It was an open secret that Dolly Parton secretly funded a massive number of southern high school bands, most especially predominantly Black high schools. A marching band member in her youth, Dolly never forgot the joy that playing snare drum

Yeah ok, I’m doing this. Here is some advice for aspiring game writers. Do not come into games wanting to be a game writer with the attitude that all you are going to write are the cinematics. Fact: a game’s story is not about the cinematics. 🧵

So, a lot of mystery tv shows suffer from characters being idiots or doing stupid shit to put them in trouble or to support a bad plot. (I hate that, in case you could not tell already.) "I Will Find You" absolutely does not do this, not fucking once. It has been such a good watch as a result.
