15 more thoughts on season 3 of Stranger Things

I have now only seen one more episode, but I still have more thoughts.

  1. El's outfits are very fun. I just have to say that.
  2. Did we have to have three torture scenes in one episode?
  3. I have a fix for Steve's torture scene. I think it could have actually been funny if the Russians were just menacing and Steve just spilled everything he could. Then he just faint at some point. The Russians would lock Robin and Steve in a room. When he wakes up, he could tell Robin that he really toughed it out. Then the Russians could give them water or something that is laced with whatever they injected Steve and Robin with and then they could be drugged and spill their guts.
  4. I did like the conversation that El should be the one setting El's limits.
  5. Joyce and Hopper FINALLY decide they should call their children. While I'm glad they finally thought of it, but like it took days.
  6. Smug Hopper sucks.
  7. Did the show take money from the cigarette industry? We sure see a lot of product name.
  8. Is Dustin's mom still not worried?
  9. How did this apparently super well designed facility not have security cameras? They could actually confirm Steve's story.
  10. I'm still not 100% sure what the mind flayer wants.
  11. Guess we're gonna have a big scene where Mike tells El he loves her.
  12. I wonder if Billy's mom is ever going to show up again. Considering she is played by the Parker actress from Leverage, I want her to.
  13. Erica remains amazing. "What is that?" "A deadly weapon."
  14. My mom wants a few Stranger Things pop vinyls, so that is a win.
  15. Is like no one in Hawkins concerned that their loved ones walked away and like wouldn't come back?

Starting my parental journey, part 2

You can read part 1 here . Yesterday I began the next step of my parental journey. Ironically, it was starting birth control. This medicine helps prepare my ovaries for the egg retrieval process. It was weird taking the pill to prepare for my fertility journey because you typically think of the pill as ensuring you don't get pregnant. Obviously, I'm not getting pregnant now, but I am getting ready for that eventual possibility. There have also been various bureaucratic issues that I've been dealing with. Mostly insurance stuff (as I'm sure comes as no surprise). But, thanks to a new benefit at work that started 1/1/24, my journey will be (mostly) covered. While, again, there were some bureaucratic hurdles that I had to overcome in order for this to all work out, I am immensely glad that it did work out. I am nervous though. In part I'm nervous about a lot of the practicalities of this step in my journey. For instance, I will have to inject myself with various medica...

15 ways to support me on my parental journey

I posted yesterday and in August, 2023 about starting my parental journey. If you're wondering how you can support me, here are some ideas I have at the moment (though these may change and also don't feel pressured to do any of these things). Check in via text or DM so I can respond at my leisure (but please don't be insulted if I take a long time to respond) Help with arranging food for me (I know that when I get overwhelmed, I often have really awful eating habits) Offer to help with apartment chores (I may turn you down, but the offer will mean a lot) Walk Hoban (I realize only some people can do this, but the relief of lightening the responsibility of Hoban will likely be welcome) Be understanding if I have to cancel plans (I hope to still be somewhat social during this time, but I cannot guarantee how I'm going to feel) Drive me to appointments (I have the retrieval itself covered, but I have other appointments that will happen leading up to it so if you have the...
