NGL I think it’s hilarious how angry Europeans (and specifically Italians) get when Italian Americans call themselves Italian. A guy can be 100% ethnically Italian, have an Italian name, speak the language, uphold Italian cultural practices and they’ll argue with him if he calls himself Italian. And it’s kind of the opposite of how Irish people treat Irish Americans. They’re like “JFK was one of us. Obama? Also one of us.”

so many male characters are held back by the fact that they're not wearing earrings when they so clearly should be wearing earrings

When my brothers were younger I wanted to teach about misogynistic tropes in media without scaring them off by presenting the topic right out the gate as serious and aggressive and intimidating so I pointed out one day that movie dudes usually only ever have three motives- 1. Wife, 2. Daughter, 3. Dog.

And now whenever we watch a movie together and a dude character is about to reveal their angst backstory we take guesses if it’s gonna be 1, 2, or 3.

Which is specifically the most fun to do in bad B-list action movies because you can say “It’s a 1” as it starts and then ten minutes later the ham-fisted Macho Man Tough Guy quietly mentions being married once and you can put your hands in the air and go “AYYY IT WAS 1” like your team just scored a sportsball goal

Truthfully though I think we need more 3’s

for a show that otherwise seems fairly accurate, it is wild to me that The Pitt claims you can only report child abuse with proof. this is not true anywhere in the USA and the millions of Americans who are mandated reporters (teachers, doctors, nurses, counselors, therapists, health aides, etc) all know this. really weird thing to make a whole plot point of.

idk how that got past their fact checkers, unless it was a deliberate choice for drama? in no way would any actual doctors react this way to serious claims of child molestation from a mother directed at her husband. you would immediately call CPS based on the mother's account of his behavior

yeah libraries are cool but have you ever found a library with a secret doorway disguised as a bookshelf that leads to a smaller, hidden library filled with ancient books full of mysteries and forgotten knowledge? me neither and i'm sad about it

if i had two dollars for every time a comonwealth country's federal election ousted the opposition leader from their position and their electorate seat in 2025, i'd have two dollars, which isnt a lot, but it's weird it happened twice right?
