Oooo I really liked this one

2025-03-18 16:53:59 +0000 UTCThe more I listen to this episode the more I love it. It's kinda how I feel about the world. We are guests for want of a better word here, and bad ones at that who shit all over it.

2025-03-14 19:11:35 +0000 UTCI had a dream once that I got a teeth-and-flesh keyboard for a present from my mum! kinda disappointed it wasn't real tbh.

2025-03-13 13:49:03 +0000 UTCI hate being old enough that I recognized more than one medication I'm on in the list.

2025-03-12 01:41:34 +0000 UTCPeople seems to like this one.... the beginning and end were good but the case in the middle. Just seemed pretentious and meh.

2025-03-09 22:35:08 +0000 UTCI've been wondering who has administrator privileges after Colin's were revoked.

2025-03-06 18:19:01 +0000 UTCI love what they’ve done with Colin horror wise! Super cool and looking forward to the extra haunted computers! Great episode.
Rainstroll
2025-03-06 16:32:00 +0000 UTCWe did! I think the name that was mentioned was a very old way of pronouncing “Liverpool”.

2025-03-06 12:51:39 +0000 UTCStatement of….the city of liverpool?
Alice’s Bass
2025-03-06 12:49:12 +0000 UTCI'm so here for Alice being the only person with a normal reaction to everything. I love this season so much, I really thought they were going to ally but it's everyone in their own corners with their own objectives and it feels very natural.

2025-03-06 09:26:16 +0000 UTCI love the concept of the anima mundi, and I'm very glad TMP is using it.

2025-03-05 13:22:40 +0000 UTCOkay, there is definitely an ongoing theme of buildings or sections of the land itself being sentient/supernatural in some way, and I’m here for it! 😃 - There’s the garden in episode 3 that lures people in and transforms them into part of itself. - The movie theater in episode 5 was giving me vibes like the guy working there is just a part of the building itself or something, like a puppet that it uses to interact with its victims or something. - Needles in episode 6 mentions that “oh the land is definitely marked” or something like that. - In episode 8, there was the whole thing about “hungry architecture”, and repeated mentions of the phrase “you are here” (which was VERY reminiscent of the last part of today’s statement) - etc. etc. Then this statement really went all out and let the land itself speak its story. I wonder if the OIAR building is like this? Is that why FR3-D1 is the way it is, and why it can just… absorb people? 🤔
Trisidael
2025-03-05 07:55:39 +0000 UTCTrying to figure out if Diazepam 100mg is an error or not. The largest tablet dosage I've seen is 10mg and iirc even the rectal gel only goes up to 20mg. I feel like the dude who critiques propane tanks in video games now. Alex et al please provide more comprehensive medlist in future.
Reg Mortimer
2025-03-05 06:15:57 +0000 UTCNot detailed enough for Gwen’s standards I daresay
ShinyPenUnlimited
2025-03-05 00:23:05 +0000 UTCMaybe each fear is connected to an alchemical element Like meat with salt
ShinyPenUnlimited
2025-03-05 00:18:37 +0000 UTCMany alchemical references I see.
ShinyPenUnlimited
2025-03-05 00:11:55 +0000 UTCThat's what I'm saying! All the atoms that make a Colin can be used to make someone else. Someone with an EYE for that kind of thing

2025-03-04 23:10:28 +0000 UTCCOLIN IS NOT GONE GONE YAIH!!!!!! This case was so fucking disturbing, I'm in LOVE with it
MarlaBothBothIsGood
2025-03-04 21:55:46 +0000 UTCAfter a third listen through I realized Colin was reaching out for help! I really hope his story ain't done yet.
Jenny Rii
2025-03-04 21:34:45 +0000 UTCWhat if Gwen isn’t copying Lena, but is being slowly possessed by her in a Jonah Magnus stylee?
Matthew Mullins
2025-03-04 21:18:46 +0000 UTCCelia how does your freedom feel girly. I hope you're enjoying it!
Hezekiah Wakely
2025-03-04 20:03:49 +0000 UTCI gotta hand it to you, this was a fantastic episode. Just a heads up, you might want to add mentions of slavery/the transatlantic slave trade to the content warnings before the public release.
Hezekiah Wakely
2025-03-04 20:02:40 +0000 UTCThe audio glitches over celia when she says she doesnt know anything about fredi are so loud 😭😭 whoever is watching must be mad that shes lying her arse off
Bee Corrigan
2025-03-04 18:46:31 +0000 UTCalso fantastic statement, but I'm not really in a mental place to fully process it right now so I'm sticking with Keyboard Teeth
ckseldon
2025-03-04 18:36:18 +0000 UTC*chanting* Keyboard teeth! Keyboard teeth! Keyboard teeth!
ckseldon
2025-03-04 18:34:57 +0000 UTCGod damn 😳 fantastic!!
Violet
2025-03-04 18:21:33 +0000 UTCIs Colin pulling a Dr. Manhattan and trying to reassemble himself? And if he succeeds, who might follow him? Or is it someone else using his 'components' to build themselves a new body.
GloriousGe0rge
2025-03-04 18:20:12 +0000 UTCWorking with the information that Colin has been deleted down to the organic component, I’m guessing it’s not him trying to escape the system…
Ari
2025-03-04 18:07:01 +0000 UTCHonestly, mental health treatment through Merseycare is already a horror in its own right. Started off spooked! What a delicious case, though. Damn! (And Gwen trying so hard to act like everything’s fine. Gwen plz)
Rainer
2025-03-04 17:52:16 +0000 UTCi’m rocking with the theory that all the fears muddled up together and then got re-divided upon popping out in tmagp universe— perhaps the same with jon martin and jonah? i’m visualizing it like a bunch of cookie dough, formed into shapes, then smashed all back up into a dough ball again, and redivided into NEW shapes. same base, but everything has bits of the original 15 in them, but differently dispersed, re divvied up into new things in and of themselves. maybe even the same thing happened to jon martin and jonah :)))
Abigail Marino
2025-03-04 17:46:05 +0000 UTCthis was utterly phenomenal. Alex’s superb writing chops are SHINING this season. absolutely chilling episode.
Abigail Marino
2025-03-04 17:42:39 +0000 UTCSo this was my first thought too. Fake it 'til you make it kind of thing. Or as a way to stop being vulnerable with Celia (it's particularly apparent right at the end when they are talking). But it also switches immediately after hearing the email ping and I'm just suspicious haha
Khes
2025-03-04 17:40:45 +0000 UTCDefinitely her trying to mimic Lena to establish her authority, it's so funny contrasted with her also having no idea what's going on 😭
Madeline H
2025-03-04 17:20:51 +0000 UTCIs it me or is Gwen sounding more and more like Lena? Some of her phrasing is similar to Lena's (and I always thought Lena's phrasing was off).
Khes
2025-03-04 17:10:23 +0000 UTCI know know what I expected but it was not THAT
Lisette
2025-03-04 16:56:33 +0000 UTCTurns out, You are Here! 😀
Skyeoak
2025-03-04 16:44:38 +0000 UTCWait wait wait!! I listened to the ep so spoiler if you haven't yet, but did we just get an entity who is the land speaking? Holy crap. Thinking back to the caretaker of Hilltop becoming one with the Hilltop Center than Needles talking about how the land is marked... o.0 My mind is awhirl. What the heck dude!
Jenny Rii
2025-03-04 16:44:05 +0000 UTComg yes!!!

2025-03-04 16:26:54 +0000 UTCI don’t have time to listen to it yet but I’m immensely curious which kind of incident building (angry) could be
chrisiii
2025-03-04 16:24:30 +0000 UTCI was scared Colin would be reading the case or smth. Somehow it ended up being worse.
mora!
2025-03-04 16:23:49 +0000 UTC“This isn’t (Celia’s) fault” 😡
Colors Futrell
2025-03-04 16:22:27 +0000 UTC“a bit much” was the correct assessment thanks Alex
Anthony
2025-03-04 16:19:46 +0000 UTCThe horrendous puns 😭 oh my god…. oh my god what do you MEAN teeth…. this is the best development EVER
