my hips don't lie but they will exaggerate details, misrepresent the facts, and on occasion deceive via omission of crucial information

unhealthy codependency is really a top tier dynamic. like they need each other to survive but god. should they.

did not realize how many people didn't know mel and becca are fraternal twins (mentioned in season 1) - this is also more to the point about mel likely being in the spectrum since fraternal twins concordance of asd is something like 30%.

People referring to Robby as a "powerful white man" as if he's not just an emergency department doctor who works 8-12 hour shifts most days and spends that time working directly with patients and their families, covered in blood, or going to bat for his crew against administration. We haven't even seen him take a break at work that wasn't for a complete mental breakdown. He's also being actively pushed out of his position and department by the ACTUAL powerful hospital administration who see him as an unwanted inconvenience because he cares more about keeping his crew safe and his patients alive than about making a profit or getting good yelp reviews.

The Pitt is genuinely something else. I have so many conflicting emotions over everything and the show constantly has you see human flaws put in front of us each episode, which as humans is a hard pill to face and swallow. We don’t like to see the ugliest parts of ourselves put in a show especially of all things.

I felt livid watching Robby rip into Mohan the way he did especially as a brown skinned woman as well who has constantly battled with mental health, but then also knowing everything going on from the flip side makes me feel conflicted knowing that that man is not in a good place and very well may kill him self or at least attempt it, especially if he doesn’t get the help he needs. Like the guy straight up is seeing Mohan paralleling himself from season 1 and it scares the shit out of him to see his own hardships from the outside perspective.

I mean multiple things can be true:

A) let’s be fr everyone knows that everyone in that hospital needs help… like genuinely start up group therapy Caleb!

B) that behavior was not okay and can’t be dismissed, but rather needs to be addressed

As for Mohan she rightfully has no reason to feel anything but disdain or hatred for this man after these events cause she doesn’t know whats going on nor is it her responsibility to find out. Like yes he’s her mentor but really is just a coworker / superior at the end of the day. Mohan is especially well within her right to feel a lot of negative emotions (especially because its not like it is easy to control how we feel at times) when she has been constantly been getting berated by Robby since season 1 (yes once again he’s been going through it since then, and honestly even before S1), but she doesn’t really know that or to what extent, nor does she have a responsibility to find out.

Can’t wait to see how the story continues to progress and what other feelings it will evoke.

"Robby is a powerful white man who destroyed evidence to protect another powerful white man (Frank)!" I think you are a deeply unserious person.

Simon Foster is a disturbing character, but surely a memorable one, and played very well by Bertie Carvel, so the return of "Doctor Foster" for the last series seems to be good news. Was the comeback announced now, because of the popularity of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and the character of Baelor? Well, it would surely make sense 😉

[stormpond]

Please don't tell me that the BBC watched all those horny edits with Bertie Carvel and decided to bring Doctor Foster back for a third season.

this show was a traumatic experience

[vhagars-dementia]

I heard Bertie Carvel played a dirty freak in Doctor Foster 👀👀👀

I guess i know where i'm headed

[baelorthebeloved]

Bertie Carvel is a good actor. Full stop. I adore his work and I believe he is an effective and affective actor. As much as I love him as Baelor Targaryen in AKOTSK, I want to drown him as Simon in Doctor Foster >_<;

Prince Baelor getting sexier every episode

[cbge]

a fun fact about me is that when i first heard about supernatural as an 11 year old i didn't yet know what "supernatural" means in english but i knew that in russian натурал (natural) is synonymous with heterosexual so when i looked at the posters i thought that the show was about guys who are comphet and struggling with inner homophobia and then years later i watched it and it was in fact about that

You're just a mammal. Let yourself act like it. Your brain needs enrichment. Your body needs rest. You feel hunger and grow hair. You need to pack bond with other sentient things so you don't become unsocialized and neurotic. You are biologically inclined to seek dopamine and become sick when chronically stressed. "Hedonism" is made up to place moral value on taking pleasure in sensory experiences. I am telling you that if you don't let yourself be a fucking mammal, as you were made, you will suffer and go insane. No grindset no diets no trying to be above your drive for connection. Pursue what makes you feel good and practice radial rejection of the constructs meant to turn you into a machine. You're a mammal.

[eldritchbauble]

I am so serious about the way people are taught to view themselves as separate from and above any other animal being the root cause of a lot of problems. You're not better than a beast.

[eldritchbauble]

This post has really made the rounds so I have to say - this mentality changed me overnight. I had this realization that all of the fumbling over self love I did for years just needed... this. Once I internalized that I'm just a creature, it got so much easier to take care of myself.

I've started treating myself like I would a dog that's going to chew through the house when it's bored. I walk myself. I seek activities that make my brain feel less like depressed sludge. I ask my body what it needs; I rest, I enjoy rest. I don't see it as a waste or unproductive. I see it as allowing my body to do its job of working better. I lean into appreciating my natural features. I'm a hunk of flesh. I can be ugly. I can decide that ugly is appealing. I can not care. Whatever. I started emphasizing little things that nourish my relationship(s), shelving distractions more, so I can relish the time I have with loved ones. I specifically pursue pleasure--dopamine--not just quick hits from scrolling social media but getting off my ass. Engaging. Cooking myself nice meals and making fucking art, man. Things that make my spirit feel more alive than I have for years. I ask myself what it is I want rather than only doing what I'm supposed to be doing. And it doesn't mean shirk every responsibility, it means recognizing you're one of your fucking responsibilities. It's reordering. I realized I'm going to die happy or unhappy and either way I'm just as dead in a given amount of years, and I choose to die happy and fulfilled.

Everything else can get fucked ad infinitum.

Call me a hedonist, I'm saving my own life.
