My version of flirting is looking at someone I find attractive multiple times and hoping they're braver than me.

i feel like we don't talk about how instagram reels are literally the devil. the comments and content there are so fucking vile. at least on tiktok a fat woman can post a video of herself without every single comment absolutely tearing her down for existing.

Genuinely thinking about Greg for like more than two seconds makes me throw up cause like think about it, his father probably did abandon him at a young age, and growing up he had to hear about why his father abandoned him as jokes and quips from other people, where the punchline was always that he’s gay and just the fact that he is gay. His father’s departure likely led to Marianne’s unnamed illness and we’ve seen in the show how Ewan can emotionally abusive since he cared more about his ideals than his family. Like Greg’s internalised homophobia must be insane cause imagine growing up where your family was broken because of your dad’s queerness and people constantly made fun of you because your dad was gay.

okay i know we all love big brown doe eyed eddie but. can we please talk about how he has blue eyes in the book.
because like yeah in the book he's described as having greyish blue eyes. but like. eddie kaspbrak with weezer blue eyes. imagine it. right now. imagine tiny eddie like staring directly into richie's eyes to deliver an impassioned speech about infections. just staring. staring right into his very soul. now that would make the IT movies scary. or in the scene where henry stabs eddie and eddie's closing the shower curtain and he's like half laughing. imagine that scene and he has just. freakishly blue eyes. TERRIFYING.

okay but crowley’s “do we know a jim?” is SO fucking married and also SO fucking funny
like obviously they only have shared acquaintances. the idea of zira knowing someone he doesn’t? doesn’t even register as a possibility. if zira knows him, he knows them.
crowley is really just out here like

And the thing that tears me up the most about the Asumi incident is the fact that Kusuo still made sure his first and last friend would be protected. He made sure he wouldn’t be bullied again. And maybe he didn’t see the isolation that might result from that as a bad thing because Kusuo thought that he’d be safer that way

if i can be sappy on main for a moment:
last night i was having a bit of a brain spiral - "why are my social skills so bad, why can't i hold a conversation like a normal person", etc - so i reached out to a friend of mine to talk it through. and they told me, the first time i met you we were at a party where i didn't know anybody, and i was really anxious, and you made an effort to include me and make me feel part of things, and it turned a potentially unpleasant evening into a nice one.
and holy shit, this meant so much more to me than if they'd said "don't be silly, you're great at socialising!" (which would have sounded like a lie, whether they meant it as one or not). it made me feel instantly better because i had this sudden realisation of, hey, you know what, maybe it's not about being the most charming or funny person in the room. maybe everyone's secretly a little nervous and looking for reassurance. maybe it's not all about me.

i'm thinking abt if/once shane becomes more involved in jas's life (trying to do better by her & stuff) that at events her & vincent will tire themselves out & shane will pick jas up (she's sleeping or almost asleep) & make eye contact with jodi or kent holding a sleepy vincent & it's just. silent understanding.
