Are you strong? This time we're dealing with the implications of Citan as party leader, finding Zeal in Xenogears, developing some suspicious Dan suspicions, meeting Id and wondering gosh what the heck is an Id, watching heroes come out of the rafters, LOOKING AT STONE'S FACE OR LACK THEREOF, clarifying a "fake awakening," questioning Grahf's motivations, doing bong rips with Citan, desiring a Jessie manga, laughing at Stone self-identify as an incel, noting the absurdity of suicide Gears, and observing the second amendment. All of this power is fake.
