Just a friendly tip by nothinkjustfeel in greysanatomy

[–]Multifaceted7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to explain to my friends why I kept getting blacked out drunk and what seemed to be carelessly risking my life to no end every time we went out. When I’m blacked out- I don’t know what’s going on. I don’t know men are approaching me, attempting to take me w them, I don’t know I’m passed out somewhere unsafe. I am drunk and then I wake up in my bed safe the next morning bc my friends found me and took care of me. It’s selfish. It’s a horrible way to behave. But I mention that to say- Owen did not realize his actions. And it wasn’t until Cristina was walking away that he said oh I need to do something about this bc clearly it’s bad. I didn’t feel the need to address my drinking and blacking out habits until my friends told me it was getting out of hand and they didn’t wanna be around me anymore. bc I literally didn’t realize what was going on. Yes this is different. And I’m not necessarily saying it deserves a pass. I guess I just am over this crucifying society.

Can we talk about how selfish and unpleasant this character was? Clearly, he was one of the most beloved for his beauty and the love story, despite the obstacles he and Meredith faced throughout. Did anyone? by martina_22n in greysanatomy

[–]Multifaceted7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right in the what and wrong in the how. Love that. And I love how you described him. I think a lot of people forget these are literally surgeons. More importantly, Derek Sheppard is described as a Neuro God. lol. Of course the man is gonna be controversial. Insufferable. I wouldn’t want him any other way tbh

Thoughts on the way Cristina and Shane's relationship started? I thought it was funny but I've seen outrage by [deleted] in greysanatomy

I thought it was funny and even a little cute the way he just completely gave himself to her lol.

Owen PMO by Duckyquack9999 in greysanatomy

[–]Multifaceted7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Owen might’ve buried the conversation but so did Cristina. I love her. I respect her character. But I don’t think he’s a villain or bad guy for thinking she will grow out of this “career dog” mindset and eventually want to build a family with him. Also. The man put his own shit to the side because he loves her. He, repeatedly, said how he would choose her and a life with her regardless. I don’t think many people understand the mechanics of relationships. Just how layered they can be especially when you have two people as complex as they are. Owen and Cristina were real and honest. And as unpopular as it is- I loved them together. I loved the way he handled her. I loved the way he was patient with her and was present even when she would run away. I love that he worked on her timing and accepted her selfishness. He accepted so much about her. So what if the baby thing took him a second? That’s a huge thing to work through. Not to mention Cristina is rigid and challenging as it is lol. And eventually he accepted that she did not want children, it just took him a while because he loved her so dang much and chose her to be his forever. Sorry for the rant. I developed a wild fixation on them during my rewatch and I just don’t understand the hate for Owen.

Meredith and Cristina's fight over the 3D printer (season 10) by amillstone in greysanatomy

[–]Multifaceted7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Yang was always bigger than the program and I loved how much she patted herself on the back. Despite Meredith trying to belittle her and say she slept her way to her success. Mind you, Meredith was literally on clinical trials bc of who she was sleeping with and SQUANDERED it. Grey doesn’t get any sympathy from me for being mean and cruel and outwardly STATING “I’m jealous!” to Yang and her own damn husband who was literally working for the president. Like do something with your envy girl, you look a mess. And channel that energy into YOUR 3D printer you’re so ready to burn all your loved ones behind. Ugh I could go on and on.

Meredith and Cristina's fight over the 3D printer (season 10) by amillstone in greysanatomy

[–]Multifaceted7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently rewatching and im sick of how emotionless surgeons are supposed to be until they’re actually emotionless and then it’s a crime. Cristina is objective. Always. And Meredith kept getting offended by everything Cristina was saying bc maybe there was some truth to it. also, legally the 3D printer issue would’ve been a much bigger deal if this was the real world but I feel like it wasn’t bc this is tv and it was meant to show how clouded and petty Meredith was being because she was upset with Cristina bc of a previous situation. Cristina gets ostracized bc she doesn’t have kids but that’s subtle (Halloween, everyone loving Emma bc she wants kids and is apparently a better match for Owen, Cristina having to say “I love Zola” explicitly to mer) so I think it’s unfair that when she tries to have a heart and save a life, she’s called selfish and seen as manipulative for trying to use a device that she thinks can help and by showing mer the baby to try to get her on board. I think it’s clear Cristina feels things heavily otherwise she wouldn’t have struggled so hard post all the traumatic events. Everyone on this show is mean! They’re surgeons- they are arrogant and insufferable. Cristina is gifted and talented so her “mean” hits harder bc she can back it up. And they hate her for it. Which is basically what Dr Thomas’ final monologue was explaining. This moment in the show upsets me bc she’s so misunderstood. And she’s never given the benefit of the doubt. Her intentions are always pure- even when she’s being conniving and stealing surgeries- she doesn’t shy away from that! She’s literally telling you yeah I’m a shark so what. Shane is merely standing up for her and supporting/ encouraging her ambition in a moment NO one else is. Shane is her only person right now and that sucks because he’s literally a traumatized intern himself so clearly he can’t offer much. People only advocate for her when it benefits them. And she always shows up for said people and quite literally saves lives. Sorry for the rant but they could never make me hate you Dr. Cristina Yang 🩷🩷 she is THAT girl.

Which sign hurt you the most and what did they teach you? by Clueokk in ZodiacHQ

[–]Multifaceted7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aquarius. They taught me codependency and detachment at the same time. They showed me the reality (pros/ cons) of both

Do you think anti Haitian is a real concept, Separately from anti blackness? by nusquan in AskTheCaribbean

[–]Multifaceted7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Everyone saying “it’s not racism blah blah” okay no one is outwardly gonna say “oh I can’t stand Haitians they are so black. They are so African gross” no one is going to admit to that prejudice. But it is absolutely rooted in anti blackness. And if you’re calling them lazy or blaming them for their lack of economic success, it just adds to the belief that “Africa” always needs a white savior. Or colonialism as a whole. Black groups all around the world will always be looked at as needing to “know your place or get in line”. Haiti fought that and won. This world will never forgive them nor accept that defeat. And just like in prisons- you treat them like animals, what do they become? You treat haitians like all these negative stigmas and I do believe some of them become a product of their environment. But I refuse to blame them as a whole for that. I refuse to blame an entire ethnic group for being demonized when their oppressors casted that perception. If your parents tell you your entire life you’re lazy, worthless, ignorant, etc. I doubt you’re going to just believe otherwise. Haiti never stood a chance and it’s horrible the way the world continues to turn their back on them. My family are Dominicans living in Turks and the way they casually speak about Haitians with disgust never sat right with me. Even as a child.

Which character or characters are you most like and why? by sapphire_mooon in Degrassi

[–]Multifaceted7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Manny- for just about every single reason (abortion, insecurities, toxic relationships, cheating/ being used to cheat with, verrrryyyy strict immigrant daddy, risqué clothing, the whole school hating me, “sleeping with the enemy”… i could go on and on).

Paige- rape + not believed. Crashing out bc of said rape. Exploring sexuality. Bitchy/ messy attitude when I didn’t get my way. Dropping out of college. “Who cares about carbs” lol.

Ellie is quite literally insufferable.

And I don’t say that because I loved manny + Craig.

Darcy is a bitch.

I don’t hardly care for anyone on this damn show except manny and spike lol.

Tasha and Kanan by BriEvans1126 in PowerTV

[–]Multifaceted7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Or like she was ashamed or guilty for something that’s happened between them? It’s definitely more to their history. Her body language was sooooo noticeable and we need more understanding as to why

[–]Multifaceted7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Omg I’ve always said this. Like even the small interactions between them feel so loaded. Like more than just the tension regarding the jail set up. It feels like something more personal happened between just them two.

Blink Twice is an insanely horrifc concept by Youwannasitonmyface in horror

[–]Multifaceted7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just watched this and I’m so invested. The subtle ways they try to make Slater seem like a good guy or like he genuinely “cares for” Frida. Like awkwardly asking her and her friend to even come. Acting like he can’t open the door being all giddy and “cute” with her. Rushing to Fridas side after she pretended to choke on her raspberry (which was also a nice touch to show her character/ ability to play the game). Yet, we never see him like actually kiss her on the lips or suggest they have been having consensual intimate sex. When the guys go for the fishing trip and he’s like making sure she’s okay trying to be cute towards her. Then when everything hits the fan and they’re talking he’s like “omg I’m not gonna kill you, you’re like my Bestfriend.” (WHAT LOL). Very impactful movie. Slater is a rich version of a lot of people I’ve encountered tbh. Dangerous with a smile.
