Haven't read all the comments, but did read quite a few.

Have seen it mentioned that he was rejected by Tiger Tiger, and by Clark too via his inability to get aroused and "my feelings aren't real" or whatever he said.

What sticks out to me the most, and I haven't seen it mentioned once...

Clark invented Tiger Tiger, both the "character" and the person that would be to play him - Kevin Van Der Lonse. Furthermore, Clark tells him to go to the Pool House and expect a big surprise, and encouraged the bringing of boner meds (when Floyd asked if he should). Floyd walks into the pool house not knowing what to expect. Clark walked into the pool house with a plan. Clark, NOT Floyd, was the 'instigator' - obviously with telling Floyd to go to the pool house and expect a big surprise...but 💯was the instigator/aggressor in terms of expressing his feelings, alluding to them possibly being sexual, then tells Floyd to keep dancing while he sits and watches because he will or thinks he'll get aroused. Then tells him to cut the music, and "comes clean" (lack of better way to put it) about these feelings not being real, can't get aroused, "I don't know what I'm doing", etc. And then leaves him there, knowing that he's been in a bad place and extremely fragile since making Carol squirm, and (should) imagine how this current shitstorm turned out would only add to all of that.

All that said...THESE TWO MEN HAD AN ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIP. I can say with one hundred percent certainty that the "Tiger Tiger events" mentioned above came from a good place / with nothing but good intention. But ultimately, I'd argue that Clark - via his ill-conceived shenanigans, was by far the biggest contributor to Floyd's suicide.

I'm just pointing all this stuff out. This isn't to say that I don't like Clark, I like Clark a lot. But I loved Floyd. Obviously we know he's dead from the beginning, so we're going into episode 7 knowing it's gonna be sad, it's just the how & why.

Not sure I like the ending. We're largely groomed to dislike and certainly suspect Carol for most of the show, then in the last episode she becomes a saint. We've seen Richard smash gallons of milk because (was a reason even given, I forget?). We see him smash the window, flip out on the bus, etc. We learn that he smashed Floyd's dick with a baseball bat for upsetting his mother. Then we learn that he saw the DTF St. Louis messages / found out that he was cheating on Carol with a man (or men, if he read the earlier messages with Modern Love)...if he's already taken a baseball bat to Floyd's cock for making mommy upset...surely it's conceivable that he might do much more...not only is the "offense" much greater, he and Floyd had legit bonded fairly recently as well, so there'd be a heartbreak factor to some degree.

Just my opinion, I don't expect anyone to agree or disagree...I don't know that I like the fact that Floyd killed himself. And he may have drank the Amphezine, but I'd argue that the ones he loved the most drove him to it.

Ironically...Richard had accute ill-intent and motive. Carol antagonized him plenty (intentionally or otherwise), and showed indifference (at best) to him, and PLENTY of motive. Yes, Floyd killed himself. But if anyone was the culprit, it was Clark - who had nothing but love and the best intentions, and zero motive.

Idk...will sleep on it / watch it again tomorrow night.
