Regret for a good decision

Ever give up on someone to the point where you’ve almost forgotten they exist then suddenly hear about them doing something that simultaneously confirms distancing yourself was the right call and opens up that healed scab where you used to allow disappointment over them bother you?

I lived through the swine flu, Y2K, first black president, 9/11, a royal wedding, the death of Michael Jackson, Osama's death & now 8/23/11 eastcoast earthquake. My life is fucking swag bro.

Mystery plans

Just to point out the writers addressed outside plans for almost every character (& their known close fam/friend) except Langdon & his family. Robby is starting trip alone. McKay’s son is w/his dad & she wants to go out w/ the hot patient to an art gallery. Javadi’s parents are nagging her to spend time with them. Whitaker is seeing Amy. Santos was ditched by Garcia for something else…. Al Hashimi calls her ex about keeping their son but the scene was cut. Samira has no life outside work per Javadi. But we know her estranged mom has plans w/a bf in NJ. Donnie is going home to his wife and newborn. Princess is at a BBQ. Dana is staying late to help the other charge nurse until she can find a replacement. Mel’s fireworks plans ruined bc Becca ditched her for her new bf. Abbot’s wife is dead. He & the rest of the Night crew are working. Abbot probably took that extra day shift with SWAT to not feel lonely on the holiday. Hmm. Jesse is detained. Ogilvie is from out of town & exhausted. Probably no plans. That leaves Joy (a guest star), Perlah ( a secondary character) and Langdon (the 2nd billed actor) as the only after hours mysteries. IMO Langdon’s plans being left a mystery by the writers sticks out A LOT in this group. We know he has a family but there’s not a single mention of what their plans are for the holiday he volunteered to work last minute…

annoying

Handling shipping questions with diplomacy & tact should not be this difficult for ppl on major tv shows. That’s their job.

Articles insulting “shipping” are misogynistic bc most shippers are women. Knocking those fans is an attempt to devalue romantic love, emotions & empathy as worthwhile concerns.

Wholesome people enjoy sex. Virtually all mothers engage in sex to procreate so those of us who respect & love our moms should see no contradiction btw being wholesome & enjoying sex.

Being neurodivergent doesn’t equal being unintelligent, naive, immature, stunted or asexual.

Becoming addicted to anything doesn’t equal being a bad person.

the right answer

All the healthcare workers on the show, give so much to their patients & pay a high toll physically, emotionally & mentally to do their work. Both Langdon & Mel began S2 w/out a support system at The Pitt so it’s been amazing for the characters to develop a bond & hopefully find a desperately needed ally. Both of us love our characters & enjoy our scenes. But they are co-workers & Langdon is married w/kids which complicates it becoming more than that. It’s up to the writers to decide where it goes. I trust them completely.

Mel, Langdon & $$$

Anyone else distracted by their finances? Noah Wyle said Langdon not working caused his family money issues & tension. Dana implied Abby was a stay at home mom. So how’d they live TEN MONTHS w/no income…why didn’t he go back to work sooner? That’s a long break for a single income family. I associate Labradoodle puppies w/purebreds which cost thousands. The dog tears up a yard implying a house not an apt & when Langdon S1 said Abby wanted an Hermes Birkin purse..Birkin purses cost btw $20k to $120k…

So I looked up how much residents make & it doesn’t fit with this kind of spending at all. Residents make btw $55-$100k depending on cost of living. The bigger salary is for big cities on the West & East coasts. Compare Whitaker to Langdon. Robby offered house sitting to Whitaker to save on rent while Langdon is supporting a family of four in a house & he’s only worried about catching upon his rehab bills…but not so worried that he’s not also considering paying for a burial for Louie which would easily be $5k-$10k Hmm…

edit:I forgot Langdon hurt his back bc he was “too cheap to pay for movers” when he helped his parents move…which seems wildly inconsistent w/the rest of his hinted background but ppl can be wildly inconsistent irl too so…

for Mel I mostly wonder how she lives. $70k is a good salary but if she pays for stuff for Becca like clothing,going ou, extra services at the facility or maybe monthly pymts not covered by Medicaid so Becca can stay in a nicer facility than Medicaid alone would cover…that’d take a lot of that $ before her own expenses. Thoughts?

[coffeenonsense]

imagine your mom coming into your place of work and immediately accusing you without any evidence of making a mistake in front of like 7 of your coworkers and your boss. now imagine it's the ER, your patient is coding and you're fucking 20.

Tidy Choices

I feel like the writers chose Mel to feel threatened by abandonment bc of Becca’s news instead the more complicated fear of new responsibilities&/or problems and failure bc it fit better w/opening Mel up to a romance w/Langdon….normally this kind of more basic choice would disappoint me but nope, bring on my ship.

RYAN COOGLER Best Original Screenplay at the 98th Academy Awards — March 15, 2026

[lovergirlmel]

I don't like some people's tone abt mel... she doesn't have a life bc she's a glass child and becca and her were orphans at 20 and she is becca's primary caregiver so much of her time and energy goes to becca because becca requires significant support not bc mel is too clingy or something. sure she needs to come to terms with some aspects of becca's adulthood/independence but let's not act like mel can just get up and decide to get a life unless someone takes something off her plate. mel's lived the life she has bc she has so many responsibilities not bc she has some self-pity complex

[texaslady956]

When Temu Langdon asked Mel what she liked to do her answer wasn’t she used to like soccer, art, ballet, whatever until her mom died and now she takes care of her sister. Mel struggled to think of her own pleasure at all! I’d guess Mel was PARENTIFIED her whole life w/her parents & other adults using Mel’s intelligence & kindness as excuses to ask her to suppress her desires/needs to help the adults meet Becca’s needs. There was no way w/how Mel acts there was ever fighting over toys, no demanding attn, no pouting she didn’t get to do what she wanted…most likely Mel as a CHILD herself cared for Becca. Mel likely listened to her parents talk about THEIR feelings & worries making sure Becca was well/safe/happy which made Mel internalize responsibility for this bc she loved her parents & sister & would want to help them. Do I think Mel’s parents gave Mel separate time so Mel knew her feelings & needs were equally important? Nope. I think being “helpful,” & “mature” got praised as “being good” which trained Mel to think caretaking her sister was HER job instead of just being a kid who should get to depend on her parents taking care of her. This lack of childhood is extremely traumatic & affects parentified kids thru adulthood. If Mel is parentified she is not going to be jealous her sister has a bf. Mel wouldn’t have that sibling rivalry like a normal kid. She’d more likely worry she hasn’t done a good job taking care of Becca bc parentified kids think that’s THEIR family duty.

I’ve never seen a single episode of the pitt but I do think that kind autistic woman should fuck the twitchy drug guy who has the eyes of an abandoned shelter dog
