Ok so this was just a funny idea that popped into my head because I drink so much caffeine. But I suddenly found myself NEEDING to know how many shots of espresso could I theoretically take before I kneel over and die of an overdose.
I'm pretty sure I could get at least 30 shots in before my head starts to hurt too much and then I collapse, so tune in next time when I buy a bunch of shots and test my hypothesis out!
[ID: A screenshot of an article, the text reads "I know you're desperate to know how many shots of espresso can kill you. Depending on many factors, a lethal dose of caffeine is between 5,000 and 10,000 milligrams. That's roughly between 75 and 155 shots of espresso." End ID]

heartstopper: the best show out of 2022 so far
posted: 4/26/22
this was supposed to be a post about the shows I've been watching recently but i ramble on a lot
starts playing lover by taylor swift...
a few spoliers for heartstopper!
a tv show that was adapted from a webcomic by alice oseman! i had actually never heard of this show until twitter blew up after it was released. i think it's one of the best shows I've seen in a while (and that's kinda saying a lot). i love all the characters and the representation in the show. one thing that i noticed while watching is that they rlly nailed how teenagers talk and interact with each other. through the texts and dialogue, i felt like i was talking with my friends. sometimes the dialogue was witty, sometimes it was just plain awkward and that's how me and my friends talk so i think it was great. there were a lot of emotional scenes throughout the show that pulled on my heartstrings :"). i never usually cry while watching shows bec i never get emotionally invested in the characters on my first watch so that was a new experience for me.
the things i usually look for in a tv show are the small details, especially if the show was adapted from somewhere else. idk why but it sort of gives me an insight into how much the production team sought to understand the characters and how much effort they were willing to put into the show. it also gives me a few details on the characters! one thing that i noticed were the little rainbows in the outside shots, an extremely small thing for me to notice but seeing the pops of color made me so happy.
another thing that i noticed were the books that Isaac was reading. i read a few articles on the show and the major thing that people were mad about was that they cut off a major character, aled. isaac was brought as a kind of replacement for him, from my understanding. the creator wanted to use isaac as a way of branching out into newer storylines. after finishing the show, isaac really caught my eye just because he never rlly talked that much, but when he did, it was comforting and kind of gave me insight to what his character is. i guess you can say that he's my favorite character because of how much he reminds me of myself in terms of being the introverted character that nothing ever rlly happens to (reminds me of the shrinking violet trope but not rlly?? don't get mad at me lol). the small details that i noticed were the books that isaac read throughout the series. if you want to know the full list of books you can check out this link. i loved the books that he read because it sort of followed the storyline. his range was kind of wide bec i like to think that as the characters were discovering their sexualities by experience, Isaac is learning through his books. one of the books he read was gender explorers by juno roche. this book is a collection of interviews from trans children, teens, and adults, talking about their everyday experiences. i read a snippet of it online and i thought it was extremely thought-provoking. i like to think that Isaac read it to better understand elle and how to support her. another book on the list was proud by gareth thomas. gareth, nicknamed alife, was the first openly gay rugby union player for wales. i think its a cute but subtle reference to the fact that his gay bestie was playing rugby! the last book that i noticed on the list was radio silence by alice oseman, the creator of the webcomic. i saw people saying that it was a continuity error and that it was breaking the timeline which i thought was pretty funny. i think the fact that he was reading alice's book was bec the book, radio silence, is about aled. aled wasn't in the show because the author thought that aled deserved his own story.
i think this show goes in line with a lot of other shows i've been watching. sex education, young royals, and yuri on ice are great shows that i highly recommend and are kinda in the mix with this show! one thing that i do want to see is a wlw show that, for the most part, resembles the themes of shows that i mentioned. a lot of lesbian series that i've watched are vv depressing and angsty tbh and i would loovee to see a super cute, fluffy but realistic show that makes me feel how i feel while watching heartstopper!
i finished the whole series in one day and i loved every single minute. i think i might actually start reading the webcomic since i like comparing the original to the shows (that's kinda what i do with mangas). i'm excited to see season 2 and what else heartstopper has in store!!

big night for television because i not only watched my two szn faves pero i found another show to watch. here is a little rundown that no one cares to read but i wanna talk about them bc the online community is super small and there aren’t any cool bitches </3
spoilers!! //
ncis szn 18 premiere: i think it’s so mf sexy that the showrunners/writers didn’t write in about the pandemic like...it was such a relief. this is already traumatic to continue to experience but my gosh, very appreciative for those who are actually on the frontlines and just don’t want that reminder. ANYWAYS! that fucking beginning got me standing up and shrieking i was like NO WAY did gibbs try to shoot down mcgee ain’t no WAY !! i demand mf ANSWERS like how COME he is chasing that plane, why is mcgee alone, why is gibbs on the mf ROOF with a SNIPER RIFLE?? also that shit with fornell...like KINGS if this show wasn’t homophobic, those two would make a really great couple love wins <3 but also, their friendship is incredibly special and i like that aspect more than a romantic relationship between the two. they’re always getting into some shit and it’s like jaksdjslka. oh, jimmy :(( almost getting hurt :(( that’s my mans y’all why would u wanna hurt him :(( him with those rolled up sleeves though 🤤😏 bishop and torres being the duo that they are...wish to see them again. the plot was pretty okay like it wasn’t thrilling and it was kinda like oh man, this shit wild fr...solid start! can’t wait for what they cooked up for the rest of the szn. ALSO!! next week is the 400th (FOUR HUNDREDTH!!) episode and it looks so scrumptious we get young gibbs and young ducky let’s fucking GOOOOOO
fbi szn 3 premiere: okay let’s just take a moment of silence for our lost comrades kristen and special agent emily WE POUR ONE OUT FOR Y’ALL :// this shit had me on the edge of my seat bitch!! i missed this show like yeah it kinda put me in a sad mood knowing that we lost a series regular so suddenly (and i still don’t know why...there are no articles out) but this shit was culturally relevant. it did touch on the pandemic with face masks but i think some of the scenes were shot before the pandemic so there was like...some hella inconsistencies. HOWEVER! i am willing to gloss over that shit when there is some ajskdjskal shit happening on the screen. never disappointed in the writers to deliver some poignant shit like in the beginning where the dude said that all white people are racists, including him and her (her being the other character in the scene) and the way she reacted was so funny like YES BITCH YOU TOO “GOOD WHITE GIRL”. and that new character nestor? is he staying on for the rest of the season because.....🤤😏 maggie, if you ain’t claiming him i will take both him and oa in one swoop <33 ANYWAYS, that shit with oa and his informant....that shit hurted 😔 can’t believe these mfers were about to snpe his ass and for what -_- also the music never ceases to make me bounce in my seat like YEEHAW!! the maggie snippet of why she wasn’t happy about the “success” of her undercover work before coming back to the fbi....MAN, okay more shit hurt damn bitch!! also the new girl (forgot her name lol) that is scola’s (barely remembered this guy’s name lol) partner now, she so bad like she seems like a fun character we will see how she fairs. and scola, my mans....looking fine as always <33 jubal.....scrumptious and showing up that whole command center and for what! love him. fbi always has a fire season so i can’t wait to watch :)
big sky series premiere: YES, SUE ME, I WATCHED IT!! it was advertised all over twitter and my dad and i saw some ads for weeks so we were like okay, let’s give it a chance...and it is actually REALLY fucking good. predominately white cast pero whatever ig...annoying because we only have one black woman in the cast and that is IT for people of color....crickets. anyways, the plot is interesting and it may be typical: a trucker in his late 30s who still lives with his overbearing mom gets sick and tired of her snide remarks that are supposed to be “out of love” and starts kidnapping people...possibly even killing them. the twist is that, well, he has a state trooper covering for his eyes and HE LITERALLY KILLED SOMEBODY BECAUSE THE KIDNAPPER (forgot his name lol) WAS GETTING “SLOPPY”. back to the other characters, we got cassie and jennie/jenny (idk which spelling it is) who are kinda in a fight bc cassie slept with jenny’s husband who are separated but the miscommunication led jenny to get big mad when she found out cassie slept with cody (husband). now they’re gonna have to work together (they’re all private detectives/investigators) despite this to find the girlfriend of jenny’s son who went missing when she was on a roadtrip with her sister to meet with her son. ANYWAYS yeah it sounds a bit boring BUT that cliffhanger made me stand the FUCK up like AHHHHHHH!! this season looks fire and i am willing to give it a shot :) i actually thought that big sky was more about the supernatural but it’s just some white guy abducting women so what’s new
and that does it! tuesdays are for da copaganda :3c taking three hours out of my day of being a police and prison abolitionist to watch ncis, fbi, and big sky 😼 and that is like the only day besides sunday (SUNDAYS ARE FOR DA NCIS NOLA BEST NCIS) so like...i really don’t watch anything on streaming for some odd reason. like, give me a television show on the tv where i gotta wait every week for an episode with commercials and i am THERE but give me a streaming show with zero commercials and i’m like 😐 wonder if there is any content for these...don’t mind me gonna go in da tags 🤠
