Tis’ the season! I made an ides of march cake complete with 22 chocolate knives and one real, very stabby knife. While the knives are shittily constructed, I think the point still comes across. The cake itself is double chocolate, making use of a Swiss meringue buttercream.

in retrospect i'm enjoying imagining the brainstorming meeting where they were like "our userbase is full of introverted, nervous, and annoying people doing parallel play, they all love bothering each other, but they also don't want to be overly familiar with strangers, let alone the people they've been hanging out with for literal years, how do we add enrichment to that antisocial social enclosure" and the correct answer was to let us socialize like a feral cat colony and nonverbally and impersonally yet lovingly smack each other lol

"Would Mulder and Scully solve [insert mystery from a non X-Files piece of media here]" is a deceptively complex question because there are two different answers depending on which version of the show our hypothetical episode is part of.

In the one version, Mulder and Scully wildly misunderstand the nature of the problem in diametrically opposite ways, and eventually succeed in removing the immediate threat in spite of having no idea what's going on, but do so in a way that traumatises everyone involved and ultimately reinforces the status quo, because law enforcement agencies are institutionally incapable of solving real problems even when their individual agents act with the best of intentions.

In the other version, Mulder pulls the correct solution out of his ass in the first five minutes, but can't prove it because the evidence keeps getting Phineas and Ferbed the moment before Scully walks into the room, and the problem is fixed forever by shooting a sewer man with a gun.

The trouble, of course, is that these are both describing the same show.
