i highly recommend for women and girls to be intellectually curious and difficult to shame

"I don't want to be on meds for the rest of my life" couldn't be me. I will offer to personally suck off any team of scientists that manages to come up with a singular new medication for my condition that works and has no side effects I can't live with.

i’m still thinking about how they really should’ve switched mohan and javadi’s plot lines this season and had javadi working with orlando and the health insurance issues while having mohan working with roxie.

it’s never made sense to me that mohan, who’s a senior resident who’d specifically been researching care for marginalized patients, would know nothing about insurance. but it would make so much sense for javadi and i think that seeing her reaction orlando’s daughter, who seemed close to her age, talking about picking up extra shifts and crowdfunding to cover his medical care would’ve even more impactful to her character than seeing roxie’s sons affected by her dying. bc she really has lived with a lot of privilege and having another girl her age choosing to work more to support her parents would’ve still gotten her to that point of feeling guilt about wanting to be around her parents less.

and having mohan, who’s lost her father and is actively avoiding her mom’s calls, confronted with a terminal patient who’s choosing end of life care and seeing her interactions with her sons would’ve been so interesting through mohan’s pov. would she be judgmental bc her dad didn’t have that kind of choice? would it have had a bigger impact on how she was choosing to handle her mother’s calls?

they both ended up in the room when orlando came back too! i just feel like it would’ve been so interesting to see them flipped. idk mohan still could’ve even been consulting on orlando’s case as the senior resident and it would’ve been better than her just not knowing anything about the reality of health insurance…

robby not wanting to have two attendings keeps being so frustrating to me. because every single argument against him not wanting it can be so easily refuted.

"al hashimi can't handle it, what if there are two trauma's" how many people do you think have died because robby was the only attending on shift and couldn't handle it. especially because he also consistently has flashbacks that impact his work. they need two attendings regardless if she can work or not, they have needed it for years.

"he cares about his department, he wants more nurses" cool, he's right for that. he has not asked for another attending once. "oh but hiring doctors is expensive" so are hiring nurses but that doesn't stop him from asking for it. doctors being more expensive doesn't mean they aren't necessary. before adamson died, robby was the second attending. he knows that that works well, or else he wouldn't be so fucked up from having to do it all by himself. "gloria will never do it" that's not the problem though, i'm talking about him not wanting it. gloria disagreeing has not stopped him from asking what he needs.

"he's still upset because of adamson, he can't replace him" not bringing personal shit into work also counts for him btw. he has a responsibility to run this place. they need two attendings, they used to have two attendings!!! it hasn't been that way for six whole years and he's refused to do anything about it. and clearly, it's not been great for him. it's making him, the department, satisfaction scores, patient care, and mental health of the other doctors there worse.

while the 4th of july sucked; patient care wise, it went pretty damn well. why? because there were two attendings. two attendings who both had a lot of things going on on the side, mind you. think about what one or even two (mentally)healthy or stable attendings could do. think about how well the residents and students would be trained. think about how many more patients can be seen if the residents and students don't have to put all that workload onto one attending.

think about how much calmer robby would be if he didn't have to deal with all of the death and despair of that place, if he could devide the workload. think about how he would be able to give triggering cases to the other attending. think about what that could do for him, the fewer flashbacks he'd have. think about how he would finally be able to sometimes drink water, have a snack while sitting down, and go to the bathroom. think about how much more healthy the atmosphere would be if he didn't have to do all of it. this place used to have two attendings, and now for the past 6 years it hasn't. and look how things are. cmon guys

finished it🙏

[buckleyy]

not to be dramatic but buck not getting over feeling like he was too much as a child until late adulthood and multiple therapists and now these people coming into his home and are like our kid is too much and it’s your fault and asking him to fix it and he doesn’t know how because he can’t fix himself. i’m sad

[honorarybuckley]

okay so let me get this straight…in season six buck gets asked to be a sperm donor by an old friend and later delivers the baby only after getting struck by lightning and dying for 3 min 14 sec months earlier and then three years later in season nine he gets addicted to opioids and weeks to months later randomly encounters this bio kid on *checks notes* an live electric fence that he has to go up the ladder and interact with for reasons before reuniting with the old friend to be told something is wrong with him because something’s wrong with the kid only for the friend and his wife to die leaving the kid to potentially be adopted by buck?? do i have that right?

[panteneprovcommercial]

The fight between Robby and Al-Hashimi is so upsetting because unlike Robby and Langdon Al-Hashimi is responsible. After her first seizure she made an appointment to see her doctor and when a second seizure occurred before she could talk to them she went directly to the neurology department where she was cleared to work! Robby didn't do anything close to that when he was experiencing ptsd flashbacks throughout season one nor did he inform anyone of the extent of Langdon's drug abuse. So for him to act as a person of integrity and authority demanding Al-Hashimi what quit her job because she has a chronic condition which she is actively managing is beyond ridiculous and patronizing.

Season 2 must have been a mindfuck for so many of the actors. To film these wonderful, intense, personal scenes that are so pivotal to their characters only to find out in a fucking interview that the scene was cut. Never made it to air. The story they thought they were telling has been gutted. The scenes they describe with such pride and affection never saw the light of day.

And how curious this has happened with Supriya, Sepideh, and now Isa. Hmmm. What do they all have in common?

[hatosyscurls]

the frequency with which white people in The Pitt fandom—including prominent white members of the community—make me feel like a hysterical brown bitch who expects too much is actually astonishing given how many of the same people are cosplaying as "progressives" who care about justice and equity

[pittofdespair]

So interesting to see Isa and Geran give an interview where they're like, yeah we had a great scene of resolution and hope between our characters and it was cut and we don't know why and didn't know about it until it aired.

It's not just Supriya. And it's not like it was cut for time. The episodes were like, 42 minutes all season. They really narrowed the Pitt to The Robby Show.

[ot3]

one of my favorite types of media to experience is stuff that i know in another lifetime i would have been absolutely obsessed with as a kid/teen. going through something as an adult and being like yeah that was pretty good. however if this had made its way to me when i was 12 years old it would have fundamentally altered me and i hope it's fundamentally altering some other 12 year old out there right now. that's the good stuff.

[prentissology]

been thinking a lot about sepideh's recent interview and how she says that baran's decision to tell robby about her condition is her way of saying "i understand you. i understand that we're cut from the same cloth; so here is my olive branch of understanding. i want you to love and accept me for who i am - so here is the rawest, most fragile part of me", and how robby just throws all of her vulnerability right back in her face and shatters all and any hope baran has of ever "fitting in" at the ed with him in charge,,, :') LIKE. sepideh states it herself!! baran sees this as a "heroic gesture" because she's sacrificing how robby had seen her then, for him to see her in a different light. she's actively, desperately hoping that he sees her as just another person, and not somebody he is conditioned to hold dislike against. she is willing to ruin herself just so that he would look at her with more than just malice in his eyes, and yet it doesn't work out for her in the end. fuck dr. michael robinavitch. we're riding for baran al-hashimi at dawn holy shit 😭😭😭

it's the fact that brown women deserve to be love interests, even if it's just in fanon... it's the fact that both actors themselves found merit in the relationship and purposely portrayed it with a hint of flirtation for funsies and to add an extra layer for fans to pick up on in canon if they wanted... it's the fact that for once, a white male character was narratively positioned to prop up a female character of color instead of the perpetually overused vice-versa situation... it's the fact that Mohan absolutely stood on her own as an inspirational and compelling character with a backstory and motivations just as engaging, if not more so, than Abbot's... it's the fact that shipping in and of itself is first and foremost a shits n giggles activity that is nevertheless undoubtedly negatively impacted no matter how you slice it when a character is removed from the story...

Idk man, this is just such a loss in every conceivable category. No character should ever be reduced to a ship they're associated with, but that is not what is happening here. Fans are just upset about all the potential and all the fun we're losing with this decision, too. It was a unique and appreciated dynamic both within and outside the confines of canon.

(I'm genuinely so grateful and still excited for fans keeping things alive like we always do. Cuz we always do and always will. But still. STILL.)
