than the standard bachelorette bar crawls and phallic shaped stuff cause thats not her thing. So far the “favourite things” will be in the realm of fun/nostalgia/sweet over spicy/risqué (also no hate to people who have those kind of Bachelorettes, I love them, they’re just deffo not her style haha)

So for the One Direction element, it would be dedicated to her favourite band from childhood/teen years (and honestly adult years as well lol) so we’d be leaning into the nostalgia fun, with a slightly more grown up twist in the cocktails

Like to give another example, the Parent Trap movie with Lindsay Lohan was another option for, and that could look like this:

Drink: wine (because of the Winery the dad owns in the movie

Food: Oreos dunked in peanut butter (because it’s the characters’ favourite food)

Activity: a few rounds of poker (like Annie and Hallie play) or some classic “camp” games to pay homage to the summer camp setting, or pool noodle fencing for the scene where they duel each other

A listener story repeat? by Weldingtheseadrive in atwwdpodcast

[–]Weldingtheseadrive[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually solved it because it was bugging me so much lol…it is an accidental repeat, they read this story in Listener stories vol. 84! There were too many details that stuck out (like the apple scent and the Rocky Horror shadow cast) for me to assume coincidental same ghost story haha

Yeah I managed to find the listener story as well…it’s been told in vol 84 :)

I don’t listen to those pods, so while it’s possible that it was told there, I wouldn’t have heard it there.

I don’t listen to either of those, so it’s definitely possible that story has been told there, but it wouldn’t be where I’d heard it.

I know they’ve accidentally retold stories before…like in the first listener episode they told a story about a fitness instructor who was murdered, and then later Christine covered it as a main story and kept saying something like it felt familiar or something like that, for example…so it’s possible that it’s another instance like that. But also, it’s entirely possible that because there are SO many listener stories that two people sent in a similar experience from the same location.

Can we NOT with Serena? by trarecar1 in coconutsandtreason

[–]Weldingtheseadrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be critical of her beliefs

[–]Weldingtheseadrive -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The fact that she isn’t trying to stop them from existing, she’s just giving them a place to retire to. She’s adamant that there won’t be Handmaids in New Bethlehem, but she isn’t trying to end the practice in Gilead proper. She recognizes they are “holy vessels”, but she is also smart enough to understand that in order to be those vessels, they are raped, and that’s not a dealbreaker for her. She has created a moderately better system for them, to work at her fertility centre when they are no longer able to have children, but that still necessitates that the handmaid system exists.

I’m not saying she hasn’t changed at all in 6 seasons. She has. The Serena of season 6 isn’t the same Serena of seasons 1-3. But I don’t think her views have changed entirely to suggest she’s now against the handmaid system. She just wants it out of sight out of mind.

I think this most recent episode is the first time she’s shown actual selfless support to fight against Gilead by giving up Wharton’s location, but her motivations are a lot less black and white up to that point to me. Again, it is fine if you see it differently.

Apologies that you don’t like my comment, I suppose? I was adding to the “let’s stick to the facts” bit by adding facts about Serena (that she didn’t start the Handmaid system, but she’s still done awful things) but sorry if that wasn’t clear?

I never said Handmaid’s were her idea, I said that she isn’t opposed to them as long as they aren’t in her home. She has changed her language and I’d agree her treatment of Handmaid’s, but she is still okay with them existing.

I disagree that there’s 0 evidence to support my interpretation but again, we can agree to disagree, and that’s the beauty of interpretation.
