when i reread josh’s report i noticed that he was taking 90 milligrams a day. AND HE QUIT IT JUST COLD TURKEY OUTRIGHT !!
i’m genuinely surprised at how he managed to keep it all together when everybody got to the lodge.
The symbolism of hannah washington having a butterfly tattoo while she also undergoes a horrific metamorphosis and transforms into a monster that doesn’t even resemble her old self anymore
i also don't think Whittaker and Santos would tell anyone they're living together. Whittaker would be like i can't tell anyone i moved in with Santos or they'll find out i was secretly living in the hospital and Santos is like i can't tell anyone i let Whittaker move in with me that'll destroy my reputation. so they just silently agree to arrive at work separately and not discuss it at work.
eventually after like 6 months Whittaker lets it slip and everyone's very confused bcos firstly no-one thought they were friends and secondly why have they kept this totally normal thing a secret
obsessed with the Helena and Irving parallel and what it says about the aspects of our identity we think are fundamental (but aren't)...
Like Outie Irving assumes his Innie is just as radically anti-Lumon as he is. He assumes his hatred of Lumon is something ingrained in his personality! That's why he stays up at night drinking coffee and making paintings, because he hopes that when his innie dreams about the testing floor, he'll say "okay bet" and start exploring. That's what Outie Irving would do, after all. But he miscalculated! His hatred of Lumon isn't inherent--- his desire for meaning and art and spirituality is inherent. That's what his hatred for Lumon is built on. But in a world where there's no meaning outside of Lumon propaganda, of COURSE his innie would become ridiculously devoted to the company.
And Helena!! She is the corporation, that's her whole identity. She presumably assumed that Helly would be just as pro-Lumon as she is. But she miscalculated too! Her devotion to the company isn't inherent, her headstrong and entitled nature is what's inherent! And in a world where she's denied any agency whatsoever, that manifests as rebellion.
It's the same dynamic flipped on its head. They both sent their innies in there with opposite intentions--- one to take down the company, one feed the company's expansion--- only to realize that rebellion and devotion aren't inherent characteristics. Their innies have become the exact opposite of their outie selves, while still being exactly the same!! Because even though your personality is inherent, the values you hold are determined circumstantially. OUGH IT'S SO GOOD.

i fear joshua washington did nothing wrong. if my sisters disappeared because not just my friends, but theirs too decided to pull a prank that humiliated one of them to the point of running out of the cabin and the other running after to console. i too would have lashed out. and to top it off, josh was highly medicated before they disappeared and then stopped taking his meds. COLD. TUEKRY. i'm surprised he didn't actually kill one of them
something i appreciate about community's depiction of abed is how he's not only cool with physical affection from his friends, he's often the one who initiates it. he loves his friends, his friends love him and they enjoy being close. they find comfort in each other's presences. i feel like this sort of thing is rare in media featuring autistic characters idk it just makes me love him (+ the study group) more
No no you don't understand! I want to watch this show/movie, read this book, listen to this podcast, etc.! But I must be in the right mindset and the exact head space to begin, or I just can't!
