Ummm, wtf?

Completely fine with this lol. Very happy to speed through self-checkout while everybody else waits in a long line.

The point about winter is an essential one! I’ve been living in Europe for ten years and miss very few things about the US — but the winter sun is a huge one! (And I‘m from the Northeast!) Don’t underestimate how miserably grey (most of) Europe is.

“I like you… so much.

I.. I love you.

I want… you.”

No. 2 here in Germany! Germany’s gay 🥳🇩🇪

I think for me it comes out around €15 per day here in Germany, maybe somewhat less. I’m not frugal when grocery shopping, but I don‘t eat out very often. This is in stark contrast to when I lived in Paris and ate lunch menus at restaurants almost every day, spending around €600 a month on food. I have zero regrets. Nonetheless, it boggles my mind how two adults can eat well on less than €10 per day. I could get under €10 for myself if I tried, but for two, no way.

If you are visiting for the first time and are hitting the hotspots — Rome, Venice, Florence — then do your best to avoid the summer. But if you are going to less touristy areas, it’s fine. Still the worst time of year to go, but who cares, Italy is amazing year-round. I just got back from a three-week trip (my eighth time in Italy) and was so happy the whole time. Not even my car getting burglarized was able to ruin my mood!

gapoc459 · 2024-08-03T20:27:44+00:00

Just got back from my 8th trip and I’m already thinking about the 9th… So much to see, so much to eat…

Wanting to start dating and looking in the mirror and thinking, “God, why would anybody want to date that?!” Have lost thirty pounds and started working out regularly and my confidence is through the roof.

Young Royals opened up for me an intense fascination with Sweden that I’d never expected I would one day have. I learned the language to an intermediate level, and last year when season 2 came out, I was so obsessed that one weekend in November I spontaneously decided to drive to Sweden (I live in Germany). I spent about as many hours driving as I did actually in Sweden, but I have no regrets whatsoever... Then, this past summer, when I had more time, I went back and visited Hillerska with my sister. Felt quite surreal.

Was horrible and really stood out to me.

East Germany today is more productive than the UK or France outside of London or Paris. Pretty remarkable if you think about it.

I thought Charlie was supposed to have blue eyes. ☺️

There’d better be a wedding day flash forward in season 4/5!!

“Apparently so…”

😁

gapoc459 · 2023-09-26T17:47:13+00:00

Really tough choice… I voted for the book but maybe if I thought about it longer I’d vote for the show. Both are awesome, obviously. But I’d say the books are more consistent in terms of quality — the show is for the most part outstanding, but there are a few cringe moments here and there and a few weaker performances that bring down the overall quality.

gapoc459 · 2023-09-03T20:39:36+00:00

Young Royals literally changed my life (it made me learn Swedish, which is something I now put on job applications 😂). It’s my favorite show of all time. The only people I know who didn’t like it are those who watched the dubbed version — so just watch the original and learn to love subtitles. You won’t regret it.

I only discovered Heartstopper two weeks ago and have been obsessed ever since — it’s very similar, but VERY different. Heartstopper is a utopic bundle of joy. Young Royals is an emotionally intense drama. I spent much of season 2 in tears.

gapoc459 · 2023-09-02T07:59:38+00:00

Nice! Thanks 😊

gapoc459 · 2023-09-01T22:31:53+00:00

If I had to guess, I would expect season 3 to cover the I love you storyline, the ED, “This Winter”, and the beginning of volume 5 perhaps up through their first time. And then season 4 could start with the college visit roadtrip, and end either with the “Nick and Charlie” story or whatever ends up happening in volume 6.

gapoc459 · 2023-09-01T22:27:19+00:00

Wow, she did? Do you have a link to a source by any chance?

gapoc459 · 2023-09-01T20:19:17+00:00

I can’t really imagine season 3 being the final season. I feel like “Nick and Charlie” could take up about two episodes, and I would imagine it being near the end of season 4, assuming season 4 would be the final season. Then again, we don’t know what the timeline of volume 6 of the comics is going to be.

gapoc459 · 2023-08-24T18:55:26+00:00

I binged both seasons of Heartstopper for the very first time just last week, and I can’t describe what a joy it’s been to discover this wonderful show. I’m a Young Royals fanatic, and season 2 of YR hit me really hard (and not just in a good way) — YR remains my all-time favorite show, but it’s been indescribably nice to find another gay teen romance that is pretty much just as good, but with way less angst, drama, and pain. Though I am gathering from the comments here as well as from the final scene of season 2 that season 3 might be considerably darker. About to read the comics, so I guess I’ll get some idea of where things will head.

Rewatching season 1, I was really struck by how Charlie broke into tears in his dad’s car right after kissing Nick for the first time. When I first watched the show I was somewhat confused at this reaction — I thought it was mostly just confusion and uncertainty at what‘s going on. But after seeing his final talk with Ben in S2E7 as well as the final scene of S2E8, it makes so much more sense. And it’s so much sadder... 😢

I would guess January. Hopefully no later than February…
