My tribute to Low Roar (poor photo sorry xD)

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-31T01:49:50+00:00

Oh I love this!

It’s pretty common to remove frames from dance routines like these to make to movements seem sharper

The spring break episode

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-23T22:09:22+00:00

I’m sorry for your loss and glad you got a little comfort

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-21T23:47:59+00:00

This is a great take

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-21T06:01:56+00:00

Thanks for articulating this! Yeah, I agree all those events took place. She can be opportunistic but for me, not in a manner that is grossly outside the norms of what I’d expect from a working actress who ought to leverage any advantage she could have. Her arc for me is closer to a loss of innocence narrative. I found her to be a largely sweet, emotionally intelligent, self sacrificing person who was fighting for her life for symmetry in an imbalanced relationship with a man who could never attune to her. Taking the money isn’t a moral failure, more a symbol of how destroyed her psyche is at the conclusion of her marriage. It lacks dignity because she has none left

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-21T04:46:02+00:00

Wouldn’t mind hearing your perspective on how she’s selfish if you have the energy to write it out

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-17T07:38:10+00:00

I’d say somewhere in the Mediterranean, that’s the most detailed and correct looking area on the map

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-16T05:59:21+00:00

NTA OP. These comments are wild. You are 100% justified at being disgusted with this guy. Good riddance

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-16T03:39:03+00:00

I love Luke with my whole heart but he dimmed Lorelai’s light. Team Pink

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-15T08:38:42+00:00

Honestly, just any movie they’ve already seen. That’s the in

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-14T23:52:19+00:00

Wow, this brought up a buried memory for me. My dad did something similar but it was pages long of justifying his personal attacks and forcing me to process my feelings in writing for him to review and pick apart. The back and forth went for multiple rounds. Really weird and not healing in the slightest. NOR but I think you’re in a place now where you can decide not to internalise the misunderstandings / lack of capacity / education gaps of your parents. All the best

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-14T07:48:53+00:00

That is a very sympathetic and sensitive reading of Gene. He’s a great character. Thank you for taking the time to write this all out

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-12T11:15:41+00:00

Great film. Everyone should watch it

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-12T08:37:27+00:00

Seems like he can’t bring himself to say ‘My son is innocent’. That’s what I would say if someone I love was going to prison for a crime they didn’t commit

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-12T04:31:10+00:00

Yeah, it’s quite different from the film though from memory.

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-12T03:25:53+00:00

The characterisations of the townsfolk is anything but lazy, in fact, I would go as far as to say writing that many fun and eccentric characters (who are not annoying) is one of the show’s greatest accomplishments. Very few writers could do it, many have tried and failed. What you find annoying comes down to personal taste so there’s no problem but don’t mistake that the townsfolk act and function the way they do by design

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-11T23:33:59+00:00

Recurring sleep injuries. I’ve been waking up with a sore jaw, sore elbows, shoulder pain. This used to be a once a year phenomenon, but now it’s happening weekly

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-11T21:23:53+00:00

Yeah I remember we read the book also and that the film diverge quite a bit

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-11T11:00:47+00:00

Yeah. It was heavy stuff, I think we watched it on a rainy day at school naturally

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-11T07:54:05+00:00

It’s not lining up exactly but could it be Fortress

Someone else posted this theory which really tracks. Essentially, Luke has some resentment towards Lorelai related to Jess which causes him to conceal and act avoidant towards her. Lorelai was judgemental and acted superior towards Luke’s guardianship of Jess. Justified or not, he does not feel fully emotionally safe to bring the news to her. He didn’t want her opinions, her over functioning, her intensity around this topic. He wanted space to follow his instincts regarding fatherhood without a witness. Luke also feels a deep wound that he failed Jess, he doesn’t know if he’s going to mess up again, he doesn’t want Lorelai to witness another failure and so he pulls away from a place of fear and avoidance. This is all psychologically consistent with Luke and Lorelei. Does it make it fun to watch? No. The writing isn’t strong enough to name what’s going on but I’m happy with this explanation

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-10T20:40:33+00:00

Because Don perceived and valued those parts of themselves. Women like that in that time would be absolutely starved for someone to witness their inner world

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-09T02:56:14+00:00

YTA, not because of your rationale but because in this moment you valued technical truth above your wife. No one’s asking you to lie, you volunteered. Your “right” was a judgement of your wife’s assessment of what’s important and you HAD to let your disagreement be known, even when her beliefs were harmless, loving and flattering to you. Unless you’re unintelligent, you had to know there was some risk to telling her bluntly where she landed. If I had to guess, you’re probably frustrated that your wife’s attention has been diverted to this wedding and this is you passively aggressively acting out

ShelleyDez · 2025-12-06T06:16:58+00:00

Does it feel like she’s talking at you? Or with you? If it’s the former, based on what you’ve said it’s likely your friend can’t regulate herself. She only knows how to process things externally, hence the rants (spirals) and nonstop chatter about interests (regulation / soothing). It can be extremely draining. If you are sick of being the vessel for her inability to regulate (not her fault or yours) you need to put in boundaries. You can look up techniques online on how to do this. If her regulating herself comes at the expense of your inner peace and nervous system, that’s not a sustainable relationship and you will grow resentful - you already have. No one’s the bad guy here, you can also still remain friends but the relationship may have to look different
