well said! Love an iconic Wayne Brady moment
Wayne Brady: "This truth makes me Pan and part of the lgbtq+ community...I was so afraid of having my manhood questioned, but scratch that. A ‘real man’ in my eyes isn’t afraid to be honest and happy. From now on, I’ll be over here living my best life!”

thanks for the graphic @sad-hamburger-waiter! Super helpful. It also gets at something in Irving’s funeral that fascinates me: we now know what year it is in severance… and it’s definitely 2083. And that also means Jame is hella old.
if you want to do the math: Kier started his company in 1865. We don’t know if quarters align with fiscal years yet, but there are 4 quarters per calendar year, and Irving’s date of corporate death is listed as “quarter 882”. So 4 quarters per year gets you 220.5 years in business. Mark S and the gang are not doing the daily grind at Lumon in our present, but almost 50 years in the future.
Why is the fiscal year important? Because if they’re in quarter 2 of 2083 (halfway through the fiscal year), and Lumon uses a common US fiscal year starting on July 1, then Severance is taking place in Novemberish to January. Which would maybe make sense with the season? There are a few things that make that idea seem suspect, such as Rhegabi in S2E5 requesting eggnog, and Mark confirming it’s not in season.
In any case it does make the absence of a birth date for Jame Egan suspicious. Seeing as he took over Lumon in 03/08, he’s now been CEO for at least 76 years. While Kier did manage to stay CEO for 74 years, he started at 24 years old, and so would have been 98 at his retirement/death. In the case of Jame, unless he became CEO as a teenager, he is at least 100 years old by the time we see him in the show. Seeing as all other CEOs started their tenure at over 50 years old, could we guess that Jame is even older, and is approaching 130? He certainly doesn’t look it.
what does this mean for Helena? Was her father in his 70s when she was born? Or is Helena also much older than she appears…
I hadn't seen a comprehensive timeline of the Eagan family/Lumon CEOs, yet-- so I made one. It's imperfect, for sure, but I hope you will let it help you. The blue text indicates the birth year of the family member, while red indicates the year of their expiration.
The Green represents the transition of power between CEOs.
(Edit: There is conflicting information about the transition of power from Leonora to Jame. I have since seen on Lumon's website that Leonora ended her time as CEO in 2008, NOT 2003. But the Severance Wiki page states that she died in 2005. So... how is this possible? What is the truth? Any theories?)
Things I noted while making this:
Jame Eagan has no known birthday, therefore we have almost no idea where/how he fits in the family. This omission seems intentional on the writer's part. I have a lot of theories about Jame Eagan, and how his leadership has changed the direction of the entire company, but I'm saving them for a later post.
I feel that there is also more to the story when it comes to Myrtle Eagan. Perhaps a power-struggle of sorts. We know that Ambrose is "often maligned" (and don't they say history is written by the 'victors'?). We know that Myrtle was determined to be CEO from the age of 7, which is shown in an aspirational light in the Perpetuity Wing, but what if her ambitions are less virtuous? The two of them are so close in age, I can't help but feel Myrtle would have grown up aspiring to be in Ambrose's position. He only served as CEO for two years before she replaced him. Just something else about this family I've been pondering, in perpetuity...

looking for some meat to chew on the bone while more S3 information comes out? Give our little animated timeline a try!
A Nice & Accurate Good Omens Timeline
I'm back from the dead with a little side project! Friends over at @ineffable-detective-agency and I have compiled a handy dandy list with all the important Book Omens and Show Omens related dates. What makes this timeline nice and accurate? It has linked annotations! That's right, all blog posts and answers to asks ripe for the referencing. As well as little icons to demarcate Book timeline info from Show Timeline info. So if you've ever wondered what year the arrangement started in, or when Give me coffee or give me death took over Jon coffee, here's your answer! Good Omens Timeline

I live in Edinburgh and went to spy on the Good Omens filming location today. I come bearing GIFTS for the fandom.
(The photo with the red arrow on it is pointing to Derek Jacobi aka Metatron behind an umbrella, I wasn’t quick enough on the draw)
Edit: apparently tumblr only allows you to share one video so post has been updated with the better of my two featuring DT!

I know we all make jokes and memes about it, like ‘lol, Trump said we are the gender we were at conception, we’re all female now. 🤪’
but like
that doesn’t…scare you?
This is your administration. This is the knowledge that your government has….and they get high-school biology wrong. This law had to have been cross-read by several people before it was passed.
This is your government.
A bunch of rich fascists who don’t know basic science.
