Sanctuary is a monster-of-the-week show about the people who protect the monsters, and I think Season 2 is the best introduction to that.

Season 1 doesn't work for me because it focuses too much on the Cabal, a group of monster collectors who want to use monsters for evil.
It feels like the show is playing with its formula ("what if there was an evil version of the sanctuary") before it's even established it.

(cont)

no-one asked, but here's my suggested order for watching sanctuary:

* Season 2
* Season 3
(except for episode 15 - it's just a clipshow episode so they could save money)
* Season 4
* Season 1

Season 1 comes last because while it has some great parts, it's got a lot of jank because they hadn't hit their stride yet.

I've considered putting season 1 in between the two halves of Season 3, but I don't know if that would actually be better - it might just be confusing.

@LottieVixen yay!!!!

@rey snooze softly!

I just remembered that I own every episode of Sanctuary on DVD *and* on Bluray.......

and I'm still the only person I know who actually watched the show!!!

@rey hewwo!!

*pokes my head out of a pond*

@BatElite D::

@boobs_idiot@octodon.social the ultrakill soundtrack is so good

And so for the Wụūgụ people, I kind of feel stuck - there are so many different ways of organising societies, how do I just choose (or invent) ONE??

And any choice I make is going to have huge impacts on how the rest of things go.

One of the things I'm struggling with is working out the economy/governance.

Here's a few real-life systems:
* the Inca empire (the empire provides food + clothing in exchange for labour; the empire does not trade with others because it just conquers them instead)
* Aboriginal (Australian) groups (in group people do tasks as per social roles; trading with other groups is gift-exchanges)
* Igbo communities (republic of village-states; with organised markets)

today I've done some research into:
* The Inca Empire
* Traditional Woodblock printing in Japan
* The Igbo, Yoruba, and Javanese calendars
* Yoruba and Inca religions

and the cool thing is: I'm learning a lot!

the less-cool thing is: oh gods there are so many decisions to be made with my worldbuilding project and I have no idea which ones are the Right™ ones.

@monorail it's so good!!!!!!

I'm snooze!

@monorail omg, is this the one which is full of impossibly evil ones?
