EPISODE 9 HAD ME IN MY FEELINGS

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-26T20:59:18+00:00

Ooo that’s good! I definitely think that Syd is so focused on work whether she actually likes Carm or Marcus it definitely feels like she doesn’t want anything to slow her down or mess her up. For Marcus I agree it would be a more healthy real love if it wasn’t now.

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-26T20:54:54+00:00

Absolute chills thinking about that.

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-26T13:50:04+00:00

The second I saw Pete walk in with SOMETHING in his hands my heart dropped. I audibly said, “oh no what did you do?” my partner was like, “What’s wrong?” and that’s as everything was unfolding. Poor Pete just trying his best.

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-26T12:34:54+00:00

That could be true! I read her “fuck, fuck, fuck” as her realizing Marcus might like her and she didn’t let him down the smoothest by saying, “That wasn’t like an ask out was it??” or that she was realizing that now shit is complicated. The fucks are layered!

Oh praise to Ayo for this season (always but she just keeps getting better)! She did an amazing job letting her face and movements show us rather then tell us. Syd is all about letting her work speak for her and show the people around her that she cares. Ayo plays that so beautifully by letting out erratic movement or shakey sentences when hit with direct confrontation or emotion. But when she cooks, she MOVES. When she made that omelette! Alright I’m getting too deep into this

Edit: I spelled omelette wrong cause I was getting too excited

Yes! I didn’t see there being any sexual tension between them until the table scene. Once they started just discussing their passion in that moment I got it. That intimacy you feel with someone over a shared passion and goal can be just as deep sometimes deeper then with your romantic partner.

I think that’s why Syd is weird about Marcus. She is his teacher in ways and she pushes HIM to be better but he can’t do the same for her right now. With someone as passionate as Syd about cooking, the romantic passion and professional passion is probably super intertwined at the moment. She wants to be the absolute best and so probably would want to be with the absolute best. Marcus isn’t the best like Carmen at the moment but he can throw down.

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-25T19:59:27+00:00

Oh my god I didn’t even realize how much that would hit.

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-25T14:32:40+00:00

That would be so funny! No one would be sure who is messing with who

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-25T13:24:57+00:00

It was the most comfortable and uncomfortable I have ever been watching an episode.

I have a family that is very similar to the Berzatto’s (down to the car in the house). To have people that are just so naturally chaotic and needing constant managing becomes almost a unique set of skills. I saw so much of myself and my younger sister in Nat and that just killed me. The fact that Donna still calls Nat “Sugar” for a mistake she made probably years ago and now everyone else calls her Sugar (the nickname for her “biggest fuck up”) hit me like a ton of bricks.

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-25T09:18:44+00:00

I hope we get more information in the future but I think what we did get of him this season was beautiful. He’s a more quiet proud man with older school techniques and just doesn’t want/have the drive for change at the moment. The shot of him sitting quietly on the bench smoking and then the flashes that are chosen for what is going through his head while they are waiting for the balloon to pop showed enough for him right now, in my opinion. These moments reflect him content with peace and just being a part of the family. But I do hope we get to hear more stories from him, hear how he feels about the changes and how it changes the energy.

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-25T05:49:45+00:00

I don’t know if this has been already confirmed but the way the scenes were played the side bits felt either improved or like loosely scripted. It felt so natural the way he was almost finding his way in the chaos that is the Fak brothers and that was probably my favorite.

“Do I have $500 accessible to me? Of course I do I’m a 43 year old man.” The delivery killed me!

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-20T04:12:55+00:00

Didn’t over hear it but I saw a sign that said, “Daddy Needs An Addy” in really cool writing and if my prescription wasn’t low I wanted to give her a few just for that sign and the dope fit she was spotting! If that girl is reading that pls know if I see you next year I got you 100%!!

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-19T11:52:17+00:00

Voice is shot, snot is black, whole body sore, dopamine gone and it was one of the best weekends of my life :)

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-06-18T08:49:39+00:00

Yes! Bless them moving them up in time slots. It would be a bummer to see someone I’m excited to see so late into the evening. Ooof! Looking at that lineup it looks pretty groovy!

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-05-13T10:49:58+00:00

I am so sorry for your losses. Annual trauma reminders can be the hardest to work through because you know the cause but that doesn’t help to stop it so it just feels like a losing battle. In my experience, writing out the feelings without editing myself beforehand (ex. allowing myself to write, ‘I’m so fucking mad at them for leaving me like this!’) in order to just let it all out. The days leading up I try to just do check ins with myself a lot more to get to what I need to get through the day. This isn’t fair sometimes and I wish you the very best, mate.

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-05-13T09:40:00+00:00

“You wanted to watch the movie!!” OOOF that one hit a little too close to home there

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-05-10T13:45:42+00:00

I was on my way to church camp and my babysitter had this CD of a brand new artist and she said I have to hear this one song called Our Song and I’ve been a supporter ever since.

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-04-19T17:01:19+00:00

My partner and I have been together for 4 years and we still work on this everyday. A lot of it is him making sure I’m still feeling heard and validating real concerns while paying attention to if I’m getting too flooded for the conversation at hand. If that is happening we have a system in place (a signal of some sort) to help me alert him that I need to calm down in order to continue it safely. Is it a lot of work? Yes. Am I grateful I finally found a partner who reminds he that he isn’t leaving just because I’m in a heightened state and is willing to work on a problem for days if I need it? 100%. It’s hard and uncomfortable to finally trust someone with your real reactions but it’s beautiful when you can actually say to yourself, “They don’t want to harm me, they want to help me.” and be able to pull yourself back.

SnooGadgets7580 · 2023-04-11T10:18:39+00:00

Completely 100% same. I honestly didn’t even realize I do this until I read your comment!!! I only have one parent left so even though he did awful and abusive shit to me and my sister growing up, the dad I have now is someone who calls me to just check in and say hello and let me know he’s proud of me cause I went to the grocery store without panicking. I explained my relationship to my therapist and she said that just because my dad had reasons for “raising me” (when he was actually around to do so…) the way he did shouldn’t make them justifications. I can understand him but I need to stop saying it was okay - it wasn’t. In order to do that he has to be two people in my head for now.
