Is A Found Family Required To Even Like Each Other? The Answer Might Surprise You

HELLO TUMBLR.

I'm Meg and I'm currently about halfway through producing season one of famous audio drama KILLJAM XXX. Unfortunately my laptop is old and needs a lot of parts replaced!

I have the tools to replace the battery myself, but not the other stuff. And my hard drive is out of free space, so I can no longer back up new episodes as I produce them. SO BASICALLY- if this machine explodes, I will lose huge amounts of progress. And also like loads of important documents and programs I need for work and shit. but who cares about those. LET'S KEEP IT TO KILLJAM.

ANYWAY. HERE'S WHAT I NEED FROM YOU:

200 DOLLARYDOOS FOR A NEW PORTABLE HARD DRIVE. This is the most important part, because I have an old desktop at my dad's house that I can use. but in order to use it for killjams I need to back up my laptop. and to do that. I need. a new portable hard drive.

1500 DOLLARYDOOS FOR A NEW LAPTOP. I am going to try and replace my macbok battery myself. but I'm kinda stupid so I might fuck it up. and ifixit doesn't sell speakers for this model. and professional repairs are expensive. so if I explode my computer with battery acid I will just need to nut up and get a new laptop.

If this sounds like lots of money please remember that those are AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS.

Anyway! If you'd like to help me out, I'm megsothoth on kofi! And I take commissions too- DM me for details!

Guys..... Please listen to Roy Kaplan. This show has so much love and effort poured into it over a long (& very worth the length) production time, AND EVERY EPISODE HAS ITS OWN ILLUSTRATION!!??? I MEAN COME ON!!!!!! IM GRINNING LIKE A MANIAC!!!!!!! If I was a billionaire I would reward that with one ZILLION dollars (I stole an additional trillion to get to a zillion, from my billion. We all know rich people steal). You know how much I love illustration (if u know me... or I suppose that's fairly obvious, but I digress) Anyways the performances are so fun & the story is fantastic, and the creator/production is so so very kind, pls give this audio drama the love it so very much deserves – there isn't much to get thru listening-wise, and u will not be disappointed. Again thank u for letting me be a part of this in general, I AM SO HONORED. I'm shaking around little pompoms for ROY KAPLAN!!!!

KINGMAKER IS BACK AND SO AM I

Listened to the newest episode 3 times at work yesterday and dropped everything to write my reaction. Minimum wage = minimum effort......... but maximum effort for the Kingmaker Histories. Spoilers below for EP 27.... THERE'S MORE WAYS TO GO ON A TRIP THAN TO USE A VAN!!!!!!!!!

• LOOOVE Bradley Gareth AND Liz Morey's PERFORMANCES AS MARGO AND HOLZMANN SOOOO MUCH These characters are written so so so evil (love them!!! Just don’t want them to be real, THANK YOU!!!!) and their acting makes me shit myself. OBSESSED PER USHE w/ every performance in Kingmaker • One of the best openings in the show's history I’m sorry but Ariadne showing up bareass and then rapidly eating papers and then turning into a rat and then a bird and breaking a window is so fucking funny LOVE HER • “But!!! It’s my birthday!!!” Colette…. 🥺🎂🎂🎂 <- That’s her • “Leave. LEAVE FASTER” LMFAO • Telesphore’s “WHAT??!!! …. GIVE ME A MIRROR. Oh IM HIDEOUS” THE DELIVERY WAS SO FUNNY. I love Eisen and Colette giggling in the BG. I love these 3 so much there is so much funny real chemistry. How many times can I say I love Iyer Winterlich and Co. 1092728192727818 times. Infinity times. • Eisen’s startled “AAOUGH” BEFORE FINDING THE FINGER IN HIS POCKET GOT ME TOO • “Better make ur move or I’m gonna go become a nun or something”. Colette’s (heavy-quotes) “old” freak out…… She went to the beach that makes you old…. ALSO “I’m like an amoeba!” ALSO ALSO “All I’ve accomplished in the past 12 months is a whole lot of stealing a domestic terrorism!!!!” Technically an achievement Colette • When are we getting a full blown illust of Telesphore dressed up like rye bread • “The boxes they come in are really cute tho, can I look at it again” amazing delivery by Blythe yet again • SHE’S EXTREMELY CORRUPTIBLE! • THE DRUG TRIP AT THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN HAS TO BE ONE OF MY FAV PARTS OF THE EP before it all goes south…. Quite literally for Colette (Hell). The pink and the blue make an absolutely mental shade of purple 😈👾💜💟🚺🎆🍇 🌊 🌊 🌊 I would listen to a whole hour+ of the three of them just (positively) tripping out. Also the sfx go hard. I love listening to this w earbuds. If I tried the thimbledrops I’d let them trip sit me. Actually I wouldn’t let Colette trip sit me because she’d make me have a panic attack but Eisen and Telesphore would go hard. (Sorry gurl) Actually maybe just Telesphore. Yeah. Only Telesphore • “That he has to promoze— … that he has to propose to me” BEST DELIVERY. Also I LOVVVEEEE how “I feel weird” sounds. COLETTE FEELS WEIRD!!!!! • THE “IMPS/DEMONS CHORTLING AND MAKING FUN OF COLETTE” SCENE IS MY FAVORITE IM PREDICTABLE. I LOOOVE THEIR VOICES SO MUCH. “DEFINITELY HELL!!!!!!!!!!” 👹👹👹 • Dead But Not Really Telesphore. He is resting, he is at peace. He is being harassed by teenagers who carry razors and shaving cream for oddly-specific situations such as these. I love that he says “Oh, and it’s uneven” Telesphore I manifest a barber 💈 will give u a free haircut and trim next time you get high as a kite and look half-dead • MISKA 👹 • “Oh Colette dont be so modest” HI SATAN, AWESOME DELIVERY. Still love that his voice is her dads. Is this a safe space. Why’s he hot. I suppose it’s because he’s in hell. But also metaphorically. Colette’s demon dilf • “I thought I was a soufflé, and that any sudden noise would make me deflate” THIS TELESPHORE LINE IS THE FUNNIEST MOST TELESPHORE CODED LINE IN THE WORLD • Her 26th birthday was much less terrible 🥺🥺🥺 • I’m scared of Holzmann I WAS AT PEACE AND HAPPY W THE TRIO’S FUNNY RESOLUTION AND YOU RIP IT FROM UNDER ME!!!!! YOU LEAVE ME WITH HOLZMANN!!!!!!!!!! FUCK YOU!!!!!!!

for day 6/7 of podcast girls week! late for day 6 (and almost day 7 oops), but this is pure self-indulgence :3c
