I just finished watching A Man on the Inside which was a delightful show, had lots of emotional moments and was so genuinely funny that I was actually giggling and barking out laughs.
I swear Michael Schur made this show just so Ted Dansen could be a cutie patootie.
But one thing I haven't seen a lot of discussion on is how Charles, Ted Dansen's character, is very clearly autistic coded. And very much gives off undiagnosed autistic dad energy.
Minor spoilers for episode 1
He's widower and a retired engineering professor, his relationship with his daughter is strained because his late wife was the emotional glue, and he was never really great at communicating with his child but he loves her and snips out newspaper articles to send her in the mail. Though she can't seem to have any meaningful conversations with him, her husband says he's the one to call if you need to know the fastest route somewhere. He's hesitant to break out of his daily routine.
He's full of fun facts.
When entering a cafeteria to grab breakfast to find there was nowhere to sit he says "I'm not much of a breakfast guy" and leaves.
There's a bunch of other things that kinda flagged it but those are some of the ones that really stuck out to me.
Anyways, the show is honestly fantastic, and I highly recommend it.

This scene lives in my head rent free ❤️🌵
Michael, good news. I was able to obtain Eleanor Shellstrop’s file. Is it actually a cactus? I don’t understand. I want to see the file for Eleanor Shellstrop. Is that what you have, or do you have a cactus? I have the file. You’re sure? You have the file, and not a cactus? That is correct. I have Eleanor Shellstrop’s file, I do not have a cactus. Excellent! Please give me the file. Here you go. {Janet hands Michael a cactus.} Thank you, Janet.

Reblogging "fuck purity culture I want a couple that wants to eviscerate each other." style posts and putting "Sam and Diane <3" in the tags
Doing immeasurable psychic damage to Tumblr users who have a weird superiority complex about loving toxic couples who hate each other by telling them that I think they would just LOVE Cheers.

bill hader on ted dansens podcast (that im accidentally watching on the conan youtube because i thought it was just a clip not the whole thing) just referenced a joke made by will forte at seth meyer’s wedding that seth and his wifes baby would inevitably grow up to be a homosexual. felt like a lot of names and words that would mean a lot to you on a deep level …
😱 okay now this is interesting… I am sort of fascinated with Forte in all of this bc in one interview he did with Seth he talked about how Seth after TWO YEARS (this is it’s own conversation…) Seth had not said “I love you” to Alexi and Will did this big fake pronouncement of love to her sister (something like “if you feel it, you gotta say it…”) to try and send a message to him… and then years later did this same thing with marriage. comedy yaoi scholars have already speculated on that quite a bit but this makes it even more interesting… there’s also the “passionate moment” they shared during day drinking, which, make of what you will I guess…
Anyway this is very fascinating and you are right those are a lot of words and names that mean a lot to me on a deep level 🙏 I will listen to this soon to see if I have any more thoughts on it
#I also love how much explanation you gave to why ur listening to Ted damsons podcast LOL. truthfully yes I would’ve been like Oh alright#sure why not I guess… whatever floats ur boat…..🤷♀️

sickness log day 1 billion. I feel as if this is my new normal. Can’t even really feel “bad” anymore because this is just what it’s like. Tried to sing yesterday to see where that was. I liked the experience but it was a bad idea. I’ve reached season two of arcane and it’s loud and depressing. Yesterday I binged all of that new Ted Dansen show, Man on the Inside. I cried a lot. I think there are some things that I need to process. Maybe I’ll watch the good place finale and cry some more. Symptoms include: slight congestion, fever, mucus in the throat, and a really annoying cough. I’m behind in all my classes, and I still need to have a meeting with my school counselor because I just don’t have a second semester schedule. For some reason. I hate this.

So I've gotten to the beginning of season 3 and my take from the way things went with the judge's test is that Eleanor succeeded because she actually needed to learn about ethics and the lessons were all catered to her, and she understood what her problem was and why she was like that, but no one else did.
Tahani mostly acts like a decent person but she got sent to the Bad Place because her motives were selfish. Although she knows she's like that because of her family treating her like garbage, she didn't really need to be taught the same kind of lessons about how to treat people with basic respect and common decency like Eleanor did. We saw in her relationship with Jason that she needed to improve on her classist elitism, because even when she liked him she still thought he was inferior and treated him that way. But lessons like the Trolly problem or questions about whether it's ever ethical to lie don't really do anything to address her bigotry.
With Chidi, it's not yet been explained why he has a problem with indecision and I don't know if it's something that ever will be explained. If it were me, I'd probably have made it his backstory that he was very harshly criticized as a child and that gave him a paralyzing fear of making mistakes or being judged. Or maybe he went through some religious trauma, so he's always been afraid of going to the Bad Place and that's why he's been obsessed with moral ethics his entire life. So, like Tahani, even though he strives to be good, his motives are ultimately selfish. He isn't good simply because it's in his nature, but due to feelings of guilt and fear. Reading and teaching ethics isn't really doing anything to help him because his problem is that he's looking for a singular correct answer to "How should I behave?" that can be easily, rigidly adhered to once you know it. What he needs to do is listen to Eleanor and Ted Dansen and get out of his own head, focus on helping other people instead of obsessing over his own Moral Purity, and unlearn that moral absolutist Purity Culture mindset and adopt a new mindset that allows for situational flexibility and forgiveness for both himself and others.
With Jason, his main problem is just that he's a complete airhead. I'm not even really sure what progress he's actually supposed to have made. He wasn't really a mean person to begin with, even if he was a criminal. He got Janet and Tahani to fall for him because he genuinely treats them well, it's not like he started off as a chauvinistic playboy who learns to be more considerate and respectful toward women. He does bad things that hurt people, even if it's not malicious, so he's not unlike Chidi with his chronic indecision in that regard. But Jason is just so damn stupid he can't even really comprehend when he's been placed in a moral dilemma, let alone any of Chidi's lessons or how they might apply to that situation. I don't know how he's supposed to learn why he needs to change his behavior when, as Eleanor puts it, he only seems about 20% aware of what's going on. That man needs a few more IQ points before anyone should be trying to talk to him about the Trolley Problem.

tag someone you want to get to know better
🧡Very honored and loved to be tagged by @iri-vail and @incarnadinedreams 🧡
Favorite color/s: In nature; orange. In clothing and personal style; purple. In general or for the vibes; red. Color combo; orange and purple, followed close second of purple and red.
Last song: Punching Bag by Set it Off is so catchy I have been listening to it alot. 🎶So say goodbye / to your mister nice guy / you got your wish / he's rotting in hell🎵
Last movie: The second spiderverse movie. It was too fast for me, but it seemed cool. Good vibes. I do enjoy animation and stylized cg over live action, so I am glad these movies are doing so well, but I think this is it for me on watching any more.
Currently watching: Just finished binge watching The Good Place. An extremely solid show. Well rounded, funny, great acting. Cathartic ending. Cried about it a lot thinking of the message it's trying to convey. Eleanor and Michael were my favorites, but that's no surprise that I like the Arizona trashbag and the fire squid demon in a Ted Dansen suit.
Currently reading: Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, by Pu Songling. And as always, Modao Zushi every time I have to check something for my donghua rewatch. And slowly catching up with The road to reunion by Onomatopoetikon (prequel movie xmen ff)
Currently working on: Still in the process of my Extensive Note Taking rewatch of the Founder of Diabolism (mdzs) donghua. I am mostly done with notes up to s2, but I binged s3 again because I wanted to write instead of take notes (WIP doc available on the CX Heaven discord). s3 continues to make me so angry I am not sure how I'll convince myself to do the full note taking. Comparing each episode to relevant novel sections is also emotionally taxing, in the sheer damage that the donghua does to the Twin Heroes relationship... so! This will be a while... but this an underlying project for my fem-mxy!wwx fic which ... may... take the place of "mainfic" for ever getting published? Jury is still out on that.
Current obsession: MDZS themed brainrot continues to make a marshy bog of my psyche. Chengxian, Twin Heroes, and Jiang Cheng in that order, but surprisingly I seem to be writing and thinking more about WWX in all my WIPs and I just noticed? Predominately, I have been writing these stories from his perspective 😅 Zoids au, naga!jc au, majority of fem!mxy au, jc wolfcurse post-canon, White Hair Wuxian smutty oneshot... Maybe it's just easier to write him because the novel is a baseline but also I think I understand and respect his multiverse shidivision.
As always, ignore me if you already did this and no worries if you're not up for sharing 😘 Tagging @ohmybookshelves @fanfictiongreenirises @sonik-kun @limonath @thestarlitrose @elliekayy @ruthlesscalculuss @miss-fiery @sailuncharted

Remembering when a girl once told me her favorite show was this old niche sitcom that no one has ever heard of and I was like 'oo we're gonna get some deep cuts here 👀' and then she was like "yeah it's called Frasier" and I was like "oh. 😐 yeah, i know Frasier." And she got so excited and so surprised like "no one has ever known what I'm talking about!" literally bouncing physically from her excitement and I was just sitting there like, "you just named possibly THE most popular sitcom spinoff in the history of sitcom spinoffs, you named a show that was inspired by a show that launched the career of Ted Dansen, you named a show with eleven seasons and at least 24 episodes a season, you named a show that literally has a wikipedia dedicated to the amount of awards it was nominated for, you literally named a show that stars Kelsey fucking Grammer, the fact that everyone you have ever met doesn't know what Frasier is has been an outlier in the data 😭"
#ignore me#im just remembering how i was all like 'oo new niche to explore 👀👀'#and then she was like 'its frasier' and i felt the excitement inside of me literally deflate like a baloon#i was literally like 'oh 😐' in real life 😭😭
