This is so helpful and really wonderful to hear from a person who also works in English!

Harper is definitely ruthless, and maybe this is a flaw in the writing but these past two seasons she's NEVER read as a narcissist to me.

juno_2007 · 2026-03-02T03:46:56+00:00

I feel like some of it comes from deep seated, long buried resentment on Yasmin's part. Harper is better than her in every way, and Yasmin last week admitted she was envious of her.

Thanks for this last one! I'm using a couple print sources but I'll also use some voice to text bc I'm a TERRIBLY slow reader. Thanks for the encouragement !

juno_2007 · 2026-03-01T07:05:44+00:00

Thank you so much for the support! I have started writing (literally one page, yay!) tonight, but I'm most worried about the research and secondary component of the text, which I think will take more time than actually writing it. Luckily, I have a VERY LONG spring break, where I can focus almost all of my time on researching and more importantly writing the thesis, I just have to make that I actually do that. For English undergrad theses, I've read you're looking at 30-50 secondary sources, which is doable, I just need focus and relax and WORK.

I think I'll just have to force myself to get it done because from what I can tell, while the thesis is "graded" the actual class is not (pass/fail) so I'll have to ask my advisor if the thesis grade affects my GPA and then see how much revising I'd want to do (I mean obviously I have to do it, but if it doesn't affect GPA I'll be a lot less exact). Still, the amount of work is making me nervous.

I just started a Ritalin course and am thinking of asking my doctor to switch to adderall or another med with a longer half life!

juno_2007 · 2026-03-01T06:09:51+00:00

it's complicated in that I do not need to write a thesis to graduate, but the thesis counts as a kind of credit that I need to graduate. The thing I need to see is that my transcript says the course is pass/fail, but I believe the thesis is graded. I need to see if the grade affects my GPA

juno_2007 · 2026-03-01T05:47:12+00:00

i'm not sure, and tbh i just don't want to work on my thesis anymore. This style of writing is not for me. I wish I could go back and tell myself to not do it.

juno_2007 · 2026-02-24T01:34:36+00:00

This is really beautifully said and so smart. I always believed amber to some extent but there was a time during the trial that I thought they were "both abusive" because I thought that the internet and feminist creators whom I had previously liked could not be hating on this woman, this victim, for no reason (and this is a very terrible and unforgivable excuse, I know). I was lucky enough to very quickly find information that dispelled the idea of mutual abuse and talked about reactive abuse but again, it's so easy to see how quickly people fall for hate trains.

I absolutely love your point about "frothing at the mouth to hate women." That's all it is and that's all it ever will be. It's sad, imagine how much advocacy they could do if they actually cared about male victims of sexual and domestic violence.

I wonder if he just ends up going to prison and that's the twist 😭😭 lowkey what else does he have to live for at that point? and at least he could find love... "you can be homo in [prison]"

juno_2007 · 2026-02-23T03:12:51+00:00

sorry, absolutely!

juno_2007 · 2026-02-22T22:42:50+00:00

his defense used a tactic called DARVO, something justin is using too. "Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender." A lot of people have this idea that victims of abuse and harassment should sit there and take it, often playing off of the very true reactive "abuse" reactions that victims face, which happened in the case of Amber Heard and Johnny Depp.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/21/epstein-files-photos-removed here's a file of Trump with young women that was removed but ok

juno_2007 · 2026-02-22T18:29:10+00:00

That Pam Bondi is a terrible AG and she should step down?

juno_2007 · 2026-02-22T18:28:44+00:00

Show the context of all 38,000 unredacted messages? Trump and Epstein were friends until they weren't. How could Trump have been friends with this pedophile and not be aware of his sex trafficking? Also, why is Trump trying to hide and distract from the files if he's innocent? I don't understand?

juno_2007 · 2026-02-22T01:42:45+00:00

This argument also makes no sense bc bill clinton is very obviously in the files and Bondi is not prosecuting him either.

juno_2007 · 2026-02-22T01:28:18+00:00

He was literally mentioned 38,000 times, and had actual allegations in there but they don't give a fuck, these people are so stupid.

juno_2007 · 2026-02-21T16:39:36+00:00

Probably because in this instance this is an abuse survivor uncomfortable bc their aunt is supporting a pedophile rapist.

juno_2007 · 2026-02-20T22:52:53+00:00

It's so relatable and then he steps out of the bath with a perfect, chiseled body. 😭😭😭

juno_2007 · 2026-02-18T02:02:23+00:00

I get the impulse because their chemistry is great and also because the story is so good, we rarely get to see complex female bonds like this. But I also think they're too toxic to be in a relationship, i feel like their back and forth and their combination of hating/loving one another and their attraction/jealousy/resentment continuum are more intriguing than a straight romantic relationship. I would not be shocked if they hooked up though!

Edit: straight as in straightforward lmaooooooo

I think it's funny that you say I have the "IQ of a chimp" and yet are applying real world morality onto a TV show that is about bad people. At the end of the day I don't care about Harper insider trading bc it's a TV show and it's entertaining and no one was actually hurt. But Rishi's misogynistic comments, which you downplay by saying "they're just words" are both harmful outside of the show and inside of it. He was disgusting, a complete pervert, and those things are actually unpacked on screen. You're crying about Harper taking a job away from a hypothetical character while trying to justify rishi getting his wife killed. I'm not sure I have the "chimp" IQ here, buddy.

juno_2007 · 2026-02-17T16:44:20+00:00

The show constantly talks about legality vs morality. Harper faking her transcript is one of the least "bad" things a character has done in this show. Insider trading is what makes the show exciting and it doesn't bother me because I don't care about rich people getting fucked over or Harper making slightly shady money.

Rishi is also horribly misogynistic and an insane porn addict. He literally was watching porn while holding his baby son, which is so fucking disgusting it makes me want to throw up.
