ghost trick is a video game that's about these questions: "when something bad happens to you, what do you do with that trauma?" and "when you do something terrible, when you make a terrible mistake, what do you do with that guilt?". it's about fate and family and hope and truth.

but, equally, crucially, it's also propaganda for the best little doggie in the whole world

#ghost trick #ghost trick phantom detective #it's also about another very good pet but that's getting into spoilers #but yeah. spent my weekend playing this (on switch because my computer can't handle its Sick Graphics apparently)#(it was worth buying twice though)#thanks secret sleepover society and lauren the flute for streaming this #and getting me invested enough that i just had to see the rest for myself asap

The year is 2042. VHS Christmas Carols is now over 18 hours long and contains 22 different holiday stories told through 80s inspired bangers. Brian Holden is still playing Tiny Tim. He is 57 years old. The year is 2042.

#this is a JOKE #I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS SHOW #I love that they've made it a full length musical #and that Brian plays Tiny Tim #honestly content-wise Brian's casting is the most Starkid thing about the show #tied with Lauren's character choices #and I really do hope he is still playing Tiny Tim at the age of 57 #I just thought it was funny.#Brian Holden #Starkid #VHS Christmas Carols #a vhs christmas carol #VHSCC

ah yes, the sweet sting of rejection from a billion dollar corporation who believes that "action stories don't appeal to romance audiences", welcome back my old familiar friend

#personal #lauren writes things #this was the EXACT problem I ran into with my gay outlaw story #and why I was just like FINE IT WON'T BE SCRIPTED IT'LL BE A BOOK #(and I mean who knows if it'll sell as a book)#(but it was NOT selling as a podcast)#how do I tell these companies that there's a whole website of people who love both action and romance #how do I explain that these people pull ships from the barest two second looks in action movies “aimed at men”#it's the conflation of romance = ladies and action = men for me #that's what really makes me roll my eyes #companies being like 'sorry lauren we just don't think people really into romance are into action'#HI I'M SITTING RIGHT HERE YOU'RE TALKING TO ME #my favorite movie is mad max and most of what I read is romance #I play violent action video games and I have a pathological need to ship #we exist #and we are legion #ANYWAY #might delete later #lauren says things

I Am All In Rewatch - Episode 1x6

The will you marry Me? scene....I think it's just basic foreshadowing. I think it's just really basic foreshadowing. Um. I think it's it's a line that was written to prepare an audience, to open up possibilities. Not that it necessarily was going to go there, but I think it was something. It was like an injection into the audiences bloodstream, okay, like Luke's in play maybe. -Scott

When she invited him to the party, he was pleased. He doesn't smile a lot, and he smirked a little, like, wow, I got invited. That was a big deal for him because I remember how I played it. It's like, okay, be really happy, but cover cover, cover, let a little smile out. That's exciting for him. He gets he gets to be invited because not a lot of people are inviting him anywhere. He's going to town hall meetings because everybody goes. But it's like, is he being invited to a lot of places. He's you know, he's grumpy Luke. -Scott

#the way he played the diner scene #perfect #i love him #i am all in #luke x lorelai #lorelai x luke #luke danes #lorelai gilmore #gilmore girls #love this episode #scott patterson #lauren graham #gif #gifs #gifset #1x6 #javajunkie

The nerds playing Mario Party be like

Steph: GO TO HELL CHASITY I SWEAR IF YOU TAKE MY STAR I'M GONNA KILL YOU Grace: Calm down Steph it's just a game rolls a 10 and steals the star YES! YES YOU LOSER I WILL BEAT YOU ALL! Richie in the corner crying: I have gotten 1s... this entire game.... Peter: Steph- Grace calm down! It's mini game time OH COME ON IT'S ANOTHER MASHING ONE I CAN'T MASH FOR SHIT!

Results after the bonus stars:

Ruth: 7 stars

Grace: 5 stars

Steph and Peter: 3 stars

Richie: 5 coins

Silence in the room while they slowly turn their heads to Ruth, who has been silent this entire game

Peter: How the- Steph: I'LL KILL YOU YOU LITTLE SHIT

Steph and Grace fight Ruth as Richie continues to sob in the corner

Do we think John Laurens is going to make an appearance in the upcoming limited series about Franklin's role in securing the French alliance during the Revolutionary War or no

#I haven't found any cast info that mentions him #So not hopeful but I probably will still watch #Lafayette and Beaumarchais are in it though #John Laurens #Benjamin Franklin #Also Michael Douglas previously played John Laurens in a weird mini movie thing so they had a callback opportunity

VHSCC OH MY GOD

(no spoilers)

Starkid nation, you aren't ready.

So let's start with the obvious. Look, I spent thirteen years growing up with Starkid. That initial Michigan gang are deeply special to me and I will always miss Dylan, Brian R., and Corey in any show they aren't in. And this one's no different. But just as Janaya came in and took over Belle from Britney so flawlessly, Curt, Brian, and AJ were all WONDERFUL in their new roles. The gentle-but-high-energy, truly decent, romantic himbo charm Curt brought to our Springsteen boy Jim (you all are going to LOVE Jim, I promise) perfectly offset the defiant, sneering anger of Young Scrooge in "That Scrooge." Brian's reactions (particularly to the "rather take my own life" line) were so funny and some of my favorite parts of the show. And AJ... this is now my favorite thing AJ has ever done. And that's saying something. The smaller casting shake-up moments (Joey as Fezziwig, other little line re-distributions) were so fun as well!

The new act 1 is PERFECTION. I was actually surprised by how absolutely hysterical it was? Like, I won't tell you what was up with that clip on Instagram of Brian, Lauren, and Joey doing a freak-out dance, but I can tell you that their whole Act 1 deal threatened to steal the show every. Single. Time. I already mentioned Curt as Jim, but you will also love Della, who is so funny and real and truly carries us through the start of the show (Janaya is a STAR and she Curt have brilliant chemistry). Ali did a terrific job of balancing the sadness and hope that are both at the center of the devastating little Match Girl. And Jamie's Grandma... well, honestly I have no idea how to talk about Jamie's song without giving stuff away.

But the real star of the show in Act 1, as he should be, was our man Clark. I can't emphasize enough how much he nailed the writing of this whole new act. I mentioned that the new stuff is hilarious, but it's also deeply heartfelt, and also sad exactly when it needs to be. Like, the transition after Jamie's song? I can't really talk about it yet, but what that moment does with emotion is unreal. And, as expected, every song is a banger! My one complaint about this show, and it IS a big one, is that there is no cast recording of the Act 1 songs. I want to listen to them all the time.

But the good news is, I CAN listen to Christmas Carol as much as I want! The classic that started it all is back, with so many people reprising the hell out of their truly iconic roles (God I love the VHS Cratchits), and better than ever. I traditionally hate change, and I love the version of VHSCC Live! we already have so much, but I think I somehow loved this version even more? The staging is alive and clever and there are some additions and changes, particularly in "Final Ghost"/"Christmas Day," that frankly blew my mind and somehow managed to elevate the material even further. I can't wait for the digital ticket to come out so that I can talk about them. To put it simply, James Tolbert mastered his Starkid directorial debut like you won't believe. I'm so proud of him and grateful for the larger role he's taken in Starkid since they moved base to LA.

Also, the Ghost of Christmas Past is extra unhinged this year? Jaime pulled out all of the impish stops and it was the BEST.

Basically, everyone more than delivered. I haven't talked about Meredith yet but she rocked it in the band and continued to validate the hell out of my opinion that "3 Spirits" is the dark horse best song in the show.

And a special shout-out to June Saito for continuing to be a costuming GENIUS. I always love her work and this production is no exception. I honestly wanted to give the return of the Bob Cratchit costume its own round of applause.

You know, the world is a mess and everything is pretty much terrible. It's been a hard year in an impossible decade. But every once in a while you come across some art that takes all of that, acknowledges the truth of it, and somehow pulls back the curtains to harness the joy and hope that's still there under the rubble. To me, Starkid in particular has always been about finding and holding onto the hope and the beauty and humanity that allows us to endure an existence that can so often feel bleak. And VHSCC is maybe the most perfect encapsulation of that idea.

So thank you Clark, James, Meredith, Brian, and everyone who worked so hard on this little bit of magic. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Let's make a little light.

#apologies for any typos it is late and I've had a wild day #Also shout out to Meredith for the number of times she teared up while playing in the band #she is so real for that #starkid #team starkid #vhscc #vhs christmas carols #clark baxtresser #james tolbert #AJ Holmes #Meredith Stepien #Brian Holden #Janaya Mahealani Jones #Jamie Burns #Lauren Lopez #Ali Gordon #Curt Mega #Joey Richter #Jaime Lyn Beatty

happy 10 years to "I've never known myself as well as I know myself when I'm with him" and "there are means of influence other than violence but violence is what you understand" and "with all my knowledge and intuition I could never entirely predict you" and "I deliberated as the phone rang, I decided when I heard his voice" and "killing must feel good to God, too. he does it all the time and are we not created in his image" and "in the walls of our hearts and brains, danger waits. there are holes in the floor of the mind" and "I let you know me. see me." and "if I saw you everyday forever, will, I would remember this time" and

"I don't find you that interesting" "you will"
