i recognize the name but is it necessary to identify him? he can swim, pretty fast but not the fastest in the world. big deal, so can i
Heâs third all time in medal count, only behind GOATS Phelps and Ledecky idk seems better than just some schlub I guess though wiki reminds me that I mostly remember him at all because he made up that story about being robbed by OMG BROWNS.
oh and getting merked by the IAC for juicing, which he posted about on IG as it was happening which i believe is how they caught him. clearly not our smartest olympian
So, Severance
I think people will complain that not enough happens, but thatâs the way the show was in season one until the last episodes and the finaleâs crescendo. Wayyyy more questions than answers. Helly lying about what she saw while in overtime is one of the more compelling elements. It occurred to me that maybe Helly is actually now her outie on the severed floor, but that is pure speculation.
Severance
The âis she or isnât sheâ with Helly seems to be what people are speculating about. I think sheâs just Helly R. Helena would have had a less obvious lie ready to go. Hellyâs reason for lying is clear, but I think she just made the classic blunder of adding too much detail and since she doesnât know enough about the outside world, she messed up.
I guess it could be Helena, but seems like too dumb of a lie for her to have made. I guess one way we will see is if sheâs good at her job.
he doesnât have any internet lol what a boss
Watched the first episode of Laid on Peacock.
Sucks.
EDIT: I should elaborate. Premise could be good: woman finds out her exes (used loosely - most so far are just people she went out on a couple dates with or had sex with) are dead/dying. Takes the entire first episode to get to that realization. Sheâs entirely unlikeable, but not in a funny way. Every scene drags on and kills any humor. I assume sheâll have a character arc where she gets more likeable, but I donât know if I want to see if that happens.
The scariest part about the new season of Goosebumps is how poorly David Schwimmer has aged
(severance S2E1)
yeah I thought for a while that either she was her outie or maybe she had never been severed at all (if this were the case then she was hiding it from Corbel and Milchick as well) but I donât think this is it, itâs just the obvious âshe lied because she knows that if the team finds out who her outie is they wonât trust herâ
also I donât think this is spoilery, but
the ânew teamâ said something that implied they were all previously working in a different building, right? They all seem to know what macrodata refinement is already, no orientation needed, and thereâs no other MDR team in this facility as far as we know. Also, the propaganda movie they watch when the original team returns also implies there are severed facilities all over the world (which seems to conflict with the S1 implication that this was a highly experimental process and that they were trying to get legal approval to expand it?)
also,
what have the outies been doing for five months? does lumon just pay them to stay home? do they come into the office and do busywork?
what about the ânew teamâ? whereâs their old team leader? where did they suddenly disappear to?
I shut mine down the day I got an offer that place is the woat
New team felt like a throwaway joke and it does kind of ruin the setting. Going down a rope into a pit to get severed? Haha his country is so poor they cant afford an elevator but come on. Unless its a purposeful plant and comes back later I think its just a random indulgence and I choose to ignore it.
