the genuine horror and tragedy of early orihime's storyline is that, when a loved one dies, we all comfort ourselves with blanket statements about what they would have wanted for us by saying "they would've wanted us to be happy" / "they would have wanted us to move on" and we try to make meaningful lives for ourselves because that's what they would have liked for us (even if we ourselves feel like the world has stopped in their absence). so much of post-grief behavior is performative, trying to convince people you're fine and you're okay and you're moving on, and this is doubly so for orihime, who doesn't know much about the afterlife yet and is convinced she's got to put on a believable enough performance for her brother so he won't worry about her.
and most of us will never know or see if we grieved our loved ones right or not, but for orihime, the curtain is ripped apart and it turns out her performance is too good, her brother actually believes it's real and he lambasts her for grieving him the wrong way. of course, it's his hollow that's turned him to be selfish and possessive, but it couldn't have been easy for orihime to have been telling herself "i just have to smile for him, i just have to push through for him" only for him to go: why are you smiling? why are you pushing through? i'm dead. to make matters worse, he adds that he's lived his whole life for her, which is such an insurmountable guilt for her to bear and such a messed up thing to hear from a caretaker at such a young age!!!

been listening to fh junior year while walking my dog and let me tell you. there is nothing that makes a bit funnier than being aware that you are in public and the students walking past you on the college campus where you work do Not know that you are listening to the Bad Kids try and fail to make Kristen look like a good student presidential candidate by giving her a cowboy hat full of salsa and casting so many bad spells to cover the fact that her goddess is dead and she has no magic

jewish culture is talking to a jewish friend about jewish holidays and theorizing about a drag show for purim, which turns into "what if I start a jewish drag bar that has daytime programming for minors (and adults) and nighttime programming (for adults only) to be a queer inclusive jewish space somewhere (which we queer jews desperately need more of), and seriously starting to consider it, so now you have to think about what you'd name it if you DID make it (taking suggestions for my hypothetical jewish drag bar)

Interviewer: Avatar Aang, why did you run away from home?
Aang: I was told I was the Avatar at like 12, and the pressure got to me so I childishly ran away. :( Ironically that ended up being the right choice, but that's a diff story.
Interviewer: Fascinating. Did you take anyone with you?
Aang: Of course! My best buddy, ol' pal Appa! :D
Appa: Moo
Interviewer: Avatar Korra, why did you run away from home?
Korra: Well the first time- I don't want to talk about the second time- it was because those jerks wouldn't let me BE THE AVATAR! So I ran away to do my duties!

Kyoshi: Of course! I took my totally 100%, platonic bestie Rangi! Mmmhmmm just friends, totally, ONLY friends. Haha. No secret longing feelings here, no siree.
Rangi: Platonic???? Not by the end of this trip, not if I have anything to say about it!

I was rewatching my favourite dc animated film and I felt the need to share this
Love their friendship
Btw the film is justice league: New frontier
It’s a 2008 film set in the 50s and it is kind of Hal Jordan/Martian Manhunter centric
