Lilith "But Frederick is quite adamant about his choice! I would not brave an arctic maelstrom to visit my ex-husband if I thought this was simply a phase. Loathed as I am to admit it, I… I can’t handle this alone.”
Frasier smiles, warmly clasps Lilith’s shoulders, and moves in for a hug “You’re not alone. We can brave this storm together.”
The power flickers out as the wind howls outside
Frasier “Both the metaphorical… and literal.”
Scene ends.
Frasier “I suppose I just don’t understand what could spark such a drastic change in Frederick’s interests? We’ve always been so nurturing to his needs, broadening his horizons, opening up opportunities... Perhaps my leaving Boston was a mistake.”
Daphne lightly wraps a towel around Lilith’s shoulders while talking “Oh don’t be so down on yourself, Dr. Crane. You’re a wonderful father! If ya don’t mind me saying, it seems rather clear to me what’s happening - Freddy’s at the age where children start to rebel against their parents and society. Music is always a big part of that rebellion. It happens with every generation. First it was swing music, then jazz, rock ‘n roll, punk, disco - and today it’s rap! It’s counterculture!”
Frasier “Daphne - One of those things is definitely not like the others.”
Frasier "Not a gift wrapper, Niles."
Martin "You mean like that MC Hammer guy?"
Lilith "Precisely."
Niles "I wonder what Freddy’s pseudonym would be? MC Escher, perhaps."
Try sorting by Top: 6 Hours, that keeps things a little fresher. Also you could sort by New, but that can get overwhelming depending on the level of activity.
Frasier: [Nervously pouring drinks for Lilith, himself, and a visibly devastated, nearly catatonic Niles] Dear god, but Frederick has always had academic aspirations. Remember when he was six years old and he wanted to dress as Archimedes for Halloween? What on earth could he possibly wish to pursue now?
Lilith: He wants to be a rapper.
Niles: [visibly confused] He wants to work at the mall?
Infinity was the app that really made Reddit click for me. As far as Lemmy goes, Liftoff is the best out of the 5 or so that I've tried.
I'm pleased to see an active Frasier community here! When my favorite Reddit app closed I felt like Martin losing Duke's. Hopefully Lemmy will be my McGinty's.
Your parents... live... together? And they... talk to each other?? But that only happens on TV!
Lemmy has been giving me Old Internet Forum vibes so far and I love it. The shift towards centralized corporate homogeneity over the last 15ish years has been a horror show to watch and it feels like it's starting to crumble a bit, which I'm eager to see happen.
I extend the same consideration to the Lemmy apps as well. They're all in various stages of development, but as buggy as they can be, they run better than the official Reddit app even now.
If I remember correctly, they say that the rocks in the cavern are merely "the most delicious". So this is really the equivalent of a kid opening the fridge and seeing that they're out of pizza rolls and whining that there's nothing to eat.
