Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

I look more rad than Lutheranism

It does not get *less* intense. Good job looking out for your own well-being.

Agreed. My anxiety responds to watching high-anxiety things sometimes.

Okay, I'm giving episode 2 a shot, because I really like the characters (damn Noah Wyle's charisma, and that one really pretty [guy] doctor [look, I don't know the names yet]) and people keep posting gifs of The Pitt on Tumblr.

Where medical dramas trip my anxiety is that they showcase how many truly horrific things can happen to the human body, holy shit. (And you may be thinking, Teppy, you have been a medical editor for basically your entire career, aren't you used to horrific medical shit? And that is correct! But reading about fucked-up medical shit is different than seeing it reenacted in technicolor on my TV screen.) And then I get panicky because holy shit, that's a thing that could feasibly happen to me or someone I love! And that is technically correct—anything could happen. I just sure the hell hope it doesn't.

Anyway, I'm going to watch episode 2, either after Daredevil tonight, or tomorrow.
