ten years ago you were so scared of such different things, but you survived them anyway. the same goes for five years ago and two years ago. everything that has ever felt like a hurdle, you’ve passed through. so be afraid, identify your fears, and then allow yourself to remember that in just a little while, this will be another thing that you have overcome.

My favorite part of Challengers was the referee at this local tournament in New Rochelle who is just trying to call a game of tennis while a fifteen-year throuple situationship implodes in front of him. Like you know after the movie ended he went to Chili’s down the street and had five glasses of wine while he attempted to unpack what the hell just happened
