See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna

ugh the transphobia in one piece is such a fucking frustrating ruinous thing

one piece first of all i'm trans so i have an unholy amount of trans rage but second of all it's fucking unbelievable how stupid oda is i'm mad but also i think a Lot about trans narratives. i see them everywhere because i'm. y'know. trans but also TRANS NARRATIVES okay i would rewrite one piece and the rewrite exclusively focuses on making sanji trans in a good way. yeah i'm talking abt transfem sanji now look if transfem sanji was a thing in the show it would not be a good thing. a lot of harmful stereotypes. but i think there's such a golden opportunity that has been wasted by transphobia because look a character who in early childhood was only treated well by women and poorly by men growing up surrounded by men starts building up a fancy masculine facade with wearing suits all the time and it's a fucking devastating blow to their whole ideals of character but they're stronger for it once they build themself up brand new. trans trans transgender trans look ok i know this isn't the place to get it and i know that the transphobia in the world would probably make this shit but i want a story where. a longtime character slowly realizes they are trans. it's like with marco from star vs again i wanted it so bad i just feel like every time i see a trans character it's post coming-out. which i also love. but the realization of true self and the slow process of REMAKING YOURSELF. IN YOUR OWN IMAGE. I LOVE TRANS PEOPLE transness is akin to godliness i kinda lost the plot in these tags but that's ok being trans is so important and trans narratives are so important. and I love one piece! i really do! that's why it bothers me so much when this series does stuff like this if it was a media i didn't care abt i would just drop it and move on and i definitely think that's a smart decision for when you don't wanna let something get to you but i've been invested for years so i guess i'll stay STILL GONNA BE FRUSTRATED THOUGH anyway. trans one piece fans out there...!! stay strong!! you're the best ones among us!! on my way to my notesapp to do some writing. lmao bye also sorry for all the one piece posting i unfortunately fell down here again please help me

So I’ve been listening to The Wrong Station. It’s a horror anthology podcast – a true anthology, no overarching plot or recurring characters, just some standalone spooky stories.

Overall I like it – there’s more consistency to it than most anthology podcasts because it keeps the same writers rather than taking submissions. They generally have good narrators, and there’s a nice vibe of “Lights Out” and other old-timey radio horror programs to it. Like any collection of short stories it’s still a little hit or miss, but there’s a nice variety and a bunch I liked.

I’ve made a list of some of my favorite episodes for anyone interested. (CWs under the cut, this list is highly subjective and probably speaks as much to my personal taste in horror as anything else.)

Top Ten:

  • S2E11: Bad Road – Cursed/haunted highways are a criminally underused setting for horror.
  • S2E13: On Black Lake – This one makes me sad, but in a good way.
  • S3E25: War Comes Home – I liked where this one ended up.
  • S3E26: The Attendant – This one is just brutal, truly communicates a feeling of actual horror.
  • S3E28: In The Dead Of Night – A nice, menacing ghost story. Has a real “Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark” feel.
  • S3E32: Northland Bus – I love this one. It’s just weird, weird, weird.
  • S3E43: Into Pigment – Do you like your horror with a side of painful and messy emotions? Buddy have I got a story for you.
  • S3E45: Aquarium – A story about a really weird fish. That’s it.
  • S4E52: Roses – Nice, solid spooky story about messed up things happening to messed up people in a messed up house.
  • S4E59: The Door – Gotta love a mysterious door.

Other decent/notable episodes:

  • S1E8: Family Business – Your basic creepy funeral director story, this one is fun.
  • S2E12: These Old Trees – A man takes you for a walk in the woods and tells you a story.
  • S3E27: Come And See – If you liked Season 2 of Archive 81 you’ll probably like this. If you hated Season 2 of Archive 81, you’ll probably hate this.
  • S3E34: Velvet – DEER HORROR DEER HORROR
  • S3E41: Flynn’s – A horror story about gentrification. That’s not a spoiler, you’ll pick it up fast.
  • S4E53: Auld Tup – I’ll be honest, I’m not even sure why I like this one so much, or if anyone else will enjoy it as much as I did. The “reveal” isn’t really a reveal as it’s pretty obvious where things are going to go from the start. There’s just something about the weird, deadpan vibe of this little folk horror story that delights me.
  • S4E65: Unbridled – Scifi-horror. Getting some ‘Annihilation’ vibes from this one.
  • S5E67: Pollo Rojo – The real nightmare here is being stuck in a shitty, shitty restaurant job. Don’t listen to this one while eating is all I can say.
  • S5E75: Sweets – The villain was colonialism all along! A silly, nasty little story for anyone who wants to watch a terrible person slowly destroy themselves.
  • S5E78: My Darling Little Cat – Another silly, nasty story. This is one where the narration really elevates it.
  • Snip Or Treat – “Short Snips” are their flash fiction collections, and this is their first Halloween-themed one.
  • Snips in Stockings – Christmas themed horror stories aren’t that common, and I like some of the things they try with this.
  • Please Consider This – More of a trailer than an actual episode, but a fun one. Some vaguely “WTNV Twitter” vibes with the short, strange images.

Adding S7E2: The Agony and A Pustular Party Pack Patreon Sampler to the list. The former is a deeply painful story about what happens when your body truly turns on you, the latter are three fun stories that really lean into the "someone telling you a fucked up thing that happened" vibe.

find again oo! this podcast really intrigues me because i love anthologies and i LOVE horror anthologies and i liked the magnus archives but lost intrest when the plot became more overarching instead of each episode telling a standalone story i don't listen to a lot of podcasts rn but i've been enjoying 'are you scared' on youtube soooo i dunno maybe i'll check this out sometime
