Hi! I'm going to school to be an epidemiologist, and I also noticed a couple things. Here's the quick TL;DR of what I noticed:
1. Chicken pox and shingles are kids bc of the "Get it while they're young" mentality before the vaccine came out
2. Plague's hat has the plague doctor masks from the Middle Ages. The purple lips are also a symptom. (Going out on a limb, but her dress's cut shows off her boobs... like bubos, another plague symptom)
3. The card on Fuckboy Flu's pant leg has pigs on it, like the 2003 Swine Flu outbreak
4. COVID's transparent chest covering thing looks like it would really restrict your breathing if you zipped it up, like how with COVID, one of the symptoms is shortness of breath. Also, the TVs in the background have a bunch of news anchors all corrupted, like how we were constantly being yelled at from the TV screen
5. I think I figured out Tatsumagushi Disease. It's mite borne, and their lil tank looks like a mite. Maybe it's more common in the military since everyone's bunched together
6. The MERS veil could be a reference to face masks and how they stop the spread of diseases in the SARS family
7. The Pertussis headpiece has faces, and the faces have different coughing and reaction poses. Also, the pattern on their sleeves is the disease itself
8. Dengue has mosquito wings as a tattoo, and the single earring looks like a mosquito probuscus, which is how it's spread. Also, the pillbox hat and veil (as well as the black dress) are associated with mourning, and Dengue can kill you if it's not treated fast enough
9. Zika has a red eye earring, which is one of the symptoms, she's also in a tropical area, which is where zika carrying mosquitoes usually live
10. Gastro spreads rlly easy, especially if someone has the virus on their hands and touches you (that's probably why they're at a club). The fish tattoos are rlly throwing me
11. There's teeth on Rabies bc it's spread through animal bites (infected saliva in broken skin), also the scratches on his eyes and the water in them is also how it's spread (infected saliva or blood getting into a mucus membrane like your eyes)
Google was my friend for this, same with the CDC Website

I love hockey as an idea. Like: yes, let's put blades on our shoes and glide around on frozen water while hitting a rock at top speed with sticks in the shape of an L and put fun tape on. Also, let's give minimal padding to the players except for the goalie who's covered in pillows. AND it's such a good idea, we'll let children play it, so they get blade shoes, a rock, a wooden stick, and have the ability to fall over like little puppies trying to run on ice
I love hockey sm
It's hilarious

Me: I've been watching Dr. Who lately, and I want to talk about it, but it's hard explaining the lore
My cousin's grandpa who isn't even related to us, but comes for the food and socializing: I like Dr. Who, which one are you at
Me: Idk, but I'm near the end of the season, so I'm getting David Tennant soon
MCGWIERUBCFFS: Y'know, I feel like I have more in common with you than anyone else here
Me: Well, I'm also the weird kid :/
MCGWIERUBCFFS: ...I wonder what that says about me

I'm going to get into Jay and Betsy in part 2-3, but yeah. The dates are a lil weird, but I'm attributing that to it being a while since the show was worked on
How I would rewrite That 90s Show: Part 1 of idfk, Eric, Donna, and Leia
___________________________________________
First, Eric and Donna are still together bc couple goals
Second, Eric is a high school teacher bc I feel like he'd want to help students in a similar situation he was in (he teaches Astronomy/Physics)
Third, Donna is an investigative journalist and does NPR segments. She also wrote a collection of short stories and is currently working on a memoir about growing up in Point Place
Fourth, Leia actually has character. She felt like an everygirl/self insert/YN in the episodes I watched, so I do like the idea that she's maybe a little nerdy, a kind of wallflower, maybe a bit athletic. Also! Def queer, she and the other girl but not the girl dating the brother had so much chemistry
Fifth, how Leia ends up in Point Place. I like the idea that Donna got a job in California, and because of that, she, Eric, and Leia are moving. To make the move easier, Donna and Eric decide to have Leia stay with her grandparents for the summer. Idk, I feel like that makes sense
Next part is the Jackie/Kelso/Hyde thing

I was going to say something like that because Donna also *doesn't* like Star Wars. I was thinking Leia's first name would be something like Nicole (chosen by Donna), and then her middle name would be Lucy or Leia (chosen by Eric)

I love how Deceptacon by Le Tigre is the internet's go-to "Scream" song. It makes me think about what other pop songs would go with horror movies.
Bloody Mary by Lady Gaga for the Carrie movies? Too on the nose?

That 90s Show? Nah
That 50s Show, a prequel series that follows Red and/or Kitty and explains EVERYTHING abt their relationships with the other characters because tbh that shit is more interesting than half the shit in late series 70s Show. And the best part, we don't even need the original Red and Kitty.
Do I think this would actually happen? Probably not, especially with all the Danny Masterson/Mila and Ashton/ Debra Jo Rupp and Kurtwood Smith defending Masterson controversy that happened.
Do I want it to happen? Yeah.

Normalize sending the Bee Movie script to ChatGPT
Tumblr media
ChatGPT is running out of money because they haven't actually figured out how to make money with the plagiarism engine they created.
Like to charge, reblog to cast.

Ok but like actually DNI if you support the death penalty. Yes there are people who deserve to die for their crimes. No there isn’t a court in existence that should be given the power to decide who those people are
