  1. Finished season 3 of The Magnus Archives 

    This show is SO GOOD (says I about a show that constantly pulls at all the heartstrings ) 

    I especially loved the Gerry Keay episode, I'm going as him to comic con!!!

    I have finals and it's itching at me that I have to study before listening more 

    cri

    (Itching huh? Maybe I should be wary of The Corruption?)

  2. Elffff I started Malevolent, and I’m not far at all but I already love it and you’re right I ship them so hard. 

    1. Elf

      Elf

      Whooohoo!! Welcome to the malevolent family  

      I mainly listened to it in the gym and to and fro on my one hour (one hour there and one hour back 😭) commute to college (well, 11th grade, but it's known as junior college here) made both those endeavours way more fun

      You have to let me know when you reach the episode with Kayne. 

      No spoilers but please I need to know your reaction to him lol

  3. Okayy another TMA one 

    Spoiler

    Before i truly got into it, i thought it was like a found family thing? Like that's what most of the fandom presents it as 

    But these people genuinely like hate each other?? Except for jon and martin?? 

    I was just waiting for the reconciliations and apologies and all and i realise that's probably not happening?? 

    No hate though, love the realism. 

     

  4. OH MY GOD MAG.80????? 

    AHAHAHSJAHAHA

    And now listening to Jon's past is Mag.81- a guest for mr spider is pulling at all the heart strings 

    I'm getting quickly obsessed with this podcast and might frequent the Shard more just to be able talk to others who've been caught in this web 

    1. Edema Rue

      Edema Rue

      Oh I am completely caught up in its web. So is @Wittles, but he’s gone for now.

  5. Hiiii Edema (Also you just lost the game again)
  6. Okay, first of all I was doing not so hot for a while there but things are admittedly better now. I'm able to cope 

    But guess who was finally able to get into audio dramas! I listened to I am In Eskew, Malevolent

    And now I'm on episode 64 of....you guessed it! 

    The Magnus Archives 

    Took a little long to get here, but im here! 

    Jonathan Sims my beloved (the character, obviously)

    And also, the thing that calls itself Micheal. Why do I love this absolutely unhinged creature again?

    1. Edema Rue

      Edema Rue

      Ooh, are I am In Eskew and Malevolent good? I need something to listen to since the Magnus protocol is on hiatus until April 11th…

      ALSO YES MICHEAL IS WONDERFUL!!!!

    2. Elf

      Elf

      Oh they are very good! I didn't think I'd ever be the type of person to listen to audio dramas but these two certainly hooked me 

      Fair warning for I Am in Eskew, it is pretty depressing and doesn't really have any happy resolution. It's a story that explores grief, alienation, mental illness, hostile architecture and so on

      And it is absolutely more terrifying than the The Magnus Archives and Malevolent and there's very few happy moments.

      But if you're looking for something new to listen to, I would suggest Malevolent a HUNDRED TIMES OVER!!! 

      It's set in Lovecraft's Cthulu Mythos, without the racism and misogyny. 

      It's about a 1930's private detective who wakes up blind, with an entity in his head and his partner dead next to him. He must unravel the circumstances surrounding what happened to him and look for a way to seperate him and the entity in his head. 

      No spoilers, but you will ship him with the entity. 

      And there's a character who's surprisingly like Micheal and always covered in blood. 

      Please listen to it, you will not regret. At least I hope not

      Oooo ok!! I will!!

  7. I I thoughts things were getting better. And they were. Things were going so so good. And then it all started going so bad, so fast. Living in this house, with this family i...I've been fighting my whole life. Surviving my whole life. It was the one thing I was proud of in myself. That I survived. But I had the biggest panic attack I've ever had tonight and I feel a little like I've been pushed past my breaking point. And i have finals coming up in a little less than a month and I am so so behind. Even if I didn't know where I was going or what I was doing, I've always got up. Always headed on. Always kept going. These days I dont want to even get out bed. My heart literally hurts. I've never, ever felt safe in this house. Not once in all my 17 years. Right now all that is keeping me going is the dream of my own house. No matter how small or dingy. Just somewhere i can feel safe. And not so lonely.
  8. So...I'm applying to the New York Film Academy next year. As part of the admission requirements, I've got to make a 10 minute short film as part of my portfolio. After I finish the script, will any of you be willing to review it? I trust you guys to give me constructive criticism on pacing, structure, and whether it would be feasible to shoot for a bunch of students or not. 

    Thanks :D

  9. Dude...If the birthday in your bio is real, we were born on the same day?? November 30th?

  13. Hi guys! 

    Seems i only communicate through status updates now. 

    If I may update- I am really really happy with my life right now and the person I am becoming. I have good irl friends who i am very grateful for, 

    I've been eating healthy and regularly and i even joined a gym! I have also been getting 8-9 hours of sleep per night. I've been journaling as regularly as I can and reading upwards of 1 or 2 books a week and watching an average of 2 movies a week. Which is great because it means I dont spend my energy in negative stuff anymore. I mean its hard but im trying and i seem to be mostly succeeding.

    Plus, my grades are...you know what they are average and that is perfectly fine because they are still better than what they used to be and i can see the fruits of my efforts. 

    I feel very happy. Because I'm learning and growing everyday. I'm learning how to deal with the bad times in a healthy way and to be kind to myself. I have a better relationship with myself and my parents. 

    I am proud of myself and the direction my life is going in and I just know I couldnt have done it without you guys. 

    Much love to all of you 💞
