I understand why jacob made this change in the show but one of the hands down funniest parts of the book is in the club scene when ilya, mid-revenge crashout, tries to get the girl he was groping in front of shane to come back to his hotel with him and she pats him on the cheek and says aw that’s sweet babe but I’m here with my boyfriend he likes watching guys make out with me. lmfao that girl is having herself a fun n sexy night out at the club ilya rozanov CANNOT relate

actually have nothing funny or snarky to say about episode 5. this is just actually the most moving and heartwrenching television i've ever witnessed and it changed my life. it changed so many people's lives. sometimes i'm like the hr hype is lowkey a little too insane and then i watch this episode and i feel like the world writ large actually underreacted to how legendary this episode was. i too would actually soul bond with francois, hudson, and connor if i witnessed this live in the dead of winter.

like i'm sorry rr/tierney ate with this....... like the idea that someone else coming out being the impetous for you yourself taking a big leap of faith too is so like. what being gay and in a community is about. like you just literally don't know you aren't the only one if someone doesn't come out and do something so ridiculously brave. sorry i'm being so earnest about this because i'm writing this mid tears. like that thing jacob said about how scott's coming out needs to be outlandish and loud to contrast the like quiet and tender coming together of shane and ilya. the problem with this show is that it's literally that good.

damn sorry for not editing in a while I keep doomscrolling apartment listings (my lease ends in a month and no landlord is responding to my messages)

thought about it for a while and unfortunately I have to accept that actually troy would be a huge drake fan

[ellisonwongparty]

if i met shane in middle school he'd be really good at sports and the fastest runner in my grade and because of that i'd have such a horrible crush on him that he wouldn't reciprocate at all. and then i'd check facebook 15 years later gay married to a masc lesbian that looks suspiciously like him only to find out that he's being mass canceled by society for having sex with a guy who looks like he belongs in porn (complimentary).

myshane doesnt care about the ethical implications of climbing mt everest and he pays his way up for his 50th birthday

I love how the Role Model discusses redemption in a really covert manner.

Because lately it seems like people had forgotten that redemption isn't something a person can deserve or earn. It doesn't have any conditions beyond just trying to do better.

Troy choses to do better, he doesn't ask for premitionon or wait for someone to tell him to do it. He sees the opportunity (moving to a new team) and takes it. He puts in the work, even though it's difficult and awkward.

He apologizes and at no point does he expect to be forgiven. And even if he weren't forgiven, that wouldn't change his decision to be better, because he isn't doing it just to get people to forgive him. He genuinely wants to be a better person.

And that is ultimately all that matters, to do better even with little to no support, to do better even if not forgiven and to do better even if the rest of the world seems against it.
