Dec 16, 2018 17:36

I don't know what happened, but here is a liveblog of me slowly losing my mind in one short weekend.

It started so innocently...

8:45 PM fenlings: shes using her powers on the dumbest things
8:45 PM fenlings: use it on ur hair!!!
9:58 PM fenlings: "youngest ever tenure at yale" so ridic, mary sue
9:59 PM fenlings: for studying about the history of alchemy
9:59 PM fenlings: who gives tenure for that
10:15 PM fenlings: this show is really library-focused
10:29 PM fenlings: this is soooooooooooo boringgggg
10:29 PM fenlings: but i can't stop watching
10:29 PM fenlings: matthew goode has a lot to answer for
11:18 PM fenlings: uggh his smug "im a vampire im ollld i namedrop famous ppl"

11:19 PM fenlings: the plot of this show is literally about a professor taking a book out of a university library
11:19 PM fenlings: she doesn't want to take out the book
11:19 PM fenlings: other people want her to take out the book
11:19 PM fenlings: everyone is hanging out in the library
11:19 PM fenlings: lmao
11:19 PM fenlings: action packed

11:34 PM fenlings: lmaooooo matthew has a laboratory to study vampire genetics
11:37 PM fenlings: hes seducing her over explaining graphs of dna i cant
11:39 PM fenlings: omg this genetics lecture is sooooooooooo wrong
11:40 PM fenlings: unless witchcraft is literally a survival skill u need to get to reproduction age, this is some lamarckian bs
11:40 PM fenlings: hes looking at a witch dna from hundreds of years ago, and then dna from one of her modern descendents
11:40 PM fenlings: SURPRISE the descendent has less witchy dna
11:40 PM fenlings: (which lol)
11:41 PM fenlings: hope u controlled for other witch ancestors asshole. obv if one person generations back had a trait, it would be watered down???? i just???????
11:42 PM fenlings: "indicating that her ancestors as the centuries passed relied less and less upon witchcraft to survive"
11:42 PM fenlings: no??????
11:42 PM fenlings: unless magic literally changes ur dna when u use it
11:48 PM fenlings: oh my god

12:00 AM fenlings: oh god yet another witch library
12:01 AM fenlings: i looked up the author to see if she is a librarian
12:01 AM fenlings: "She is a graduate of Mount Holyoke College (B.A., 1986), Northwestern University (M.A., 1990), and the University of California, Davis (Ph.D., 1994).[2] Harkness also studied abroad at Oxford University. She is a well-regarded historian of science and medicine,[3] as well as having studied alchemy, magic and the occult."
12:01 AM fenlings: the lead character is totally her self-insert

12:33 AM fenlings: and how does she not know about dna
12:33 AM fenlings: "history of science" still includes dna
12:34 AM fenlings: his seduction is that she smells and "i can hear your witch's blood moving in your veins"
12:35 AM fenlings: so not hot

5:35 PM fenlings: the vampire danced with her and made her happy so her skin glowed....
5:56 PM fenlings: he's in love with her and "craving" her for no reason its so random
5:59 PM fenlings: so weird that they have so many diegetic noises like footsteps and clocks ticking and mostly no background music
