[00:00:00] So, you know, Jordan, I've really been starting to learn the giddo engine, but I really feel like it's really a matter of waiting, you know, because I feel like it's not properly progressed.
[00:00:07] Oh my god, David, shut up. That's the oldest fucking joke ever in any way.
[00:00:12] It is time for...
[00:00:14] The Shake Song!
[00:00:16] MIMI! with us on the channel flop discord every Tuesday at 3.30 p.m. Eastern when there's a new chapter out. Finally to end the show notes or on our site. And Jordan, what was your devil this week? My devil this week is the kitten devil David. You have to be kidding me. Shut up listeners will know that a few months ago I got a little kit. His name is Ozzy. He's adorable. He's also a fucking
[00:01:41] menace who terrorizes his older brother and sister who uh just want these cats just want to like She actually jumped on to aggressively my friend, chipped her tooth. Oh my God! So we were just like, it's just best if she doesn't. It is. Good luck keeping her off though. She's been good to actually. I had an interview today and I put her in the other room and she literally sat in her bed the whole time. Aw, she's a good girl. She a good goblin. A good, unfurnish goblin, baby. Yes.
[00:03:00] You'll find out in our next episode why she's an unfurnish dog.
[00:03:03] But Jordan, enough about that.
[00:03:04] Can you give us the plot summary for...
[00:03:06] Chapter 152! or devouring them and commenting how this pain feels good, like a massage. Ooh, baby. So good. Anyway, Dennis interns to Naiuta and suggests that maybe she shouldn't hang around with him anymore because this carnage is what truly makes him happy or Naiuta. She's going to need a lot of chocolate milk after this. It's true. And as everybody knows, carnage is a powerful card and slay the spire that is a theory only
[00:04:24] exhaustive.
[00:04:25] You don't play it as everybody knows. I was talking to Steph about this and she kind of pointed out like this chapter is very sad It is like he's devolving it kind of reminded me of like Do you know why it's really hard sometimes to keep people who are bipolar on their medication? Why well the mania is very dangerous also a lot of the times makes you feel very good So it's like this
[00:05:41] difficult thing to do like this chapter kind of, easy shit that just makes me feel alive and it makes me feel like, I know what I'm doing, I'm in my element. And, you know, it's also like, I mean, it's obviously complicated because like, on the flip side, like, he kind of did need to turn it to chain some of it.
[00:07:00] His kind of situation was pushed more or less.
[00:07:05] Like, yeah, yeah. I think that the interpretation there just is there. It's just there's not a lot that physically happened Yeah, like we could sit here and we have talked about like the implication behind behind what Danji said Behind the emotions behind here behind the about the emotions behind What is going on? But I also you know, I mean he just turned into chainsome and
[00:08:23] Started ripping apart and then a chainsaw man all over the place And I still, I will never learn the lyrics properly. Oh man, I saw that someone is making like a persona inspired Golden Girls game. I think it's like the Golden Girls take Manhattan. Fuck yeah.
