Emmet Better Show Up In A Game Soon Or I Riot

Wtf is the 3rd episode! Clive's heaven sounds like my hell. This had been the first episode I've had to stop and back away from. I honestly feel horrified, fuck this hyper capitalist world.

Clive Shill: You hear that Warren? I'm your wife now!

Why did he say that

WHAT IS GOING ON.

mind control drugs? vampires? cutting off your own dick? cannibalistic senators? dead babies? job interviews ending in murder? heads on platters? how did we get here

I genuinely wished I had an inch of sanity left. Tomorrow is my exam I will determine if I'm continuing on. I've literally spent well over 80 hours this week just studying.

Ive decided to treat myself, and spent a whole 10 British pounds on the behind the scenes audio of Red valley, in preparation of my journey home after the exam.

The only thing that's keeping me going right now is the idea that I could be an unethical scientist just like my girl boss Bryony.

I fucking screamed when Malcolm came back! Fucking love him.

I know Humans is a dead show with a very lacklustre final few seasons.

I have a lot of thoughts I want to share, I watch the original Swedish(?) production and there was some of the things I wish I brought over but I do think the British version is significantly better.

I do wish they had a default model, in the Swedish show they showed that there was a default model that was basically meant for manual labour that lacked a lot of capacity.

Also when the family were looking for answers in the original Swedish version they go back to the seller and they've got a model that has a life narrative, when they check it out they realise the life narrative is superficial and is near enough just like fanfiction.

The things I like about the British version is that there's a lot more talk about mods. Also Dr Milligan keeping his original D series synth is very interesting and accurate to how people treat rumbas. (I myself have a robot vacuum that I will die for even though it keeps eating my knickers)

Dr Mulligan is overall a very interesting character but his new synthetic feels very accurate to the healthcare assistant but also doesn't think he would have qualified for 24 hours support. I would see it be more accurate having a synth for maybe 12 hours a day and then the synth would go somewhere else, that's a very minor complaint though. I also feel bad for the GPs, imagine having to deal with hundreds of requests from synthetics asking if it's ok to move a bed. (I think the implication that the GPs are also synths)

I also find the addition of the pretend synth subculture very interesting. As someone who's definitely a little bit neurodivergent I never felt so seen, The idea is pretending to be a robot and not having to deal with conversations just doing what you need to do without having to partake in society sounds like a dream to me.

I do think the first season of this show is really amazing, there are some questionable moments but could be a lot worse.

If you're like me and going though withdraw from red valley give The Effect a listen to.

The effect is on BBC sounds but there is also a copy on YouTube. It's originally a play so I'll be keeping an eye out for a live version.

It's a lot more romance forward than red valley and less sci-fi but still good and has different themes.

Subway twins maybe.
