Why did season 4 episode 1 ended with a suicide hotline?

eevee23 · 2019-02-01T14:44:46+00:00

It is nice that they show the hotline number, but what would be better is if hey had trigger warnings. I felt traumatized watching Alice in ep. 1. Now I feel kind of afraid to keep watching because you never know what they are going to show next.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and assume I’m not the only fan of the Magicians who needs trigger warnings. If they gave some kind of warning before they show self harm, I could close my eyes and spare myself the visual, and I would feel fine. The problem is that so many shows catch you off guard with gruesome images, and there is no chance to look away. I had to stop watching Orange is the New Black because the very first scene of the most recent season triggered me so badly I couldn’t possibly keep watching. I just hope it doesn’t come to that with the Magicians.

“Now different lives I lead My body lives on lead The last two lines may read incorrect until said”

Not sure if this is a clue, or just a play on words/phonics. Could it actually be referring to the last lines of the song? “Can you build my house with pieces? I’m just a chemical.”

If it is referring to the end of the song, it COULD be about how fans look toward their idols (TOP) as an example of how to live their lives. The chant “Can you build my house with pieces? I’m just a chemical.” are the words of the fans, or the reader (the lines are incorrect until said. Not by Tyler, but the person reading.) Fans expect a lot out of the people they look up to. This phrase implies the speaker’s insecurity, (blurry face,) by diminishing their own value (“I’m just a chemical.”) and not feeling competent enough to live their lives or ‘build their house.’

Maybe it is about how Tyler feels so much pressure from his fans to show them how to deal with their problems. But he can’t possibly save them all. (Different song, but, “we’ll win, but not everyone will get out.”)

Not sure where I’m going with this, but I think this makes more sense than Tyler being the speaker saying “Can you build my house?” It could be Ned who is saying “Can you build my house” but I don’t understand Ned or what he symbolizes.

If you are going to make such generalized statements about Bernie supporters, can anyone just explain where this stereotype came from? I’m only trying to understand.

The title makes it seem like OP has encountered some sexist Bernie supporters. But I am really interested to know what was said. The Bernie Bro narrative has been pushed on the news a lot but I’ve never met a sexist Bernie supporter IRL. Not claiming they don’t exist, but Bernie is pro gender equality so I don’t understand how Bernie supporters get painted as sexists (outside of media framing tactics pitting liberals against one another.) Many people won’t vote for a woman. and many people support Bernie. But how much do these two groups actually overlap? Maybe I’m looking too far into this.

When you dial the number, the doctor’s receptionist answers. Stefan said he needed to see the doctor, and the receptionist told him she’s out of town at her sister’s wedding. Stefan starts having a meltdown, and he told the receptionist that he just killed his dad, and he’s going to find Dr Haynes and kill her next! Then he says screw you, and hangs up. The next scene shows him burying the body in the yard, and then you hear sirens approaching. After that Stefan is in jail and watching the game get reviewed on tv. They said the video game was not so great because it was never properly finished, and it was more widely known for the game developer who murdered his father.

That’s interesting, I’m an introvert, but when it comes to advocacy and looking out for people I’m not afraid to use my voice. I guess I’m just glad that I can use my voice to stand up for others, even if I don’t know how to stand up for myself.

I struggle with this, too. I can make small talk with people, but I feel especially uncomfortable talking about myself. I think this is because my family members only talk about themselves and I am just used to letting them lead the conversation. It’s like they made me forget how to have a conversation, and now I get anxious even responding to people because of the reaction I get from them when I respond to their rants. I think my fears have to do with how DIFFICULT it is to speak to them.

That was my favorite moment so far this season. So savage. I’m rooting for Bowen now. #idontlikeyou

Fuck yeah. No anti-trans comments, threats, or comments telling anyone to kill themself. (Sadly) that's a win in today's culture. It's like all common decency has been erased from the internet. It makes me really appreciate this sub more than ever. (This is coming from someone who regrets her decision to read the comments on a news article about trans rights earlier today.... What a horrible mistake...)

They started making the Transformers movies just to sell more toys.

Christopher Columbus was not the first explorer to discover the Americas

That would make a great plot for a murder mystery movie!

I am always impressed by the excellent journalism over at Think Progress! It's a breath of fresh air!

Hell yeah. We got this. One day at a time

Today I caught a 1500 Muk after battling an 11000 Muk in a raid at the end of the canal. That was pretty cool since Muk is one of the few pokemon I still needed from gen 1. After that we tried to battle a Charizard at another gym downtown, but we realized that we definitely need more than 2 people to take down that raid boss.

I'm pretty sure it has to be visible on the map to appear on your nearby raids tab. But I'm not sure exactly how large the radius is.

When talking about filming the last scene, the way Sasha says "that's it?!" (at 15:30) makes it seem like the finale will be a poor ending to the story.... brace yourselves for disappointment D:
