Did anyone see the entire second season of Loki and feel like talking about it? My dad's out of the question because he's been lost this season, which is weird to me when he's watched decades of Doctor Who.

Watching fic writers react to the finale on AO3 has been a trip. ( spoilers )

I'm upset. I did hours of work setting up my (artificial) Christmas tree: fluffing out the branches, putting on the lights, decorating.
