You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

This season of Community has been incredibly upsetting, and I think I may just be done with the show. I turned off this week's ep five minutes in because it was making me so uncomfortable to watch. The pacing is completely different since Dan Harmon left and it just makes my skin crawl now.

I should watch some old Community to feel better.

I hear you, Jessica. I've been enjoying this season, but I've had to put some effort into that, and it definitely both looks and feels different enough to be unsettling.

Concur. I haven't hated this season, but it's not really my Community.

Yeah. It's weird and not in the good way, but there are still pockets of enjoyment. But it's not a little mini-movie* every ep anymore. And the characters feel randomly off sometimes. But the first three seasons of love are carrying me through for sure.

*By which I mean, the previous seasons' episodes always felt dense. This season, they're wispy.

This is me.

Jessica, on the one hand I am kind of surprised you have such a strong, negative reaction. But I suppose I can kind of see it. It's like uncanny valley for a tv show. Can a tv show be body-snatched?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I was toastmaster at my Toastmasters club on Monday night, and our timer was the vice president, a woman named Roxanne. I was happy to be able to inform the club that tonight she would be putting on the red light.

I just poured myself some more bourbon.

Had a orange and cherry infused manhattan tonight. WAY too good for my sanity.

That sounds awesome, Vortex.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

You are all making me want to drink. I might be too tired to drink, but I do finally have a day off tomorrow. Hm.

Very glad you have a day off, aurelia! About time.
