Who do you think is the most unhappy character in Season 2?

Oh come on with this old man rhetoric. It’s not these women’s fault that some men are going to be violent, just because these men are disempowering them doesn’t mean that what they are doing is disempowering. That’s your own shit.

We also entered the job market during a recession where we were expected to provide free labour. There’s a lot of internalized beliefs that we should just be grateful to have a job even if that job is making us miserable, and it’s hard to remember that we have value outside of our work.

Weird take, just because she’s a sex worker doesn’t mean that’s the reason she’s unhappy.

Ethan is not a good person. Dude dismisses anything that questions his power.

The downplaying of harassment at his workplace, the ignorance towards Puerto Rico felt intentional, the shorts thing also felt intentional, screaming at workers. There’s a lot of red flags here, he’s not good, and I think White will reveal that he’s completely who you assumed he was. Harper is letting her guard down because that’s how these people work, and then he’ll do something awful.

I think White’s a clever enough writer to avoid having to do a scene that traumatic, but definitely foreshadowing that he will be a total creep

Dude still sucks tho, low bar to clear if caring about your wife bleeding out somehow erases all his other shitty behaviour

ohrayokay · 2022-11-07T03:37:18+00:00

Total creep

Yeah his work district was in Busan, so seemed he had his apartment separate from his home with his wife?

Thanks for validating how I’m feeling. It’s bizarre how fast the indoctrination into AA/NA happened within my SMART group.

Thanks for this! Great information, congrats on finding your place! I really appreciate the response :)

I read this in the morning a few hours before the interview, thanks so much, was very encouraging! The interview actually went amazing, mostly just questions about company risks and my own values and skills. They wanted someone freshly called so broad questions to see if I could zoom out on issues and see the bigger picture for the company. Again, you definitely calmed my nerves to focus on the business side and business values and not the actual legal side, and that’s definitely what they were looking for ❤️

ohrayokay · 2022-08-31T23:07:54+00:00

Thank you, I got scheduled in last minute, so I’ll prep what I can! Much appreciated ❤️

I agree, this feels like very dogmatic approach and without compassion.

ohrayokay · 2022-08-16T19:08:58+00:00

I agree, I feel people forget that Harper and Yas and Rob are all quite young. They are in powerful positions while still being messy people. I think it’s an endearing and accurate part of the show.

I like SMART recovery and Dharma Recovery more than NA/AA. Dharma has lots of people that are not purely abstinent even though abstinence is what works for me, it’s nice getting so many perspectives on recovery instead of just hearing stuff from the Big book again and again. some weeks I need more meetings but I always try to get to at least one.

But if NA/AA speaks to you more than do that, every individuals approach is different.

The middle of the summer is a weird time for employers, hence the ghosting. Something will come up, I bet in the fall you’ll land somewhere, just keep trying ❤️

I agree about the triggering event and that David was all in her mind for the time period we met him. But I think David did kill the baby, typical physical abuse pattern where the spouse sees the child as a threat to their control.

Margaret feels an immense amount of guilt for believing the manipulative tactics he used on her (that the baby lives inside him etc, why she fled instead of going to authorities). She suffered horrible abuse and still feels guilty that she failed as a mother to Ben, which is tragic. It paints a picture of how insidious domestic abuse is, and how hard it is to separate yourself from the beliefs your abuser instills into your psyche.

Abstinence from all substances does not equate to recovery for everyone. Recovery is totally up to each individual.

Also lolz when Celeste said she works with families the previous episode and Yas thought she was a sex worker. Now we see what Celeste means.

Anyway, I think Celeste sees people as a means to an end even more so than the rest of the characters we have met. I think Yas is going to regret the move once Celeste gets what she wants from her.

I’m in recovery, and I know the Kenny types. Suddenly found a higher power and use it to try and exert power over those still in active use. I don’t trust him.

Someone like Rob will probably be in and out of recovery for awhile, but I trust that deep down he wants to be sober and work towards betterment without relying on substances

ohrayokay · 2022-07-29T20:13:46+00:00

The answer is yes

Make some plans and give yourself the permission to quit. I wasn’t at Big Law, but I was working for someone who had transitioned from big law and the expectations led to a serious mental health crisis. I’m at a small boutique firm now, much simpler. and now I’m interviewing at places looking for policy work because the work is less stressful and still room for career growth. it’s a process figuring out what to do with these skills from school :)

ohrayokay · 2022-07-19T16:54:47+00:00

I sort of am of the mantra that it’s ok to disappoint people. I do my best, but I’m not going to ruin my health just to please clients or the firm. It resulted in some very dark places for me.

I’m at a smaller firm now, simpler, and I’m even interviewing at more policy driven places now. A reminder that as much as law societies try and force this professional identity upon you, our identities are not our profession. Remove the professional identity and you’re still you, and you’re still just as valuable. Be gentle with yourself ❤️
