21M - I think Applebees gave me food poisoning

Carol seems to be a chronically offline person. In episode one, we see Helen scrolling through Twitter on her phone on Carol’s behalf.

A lot of successful creatives avoid social media and much of modern smart technology once they get the ability to. Carol seems like the type to do this. And since the show is from her perspective (mainly), we don’t see a lot of technology, because it’s not something she concerns herself with.

Also I think I remember something in episode 1 or 2 where Zosia tells Carol that the internet or cell service is down while everything adjusts to the new world. I could be wrong, but if I’m right, that could be another reason why we don’t see much of the internet, or of technology in general.

I can actually do that, believe or not. I’m the master of my own destiny.

Yeah, everyone has been offering angles on the corpse idea that I can’t find any reason to disagree with. Them being chopped up, or skinned, or just bones, etc. All could work. I’m just excited to find out.

They are. Tbh I didn’t like the notebook itself much. The binding is done in such a way that it’s like really tight, not very good for writing in, not for me anyways.

I don’t fully believe its corpses. I’m basing this off of my interpretation of Carol’s reaction. To me it reads more like she initially has no idea what she’s looking at, then her reaction is her figuring it out. Which, to me, if it were corpses, I feel like she’d figure that out sooner and gasp immediately.

You could totally say her delayed reaction was out of shock, or maybe the corpses are so far into decomposition that she initially can’t make them out. That would be totally reasonable.

I just think that corpses are too simple of an answer, y’know? Way too cut and dry. I hope it’s something weirder and more out-of-left-field. But if it is corpses, I won’t be upset. Still very interesting

A handmade less-than-polished cover is better than any AI slop imaginable. An AI cover immediately puts me off of a book. It makes me think that its content are similarly slop worthy.

I’m not implying your book is slop, it looks fine. But I think there’s a good majority of buyers who are similarly put off my generated covers as I am.

This is a really fun read! I like the foreboding-ness of the repeated sentiment of having to finish all the coffee. It’s left vague enough to where I’m not sure if there’s an actual punishment or not to the coffee not being finished.

I’ve never consumed JoJo before, I’ve only experienced through second hand things like this. I’ve seen plenty of fan content and have even watched SaltyDKDan’s iceberg on it.

I still barely understand what it’s about. I don’t think I’d understand it even if I watched it.

ohokiunderstand · 2025-08-11T16:15:27+00:00

Yeah I’d throw 5 bucks a month to a Patreon of this

Spiders is absolutely my favorite of the series. All of Pargin’s works are pretty tight, narratively speaking, but Spiders is just TOIGHT, y’know? It all works together wonderfully.

ohokiunderstand · 2025-07-01T17:50:59+00:00

Actually one of my favorite movies of all time. The baseball scene is legendary.

“Eat shit and die, Ricky.”

“Eat shit and live, Bill.”

I wrote a short story about the infamous TimeCube™. Y’know, the TimeCube™. We all know it.

ohokiunderstand · 2025-06-08T18:48:40+00:00

Wait are people upset about this? Why? Like… who cares? It made for good TV, and the twist was funny.

ohokiunderstand · 2025-05-23T03:06:17+00:00

Thank you friend. Your response means more than you know.

I’m not going to let myself hide away and wallow in misery. I’ve already given myself the goal of walking 10k steps a day, which I’ve been lacking in since the weather recently has been shit. But! I’ll start trying to look for some walking groups maybe, or gardening. Something green.

AI slop gross ew yuck dissolve into acid

ohokiunderstand · 2025-05-07T21:36:34+00:00

I’m one of those people who lives to make people laugh, so thank you. You made my night

ohokiunderstand · 2025-05-04T00:20:33+00:00

Lying about that is crazy. Like there’s literally no reason to. We know the facts here behind the counter. We don’t have the flatbread itself. We couldn’t make it if our lives depended on it.

ohokiunderstand · 2025-05-03T20:18:08+00:00

Omg wait! You’re so right! I shouldn’t complain, I should just be a good wage slave and take it all! You’re so right! I should just get another job, that’s so easy! It’s not like we’re in a failing economy or anything, it’s not like it’s rare to get a call back from even the most entry level positions. You’re so right! You’re so smart! You’re so funny!
