If you hate God and want to curse him as much as you can, then this is the stream for you. They will curse and say hateful things to God constatly. Enjoy hate, the the cornerstone of drawfee is hate.
the quick shift from "if my big mac was one gherkin short I wouldn't even notice" to "no! that is not enough pickles! three is the minimum this is where I stand"...contradiction detected
Jacob giving the impassioned double quarter pounder speech with the suspenseful murder music playing from the paused game under it was somehow such a perfect combo
Who knew a game that’s 90% saying “Do you recognize THIS!!?!” could be so entertaining? I laughed so hard at this stream…especially the cat zoom and the “Paul discussing Big Mac” riff. Also noticed they’re named after “Atlas Shrugged” and they named Paul and Ryan’s last name Rand after the author
It's funny how nobody seems capable of lying more than once in this game, the moment anyone is caught in a lie they start volunteering potentially self-incriminating truths rather than double down with more lies...
What about Emma? I wasn't here Fri. Well, yes, I was, but I didn't argue with Kate. Well, yes, I did it was about money. Okay, no it was about an affair someone had with Ryan. Okay, it was me who had the affair. She's not _good_ at it but she absolutely did try to lie multiple times about the same thing
Listen, I fully understand not remembering what you were doing in a game a week ago, but watching this game's vods in order means I watched Jacob meticulously make his way out of old guy's interrogation and house before saving and then immediately saw him fuss at the game for not leaving him where he saved and that is objectively hilarious.
there's something quite satisfying about all the little scene transitions as you move about in the game. Just the opening and closing of the journal and the doors makes my monkey brain go "hm, nice :)"
I love how this dude just has all this shit like in his hand ready to go when he asks a question. You never see him get it out from anywhere, or put it away, his shit is just always in his hand when he needs it somehow.
Paul is played by Paul Darrow, legendary British actor featured in hundreds of Sci Fi classics. Sadly he died in 2019. We should have a moment of perfect enunciation for a legend. :)
Those masks are often used in a theater exercise called 'Neutral Man'. The exercise is supposed to teach you how to React authentically, since acting is reacting and all that. They are not usually used in doll-burning classes. XD
all this pickle talk is incredibly funny to me because i used to work at mcdonalds and yes, in fact, a hamburger only had one pickle on it. additionally, there was a rule called "friends not lovers", wherein if there were multiple pickles on a sandwich, they were "friends not lovers" and thus could not touch each other.
1:41:14 This shot is so funny. That tv clearly has no dvd slot there. There would need to be considerably more girth on the side for that to be there. They just handed the dvd to someone behind the tv, or maybe to themself XD The next shot even shows a totally different televesion with no buttons on the side bezel like the previous shot.
inc ase anyone is wondering, Salvia Divinarium is (sadly) no longer legal in the UK. This was due to a broadstrokes law passed in 2016 that banned all psycoactive substances, whether they were dangerous or not. There is no evidence that salvia has a longterm negative effect or that there is a widespread problem with it.
Dyspraxia is also related to neurodivergence. More common in people with autism and adhd. And like having a poor sense of where your body is in space, including mixing up your left and right, that sort of thing
It is so wild hearing people call the literal "I love you" sign satanic. Like, I know it's in American Sign Language and the game takes place in the UK but it's such a jarring disconnect.
The guilt thing was interesting because it feels both wrong and right. Obviously guilt is important and you should feel guilty about doing something wrong, but it's also important to be able to let go of guilt at a certain point because dwelling on it can indeed be destructive.
As someone who worlds at an arts-n-crafts store, I gotta say that those are some of the cheapest, most poorly fitting mass produced masks you can get. And that those burning wool dolls are gonna really stink up the place, because burnt wool smells like burnt hair.
I wish, when they said nobody ever saw them and Nathan together, someone in chat would've put a picture of them together and been like "What about THIS!"
Lmao, he says emotions are archaic? Emotions, and especially the ability to socialize and cooperate, are highly evolved traits. Some of the most intelligent creatures are social and that's not a coincidence. There are also really good reasons for emotions. Some like fear keep us safe. Affection motivates us to protect our young and the others in our tribe because we depend on each other. We've only been able to build so much because we worked together. While TOO MUCH guilt can be the opposite of helpful in some cases, guilt exists for a very good reason. If we were all pissing each other off all the time while living in small tribes, we wouldn't survive very long.
It's interesting to see how occulty this game is. As a former male witch, I have done scrying with a mirror and with a pendant, and the mirror was the only one that worked for me. I'm really loving this game, and I'm looking forward to the next part.
Has Julia ever played LA Noire? I know it's an old game at this point but the mystery aspect and reading microexpressions in interrogations seems like it would be right in her wheelhouse.
I love how the wacky phrase about gherkins contextualized a word I recently learned in German: the German word for cucumber is Gurke, which is awfully similar
Anyone else get all anxious when you come up with a contradiction before Julia and Jacob, and they just keep glancing right over it so you're like "ARRRRRRGGG"? Nevertheless, gotta love these two.
1:13:10 - Oh man, that brings back memories... my community college years were basically fueled by crispy ranch snack wraps. Then shortly after I graduated they retired the whole snack wrap line. I don't really go to McDonalds anymore now...
Jacob and I had the EXACT same reaction to Julia only going to Taco Bell twice, and choosing to only have the nachos LMAO Also congratulations on your guys engagement, wishing you all the best!!!
Re: The taco bell vs. mexican food convo during the ad break Taco bell is to mexican food as panda express is to chinese food. They're both americanized versions of their related type of food and are horrible for you, and while are very good, are distinctly different from their related type of food.
There‘s a bit at around 1:16:00 where it looks like Olive is tiny and perched on Julia‘s shoulder and it‘s Excellent (also they zoom in on her after, and then an EXCELLENT Julia „jumpscare“. It‘s Killing me)
This game is so strange. You ask the people a hundred questions and they give one sentence answers. Then once you find the right contradiction to move the plot along, the character suddenly has a monologue and tells you so much information its a strange change of pace.
i know this stream is like two years old but. the cat moment at 1:16:25 to 1:16:38 was so perfect like she came into focus RIGHT on beat with the music that was such cinematic timing
"I'm one card short of a full deck I'm not quite the shilling One wave short of a shipwreck I'm not my usual top-billing I'm coming down with a fever I'm really out to sea This kettle is boiling over I think I'm a banana tree I'm knitting with only one needle Unraveling fast. It's true I'm driving only three wheels these days But, my dear, how about you?" -Queen "I'm going Slightly Mad" This is what I thought of 😁👍
So I've worked at McDonald's for a while and I can 100% certify that quarter pounder meat has as much of a chance of having sat in the heater for a while as Big Mac meat. Maybe it depends on locations, maybe some do them only when required, but I wouldn't assume that right off the bat unfortunately.
... so I'm just watchin the video I zone out for a moment and they zoom in on the ca, I look away again and surprise ITS JULIA!!! lol holy shit that was unexpected and now my side hurts :) this is fantastic
Well the beauty of it is everyone goes "oh he's crazy" and then as the story unravels it turns out he's right. Conspiracies do happen. That's the tricky part with "conspiracy theorist" as an insult/discreditor. For that reason these days people are more specific about it and call people anti-vaxxers, Qanon believers, flat earthers, etc. Labels that describe beliefs so obviously untrue they reflect very poorly on anyone who believes in them. James believes that celebrities and politicians engage in devil worship (he ignorantly calls it satanism, but that's not what it is and even uses the wrong symbol for it 🤟) and that these public figures/influencers use dogwhistles and subliminal messaging for their occult behavior. James also believes celebrities and politicians engage in human trafficking; that they deliberately influence people (starting young of course) into stripping their individuality and becoming easily manipulated worker bees. Both of James's beliefs are conspiracy theories. But as you've pointed out, the second theory of his is literally true.
