#going to really miss OF saturdays

ah the feel-good, snoozefest, milquetoast ending i feared and expected.... in both its highest points and its lowest points ONLY FRIENDS was a case against fixed pairings

i skipped forward all of the topmew scenes in this one again, so this episode was probably a cool 30 mins for me. i’m preaching to the choir i know but they were SUCH a glaring weak point in this show. to the point of unwatchability. they did top so dirty, man. you can’t root for a character who’s just so…cardboard. you can’t even love to hate him. did he have a meaningful conversation with anyone other than mew in the entirety of the series? top was underdeveloped, mew was kind of a drag (revenge era notwithstanding). the tension there was just not giving.

a lot of their post-ep2 relationship development was to build up to mew’s devastation, and to wink-nudge at the audience. any topmew tension before the reveal came from us knowing what top and boston did, while an oblivious mew just thought top was checking all his boxes. removed from the context of the secret, they just went on a series of boring dates, lol. and then we were back at square one with top trying to prove himself to mew--this time without the tension of the big secret. naturally it fell so flat. and goddamn did they give these two a whole lot of screentime. who enjoyed this? did force//book fans even enjoy this? (unless any of their scenes in the last two episodes were somehow good because. lol. i did not watch them)

nick going back on his “i love you the way you are, you don’t have to change” in the eleventh hour SUCKED majorly. seeing boston grovel SUCKED even more like REAL BAD. one big happy friend group, right where they started, sucked. and boston being left alone in the end like that was not fun for me

he was rebuffed during the new years kiss. he was allowed no rebuttal after nick insisted that he would be happier alone, when boston had just said he can have feelings for nick and simultaneously want to sleep with others. yeah his communication skills left something to be desired, but you really could make the case that this is because the boundaries he DOES set are constantly crossed by others--so why should he bother even setting them? idk his ending did feel kinda punitive, i agree with a lot of what i’ve seen, but it also felt just unresolved. what was the point of his last fling with nick?

idk they should have let bostonnick be “nasty” (big quote unquote here) together. boston is still endlessly interesting to me i will probably have more today on this. forever my favorite only friend, forever that girl

at least we have sandray. the bi4bi sandray mutual crush on keira knightly was the episode highlight for me because yeahhhh, same (episode highlight, aside from the almost-threesome in the pool. and sand owning his status as DOG. and first kissing force). as @jolselin said. time and again firstkhao really outsold. the only friends tagline: firstkhao outsold. forget everything i said about fixed pairings

and the mix cameo…i should’ve dropped my “here’s how mix in only friends can still win” post yesterday. know i screamed. and boeing, gone as suddenly as he arrived, was a lot of fun. it’s greedy but i would’ve appreciated just an inkling of what his deal was. and i also wish this show leaned into its absurdity a little more. 

okay a harsh review and thumbs down for the last episode. but if there’s a second season or spin-off I will ABSOLUTELY watch. this shit was so hysterical and fun and wild and sexy. this was my best friend’s first BL and we basically spent a full hour every saturday cry-laugh-yelling “what the fuck” at the screen. from the baffling music cues to the ubiquitous bubblegum pink lip tints, and with the exception of topmew, it was such a blast. thank u jojo et al

I am typically a very quiet person (in volume), so I forget that I can actually be Very Loud until I have to run a practice by myself.

i have way more empathy then i did last year. so much happened that now i can easily relate to someone or feel what they feel even if it hasnt happened to me. a pro of using that empathy to help people feels so good. but a con is that if someone is sad or just not okay, i feel sad and tired. i start mentally feeling what they feel.

then i drop it onto people that i dont want to. although im more empathetic, im still me, and i can do things i dont even wanna do.

oops sorry i have no time for an autobiography.

the way i am makes no sense, my own traits can collide with other traits.

its easier to help people a little over my age or younger (maybe ages 16-) because i've experienced that much.

i have more things id rather say but i dont know how to write it down and i dont want this to be a very long post so thats kinda it i guess 😊

read tags if you want hehe

- Do you find yourself procrastinating? What are you procrastinating right now? Be honest haha

Sometimes I’d say “procrastination” is my middle name, lol. But I don’t push off a task itself (except for making a GP appointment), it’s more like I start procrastinating while doing the task. I work like 30 mins and then I don’t want to anymore and start doing something else. Mostly looking at my phone, which is a real problem, which I have yet to find a solution for. I get my stuff done, but I’d be faster if I didn’t procrastinate so much. As for right now, I'm rereading something for my PhD and I'm so not in the mood for it and kinda bored so I take a "break" every other page... And I know that if I would sit down properly I'd get it done in 1 - 1.5 hours 😭

- What do you think defines a person's character?

Empathy. For me, I found that if a person is not able to put/ imagine themself in the position of another, they tend to be very self-centered and egoistical. These traits tend to overshadow most of the good qualities these people have, because when it comes down to it, egoism takes center stage and this does not speak of a good character, at least in my opinion.

damn i'm realizing that i've really made it basically impossible for myself to watch a whole bayern match until. october. do i hate myself subconsciously or something

they weren’t lying, that going outside, talking to people, going on a walk to get a little drink from the gas station really helps your mental health
