Vocês não tem que se ajustar. Vocês não precisam ser ninguém além de quem vocês realmente querem ser. Algumas vezes nós nos esquecemos de que não há nenhuma lei que diz que é preciso ser o que os outros esperam que venhamos a ser. #osadoraveis #saramanning #ootd #outfit #lookoftheday #fashion #lookinggood #lookdarai#fashiongirl#boanoite

We’re gonna have to figure this thing out like we always do. But until then, we hunt.

Again With The Orphan Black (Spoilers)

I know it's because my family has mostly been a group of assholes to me but FUCKING HELL,I don't get how now that Sara knows that Helena is her twin shes all "SHES MY TWIN I HAVE TO LOOK OUT FOR HER." Granted,she was swinging to that side before the revelation but afterwards I felt like her justification boiled down to "We're related,I HAVE to give fucks in her direction!" No,hon. Just no. I think this is a general,societal problem. This whole "Blood Thicker than Water" thing and the like. I'm not bashing family love,its a wonderful thing when you have it.Like seriously,if you're got a bitch ass family that loves you no matter what,hold onto that shit. Nourish it and pay it FORWARD. But say,I dunno,someone tried to kill you. More than once. Threatened your life. Ate jello in a very disgusting manner in front of you. Then suddenly you find out they're related to you. Should you just be like "Oh! Well we're related so I have to love you and be nice to you now." or "Well,I should try an get over that and forgive you cause,y'know,we're fam-a-lam." Or,for a less sci-fi example,say most of your life your mother,despite,yes,putting a roof over your head and clothing you,had made it clear most of your life that : A) She wished she hadn't had you B) Outright told you that her life would be better without you c) Tell you after a failed suicide attempt that "That's the one thing you should've gotten right." D) Spent your whole life telling you your not good enough,constantly comparing you to other family members and putting you on various not friendly child diets to make you lose weight. E) Refused to help you with college,and never intended to because they didn't want to invest in you. #ohlookmylife #butitscoolcauseivegotafamilyoffriendsthatrocks Does this person deserve your unconditional love becausw they gave birth to you? Do they deserve your respect,loyalty,and help in the future? Does them being your mom,mean anything in the face of A-E? Here are some helpful links on how I feel about that: nope.com nope.org nope.edu Now granted,not everyone had such an extreme situation and of course,Helena's relationship to Sara isnt...THAT. But my point is,that "Blood is thicker than water creed" is borne from families that ARE loving and unconditionally there for one another. It's borne from that strength and bond that many famlies have. It's not in the blood,its in the PEOPLE. And some people don't have that. So yeah,Sara,don't be dumb. Don't let relation cloud rationality.
