The way Evelyn Hugo speaks of biphobia and how Bisexuals are often dismissed and not be taken seriously is one of the many things i like about The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo.

“Obviously ‘bihet’ offends a lot of bisexuals, so we need to come up with a better term for bisexuals in m/f relationships.”

How about… and hear me out… this may sound crazy…. but you… continue to call us bisexual… because (and I realize this gets confusing for you people so read this next part slowly) it turns out we continue to be bisexual regardless of who we’re dating.

So two days ago I commented on @suckyrmum77 ‘s post (check it out!) and I wanted to repost what I was thinking about “The view from halfway down.”

So the whole episode revolves around people Bojack lost through out the show in form of a dream. Every moment was in fact, in Bojacks mind. It was his death dream, if you will.

Within this is the infamous and beautiful poem conducted by Secritariat. Which revolves around suicide but above all, regret.

Secritariat expresses his regret for jumping and how he whishes for safety. But as we know, this is all within Bojacks mind.

We know Secritariat was a huge inspiration and idol for Bojack as a child and even into his adulthood. Eventually lost to suicide, this ‘death dream’ may be showing what Bojack hopes Secretariat felt.

It’s clear Bojack wants to take his life. However, maybe, this fantasy he had created where his idol regretted his own suicide very well might have been motivation for him to keep living, even if he didn’t want to. Because if his idol regretted it, he would too, right?

I think, the poem may represent Bojacks doubt about suicide by projecting it onto a different figure within his mind.

exactly exactly exactlyyy🙏🏻

sorry i know i keep posting bojack takes but i’m not gonna stop

anyways one of my favourite things from the whole show is the “view from halfway down” poem. the reason i like it so much is that, as we know, the entire situation was all in bojacks mind and none of it was real. so therefore bojack completely made up everything said during all of those scenes, including the poem. there was no way for bojack to know what his childhood hero thought in his final moments alive, so he made it up. the poem stresses how secretariat jumped before completely thinking it through and then the second he jumped, all he longed for was his feet to be back on the ground.

i think that heavily reflects onto bojack and it makes so much sense that it’s all his imagination. bojack countless times has impulsively done things that ruin him, one thing even brought him insanely near death. he wants stability and he needed someone to tell him that he would regret it if he “jumped”, but no one did. so in his final attempt to save himself his subconscious was the one who told him that, his subconscious was the one who gave him that reassurance that he so longed for off everyone else. and as he mentioned the “dream” would usually happen and then cut off before he got to the show, and the one time it didn’t cut off and it played the whole way through, was the time he needed to hear that poem more than anything.

idk tbh this isn’t really a take on anything it just rlly interests me

[suckyrmum77]

rewatching bojack horseman and it’s frl so much more complex than i thought. i always thought that bojack was just a terrible person and everyone who knew him unwillingly suffered and it was all his fault. but now i’m seeing that it definitely isn’t just his fault. everyone in bojack is so damaged and flawed in different ways but that doesn’t make them immune to taking control. when around bojack i think all of the characters want to indulge in his lifestyle. and just like “bojack” the drug, the real bojack is insanely addicting. that’s why they keep coming back for more of him yk?? like any of the characters could have easily walked away from bojack at any point and it would have been over but they all chose to return to him. i think being around bojack gives them a false sense of self or even just a false sense of reassurance that they aren’t a bad person.

bojack horseman is the type of toxic that is so clearly addictive but the thing is, a toxic person almost always goes hand in hand with another toxic person. anyone who has full self respect and knows what they’re worth would easily walk away from someone like bojack. and i rlllyy like how the show displays how the other characters being super insecure in themselves makes them an entirely perfect match for someone like bojack.

ok that’s all thanks for listening to my rant 😭

[suckyrmum77]

i cant quite tell where the writers of rick and morty are going with the new season. even in the first episode we can clearly see a difference in morty, his lack of remorse etc. but we can see a change in rick too and that’s what has me stuck. he comes across as more fragile, i think. i’m not sure the best way to describe it but i’m definitely intrigued

[suckyrmum77]

imo diane is one of the best characters in bjhm. and it’s actually so frustrating that people will dislike her solely because she goes against bojacks opinions and actions and consistently tried to better him. like they feed into the idea that bojack is perfect and an ideal person, which he quite obviously isn’t.

i think it does exactly what the show writers wanted it to do though, people want to relate to bojack and how he feels so therefore they’ll hate on anyone who even slightly goes against him/ speaks the truth on him. because even though a lot of stuff diane did was for her own benefit and to prove herself worthy, she is still one of the only characters who ever spoke honestly to bojack & tried to save him from himself.

[sunphse]

A lot of people seem to get mad because she sets boundaries, especially with bojack? With other characters bojack hurts, they either never end up confronting him or it takes them a while. Diane knows how to tell bojack his actions are wrong, and I don't know how people can hate her for fhat

[suckyrmum77]

exactly!! diane sets limits and let’s bojack know when he pushes them or goes too far and i think a lot of people dislike her out of envy. they don’t know how to set boundaries or confront their loved ones so therefore they dislike her bcoz she can? if that makes sense

[suckyrmum77]

it’s so frustrating to see that when people redraw the bjhm characters as real people they always draw diane as a white women, like cmon we know she’s not white??

[suckyrmum77]

princess carolyn is definitely one of my favourite characters in bojack horseman 🙏🏻🙏🏻
