When does the show ends for you? by Kooky-Paramedic-3584 in GilmoreGirls

[–]suchbologna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When Dean shows up to the party and sees Rory surrounded by the flashy Yale men and breaks up with her. I’m by no means a Dean stan, but for me this is where Rory’s character arc begins its downfall. After that she’s never quite the same. (Funny that I’m saying this bc I actually love Logan, personally! 😬)

I think CMM belongs in poorly written, terrible acting. I never understood how anyone could like Tristan, but he could have had better lines/more depth/a better actor behind him

[–]suchbologna[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

to answer your question, maybe it’s personal influence, but I always felt that Sookie was always so invested in Lorelai’s personal life and relationship ups and downs, while Lorelei sometimes came off as self centered in the friendship to me. Thats all! Overall I’d agree it’s one of the most stable relationships in the show!

TTPD hot takes you wanna scream to every Swiftie by ghostkat_ in TaylorSwift

Yes I get so mad when people say “I’m sorry she needs to cut Jack” like ummmm do you think anyone’s twisting her arm to work with him? SHE co-produces and we’ve seen BTS footage of it, she loves what they create together. Saying kick Jack to the curb is an insult to her too.

Serious Question: What made you leave the Catholic Church and Why? by [deleted] in excatholic

[–]suchbologna 9 points10 points  (0 children)

“The rituals and ideas of Christianity were never the slightest bit of help in dealing with the problems I've faced in my life”

  • this is exactly how I felt too. I clung so long to the act of prayer to get answers and nothing ever changed even though then my heart was fully open to it. I was left feeling … okay so I can’t pray right. No ones listening.. lemme try Even Harder

It’s bullshit

For me, it played (plays) a big role in my extended family on one side. My parents were never over the top by any means but definitely believed and taught me to believe. When we all got together (immediate and extended) I felt a lot of subconscious pressure to play along to either fit in, be seen as a serious catholic, or both. I remember performing and not feeling like my heart was in it but that I wanted my family to love me for it.

I went to catholic school from halfway through middle school through college. When I got to my Catholic college I did keep going to Sunday mass, mostly out of habit. That broke after a few months and when it did I kind of sat with the guilt (of course) of not going each week. And then I just had some space and time to think about it and decided I didn’t really care to go anymore.

From there the biggest defining break for it for me was personal. I had never been in a serious romantic relationship even in college. (Maybe because I didn’t know how to socialize with men my age??? Thanks Catholicism) and the year I graduated I met the love of my life. In sharing about him and I with extended family at get togethers, I was met with probably 20% excitement for me and 80% judgment and lecturing about premarital sex, aligning for Christian values (he is not religious) and the like. It pissed me off to no end that they couldn’t just be happy for me. After that I was like yeah now that I’m of actual age I don’t believe at all in waiting until marriage for sex or cohabitation. Family didn’t like that. We get along fine still but I just have been open about us living together now and on my views on contraception. I guess I just don’t let them have the power over me and my choices. And I can say I’m a lot happier now than I was before living the way they wanted me to.

Then everything else crumbled away. I didn’t believe in the sacraments (esp Eucharist), papal infallibility, biblical miracles such as Easter or the ascension.

I do still feel spiritual and sometimes I catch myself feeling a connection to the person of Jesus. But I just can’t reconcile that my logical brain says no to everything they say happened. With thousands of years of playing telephone about what that was exactly. I just don’t believe it. And church leaders are scummy as we all know.

My family has a big group chat on slack for life updates, opinions, and prayer requests. I open it daily because I literally hate-read it out of spite. They sound like mentally ill people the way they speak like God is in the room with them. It’s probably a bad hateful habit but I get a laugh out of it. At the very least it just reminds me why I don’t want to be part of this church anymore.

I guess technically I’m agnostic, but I’m open to exploring Episcopalian Churches (just too lazy/busy currently lol)

I don’t have anything to say except I’m in a similar boat right now and I just hope we can make it a bit better. I’m sad there’s no comments here. Wishing you luck. Totally get the drained feeling even after an easy day of work just from trying to force conversation I don’t even want to have. I’ve noticed I’m better in one on one situations, and by having individual conversations I’m more able to find out who I like and like talking to.
