doctor hierarchy in season one (The Pitt 2025-)
hannah’s diary is the saddest clue in until dawn, exhibit A:
“i really think josh is doing better now that he's out of the hospital. i saw him today and he seemed better. he's pretty upbeat, but he talked like he's been doing therapy for such a long time. i guess i didn't know. mom and dad never let on. funny how you can not even know your own brother. i kinda need a good cry thinking about how lonely he must feel...”
this says so much about how much josh was already struggling before the disappearance of his sisters, and what his relationship with them was like. they were so close and yet he still managed to hide an integral part of himself from them. hannah realizes there’s more to josh than meets the eye and her first instinct is to think of his feelings and how terrible it must be to feel so isolated. they loved each other so much. i’m sick
shoutout to Mike because even though he was a douche in the beginning he literally went through hell to find Jess
I haven’t watched Gravity Falls in literal months but like…..tonight I was on a baby naming website….and just
His name….literally……means….to cut down trees.
Dipper and Mabel’s last name is Pines.
I hate everything.
How did I NEVER notice this?????
i wanna find whoever makes the intros for apple tv sci fi shows and kiss them
gods bless the gifmakers, fic authors, and fan artists who are single-handedly keeping dying fandoms on life support even though their shows ended years ago. all 3 of us in the tag owe you so much
CHARLIE IN A GRADUATION GOWN OMG HE KNOWS HOW TO READ NOW 😭😭😭
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
“i hope you die” lame, overused, unoriginal
“i hope your favourite book series gets a netflix adaptation which is actually good and popular only for netflix to cancel it after 2 seasons” horrifying, upsetting, stabbing me would hurt less
I love the character herself and I love the “arc” she has within the game – as a horror (movie) fan, I think hers is probably the best if I’m honest. You start the game and instantly she’s seen as a bitchy, sexually confident woman, then when you’ve finished the game there are two different outcomes:
She either serves her purpose as the first girl to die – the girl who’s “slutty” and in turn gets punished for it – or alternatively, you can have her be a character that defies all odds and becomes a story of desperate survival.
No matter what happens, ultimately the character still serves the purpose her trope creates – she gets punished for being sexual. She either dies horribly, or she gets unbelievably traumatized and almost dies multiple times. While the trope of punishing the sexual woman within horror movies is undoubtedly controversial and “problematic,” I think the game takes a really unique spin on it by offering up the choice of keeping all characters alive.
To be honest, I think she’s probably stronger material for a character who’s a play on the “final girl” trope too. She gets pulled into the mines, most usually during a state of undress so she’s also at a state of vulnerability, and right before she’s saved by her boyfriend – the “hero” – she falls deeper into the mines and is assumedly trapped, beyond saving. Only she gets up, with multiple scratches and scars upon her skin and a broken leg, and uses her quick-thinking into surviving until dawn. And she has everything against her – not just the trope of “slutty girl dies first,” but also the fact that Mike assumes she’s dead. She’s not, but he doesn’t know that so he’s now stopped trying to rescue her. She’s all alone with two Wendigos now chasing her. But despite it all, she can survive. Everything is working against her, but she can survive. And I love it.
(There’s a fuck ton I could gush about – like how she’s arguably a rather progressive spin on the trope her character is meant to be, the existential dread and misery that can be brought upon by her survival, etc., but I think y'all get the point. Jessica is a queen and I love her)
there was something “poetic” about van surviving all these external forces that should have killed her, only to get cancer years later and be slowly dying from an internal one. just for the writers to say never mind and have her die from getting stabbed
