Year after year, I find myself here, with unchanged feelings.

I miss Bryce Lahela

Yes, this is the post

It’s 2025 and I still see people describing BRYCE LAHELA as a white man‼️🤬

White and blonde. Stop whitewashing BIPOC characters, dammit

Mickey 17 really said that someone will love all versions of you, even the version that you can’t seem to accept.

“He just wants to have a nice life and be a regular dude. He doesn't really have any higher aspirations particularly. He was fine with being tortured every day if he could just go home to Nasha.” - Robert Pattinson

I’ve seen several people criticizing Adolescence.

About how we know nothing about the victim and how another crime tv show focuses again on the perpetrator. — when it’s clear that the focus on the show is about the impact of social media and misogyny on teenage boys. It could have been any boy, any girl, anywhere. And the show is carefully built to put the female characters in second plan. To show the sexism in our everyday lives.

About how the show fails to hold social media and technology companies accountable - when the purpose of the show was never to point fingers to anyone but to stir reflection and conversations about where we’re going as a society and how we are (or not) protecting our children

About how it leaves open questions and nothing is too deeply elaborated - with four episodes, what did you expect? Besides, questions about what? If he did it? It’s pretty clear from episode one. What people will do about it? We follow the aftermath. Again, the show’s intention was to start conversations about this fact.

And the wildest one, was how the family could live on happily after what the boy did - it’s pretty obvious (and I honestly cannot understand how this person saw any sign of happiness between them) that they’re all struggling, but trying to move on. Because life keeps on happening.

Everyone is entitled of their own opinion, but it shocks me how people seem to fail media literacy more and more. We must approach every media - everything, really - with a critical eye, yes, but with a discerning eye too.

Heartbreaking. Brutal. Brilliant.

Adolescence is a must watch.

"Do you want to give us a reason why? Why would you do something like this? Jamie, do you want to explain? Do you want to say sorry to Katie's mum, who I had to talk to just past midnight last night while she was sobbing on the floor because her daughter is gone? Do you want to say sorry to her?"

for the first time in two years you're allowed to wear your own clothes. you get led to your own death and black out. you suddenly wake up to see your husband you haven't seen in two years. he's absolutely SOAKED in blood. you two embrace and kiss and then run down hallways and shove a dead guy out of an elevator. you black out again wake up to him ignoring your screams for him and going back to hell and walking away holding hands with another woman. happened to my good friend gemma scout
