LOL this is worse for him than losing the election tbh. I hate getting banned so I can empathize with Trump here The president is βballistic,β a senior administration official said after Twitter permanently took down his account, citing the possibility that it would be used in the final 12 days of Trumpβs presidency to incite violence. The official said Trump was βscrambling to figure out what his options are.β
So too was much of the political universe, which has become bleary-eyed obsessive about Twitter these past four years as Trump used the medium to fire advisers, sink legislative initiatives, encourage social duress and, lastly, praise the scores of MAGA faithful, just days after hundreds of them violently ransacked the Capitol.
In a statement issued by the White House, Trump said heβd been βnegotiating with various other sitesβ while βwe also look at the possibilities of building out our own platform in the near future.β But aides did not reveal what plans were in the works. When Trumpβs eldest son, Don Jr. offered up a URL to those hoping to keep tabs of his fatherβs whereabouts, it was a site that had been purchased in 2009 and, in recent years, a place where his books were sold. https://www.politico.com/news/2021/01/08/trump-reacts-to-twitter-ban-456785

The first season was mainly worldbuilding and character development. In season 2, the creators were free to do a lot more because they already established their setting and how each character relates to each other.
I'm just glad they followed up on the plots and characters from season 1 while still developing new ones. In particular, it was amazing to see Victoria Van Gale reappear. The entirety of episode 5 had me crying by the end honestly. I relate a lot to Hilda, and to see VVG there was just devastating. Victoria has always been a darker, "what-if" version of Hilda if she were to grow up and lack the ability to control herself and hold herself back from making bad decisions.
Victoria and Hilda both have a passion for ingenuity and progression. They both want to help out people without thinking of the consequences. They have the same curiosity and desire to explore the unexplored. They both crave adventure.
But Hilda usually sees that her actions hurt people, and fixes her mistakes. Victoria is what Hilda could turn into, easily, if she doesn't recognize when to stop. That's what makes VVG such a good foil to Hilda, and why she's one of the best antagonists on the show.
But speaking of that, the true antagonist of the show is actually Hilda's mom. She's the one who directly stands in the way of Hilda (for good reason) and I just love that season 2 explored this critical plot fixture. Hilda wants to share her awesome, crazy world with her friends and family. But it's a dangerous world, and she knows that. She thinks she has it under control, though. The fact of the matter is, Hilda is selfish. She wants to do these dangerous things even though it makes people worry about her and oftentimes can put them in actual danger.
But at the same time, Hilda is bringing these amazing experiences to her loved ones, and they usually actually enjoy them. It's an interesting source of tension, and the conflict between those two characters drives the entire show IMO.
I also just adore the new Safety Patrol characters. Erik Alhberg is such a great addition to the show. I'm almost certain that Zapp Brannigan was the inspiration for Erik's character. They share so many traits - the unearned self-importance, delusions of grandeur, and a flair for the dramatic. The biggest difference is that Erik is a bit more self-aware than Zapp and much less insecure.
I'm just glad that Gerda, his deputy, didn't end up taking the role of Kif lol. When she realized her boss was an asshole at the end I was so happy. Those two characters really boosted the show in my opinion.
But anyway, I'm glad to see another Hilda fan on this site! It's really such a good show, and really underrated.

I feel that. I've just had a pretty bad day today. I wish you could be able to use discord because it's easier for me to have a convo there. I don't like everyone being able to see what I'm saying if you get me. I can't talk as candidly as normal here.

God, that's awful, about the woman you saw. I won't say I can even relate to that, because I can't. That's like something you see in the movies. It makes me feel so privileged to hear this. Here's me, watching all this media, trying to goad myself into being thrilled/scared. Here's me, when that's not enough - using drugs to make that thrill more real. And it's not just the thrill - it's just that on my drug, everything is BIGGER. If you'd normally see something that would make you sad, it's heartbreaking and devastating on my drug. If you'd normally be enthralled by a storyline, you're addicted and engrossed and immersed to it on my drug. When something is good, it's SO good. When something is wrong, it feels like the world is ending. And that's all self-imposed. I feel like a spoiled loser when I read posts like yours. It doesn't matter that I grew up in poverty, with an abusive stepfather and a deranged mother. I had a home. I had a roof. I had so many opportunities to help others in real life, and didn't. I used media and escapism to rectify myself. Online, I built communities, helped people, saved people. But no matter how much empathy I have for others, I always glorify myself first. I recognize that, and it really makes me sick sometimes. It's a coping device, because if I don't believe in myself no one will. I need to build myself up, I need to build my image up. I don't have delusions of grandeur - I know that I'm nothing special. But I need to convince myself and others around me otherwise. I want to do more than just live. I don't wrestle with fears all the time. Normally I'm just trying to entertain myself and distract myself from the realities that face me. I'm in such a good position but I still feel like nothing. You haven't let me down. You're a much better person than I am. Your struggles have made you resilient, and even if they make you go a little crazy, as long as you have a foot in reality then I think you're fine. I care a lot about you, and I care a lot about everyone I've talked to. I started as a Walter White type of person - manipulative, telling people bullshit to get what I want. Telling people lie after lie so I could chase the thrill of what made me happy. And only caring about myself. Right now I'm more of a Hilda type of person - reckless to a fault, self-assured, selfish, and empathetic. I want to let people in on my amazing, dangerous world, I want to share it everyone. I feel like I have it all under control. Sometimes I slip up, but it's not out of malice. I fix my mistakes. I own up to my faults. I have the soul of an adventurer, and I want to see and experience more than what I have right now. But that's not always possible. That can hurt others. I know it can, and yet I do it anyway because I think that I have what it takes. And maybe I do. I eventually want to be a Dale Cooper type of person - a selfless, non-judgmental hero. A person who always talks straight to people, and can get away with it because there's nothing but pure love in their heart. I want to be the kind of person that others can rely on, that others can trust, and that others can genuinely like. Day to day life takes a lot out of me, but I'm seriously trying to be the best person that I can be in this fucked up world. I try to see the best in people, but I also have to be reasonable and pragmatic. I never want to give up on anyone. Everyone, always, can change and be redeemed. I love you, whoever you are. I hope you find what you're looking for with this board. I'm here if you ever need to talk to me. I can't always guarantee a speedy response, but I won't ever leave you hanging.

You've been through a lot. Much more than I've been through.Your experiences are my fears, honestly. I just want to be safe, liked, and entertained. My biggest fear is being kidnapped and put into a cell for some sex slave dungeon for the rest of my life, where I haven't made enough connections beforehand to make people remember me or try to save me. If I don't make those connections now, if I don't make myself significant now, then I'll be just another sack of meat rotting away somewhere.
Human connections are all that matter in this world. I've used drugs to foster an ambiance of goodwill and humanity to everyone I've met. I don't do them that often these days. They were just training wheels, and now I'm good on my own.
All of this to say - people aren't just what you think of them. People will always surprise you, and they can change in miraculous ways.

Bryan Cranston stars as a New Orleans judge who is forced to confront his own deepest convictions when his son is involved in a hit and run that embroils an organized crime family. As a storm of vengeance, lies and deceit threatens to engulf the entire city, Michael Desiato faces a series of increasingly impossible choices and discovers just how far an honest man will go to save his sonβs life. This show is amazing. It differentiates itself from Breaking Bad because Michael is actually a good person. You can empathize with him and relate to him. And he's not some criminal mastermind, either - his slip-ups are realistic and make sense. The tone of the show is super grimdark which I'm not a fan of (could use some comic relief) but other than that I'm seeing no flaws. Only two episodes are out - I highly suggest you watch it!

I mean, that's fair. But look at my Hanukkah thread. I'm progressing my life, even with the occasional delve into DXM. I haven't touched hard drugs at all and have no reason to (my bf would kill me if I did anyway lol) so yeah. I'm not really the person you think I am. I'm sorry you've had such a hard life, sincerely. I wish that I could've helped you.

I'm still alive and thriving lol, does that make you mad
Afraid I don't have the emotional responses to get mad unless my life is in danger. Na, you're just like anybody else. You're doing your thing. However insufferable you might come across as on the net, as long as you're not hurting anybody in life, and you're relatively content, then why would I have beef with that?
Wow. Much more of a respectable, responsible response than I expected. Thank you for that. Unironically my day is a bit brighter thanks to this. I won't apologize for being "insufferable" (another word for being unique) but yeah I'm not hurting anyone; just leading an alternative life. Not many people recognize that.
