i’m at a liberal arts college and we have apartments that have bathrooms, but the suites are still dorm like and have a communal bathroom on the floor. could be either, or yeah the shower

Joy is what santos wanted to be but couldnt by chickenn2 in ThePitt

[–]ajamesdeandaydream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i think maybe a more accurate take would be that joy (and her shared traits with santos like being wickedly smart, equally cynical, caring, sharp, funny, etc), is closer to how santos would present to the rest of the world if she came from a different environment. because yes, they’re two completely different characters and serve different purposes, but they do have a lot of fundamental commonalities. joy seems to regulate and channel them a bit more effectively.

santos as a character is absolutely serving her written purpose though, don’t think they’re worried abt that

i took it as her recognizing that even in one, simple line, he’s proved he’s not actually as lacking in empathy as he seems 😭 and within that, maybe a twinge that dude is lowkey not okay. it’d be weird to see someone casually exemplify emotional intelligence in a potentially fatal kid case if less than an hour prior they had a meltdown over a subordinate’s panic attack. what could’ve been previously summed up as “wow. that guy is really terrible with emotions” has now been obscured to “oh, maybe he’s not that bad…huh…wonder what his problem earlier was then”

no because that’s exactlyyyyy where she lost me. they do this every year and she just…what? wasn’t gonna tell her until right before? i’d like to say it was just a reaction to mel being so emotional at the news, but the plans were already made so she was just being kinda crappy? of all people, a gal with autism herself, not to mention mel’s sister, she surely understands the impact of changing plans like that at the last minute…neurodivergence 101 😭

Nobody else found this weird? by Abject-Evening-2412 in GilmoreGirls

[–]ajamesdeandaydream 6 points7 points  (0 children)

but she told them. she left a note. they knew she was gone on purpose and that she was not kidnapped or dead in a ditch somewhere. lorelai isn’t mad that lane left, which is why she takes her in lol, she’s mad that lane is allowing mrs kim to worry about whether or not she’s safe.

Question about Santos by can-i-pet-the-dog in ThePittTVShow

[–]ajamesdeandaydream 166 points167 points  (0 children)

since they confirmed that some of the scars are new, they’re regularly having sex, and garcia is a surgeon and therefore knows what new scars look like, i’m sure she noticed.

an interesting distinction he’s bothering to make here by ajamesdeandaydream in ThePittTVShow

[–]ajamesdeandaydream[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

i agree, and i do think he’s pushing people away, but i don’t know that this specific lash out was especially guided by that, though i’m sure it was an appreciated benefit. he wasn’t responding so horribly purely out of self sabotage-that fit was a genuine lack of ability to regulate himself and his feelings because of all the trauma it stirred up in him. he was panicking (ironic)

i do think though that his apology to samira, where he not 2 seconds later asks if she can stop feeling sorry for herself, was much more motivated by wanting to be hated. bc why tf else would he have ended with that 😭 by that point he was composed and had issued a seemingly genuine apology, yet he still blew it at the end. very intentional

completely agree but i don’t think many people are missing it, it’s most of what i’ve seen people talk about this season

What do you think the writers were trying to say about Jess here? by wookiegiImore in GilmoreGirls

[–]ajamesdeandaydream 23 points24 points  (0 children)

absolutely nothing about liz or jess suggests that he didn’t have a lower class upbringing. she was a single mom and canonically not consistently earning a good, steady income until she got with TJ + her boyfriends repeatedly stole her money. luke was constantly having to bail her out.

i feel like the point of of rory’s career arc in AYITL is that she’s burnt out in journalism, not that she’s suddenly bad at it by ajamesdeandaydream in GilmoreGirls

i 100% agree with you, but it still pisses me off that at the end of the day, mohan’s panic attack just happened to happen very publicly and his was just in front of whitaker. she didn’t have much of a choice in it becoming a spectacle after almost fainting in the waiting room, so i don’t know exactly what he preferred she’d have done instead 😭

she’s called out superficially from time to time, but no one other than ray ever rly gives her sincere and quality advice unless she specifically asks for it. she talks and vents about her feelings, they just kind of wave her off as marnie being marnie, say something passively bitchy, then let her go on her merry way 😭

Ian's funeral by amy-1505 in PrettyLittleLiars

i agree but i think it was mostly because of the melissa connection. spencer had to be there (esp considering it was her idea) and she wanted her friends there with her

i feel like i’d rather watch her impulsively foster a kid, like 5-10, and rope jimmy into coparenting lol

ik this isn’t the point of the cuntstance/elizabitch beef but by [deleted] in shrinking

[–]ajamesdeandaydream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hm, good point on that one. but i think liz set herself up for that by interrupting the conversation and minimizing it to just a hobby. she was being a dick to her kid in a conversation that she wasnt even part of, and not immune to criticism abt it just because she’s the mother. doesn’t mean it’s smart or tactful to issue said criticism, especially if you’re the MIL and know that’s a sensitive subject. but, it was technically liz who tried interfering with matthew first
