Socially Awkward Bitch

I take on fish everyday. Not ones that size, you don't. Don't you worry about me and size.

It's fun that Heated Rivalry got an adaptation, and it makes sense considering Jacob Tierney's prior experience making a hockey show. Heartstopper definitely deserved an adaptation, and it's worth celebrating how both Oseman and the actors' trajectories have skyrocketed (Oseman especially deserves to overthrow another English author).

At the same time, it's hard to miss that Check Please! arrived on the scene, and was even talked about in national publications, before both of those. It arguably helped to set the stage. Not to mention creating a poll powerful enough to be used (without attributation) by a random British show. Yet there aren't even rumblings about an adaptation, despite the fact that the way Ngozi structured the layout already is akin to a storyboard.

I'M SO CALM AND NORMAL ABOUT THIS
