WIP: Tales From The Marigold Mining Corporation

A character running into something invisible or hard to see, like a glass wall.

Un-fun fact, I worked for a car dealership that the entire front of the dealership was glass. In real life this is scary as hell. So, funny in fiction, not so funny in real life (until you confirm they're okay)

Putting a random humorous detail or anecdote in a footnote. That little bit of time looking down the page is just perfect comedic timing every time.

I have one but no clue what it is. Found it at a thrift shop several years ago.

Holy shit this is terrible. Though it feels like their dropping the puck so badly on the whole Heated Rivalry thing makes a lot more sense now.

Yeah I primarily just watch content from channels I'm already subscribed to. And, yeah, those will always exist but at least RoboDonkey765* has worked on a skill like video editing.

*Apologies if there's an actual RoboDonkey765 out there and they're not making fan-made edits of trailers

I stopped watching trailers that YouTube recommended because of AI slop

It's like the lovechild between Homeward Bound and a cozy British murder mystery and I'm weirdly intrigued.
