Martin Scorsese watching Eminem perform at the 92nd Academy Awards vs Ryan Gosling at the 96th Academy Awards
fuck therapy i need to be cast as a horrible person in a horror movie and get to stab a fake body and get blood all over me and act deranged (and get paid for it!), that would help me a lot actually
a constant struggle
"Why can't you just respect my opinion?"
Because your "opinion" is dehumanizing an entire group of people.

ALSO CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE HAIRSTYLES ??? FOR MY GALS AND THE BACKGROUND EXTRAS ????? I SAW BRAIDS AND NATURAL STYLES … LITERALLY Z’S HAIR WAS TIED DOWN WITH A SCARF LIKE YALL DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW AMAZING THAT IS.
1. So fucking glad that they are having GG be a group project and not one individual and even though i think adults preying on children's privacy is disgusting (as gossip itself always has been), it's at least an interesting set up. Interested to see how the teacher dynamics will change the GG account as it goes though
2. NATE ARCHIBALD AS AN EXAMPLE OF BEST STUDENT?? someone who wrote this loves @rainathorpe and I personally
3. Poly ship poly ship poly ship
"it's different with you and aki"
"in a good way?"
"in the best way"
AND THEN
"you know you can think of him"
4. Julien and Zoya were so cute at first, I wish they had paced out that friendship throughout the season, but I'm also SO glad they didn't pull a Julien/Obi/Zoya cheating arc
5. I love the sound of Kristen Bell's voice
6. Zoya's dad is cute and it's interesting that he also has a unresolved relationship with the UES like Rufus even if not romantic
7. Super glad the power balance of the main trio isn't minions. Luna is shown to be an actual stylist, Monet is the one bossing Julien half the time as an actual manager, and Julien might be the influence but she's also a face. Which, the whole influencer thing is interesting in its own right
8. Max and his family of gays!!
9. Monet sitting like a queen in front of her throne!
10. Aki and his references 👌 I love this kid even more than I thought i might
11. Obi is a little annoying, but that's bc i don't want a rich white savior kid moralizing out of guilt with my trashy teen soaps lol. I don't think they had to go quite that hard to connect him with Zoya but whatever lol it's only the pilot
12. Also very unhappy with how the teachers dubbed the darkest-skinned character Monet "the villain", like bitch please.
13. I'm looking forward to actually getting to see Audrey's relationship with Julien, it was definitely overshadowed by Audrey's sex scenes they needed the promos for apparently
((that being said, it was nice to see the gender reversal of the typical standing male gratification sex scene))
14. this is something so tiny only i will care but i do love that they finally addressed campus roaming privileges even if in one sentence
AND LAST but... the digs at headbands, at chuck/blair being pre-cancel culture, and the former student now teacher being accused of being gossip girl were great
fucking thank you to never have i ever for tackling the bullshit "gay people have to be into everything gay and only everything gay" stereotype. it runs rampant on this hellsite and i'm beyond over the idea that all of my interests somehow have to be dictated by my sexuality.
