Plot summary

In fictional Thebes in Upstate New York,[1] in 1999 during the run-up to the end of the year, the Scales family must deal with a matriarch driven half-mad by a blow to the head by a statue of the Virgin Mary. Meanwhile, gay choirmaster Jeremy must find a practice space for his band, drawing him into a collision course with the local nuns.

gollark: Quite possibly.
gollark: I don't know. You postulated that long term memory had, so maybe.
gollark: Your undercooked pork example, as I said, does not work now because we can cook things.
gollark: I think it's reasonable to assign old "battle-tested" ideas *some* extra weight, but not just to discard innovations which do better in a bunch of areas because they aren't old.
gollark: Aren't those somewhat culturally determined too?
