- embroidering a jacket with one of Jonny Sun’s tweets & showing it to him in person at a book signing. we continued to interact online & he sent me an advanced copy of his next book 🥹
- meeting Dante Basco while volunteering at the Austin Asian American Film Festival after rewatching the entire ATLA series
- obsessing over Bojack Horseman & following Bojack Hidden Jokes on Instagram, who documented every background pun, niche reference, callback, and subtle theme, leading to a much deeper appreciation of the show. lucius & i visited San Francisco & we got to meet up with the person behind the account & recorded a recap commentary episode for her podcast.
- The OA fans STILL campaigning for the show to be renewed & studying every episode
- calling in to the Thirst Aid Kit podcast to ramble about Henry Golding

i’ve been really enjoying dropout content?
- dimension 20 is their actual play show, i would recommend the fantasy high: freshman year arc (that is on youtube!) or their dungeons and drag queens season (it’s also on youtube!)
- make some noise is their like improv-y grown up theatre kid show and they have full episodes on youtube
- game changers is a show where the structure of the game changes every episode? which is fun at least to me because it’s something new every time
- rewatching the harry potter series gives me something to watch and frequently gives me ideas of something more interesting to consume while i view it (not in a bad way!! i’ve just seen it so many times that it’s not like refreshing anymore it’s background noise lol)
- watching as many of the 90s/early 2000s shakespeare teen movie adaptations (shakespeare needle freak sorry), personal faves are she’s the man and romeo & juliet
- also just getting really into not necessarily a hobby but watching people do their hobby (binge watching people hand-make cards? or listening to someone explain everything you need to start needlefelting) so even though you don’t want to start that hobby you at least know a little bit more about it
- and finally just reading and rereading the perks of being a wallflower. the audiobook makes me sob everytime
i hope this helps and as someone who also grapples with needing an emotional support show/book/etc, even when you don’t feel like life is worth living it’s always worth it to wait around until it is again you know?

im obsessed with doing this lately; i’ve never been good with watching shows that have finished/have a lot of seasons to get through because i have a short attention span. i tell everyone that i love the sopranos, but i’ve been on episode like, 12? of the first season for like, 9 months. 30 rock, the bear, veep… all shows that i started and really truly liked, and told everyone i know how much i liked them, but i haven’t watched an episode in weeks. and frankly, no one questions me!
