why is there not enough discussion on saul and skyler’s relationship… they should’ve interacted more in canon but like. think abt it
skyler is this competent blonde woman who’s extremely smart and good at scamming (and pretty! and associated with blue!) and she has the biggest dipshit husband ever.
saul who is oh so desperately trying to keep his unloving sleazeball act up is failing bc. my God does this woman remind him of kim in the saddest way possible (ntm they start interacting more post gale death, when shit i’d argue really starts falling apart… Hmmm). he still acts like a dick to her but… in a protective way i feel. like he doesn’t want her to be nice to him or get close to him but still showing he has her back in his own fucked up way
and saul being soooo pissed that walt bagged this perfect woman and he’s still being a disrespectful shit like saul might be misogyny queen but even he was weirded tf out w walt…

So I finally finished watching Healer and I can't believe I slept on it! Because it's actually so good?!! Like WHA!!!!! 😭😍😭
But then again, you can't blame me, considering it was aired in year 2015 👀 and I only started watching k-dramas from last year. So there's that too 🌝
I guess I kinda owe thanks to 'Marry my husband' and 'Welcome to Samdal-ri'. Because when I was looking up for new content to watch I saw Min young and Ji-chang names in the cast and was like 'Hey! I know them! I have seen their dramas recently!' So thank you MMH and WTS 🥹💛
As for Healer, yup you are right; I am going to watch it again 🙈 still not over the feels it give me in each and every episode, ranging from happiness to angst to fluffiness 😍🤩
I won't be lying but I was a bit disappointed with the way they ended the last episode. Too much stuff crammed in it and still some questions were left unanswered.
But oh well, such is life 🥲 you don't get everything ( I would have like them to see them get married)
There's now one more thing to do *cracking my wrists*; time to write fanfics of my new otp 🙈✊

AND THEN!!!!!!!!! [GETS SNIPED OUT OF EXISTENCE]

Barbie (and Ken) Spoilers Ahead!!
So anyway, in case you haven’t noticed, I was Really Excited for Ken in this movie. I have a lot of love for SO’s who are himbos and drink their Respect Women juice and love their girlfriend/wife A Lot. I was so, so very excited to see Barbie and Ken in this movie.
Now, before I continue, let me just say this is not necessarily a criticism of the movie. I loved the movie! It made me cry on no less than three separate occasions! I can understand every decision that was made and I was here for it the entire movie.
My issue is not with Barbie. My issue is with my disappointment in Ken.
Again, this is not a criticism. Ryan Gosling? An amazing Beach Ken! I loved seeing all of the numerous Kens Ken-ing around (and Allan!!)!! They were all great actors and I think they pulled it off tremendously.
But I gotta get this off my chest. When Ken found out about the patriarchy? I was crushed. I wasn’t expecting this to be a rom-com; I knew what I was getting myself into, but I was so excited to see a live-action Barbie and Ken. Ryan Gosling, imo, was a better Ken than Ken was in my eyes. I was so deeply disappointed that my guy Ken decided to run back and introduce the patriarchy.
And, like, I know that’s the point. I know that’s the catalyst for the rest of the movie. I know everyone gets their comeuppance and they all learn to be better people and he goes off to find out who Ken is just like Barbie goes off to find out who Barbara Handler is.
But maybe I was kind of hoping to see some wholesome Barbie + Ken. Honestly, it really was kind of revolutionary to see Barbie admit that she liked Ken more as a friend and that, no, she didn’t want to kiss Ken even when he was her boyfriend. I thought that was amazing and beautiful and what I’d been waiting for for years now. But I guess I also… wasn’t expecting to see it in this. I guess my first thought when they didn’t kiss was “oh she’s ace!” and not “oh they’re on different levels of a relationship and she doesn’t love him as much as Ken loves her.” In this instance, I was really excited to see them in an ace established relationship.
Now, they did a great job of tearing down the “nice guys” and having Barbie reinforce her boundaries on multiple occasions and making Barbie see that you shouldn’t be with someone just because they’re doing x y and z. Paralleled, it was important that Barbie not take Ken for granted and there was an apology and I think it was very healthy that Ken got to cry it out.
Furthermore, I saw the call-out of the one Ken who really did just want to be with his Barbie. I saw the Barbie that really wanted to be with him back. I loved them. I thought it was a great addition as all of the other Kens went on trips to find themselves.
And I know that wasn’t the main point of the movie. I know there are essays that could be written on every part of the movie that Does Not have to do with romantic relationships as well as more in depth points to be made on the romantic relationships that are in this movie. But I personally feel like all of those other points are being made more eloquently elsewhere and that whatever isn’t said there, the Barbie movie said clearly and bluntly. All I know is that in this moment, this is what I’m feeling passionate writing about.
Maybe I just need to watch it again in a different mood. Maybe I need to watch it with a different mindset and I won’t be so devastated, the relationship will be exactly what I’m hoping it would have been, and this is what I’ve been waiting for in media.
But right now I’m just a little sad.
