Today on the radio, I heard a song I wanted to share. But… not the easiest thing to track down certain songs and artists. It’s… not like the actually produced track I heard on local radio but… the artist himself filmed a mid to poor quality live of him doing it:
This week has been weird for me and media. I mean… let’s go back to Wednesday’s SCRUBS:
Brand new Episode Airing this week for the first time
Elliot discussing a patient with her boss and ex-husband John “JD” Dorian-
ELLIOT: I just wanted my patient to know she was still loved; maybe then she would have let us treat her.
JD: I understand but you’re not an intern. Sometimes patients choose to die. You know that.
ELLIOT: Yeah, of course I do. But I guess Georgia got to me because I thought you and I would always be together, and now I guess I wonder if at the end of my life, if I’ll have anyone at all. Must be so scary for her, JD.
Then, I also watch Animal Control and Going Dutch and they had new episodes this week, too.
ANIMAL CONTROL
Brand new Episode Airing this week for the first time
Frank is particularly stressed out dealing with his horrible father and winds up in the hospital. In an effort to get him to unburden himself more, Shred leaves the Emotional Support Donkey with him and Frank begins speaking to the Donkey.
FRANK: I don’t know, Bucky. Doesn’t he realize that you’re supposed to mellow out with age? I somehow think he’s getting even worse. And because my family sucks, I’m gonna be the one that has to take care of him and I just don’t know if I can do that. I mean, who’s gonna take care of me when I get old? ‘Cause I’m all alone. And I don’t know if that’s ever gonna change.
GOING DUTCH
Brand new Episode Airing this week for the first time
Major Abraham Shah is being recognized for his 20 years in the armed services. While his friends celebrate him, showing how much they know him, his estranged wife realizes she doesn’t know him at all. Meanwhile, Major Shah considers retiring in an effort to save his marriage. At a celebratory dinner, Shah’s wife reads a beautiful speech that someone else wrote about the great things about Shah.
SHAH: I know we’ve been talking a lot about whether a future together makes sense, right? And, um, after that toast, it just confirmed it. I mean, you understand me more than I was sure of before. And so I know…
CELESTE: I didn’t write the toast. Or plan this magical night. Maggie did.
SHAH: Wait. Maggie?
CELESTE: I’m so sorry. I know that I messed up, and I wanted to make it right, but I didn’t really know where to start. And I’ve just been having such a hard time.
SHAH: It shouldn’t be this much work.
CELESTE: No. No one can say we didn’t try.
SHAH: We tried so hard. I mean, we wore those marriage counselors out, but it feels like you and me both know it’s over.
Okay.... so… maybe… modern American Comedy isn’t where to go right now. Y’know? I still haven’t watched Alice in Borderlands: Season 3 yet! Let me rewatch the last episode in ENGLISH DUB while I do stuff around the house just to catch myself up before I return to subtitles to really watch the new season.
ALICE IN BORDERLANDS
Arisu and Usagi have finally begun the last face card game. It seems simple: play 3 sets of Croquet with the Queen of Hearts. Just play. They don’t need to win. But they cannot quit. They cannot forfeit. And they cannot kill the Queen. As the game continues, the Queen of Hearts gets inside Arisu’s head big time. In a desperate act to reach him, Usagi slits her wrist reminding Arisu that he promised he would do anything to protect her. As Arisu and Usagi lie on the floor, has the Borderlands defeated the heroes?!
USAGI: Arisu! You have to come back. Please.
QUEEN OF HEARTS: What a truly touching display. However, the feeling you call love is powerless.
USAGI: Arisu… please.
ARISU: I shouldn’t be here. I shouldn’t be alive. I have no reason to live.
USAGI: Come back. Arisu… the answer you’re looking for… a reason to be alive… forget all of it, Arisu. The truth is- everyone has a different answer. It doesn’t matter now. You don’t need a reason to live. This whole time that we were looking for answers, we’ve been searching side by side. I thought alone was all I needed. That was enough. You helped me realize what was important. It was you. It was you, Arisu.
QUEEN OF HEARTS: You poor thing. Looks like I’ve won. You’ll be forfeiting now; isn’t that right, Arisu? And then our game will be over.
ARISU: Usagi… Usagi… I want to feel your hand. Just one more time. Walk side by side one more time. And I want to eat next to you.
UASGI: Me, too. Tomorrow. I just want to say good morning to you.
ARISU: I want to laugh with you every single day.
USAGI: And someday I want us to climb a mountain.
ARISU: Just being with you. That’s more than enough, Usagi.
USAGI: We may fight, but somedays, that might be nice.
ARISU: I want you to live. I want that. I want to keep protecting you. Game on. Last round.
OKAY… well. Fuck. I would say I could just turn to Anime, but my REWATCH cycle for that right now is Sword Art Online, My Hero Academia, or JOJO. Sword Art Online is nothing but “My life’s purpose is to survive and protect the woman I love”.... My Hero Academia is nothing but “Protecting others is our purpose; and we reach our goal by sticking by our friends!” and JOJO, underneath all of the flash, is pretty much “Fate chooses who matters; but even if you are gifted with glorious purpose, you can only succeed if you have friends!”
So.... maybe I’ll just watch Rick & Morty and Dark City tonight. In fact, maybe that is why “men of a certain kind” like Rick & Morty so much. But before I get there… TikTok Doom Scroll brings up....
GAH!
I’m going to distract myself with an alcoholic nihilistic messy depressed sociopath!
