Oh, neat! That makes a lot of sense. Yeah, I wasn't mad at the show for seeming to define good old-fashioned elbow grease as some higher calling, but it seemed, like, a bit much? Conviction, though, that I can see.

Ha ha, yeah, looks like you caught that. I needed some way to acknowledge that people had feelings about what was coming up (and they are mostly not good!), without getting drawn into anything that'd give more away.

And, I mean, it doesn't really bother me. I'd like to stay as spoiler-free as possible, but I know that a) shouting NO SPOILERS for a show that finished airing almost three years ago is not really fair, and b) it's folks who are engaged with the franchise, and they aren't trying to be rude.

Still, everybody's been really great so far. This is a pretty good community! Y'all should be proud of yourselves.
