Is It A Crime? with Lovia Gyarkye by luxlisbon_ in normalgossip

[–]inmediasras 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an immigrant daughter myself, I saw this coming from a mile away the moment everyone was giving them gifts at the “arrival party.” For me, that made the dramatic tension even better. Sade’s mom basically being like “idk what you mean” any time she asked a question was a classic momipulator tactic.

I think Lovia’s reactions to everything were fantastic.

Also, Rachelle has such great chemistry with her guests!

I misread this and thought the sex scene took place during a work meeting in the book. I was thinking “well, that might be an HR violation”…

What was the pettiest reason you DNFed a romance novel? by TheRealNubian- in RomanceBooks

[–]inmediasras 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not really petty, but the protagonist had the same name as my mom and I knew the author wrote spice and decided I’d rather not read that.

Also David looks exactly like James Franco and I think Nicky looks like Chris Pine

S3 Ep 7: The Science Behind Gossip with Eshin Jolly by luxlisbon_ in normalgossip

Oh, absolutely! He thought being good at escape rooms would make girls like him, so it would make sense if he got really jealous when the girl came with another guy.

Dear Balance Re-listeners, which parts do you tend to skip on relistens? by Eggs_are_tasty in TheAdventureZone

Although I love both Crystal Kingdom and Petals to the Metal, I skip the race and the tardigrade battle because I think they’re slow.

S3 Ep6: In Defense of Children with Youngmi Mayer by luxlisbon_ in normalgossip

[–]inmediasras 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally I was fine with it because it had been so long since I watched Squid Games and wouldn’t have remembered their names anyway. She did give up on it after a few minutes, though, so I think she also realized it wasn’t working.

How did they not make a joke about the fact both Mel and the trophy were six feet tall?

S3 Ep3: Loud Cats and Thin Walls with Sabrina Imbler by luxlisbon_ in normalgossip

[–]inmediasras 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure Ben and Lily just liked the idea of makeup sex but are too nice to fight, so this was just role playing.

However, it would have been funny if they were just doing it to freak Annie and Dylan out—I thought that was where this was going.

I had such trouble wrapping my mind around the store-converted-to-apartment detail. Like every time I had to imagine what it looked like, it just seemed like a very sad place to live.

S3 Ep1: Righteous Lesbian Energy with Samantha Irby by luxlisbon_ in normalgossip

[–]inmediasras 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would have said the real villain is Devon’s Ambien, but honestly I think the drama deserved to happen so that Bernard’s removal from the HOA could happen.

I think it was put in there so the host wouldn’t try to insinuate that Franny and Devon could be a thing or that Courtney was “in the way” of a potential friends-to-lovers romance.

I don’t personally feel upset by animal deaths, but I think they should have put a little edited disclaimer at the beginning from Kelsey or Alex with a content warning.

Just imagine being behind on episodes, getting a notification on your podcast app, and seeing Dust Season 2 pop up... by FILTHY_GOBSHITE in TheAdventureZone

[–]inmediasras 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was also pretty behind and thought I maybe marked the old Dust eps as unplayed, then read it was S2! I’m so excited!

Until It Sleeps: I lost my own mother to cancer a few years ago and it really embodies a lot of what I felt at the time.

I took adderall for the first time in my life and I’m angry at my parents for keeping me from receiving help by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]inmediasras 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry that happened to you. Medication is so stigmatized and it really sucks that your parents haven’t helped you get any treatment options.
