It would never happen but a One Hit Wonderland on Friday would be the most insane episode ever as it would start on a song that became a meme mocking a vanity project bought for a teenage girl and end on a widely respected cult electronica bombshell artist’s critically acclaimed career.

Jokes aside, a good volume is a study in character based comedy. Everyone is well etched enough to have clear voices but the book doesn’t drone because they’re rather diverse characters. The jokes are tight. Pure slapstick and verbal lacerations

All three are great books

Since I’m talking Archie today, the Indian adaptation on Netflix is pretty good but not great. Like it fills the time and it gets the tone right but the acting is abysmal. It needed the Riverdale cast

Like there are so many great scenes but then it’s weirdly padded and the setting of the past weighs it down. It’s actually very progressive with a gay attraction subplot so it should be set now

It really is fan service defined. There is nothing there if you aren’t an Archie fan. The acting is seriously fatal. But it was nice to see the characters in motion

I need everyone to understand I am having a very severe and very public autism episode. I want something I can’t have. I’m really upset other people are getting their version of the thing I like but I hate their version. And I need my version to keep together. But I can’t get it.

I want movies or comics or books that hit that Archie note. Sweet, happy love stories I can experience quickly. I am not getting that from Wildwood or You Can See Everything.

I’m glad I finally can codify what I’m craving using Archie at least. If I say I want an Archie type story you get what I mean. Screwball heightened slice of life romcom

I’m collapsing because I need a coping mechanism and instead of getting it I’m getting things that are causing me to have a panic attack and meltdowns. I’m so sad I can’t hold together as a person.

I am in the most stressful period of my job. I am financially destroyed. My brain is craving my autistic special interest and it has abandoned me. And unfortunately you can’t move that chess piece easily. I can’t move to a new special interest quickly in this emergency.

The good thing about realizing this is I have tons of Archie in my library

I did finally realize why I’m so obsessed with beauty and romcoms in art. I found the art that made me who I am. And I believe I know my curse that has ruined me. I am doomed because I grew up on Archie Comics

So. I’m going to ask the saddest most heartbreaking ask possible. Can you send money so my family can have a Christmas. Even working 10 hours a day for 3 weeks, I don’t know if we will have the money I want. We need a tree. We need gifts.

Godzilla is two weeks away. I’m working overtime 8 of the next 10 days. I still feel bad about my job. I feel bad about me. I want something to love today. :,(

I have read a great vampire novelization by the same writer, the forsaken, and god I hate that that will get overlooked. It’s a genius novel of a great film.

I really do relate to James Cromwell in Six Feet Under (before they realized what they’d done and retconned him to be a bastard.) My mental illness is controlling me and nobody wants to be around me and wishes I would go away.

The small win I got today: I realized I had a better plot twist than my original concept where my hero was targeted not because he was mistaken for a love interest but because his mom wanted to sacrifice him to become a demon queen. Then I realized he knew this all along and it drove him.

I'll note I do get annoyed by key jangling art too. But bad news. I am not immune to propaganda

Just had someone condescendingly post an image of keys jangling because I said I was excited for the Marvel/Star Wars comic. I blocked that asshole but here’s my response: Duh that’s what it is. I acknowledge it. Let me enjoy it because I’m incredibly stressed and the joke I saw cracked me up.
