Total bummer but not gonna be able to make the show. DM if you want them.

Old slobs know!

I work for a local restaurant chain that, last summer, opened its third location. They also, as the title says, recently got the option for health insurance if you work 35+ hours a week. I’m not eligible because I split time between locations, but I also don’t need it because I thankfully have two years left on my parents’.

My pay stub at the two locations began saying Paid Leave Earned and at this point I have around 50 hours between the two. I’ve heard from coworkers that have asked about it that they’ve been told ‘It’s one of those things that’s there but it’s not really there.’

I don’t love that answer because a few years ago this business had a HUGE back-pay ordeal after negotiating

This season they’ve really emphasized the psychedelic/strange aspect of Darius’ personality, such as his obsession with the vibes & belief that time doesn’t exist in Alligator Man, or even early in this ep when he talks about his two-regret limit. It’s served as a way to detach him; he can make jokes that others can’t because he’s far away from everyone, in a sense.

But what happens after last night? Do you think his whole shtick gets turned down a little? I have a hard time believing our boy isn’t a little more grounded after what he’s seen.

Dropped a classic Chief ‘Greetings!’ Honestly was waiting to hear gumshoe right after it. It’s overkill to say it at this point but this guy is the future.

Darlene was torrenting the 1997 film Shazaam. The torrent also included the name Sinbad. For those familiar with the Mandela Effect this should be of note. Combined with the naming of Project Berenstain, the shot of the collider from 301, as well as the tour-guide’s bit of dialogue about alternate timelines, I think Sam is absolutely suggesting that there will be something about timeline-shifting.

Project Berenstain has to do with switching timelines. Hence the CERN-style collider (a popular scapegoat in this theory) tunnel from the opening sequence, the bit of dialogue about alternate timelines in the power-plant, Angela’s belief in their ability to reset things and also her hesitance to share the idea.

The bit of dialogue is the only concrete evidence; the real connector here is the title of the FBI Project. Explaining it here will only garner argument and so I won’t try to make a claim in any direction re: belief in the Stain/Stein theory. But the theory is wildly popular on the internet, this site included, and Sam has always appeared to have his ear to the ground.

I’m not one

If anyone that sees this has a rip of the ep but doesn't know what to do with it, I'll pay for an invite to the torrent site that I'm a part of. Might be a little safer for you than trying to upload to a sketchy torrent site.
