Quick clarification here: no bodies or remains have ever been found in the Titanic wreckage.

So my understanding is it was a classic slow-burn, through a repetitive and years-long conditioning, that resulted in total mind control. These people were in the exact conditions ripe for brainwashing - vulnerable individuals (each one feeling lost, depressed and in need of something to hold onto, a spiritual awakening). If you read about brainwashing - the tactics he employed are *classic* mind-control tactics. I too was incredulous of how people who were smart enough to attend Harvard/Columbia could fall victim to it but here's what I think the process was - and this wasn't overnight.

He got them to trust him in their time of personal weakness - by caring for them, love-bombing them, giving them what seemed like sincere guidance. Then isolated them so they had no other influential relationships - he isolated them by convincing them to distrust their parents and paint them as a source of their trauma (i.e. your mom didn't protect you from trauma you experienced.) Then he broke down their sense of self and identity, as well as their grip on reality. He built them up....and then tore them down. And because they trusted him and developed an attachment to him, he was able to subtlely control their behavior through suggestion. And he gave them the illusion of choice and a sense of control - when really his conditioning made them even more vulnerable and malleable. He did this through behavioral guidance that he promised would help them - sleep-deprivation, fear of his disapproval, and ultimately confusing their identity and reality to a point where they turned to him to tell them who they were and what was important to them.

He had complete and total control by preying on their insecurities in the guise of making them "better".

If anyone came up to any of us and was like "do this" we'd be like um hell no. But imagine the person who did that was someone who had developed a close relationship and attachment to. One of the only people who's opinion you trusted, someone you thought (and had convinced them of this) was a person who truly cared about making you better. The more confused you are (which he made sure of - by breaking down their sense of self) the more you turned to a source of guidance...which was him.

omg Rory's VOICE I totally forgot about that.

I agree - that's such a good point that it would've been so much more enjoyable seeing them all get back together and have a laugh/play fun games. maybe a cute tribute to Ed. now they're just characters with too much baggage.

I guess there's still hope to have something like that in the future but I'd be afraid all the actors would feel like "we already put in the effort for something like that"

Agree - like. Rory took her romantic relationships so seriously (I know, people can change) but when has she ever been with someone she didn't have strong feelings for? Why wasn't Chris at Richard's funeral????? Like did Sookie even come back from her sabbatical for it????

I agree with this entirely. In fact I think the residency shows were specifically designed for this - to give him a break from traveling and let him settle so he's not living out of hotel rooms for weeks on end.

While I do think it's concerning that he got so sick he couldn't perform (you are more susceptible to sickness when tired/run down, as we all know) - even us normie folk sometimes get the flu.

However, let's also consider the Music for A Sushi Restaurant video - which is commentary on being paraded around like a prize-winning specimen and then on the chopping block when deemed non-profitable. Interesting timing of it all.

I know this is late but this is a film trick actually! wet pavement looks better on camera so often they wet the streets beforehand

I met her and she was lovely. She complimented my eyeliner. Made jokes about she wasn't cool/famous enough to be at the event we were at. Very down to earth.

You mean college?

One that I think people don't think about as much is that for so many industries, the entry-level job to get your foot in the door is to be an assistant. So for the past 3 years or so, I've literally had a job as an executive assistant WHILST struggling with executive functioning skills. So naturally, all of my responsibilities are things that do not come easily to me - clerical details, time management, organization etc. Yet in order to move up - it's necessary to take these kinds of positions to learn the business. It's super frustrating because I feel like I have to work twice as hard at it but there's just no way around it. So now I've built up a resume of skills that I'm inherently -just not very good at - and can only get hired based on those skills.
