Liz Friedman wrote an episode of this show and was consulting producer on two.

Liz Friedman, as in co-executive-producer of 91 episodes of Xena: Warrior Princess.

No wonder this show is so freaking good.

Further questions from the finance team

I love characters who are like "I'm a terrible person" but when you look closer it's more like

"I adapted to survive something and now I don't know how to stop being that version of myself."

deadloch saying "there are no good cops" and "good people cannot work within the carceral system without compromising what makes them good" and "the compromises good cops make hurt marginalised people just as much as the actions of intentionally bad cops" and then actually following through on those statements by having dulcie and eddie quit rather than continue to uphold a broken and harmful and corrupt system (even with good intentions) is actually so powerful we can retire the procedural completely i think

one of my creative writing professors once said that to evaluate a work as good or not, first you ask what the work is attempting to do, and then you evaluate how well it does it. and this is how to judge everything from critical essays to romance novels to snack packaging to theory tracts.

Incorrect Supergirl quotes 19/?

[future-crab]

The key to writing good fanfiction is to harbor a deeply humiliating desire, and the trick there is that even pretty basic and societally-accepted desires like “being held” and “being wanted” CAN and WILL be humiliating if they’re intense enough. Become so estranged from human connection that the idea of someone playing with your hair fills you with yearning so deep you feel like you’re going to throw up and you will write some banger fanfiction. It might have some other consequences too but idrk about that.

the difference between romantic love and platonic love is mostly intent

[beloved-child-of-the-house]

love lives in the cultivation of it!!! if you want a relationship, any relationship to thrive you have to build it and grow it and nurture it. you have to be honest and respectful and vulnerable and affectionate. there are some things most people only do with romantic partners, but that’s mostly a matter of taste and custom. people have sexual encounters with friends. people have love affairs without ever having sex. people co-habitat with friends. people live in separate dwellings from their spouses. love isn’t a feeling or an instinct. it’s a sustained, mutual effort. ultimately your relationship is what y’all mutually decide it is and what y’all mutually make the effort to create together.
