My partner's complaint was "house key" which he didn't have. Because he's from a small enough town in the US that no one locked their doors then. Even in the 2000s. maybe up to 2010 or so.

I was doing a rewatch of S1 of Stranger Things and I also saw clearly the "younger generations will find this level of no supervision unbelievable" but it is exactly how much supervision anyone got at that time.

I made the same amount of potatoes for 2 people.

I'm excited for the leftovers :)

While this looks like a knock-off The Abyss, I'm in! Going to try to resume horrorwatch this weekend after about a 6 month break due to a never-ending cross-country move.

I have no consistent way to name characters. Either it just comes to me, or I have to search. I use all tools at my disposal to find the right one. Sometimes that means asking dear writer friends on their opinions, especially if they've read the character before.

Rosa's name has always been some variation on Rose and Marq's name has always been Marq. (yes, since the beginning/earliest iteration of this story)

Corey's name changed several versions (and a couple of decades) ago, but it was just that I didn't like the first name I had. I think I knew too many people with that name.

Cella's name had several versions and I ended up pulling from a baby name website just browsing until I found one that worked.
