Eradicate black-and-white binary thinking from your essence!!

It’s not “the innies and outies are completely separate people OR they’re exactly the same people.” It’s not “Mark loves Gemma OR Mark loves Helly/na.” It’s not “Ricken is a misguided but sweet and well-meaning doofus OR Ricken is a selfish prick with no self-awareness who’s sold out to Lumon.” It’s not “Milchick fully embraces the rebellion right now, OR he’s fully sold his soul to the company store and there’s no coming back.” It’s not “Cobel’s programming means will always jump at a chance to gain favor in the eyes of Lumon regardless of the cost, OR she fucking despises Lumon for what they’ve done to her and she’s going to take them down at any cost.”

It’s always going to be AND!! It’s always going to be something in between, and complex, and nuanced, and layered. That in-between uncertainty, to me, is the real meat of the show. Why not dig into it?

early season 1 peter and neal are so special to me. neal caffrey’s formed a parasocial relationship with the fbi agent relentlessly pursuing him around the globe but lucky for him peter is just as on board with their best friendship

neal: my girlfriend broke up with me :(

peter, holding handcuffs and a warrant for neal’s arrest: aw im sorry buddy.

lumon's department sizes are so funny. "how many people do we need to refine some super important data?" uhhhh four i guess. at most. "what about the company marching band?" fuck ur so right. we need a company marching band with like fifty people. this is of prime importance to the lumon mission.

no more "steve rogers doesn't know modern technology." embrace "steve rogers has no fucking clue what's a realistic timeline for technological advancement is." this guy used a telegraph one day and a hologram the next. his first introduction to the present was tony stark. he's never lived in a world with an ethernet cable. he doesn't know what the fuck an ipod nano is. if you showed him something supposed to be a groundbreaking impressive invention he'd just be like "oh neat. regular future stuff. okay." steve rogers with the tech awareness of a gen alpha kid. if you showed him a cd rack he'd have to think about it.

This desk used to have four seats. Our friend Irving is gone, and they want our whole department gone. If he gets out, we're dead. They're gonna turn us off like fucking machines. You've seen them do it. I know you've lost friends too. And you could be next. You could be next.

I finished putting together the Irish-American heritage month display and Jesus CHRIST there are so few books about Ireland in our collection?? Once more, I must say:

The Australian Ballet is doing Alice in Wonderland again and on one hand I’ve seen it before, and on the other, their Queen of Hearts has my favourite costume in anything every

would zuko give the blue spirit a full pardon after the war is over or do you think he would mess with everyone and raise the bounty even higher

saw a post that said devon not being home with her baby all the time was unrealistic, implying that ricken is doing 0% of the childcare ever, and respectfully i disagree because i think that makes some incorrect assumptions about the way ricken sucks. i do not think he would ever say or even act like childcare is A Woman's Job, but i do think he would say "of course i do an equal share of childcare because patriarchy deprives men of opportunities for us to connect emotionally with our children" and then after giving eleanor her bottle he leaves to go to a different room to write a really self-satisfied blog post about how it feels to break cycles.

My friend, Mr. Milchick, is having a rough day. I hope he gets a chance to see Drummond's exsanguinated corpse.

wondering about the audition process to cast emile the goat. did they get the goat with the biggest wettest eyes. did they get the goat who could bleat the sweetest and saddest. the goat who could stand the cutest. the goat who could look into the gun the most innocently. did the goats called back have to do a chemistry test with gwendoline christie. many such questions. anyway that little goat has such a promising career ahead. what a performance.

You know what the real tragedy is? I feel like Helly would have absolutely LOVED the mammalians. Everyone's covered in dirt, their department chief is a tall and menacing woman who has a bell that can summon a mob. Not only would Helly have been the first to crawl through goat shit in that tunnel, I think Mark would have had to drag her out of there, on god
