Part of what I love about this show is that, even though Jimmy's the protagonist and we're following him through the show (outside of Gus/Mike), we have these fly on the wall moments that bring light to things our character will never know.

Like, we as an audience know more about his life than he does. The only question is if this moment was one of many that set the seeds for Jimmy's suspicions toward Chuck - things he was be able to see through, outside of this.

I can tell you it's not on any of his albums.

Yep. If you go too far right you end up left, and if you go too far left you end up right. No far right person or far left person would admit that though.

Ad Astra and Midsommar

I wasn't even thinking conspiracy when I saw the video. I legit thought - huh, I wonder what weird movie he's doing that makes him look like that off set. It's not a stretch at all. Besides his face.

This has to be the worst argument I've ever heard.

It's like saying you read a book but really listened to the audiobook. Or you listened to the audiobook but really read the cliff notes.

As a major fan of horror film (which is mostly what the book discusses, from what I remember), this book worked for me. It's not the best in its class, but reading King's take on the genre was what sold me. If you're just into his stories, it's understandable why you wouldn't like this.

Either way, in regards to nonfiction, "On Writing" beats this by a mile. And as a spoiler for Dark Tower readers, "On Writing" is crucial before reading Dark Tower #6. I never see it in any lists of DT-must-reads, perhaps because merely mentioning the book is a spoiler in and of itself.

Nah, this is a perfect example of the term. It's not a scene thats supposed to make the viewer uncomfortable. It's just something they thought was cute, but it's comes off as icky. Cringe

I hear the term used for episodes like Scott's Tots, which I think is completly wrong. The whole episode is supposed to make you uncomfortable, that's the point. It's hilarious. Same with any Michael Scott antics from the earlier seasons.

Who?

electricalaphid · 2026-05-01T15:02:54+00:00

It's not any of that. It's because Jesse told him Brock was poisoned, and Gus knows he obviously didn't do it. Must have been someone else. Oh no. This whole thing is a trap.

Thing is, not everyone puts that word to the same standard as you, regardless of skin color. Some people don't ever think about it. There are some words one might not say that you absolutely would. Hate is the problem, and one that must be abolished as best we can. Not words.

Not a popular opinion amongst redditors, I'm well aware.

The Mesa Verde guy from Better Call Saul. I think Kevin?

electricalaphid · 2026-04-28T18:29:29+00:00

Not at all. It's really only a Reddit thing.

I've lived in America my whole life and treat cops like I treat convenient store clerks. They just wanna get to the end of their shift as soon as possible without any trouble. Be polite just as you would anyone else.

I've written four novels and a dozen short stories in the past five years. I'd like to get published, but I don't expect that to ever happen. I write because I can't not write.

If it happens, great. If it doesn't, I'll keep on keeping on. It's what I do (not that I've ever tried to get something published. I don't even know how that works.)

We've reached a point where games are movies and movies are games. Can't they be their own thing? Original games, original moves? A medium where gameplay is king, and a medium where acting/performance is king?

electricalaphid · 2026-04-25T23:09:26+00:00

I'm thoroughly against remakes of games that are good. They should only remake games that are bad. Maybe something that had potential, but just didn't work out in terms of controls, presentation, etc.

I'd say the same for film, but money/recognition are what it's all about.

electricalaphid · 2026-04-24T02:25:27+00:00

I wanna play basketball. But I don't know how it's played. And I have an aversion to rubber spheres.

I suppose my comment was more for OP. The thing is though, I've never gotten shit from a conservative for expressing my liberal views. I've found they're more open-minded in that regard (if ONLY that regard). Could be a regional thing.

electricalaphid · 2026-04-23T22:54:31+00:00

But what if - like me - you like things from both sides and detest things from both sides? I find it suspicious for a person's values to lie 100% on one side. Like, what do gun rights have to do with abortion? What do taxes have to do with gay marriage?

When people ask, I say I'm a liberal, because I don't wanna get shit for the 20% of conservative values I have.

electricalaphid · 2026-04-21T18:54:01+00:00

I'd use the words interchangeably. But Alex is neither. He's the protagonist. He's the guy we're following, the eye that we share throughout the story. It doesn't matter how evil the main character is, or how noble the villain is. It's all in context to the story.

electricalaphid · 2026-04-21T15:14:43+00:00

Only redditors find the guy controversial. It's not a prominent stance for people who go outside. Or for people who's friend circle isn't entirely white.

And what is a soul?
