i think maybe one of the reasons i don’t really watch s6 id that im afraid im not abed-nadir autistic: loveable, confident, pop-culture obsessed and part of the found family despite his quirks and eccentricities. sometimes i feel more like frankie-dart autistic… perceived as a cold, detached outsider who never really feels like a true member of the group
honestly i see a lot of myself in frankie, she’s just trying to help greendale in her way of understanding the world which can be very black-and-white. she doesn’t see the point of all the magic that makes greendale what it is because she doesn’t feel like a part of it. we as the audience go in expecting to dislike her, because she symbolizes the change we’re not ready to deal with. they see her as sucking the life out of greendale which im sure is really disheartening to someone who just wants to be loved like everybody else. and it’s kind of heartbreaking to me that frankie never really finds that sense of belonging that made the rest of the group feel unconditionally accepted at greendale

if 9&10 were "dont wander off", and 11&12 were "the doctor lies", 13s rule #1 is "dont question me"
"have we not had a good time together" shes pointing yaz to the rule that yaz very well knows is there: we can travel if you dont ask me any difficult questions. yaz knows this is the rule - "because you ask too many questions", "this team structure isnt flat" - but she also was the one to invite the doctor into her home so im pretty sure she also knows shes not gonna kicked out that easily. she has some leeway. which she has been using between revolution and flux, which is why the doctor reminds her of the rules
i dont think she'd kick her out though. she wouldnt. i think it's just that the more you break the rule, the more unpleasant she becomes to be around, and eventually youre gonna walk out on your own. she doesnt want you to, she'd rather you stay and dont ask questions. but if youre gonna try to ask questions anyway, i think thats whats gonna happen
and yaz must think so too. because she does back off. because she doesnt want that to happen either. and it does anyway

Ive seen the take that people seem to move on from fandoms a lot faster these days than they did in the past and I was thinking about it because it's definitely true of me and part of it I think is the fact my attention span has not been helped by the constant onslaught of new things All The Time, like it's definitely an aspect- droppingentire tv shows that I once would have watched over months a week at a time, games with 100+ hours of content being speed ran within a day of release but I also just think fandom spaces have started operating more like businesses? Like if you're a gifmaker or an artist or a writer or even someone who just blogs about it, you're sort of expected to be up to date on all the new details immediately and if you aren't well be prepared to get spoiled within days of the new game/movie/episodes/books being released because that's just how it is now- so maybe you aren't quite in the mindset to read that book right away but you also don't want to miss out so you force yourself and then end up getting a little burnt out on the series sooner and moving on to something new- it almost starts to feel like work- Oh I have to clock in and make X, Y, or Z as soon as possible or all my friends and followers of that thing will move on without me- like everything is so fast you just end up getting burnt out easily and moving on to something new much faster than in the past.

OKAY OKAY SK I JUST REWATCHED YOI AND WANT TO DUMP ALL MY COMPARISONS OF THESE TWO PARALLEL SCENES:
In Victors scene hes walking away from his coach but yuri is running towards his
Yuris scene is in daytime showing a new start in his life but victors is at night showing the end of his chapter
The train and board behind victor is illuminated which shows how hes chasing after his "light" (metaohorically) but the bus behind yuri isnt so hes already found his (given this takes place at the end of the season)
-also the board behind victor could depict how he is still living in a world where he is affected by peoples views bc ofc his whole appeal is trying to surprise ppl (which includes addressing their views) but yuris bg is a clear sky so hes at peace with who he is now which makes sense since a part of his character development was him gaining confidence in himself
Also trains are used to travel longer distances, like from city to city showimg how victor just cant stop moving but at the end hes standing still while yuri runs to him. In contrast, buses travel within a city, within one location that directly opposes how yuri was moving from jp to detroit then country to country for the grand prix so was constantly moving which kinda shows his unrest before victor came and then after he cams yuri always had someone he could call home next to him, so it didnt feel like he was making massive, uncomfortable leaps in his life anymore
in victors scene hes talking to yakov abt going alone while standing with him but in yuris scene hes talking about being together while running alone
also it isnt shown in the ss but victor is turning away while yuri is running towards so its kinda like theyre walking towards eo <3
ALSO also it could be seen as 2 separate bridges that are built the same for the sake of symbolism. They both crossed a bridge that seemed a whole world apart only to meet eo in the middle which matches up with what yuri said in ep 2 or 3 "whenever i open up to him, he always meets me in the middle"

Tag Game: Eight Shows to Get to Know Me
Tagged by @agent-p-94 Thanks for the tag! 🥰🥰
agent-p-94's post here
In order of nothing with added details no one asked for because I can't do anything without rambling on forever and I could talk about all these shows for literal hours (ask me to please, I'd love to):
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: My chaotic comfort show. Been watching for years and years and its always good for some stupid laughs at crazy insane horrible people doing the most whack ass shit imaginable. And like so many episodes so like endless watchability.
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency: Watched for the first time in Aug 2020 and while it isn't currently as severe a hyperfixation and obsession as it was when I first watched it, its leveled out to a more stable and steady love and appreciation and like come on, the fandom is great. Ya'll are the best.
In the Flesh: This show is beautiful and heartbreaking and has a permanent place in my heart. I end up rewatching it basically every year just because I just have to. It always makes me cry.
Dead Like Me/Pushing Daisies/Hannibal: I'm just going to combine all three of these Bryan Fuller masterpieces that were all cancelled too soon to be fair. All of them are special in their own way and I adore the unique comedy, the snappy and intelligent dialogue, the irreverent and unique takes on death, and the eccentric and wild characters. (I never finished Wonderfalls, the other main Bryan Fuller show, so its not on the list sorry lol).
The Good Place: Such a good show. I went into it the first watched through (back when it was just the first season out) and had no idea what to expect and it just... I mean if you've seen it you know what the first season puts you through... and what looks like a silly dumb show about dumb bad people in the afterlife becomes this wonderful show about humans learning and growing and changing even after their lives are over. It's about our duty to be kind and understanding to other people, about finding ways to live with the gray parts of morality. A comedy show that talks about ethics and moral philosophy throughout the whole show without it feeling like a big boring slog. And ends in such a beautiful way that makes my heart ache and makes me cry just remembering it.
Community: This show is great. It's hilarious. I love the characters. I love the like theme episodes and dumb comedy and the catch phrases and wacky nonsense. It's just fun and great.
Schitt's Creek: This is a show that's just fun to stick on in the background now that I've rewatched like multiple times and know the whole story. I love seeing the characters grow and learn and get closer to each other. The way that they love each other as a family and end up spreading that love to the town, how they find their places and its just a beautiful, silly, and heartwarming show. (Will never be over the loss of Ted and Alexis. They were so special together.)
Tied for the final place: Parks and Recreation, Merlin, Doctor Who: These are shows that had a major impact on me, but I haven't actually rewatched in a few years. I used to do so many watches of Parks and Rec and I still have a love for the show and Benslie is a true OTP. Merlin is great and I'll rewatch episodes here and there but it can be a bit of a slog getting through entire seasons especially knowing how it all ends (😭). And Doctor Who, I'll say probably was the show that made me end up here (on tumblr). I watched in 2012, freshman year of college not really knowing anything about fandoms or like forum places like this, ended up on Instagram to check out more Doctor Who pics and memes and saw a ton of screenshots of tumblr and then finally gave in to make my own account in 2013. And now it's 10 years later and I'm a disaster. So thanks a lot Doctor Who...
Tagging... uhhhhhhh.... idk @hbdttg @trash-mammall @mowi0205 @definesupposedtobe @lavinialost (but like no pressure just ignore this if you dont wanna) plus anyone else that wants to do it!

„insane television arcs of all time“ I have never watched the series but your tag got me curious! Care to elaborate?
well.. first of all, queer as folk (the us version.. i've not seen the uk one) is just a show of all time in general. i watched it when i was probably too young, lol, but it's an lgbt staple in my mind. you have to remember the time period it was being made and where rep was at at that point.. and what was acceptable, but much like the l word to me, it was edgy and profound to see queer people in such explicit and various ways on tv. it's shocking to me some of it made it on a tv screen in the early 2000s.
granted... i have not rewatched this show in years, so my feelings on the characters and stuff might change if i did now, but brian kinney's character arc on that show in relation to love is just... kind of a complete 180 and was satisfying to watch. to go from emotionally completely closed off to sacrificial for the sake of love and a better person for it in general is like.... profound stuff lfjekdsj. you get to just watch him thaw. there are a lot of shocking things about the show, lol... be warned, but it's really one of those ones that feels so complete in my mind.
