It’s hard to get a tan in the winter — especially in the mountainous Old West. Skin toughens, dries out, and starts to map every contour of a hard life. Scars stand out sharper in the cold air. And Old Cutthroat Bill? She’s not afraid to show us her pain — physical or otherwise.

Being an outlaw is a tricky business. When companionship comes through kidnapping, gambling, or whatever dirty hustle gets you a clean dopamine hit, you start to understand the desperation of a gray, sun-starved frontier. It’s not like they had antidepressants. Seasonal gloom probably hit a lot of Westerners hard — and the “treatments” weren’t FDA-approved.

Anywho… join your friends at OMFG as we watch the Tubi original The Thicket and spiral into conversations about Juliette Lewis, frontal assault tactics, nepotism, church burnings — and not in that order. You’ll be thrilled by our geography detective work, and whatever you do, don’t cross Dinklage. He may just nail your nether parts to a wooden chair.

Godspeed, sinners.
