actually upon further consideration, i think it’s a power move for sasha to be like “yeah man, i’m gonna raise our daughter in your family’s bigass mansion and she’s gonna know her family but i don’t want YOU involved. also i took money from the guy who may or may not have firebombed you, btw*”. iconic behavior.

*full disclosure, i don’t think the writers have decided who set the bomb yet and they’re going off vibes. i still think it was drew, but it looks like theyre leaning in the sidwell direction again

The fashion, the haircut…and not to make it about this but like…the obvious (iykyk) it’s like Maxie from 2008 stepped out of a Time Machine and onto the set of 2025 General Hospital. It’s wild…

The Lost Child of Brante: I don't think I've been as impressed with a story since the ending of the BLQ/Maxie/Bailey story. The climax was excellent, turning a garbage retcon into something worth watching. I'm glad they actually put something into Gio rather than him existing to be nice and play violin. Of course, everyone will forgive everyone so I'm not keen on BLQ's rage being permanent...especially not where Lulu is concerned. Speaking of...

DeLulu: This is a Spencer family hate account. Always. The fact that she is still as pushy and nosy and annoying as she was pre-coma and pre-3rd recast is quite something. I'm glad everyone and their mom was like "Don't do this," and she did it, and the move was "We told you not to do it, and like a dumb bitch, you didn't listen." These consequences for her are short-term of course, while she gets to stomp around and act like a disgruntled high schooler because her crush got mad at her, and that'll be long-term. And yes, Gio should beat her up. Then BLQ. Then-

The Millow/Drillow Shitshow: Wiley and Amelia can and should go into foster care. Neither parent is fit to have custody of them, be it their mob-aligned daddy or their philandering mommy/aunt. I get Michael is "hot" now but we all seem to forget that this is MICHAEL we are talking about. Trust me, once everything is resolved and Willow obviously loses, you all will go right back to hating him, just as God intended. I'm glad there are low blows on either end because it pumps up the soapy drama of it all, but further lobotomizing Willow with old-man dick was...a choice that was certainly made. I mean I've always hated her, so my opinion hasn't really changed all that much. The only other resolution here is someone popping Drew in the head execution-style. That would be nice.

Agent Jaws Jokes: EM needs to fuck off. What a garbage story, another garbage story where we're led to believe Josslyn Jacks is the almighty It Girl. She has zero instincts, zero subtlety, and zero fucking braincells. A man who had a new storyline and new love interest that people would invest into got fired because he was no longer benefitting her. So then what? This story flops and she gets to eat another story like her TV mom? You got Emma Scorpio-Drake on screen, with BB acting her ass off, and you decide that Dalton picks Joss despite Emma being his top student and someone he is physically attracted to. In a logical world, Emma still gets picked. In this world, Joss can't ever lose. This girl is an albatross and needs to GO. NOW. PS - Vaughn's actor is married, so so much for attempting to shove a showmance down our throats, huh? Too bad.

Trai Something...Anything: Do I like Trina and Kai? Sure. They're fine. I'd like them more if the writers invested into the pair as people, like they are with Gio/Emma (who I also like btw). But even then, TA is on contract. Her last leading story was the Curtis paternity reveal, and I don't recall her ever having a prominent enough spot in it compared to Portia's bullshit. TPTB knows they can stick her anywhere as support and act like it's fine, but would rather not spend time giving her a story she's owed. I'm not even talking about grieving Spencer or going to find him, I'm talking about ANYTHING. Investing in her art interest is a great place to start, which could put her in a caper/mystery or tangling w/ a stalker a la Ava/Ryan. Or hell, even being the villain and keeping secrets and lying about whatever, which gives her center stage. Just...give Trina something to DO! Playing support does not count!

Sidwell Crosby: So Jenz is both a shady dickhead and an upstanding member of society? It can't be both. If he's meant to be the villain, having him engage in illegal resource practices by word-of-mouth means nothing. This version of Sidwell is so scrubbed clean from when he came on, and it's a bit jarring. Like sure, bullying Natalia and loving his gay son is great and all, but what else is he here for? How long are we going to drag him out until he's cornered and does a 180 to twirl his cartoon mustache? Figure him out and get a move on.

Krashtina: if anyone has fallen from grace, it's the once-hopeful mafia heiress. Seeing Alexis be twisted into knots to protecr this psychopath makes me so sad. Kristina deserves prison time for trying to kill Ava, and almost killing Elizabeth and Ric (my beloved, my king). Not even the headstrong, impulsive, grounded Krisrina that LA embodied would pull shit like this. I'm grateful every day that I have my own version...

Dead Dad Walking: Thank God we're done with faux Sasha/Jason. I don't know who thought that was a good idea for a placeholder until Michael was recasted. If you want to recycle soap stories, maybe try completely different characters for it? Just an idea. I never fucked with Jason so my opinion of his is the same, but I want justice for Sasha. Not just for the potential further trauma porn, but for this stupid idea that she needs to be "independent" by not earning money and being the chef for a rich family. I just...why???

Misc: LnL2 don't inspire anything in me. Give both RH & JJ something better to do. Move on from this referendum - put up or shut up (even though Ezra Boyle is lowkey fun). Pair Jordan and Isaiah back up PLEASE. Truck Nuts can fuck off; pairing him with Molly and expecting the dynamic to be her scolding him and cleaning up his tantrums makes me miss Dex/Molly that much more.

i think molly should get to drop kick kristina at least once before i die

A journey through the good, the bad, and everything in between. Hoping for more of the good in 2025.
