The Gilded Age (2022-) | 3x01 - Who is in charge here?

We must act, or this sin will be our undoing. We have to save those who can be saved What about the ones that won't stop drinking? The Bible says transgressors will be destroyed. So I'm afraid those who partake of alcohol are destined for the fury of hell.

Making a very specific portrait of Bertha in my mind:

"I was nothing special"

"I wish I had my confidence when I was your age"

"[my mother] had nothing when she lived and nothing when she died" (+her very soft "thank you" when George says "you loved her, that wasn't nothing")

"[your mother said] you are the only one of my children who can achieve my dreams"

The last point especially is like... Imagine being told that as a child and carrying it the rest of your life - you are the only one who can do this, the only person capable of it, the only person who should carry it. Like how do you hear that and not have everything Bertha does make sense to you

There’s a misconception that nothing happens in 'The Gilded Age'. That because it’s so lush, tonally restrained, and mostly centers on the ambitions and follies of incredibly privileged people, nothing’s really at stake here. But to think that is to fundamentally misunderstand the heart of the show. The unending work of managing how people perceive us, the desire to break out of boxes that society puts us in, the unignorable economic factors of finding a love match—aren’t these the dramas of our lives?

genuinely feeling insane about how much I’m focused on georgebertha’s potential falling out. like I’m an adult with responsibilities and all I can think about is this

Same like it's all I can think about, it's all I want to talk about!!!! Like I have to go to work rn but I have been standing motionless in my bathroom rereading S3 reviews and it's like girl snap OUT of it!! But I can't, because of the madness

[mariusperkins]

Making some comparisons because sometimes you have to just make yourself feel worse

Happy (?) episode 1 premiere day
