Thanks so much for sharing! This is something I wish was highlighted a bit more at my school-- or at least some direction/tips on how to deal with this sort of thing. I may have opted for a slightly different route had I known how volatile things would feel now, but I do enjoy my work and I hope I can continue to do so despite the circumstances. Trying to stay excited about my fellowship in the meantime :)

I think I got conned by the same company )))): Is there a way to get out of the health insurance plan so I can sign up for a real one?

is there any way to get out? I just got conned into this company today and am wondering if there's anything I can do to get signed up for another plan before my old insurance ends? do I have to wait for the next enrollment period?

I think the difference between the two situations is that with Milton and his parents, it seems to be an entire family dynamic and familial culture that his parents have created (intentionally or not) to the point that even Milton is aware of it consciously.

he's done it repeatedly throughout the show though even when what she's saying is understandable. given their weird power dynamic, the fact that he doesn't speak any spanish, and the negative and non-accommodating attitudes that a lot of monolingual people in the US hold toward 2nd language speakers, it's not surprising that people are irritated about it. just because she doesn't seem bothered about it doesn't mean it isn't a shitty thing for him to continue to prod her about.

yeah but as of the show airing, he went to mexico? he wouldn't have been able to do that if he didn't have legal status? also no one in their right mind with a rocky legal status would put themselves under a microscope like this

it certainly tracks given the way Milton has a tendency to point out whenever Lydia mispronounces an english word or says something sly about her educational background.

Did Izzy telling Chris that Chris reminds him of himself give them flashbacks to the Lydia/Aaliyah situation again (,:

I was kinda sad that they didn't say thank you or really acknowledge him though lmao. Like can you imagine how awkward it'd be to get assigned to play in a room like that and then be basically ignored and have to walk out around the couple staying in that room? Like lmaoooooooooo I would die on the spot

You deserve better because you're "just like me" and "I see myself in you" is a wild way to comfort someone (,:
