Quick recap for all you filthy normies and tourists.
Fallout TV show came out last week. (It's good actually! 
). According to Bethesda it's fully canon in the fallout universe.
But uh oh! The neurodivergents (me 
) got mad because the show heavily implied that a location (NCR Capital in Shady Sands) that is important to the events of Fallout: New Vegas was destroyed in the year 2277. But Fallout New Vegas doesn't happen until 2281. (Again 
)If true this means that the events of Fallout New Vegas could not have occurred as they are depicted in the game. 
But it's all good, Todd the God 
came out today in an interview and established that the location was destroyed after the events of New Vegas; thus the timeline is restored.

Crisis averted. We never should have doubted Todd. With this holy declaration the only criticism of the show is now mute. Can't wait for children's cartoon and Fallout 77
