Oh yes, all very domestic.

How exciting. [ Nauseating. ]

Going to do the picket fence and child to top it all off?

[poreiavian]

Child will need to wait. Maybe until season 3 or 4. I have an entire plan built out for every season. If it works out I should be able to keep going well into 150 episodes.

[craftpunk]

I don't know whether to be scared or impressed.

[poreiavian]

Is there a reason to fear me? I know I am a powerful girl but sitcoms are harmless fun.

[craftpunk]

It takes a certain mentality to favor the canned lifestyle and soulless devotion to the 50s aesthetic to be THAT into sitcoms.

[poreiavian]

I disagree. Sitcoms are a window into the life people wish to have. The perfect family, difficult problems solved in less than an hour, a laugh track for every joke and audience applause for every entrance. It's the purest expression of human desires.

[craftpunk]

And yet it's just another blue pill. Nothing like that is real.

[poreiavian]

What is fake today can become real tomorrow. Anything can change.

[craftpunk]

Families aren't really like that. Human beings are involved. You'd have to change our very nature to make that a reality.

[poreiavian]

And the world would be a happier place for it. All in theory of course.

[craftpunk]

I think you'd be surprised how...miserable that kind of fantasy would be. The real world is far better.

[poreiavian]

The real world is overrated. And fantasies are only miserable if you choose them to be.

[craftpunk]

That right there is the difference between the red and the blue pill, by the way.

Enjoy your fantasies, I guess.

[poreiavian]

Yeah well, fuck your red pill. I'm going to blue pill it so hard, the red pill will just stop existing. That's my choice.

[craftpunk]

Wow.

If only we all had your clarity of thought.
