Also (because I'm Currently Rewatching It):

Also (because I'm currently rewatching it):

- Old gay people. A-bit-past-middle-aged men that are a normal couple (well, as normal as a couple gets in this show) and also gay.

- The idea of "What if everyone was assigned a prophecy when they were born?" is explored

- Sprinkled with references to myths that you feel very proud if you understand

- Drama, murder, mystery, love, epic quests, betrayal, and more

- Family blood ties are less significant than your ties with those you choose to tie yourself to (chosen family > biological family, but someone can be both your chosen and biological family)

- The Amazons are in it (and much like the rest of the characters, they don't all look like tall, hot supermodels; they look like normal people, of which some are tall, hot supermodels)

- Yes, it does end on a cliffhanger, due to the fact that there was supposed to be a second season, but I personally think it is entirely worth watching regardless

- So much more that I can't say without spoiling parts

But do be aware that as a show involving Greek mythology, it does get bloody— someone else recommended checking Does The Dog Die? (doesthedogdie.com) if you have specific triggers you wish to avoid. I support this, though know that there will obviously be spoilers.

Why you should watch KAOS (2024) on Neftlix:

- Jeff Goldblum as Zeus

- A disabled actors play a disabled characters (Mat Fraser & another secret one [because spoilers])

- A trans actor plays a trans character (I won't say which one since it's kind of a spoiler)

- Set in modern times, uses characters from old myths but isn't a simple retelling; it's a whole new story

- All your favs are there (Prometheus, Daedalus, Persephone, Dionysus, Cassandra, Medusa, Charon, Ariadne, the Fates, the Furies, just to name a few)

- Speaking of Persephone, she and Hades are actually in love (the version of the myth which I know much of you love)

- Gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss Hera (as in, she literally does all those things)

- The gods' actors' ages actually make sense, they didn't cast solely young people or make young people look older; you've got Zeus (72), Hera (63), Hades (61), Persephone (56), Poseidon (56), Dionysus (27), you get the idea

- Killer soundtrack

- Actual realistic queer characters/representation in a natural, unforced way

- Enjoyable story and comedic but also has depth (I binge-watched it in a day)

- Not a huge commitment (8 episodes of about 50 minutes each)

- Have you ever thought "What would the Ancient Greek gods be doing in modern times?" This show answers that question!

- It wasn't renewed for a second season due to viewership, so if the views explode, maybe they'll renew it and I can find out what happens next (I know it's not likely, but I can dream; besides, if just one person watches and enjoys it, then this post will have been worth it)

Patton. "I wonder what's in that closet. Nope, don't even check."

Remus. "I'll check. What if I open this and a thousand rattlesnakes jump out?"

Patton. "Then I'm gonna run."

Remus. "Alright. Let's boogie, boys!" (Opens closet.) "It's a mattress. And dirt."

(Later)

Patton. "What's in this one?"

Remus. "This is fun, because now you have to open this door, because I opened that one. What if you pick the wrong one and there's like a, a clown with a decaying face in there?"

Patton. (Mocking) "'What if you pick the wrong one and there's a fucking clown with a decaying face in there?'"

Logan. "Open the door. Stop joking."

Patton. (Pause) "What if— Okay, I'm running, just letting you know."

Right now there's a #FandersDisabilityPositivity on Twitter, and there isn't one here, but I figured, why not, here's some things about me (aka here's what I've been professionally diagnosed with so far):

- ADHD (I think this is why I'm so bad at tone regulation online?? If I sound mean I promise I don't mean to I'm just bad at getting my tone across through text)

- OCD (So I'm very familiar with intrusive thoughts lol)

- Anxiety

- Depression

- Asthma

(Also just I joke about serious things or when I'm uncomfortable sometimes as a coping mechanism, so if I do, it's not because I don't take it seriously, it's because I take it too seriously)

Anyway! If you can't tell, my current hyperfixation is Sander Sides, and this account is so good for that because I get to share my thoughts and people actually want to hear them??? Wild

A random google document:

I was thinking about Sapnap's name and how it used to be Pandas and was supposed to be Pandas backwards

Anyway

I was like 'it's not really Pandas though... what would Pandas backwards be?' and I realized that Pandas backwards is Sadnap

Which, like

Yeah I can see why he didn't chose Sadnap as his name

Also, to be more lighthearted—

Roman/Remus: Please convince Thomas to do a Minecraft letsplay series sometime. Also please ask Patton why he asked what a ship was/to show you some of that 'neato artwork and writing.'

Janus: Only answer the ones you're comfortable with: How many arms can you have? (Like is six the max?) Are your scales only on your face? Do the gloves serve a purpose other than a fashion statement/symbolism? Where did you get your hat?

Patton: Please, please, please tell the other sides about ships (if you haven't). It would be funny!

Logan: Please teach me more about psychology. If you don't have time then please just tell me what books/texts you have so I can read them.

Virgil: (I'd swap playlists with him. His taste in music seems close to mine. I'd also ask what other Disney movies he recommends because I watched The Black Cauldron and loved it.)

Nobody Asked, But If I Could Say One Thing To Each Of The Sides, They'd Be:

Roman: We appreciate you. Not everything you make has to be the work of Adam (Driver). It's okay to mess up. You aren't just Thomas's hero; you're the hero of a lot of fans too.

Orange: TBD. (Right now, 'Come out, come out, wherever you are!')

Janus: Thank you. Also, I think your name is awesome.

Remus: You aren't evil. You're just as important as the other sides.

Patton: It's okay to say 'I don't know.' You aren't supposed to have all the answers. You aren't letting anyone down.

Logan: I listen when you're talking, and I learn from you, and I know a lot of other fans do. You can show your emotions, we know you have them. We'll always take you seriously.

Virgil: We love you. You've never been the villain— you've always been looking out for Thomas's safety.

(I know some of them aren't really 'one thing' shh)

(I know Remus is as important as everyone else because @thatsthat24 doesn't make one-dimensional sides. All the sides are like onions: they have several layers and once they're revealed you usually start crying)

I stayed hydrated, but at the cost of my raw wooden floor (luckily it's just water and I caught the glass so it didn't break)

a huge water stain on my wood floor that looks very bad, the water itself has been dried up

I started getting a ton of notifications from Tumblr and was like 'haha this must be a glitch' and then I clicked on one and. Neil Gaiman reblogged this. That's why I was getting so many notifications.

I don't know how he found this but sir you have made my day and I appreciate you and your storytelling very much

Broke: Good Omens isn't a gay love story because Crowley and Aziraphale aren't in love

Woke: Good Omens is a gay love story because Crowley and Aziraphale are in love

Bespoke: Whether Good Omens is a gay love story or not is debatable; it is, however, undeniably a story of the love between Crowley and Aziraphale (whatever type of love that may be)

Neil Gaiman: Good Omens isn't a gay love story because while Crowley and Aziraphale are in love, they are not human males, they are an angel and a demon
