This was an interesting conversation, but I'm still not sure I understand what it means to be a Satanist. It seems that I align completely with what you describe as non-theistic Satanists, but I just consider myself a left-wing atheist. What's the difference between that and a Satanist?

Why is withholding the vote better than voting against?

What if it's the police who's breaking in and murdering you? (As it's happened in real life multiple times)

Good call. My plan is to start watching S1 again a few weeks before season 2 is done.

Succession season 1. The writing is pretty good, the characters are unhinged.

I'm desperate to watch it, but I'm going to wait till all the episodes are out. I would not be able to deal with the slow drip.

Valley Heat. Great writing, hilarious.

I have no good suggestions, just wanted to say I feel the same way as you do. I want to believe the human quality of life on average is better than it's ever been, but if I look at unfiltered media it's all doom and gloom. I've now completely stopped watching/reading news because of what it does to my mental health. Even then I still end up finding out about things.

This was a great read! Thanks for sharing.

I'm going to be so mad if this show ends up being another Lost. They keep introducing more and more "mysteries", and not really solving or explaining anything.

 

I've tried watching this show for a long time, and even though I really liked it, for some reason or another the furthest I got to after restarting it a couple of times was season 4.

This time, I started watching it again with my partner and discovered a whole new appreciation for it. Since I already knew the story, I was able to focus more on the characters and some other details.

The writing really is remarkable, everything is well thought out. With most shows, I get to a point where I lose the immersion because of sloppy writing, but with BCS, I found myself fully immersed in the story and emotionally invested in the characters. There is always a plausible explanation for what happens on the screen.

The ending was brilliant. That last scene where the camera pans in front of the corner of the building until you can't see Jimmy's face anymore had a big impact on me. It felt like melancholic acceptance? Or at least that's what I think Jimmy was feeling, and that mood stayed with me hours after the episode ended.

I thought BrBa was amazing, but BCS surpassed it.
