Yeah the only example I can think of that doesn’t fit that mold is American Mary
the cool premise in which isn’t a world, but a hypothetically possible situation (desperately broke medical student turns to stripping, which leads to back alley surgery for gangsters, which leads to black market body modification surgery) and the letdown isn’t the characters or plot, it’s the hamfisted script and acting lol
Excellent premise: vampire post-epidemic society trying to deal with the scarcity of blood, ethical ramifications of keeping the remaining humans sedated for blood harvesting, technical challenges like adapting infrastructure and vehicles to be sun-proof, etc.
The only thing I clearly remember is the premise, cuz the plot, characters, dialogue, action, etc. was all dog trash
Actually, I do remember how badly it mangled the social commentary on the vampires who couldn’t afford blood. Perfect setup for depicting the inhumanity of artificial scarcity and they botched it.
I have! I’m thinking this should be my first step once I finish grad school and get something resembling a stable income. It’ll also force me to downsize my stuff. I’m a serial hobbyist and have… entirely too much stuff for any kind of compact living arrangement lol
Apartment, but only because I can’t stand the thought of investing* in something that’s stuck in one location forever.
My dream dwelling would be a houseboat. I get the benefits of owning my dwelling but retain the ability to physically relocate it.
*As if I could even afford that lol. I doubt I’m even gonna live long enough to afford a houseboat ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
hydro massage. one of the worst physical sensations I’ve ever experienced. imagine being poked by an annoying toddler through a canvas tarp 100 times a second and also the tarp is warm and there are LOUD water sounds and your skin starts itching and just NOOOOOOPE
I’ll stick with the regular massage chairs and actual massage therapy!
can’t wait to go back to having to turn all drinking water into light beer because it’s the only way to purify it
