they can stop "Rick and Morty" now

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Kokubunji, 2023.12.18

They can stop "Rick and Morty" now. This week's episode was perfect. I don't think I've ever commented on a TV show in this long journal of mine (or favorably, anyway), but it was just perfect. Such a good exploration of the relationship between the two characters, and such a good depiction of how far young Morty has come.

rand()m quote

If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until you can hardly bear to look at it. A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.

—Roald Dahl
