P' Cir, are you breaking up with me? No. And are you thinking about breaking up with me? Not at all. So no matter what happens, you won't stop loving me? No way, Phu. Then tell your mother and fiancée what we are to each other.

it's impossible to choose my favorite alanjeff scene but i love this one a lot. gifs for @profoundnonsense for donating to amnesty international for earthquake relief in myanmar and thailand

[stephreviews]

I can't handle Flirt Milk sometimes.

So we start the scene with Phra Aek coming downstairs.

Then he sits down to eat. Okay, I'm following so far.

Then he calls Nom Jued to eat? But wait, where the fuck did the food come from??

But now Nom Jued comes out in the weird ass outfit that Somchat gave him 😭

And they're fucking on the floor? Even though the couch is right there?

IT FADES TO BLACK? Did they ever eat the food? Where did the food come from? Why was he upstairs? Why didn't he call for Nom Jued while he was upstairs? Where did Nom Jued come from? It was like he spawned in out of nowhere 😭

I've been thinking about this "resolution" all day. It's obvious that this issue was written by someone who has never experienced a real disagreement or rift in their family. In both Yotha's and Faifa's cases, it was written as if the only issue was with the parents, not with the family as a whole. I think a lot of this is coming from a mindset that if we solve our issues with our parents, everything else will be fine.

But it completely neglects that family comes in a lot of forms. Where were Yotha and Newton this whole time? Why did no one ever notice how upset he was? Was he really that good at hiding his feelings or do they just suck?

I agree that it would have been so much more satisfying if the ultimate conclusion was the boys growing closer over time and coming to terms with the bad relationship with their mom, or cutting her off completely. She sucks.

re: P10L

as for the horrible parenting on Faifa’s mum’s part, you’re completely right. what struck me during this entire show is their interesting concept of “divorce.” 🤔 for full disclosure: by some miracle, my parents are still happily married. so all my experiences are 2nd hand (through family and close friends).

I get that Newton/ Yota/ Faifa’s mother doesn’t live in Thailand, so she doesn’t have her own home there. (although, at the rate of her visits he might as well acquire one… 🙃) but constantly visiting N/ Y/ F’s dad and then demand an assembly of all the family members…that’s just strange. we never see her spend quality time with any of her sons individually (you know, doing activities that they might actually enjoy). now this might all be on account of her bad parenting.

as for the relationship between mum and dad, I definitely do not suggest a ww3 scenario. but their interpretation of “coparenting” is weird to say the least… the fact that they literally split up their children suggests some animosity. but during their forced gatherings they seem to be a sort of happy unit…

[now assuming that the dad is the more attentive parent in this scenario]

sorry, but if I noticed one or more of my children suffered significantly from my ex-partner, who I feel at least a little animosity to, I think I would at some point put my foot down and say “enough!”. but none of that seems to have happened here. (or at least not significantly)

where was the dad here? it’s good that he pointed out they are bad parents, but it’s a little too late. I know it’s awful to say, but at this point I would’ve even preferred a loud argument, because that at least would’ve suggested that he actually stood up for his children.

honestly this just makes me a bit sad. especially since they don’t seem to have an “alternate parental figure” (a grandparent, aunt/ uncle, family friend).

ugh…BL and parents…you could write a book about it. 😒

love,

— Thel. 💚

You could write many books about it, though I would not be the one to do it.

But basically... yeah. It's wild. They're bad parents and they hurt Faifa so much and mom claimed she knew the entire time and did... nothing?! Abandoned him again and again? Said he was sulking when he, for once, showed her that he was hurting?!

I still will never forgive her for literally forgetting about his allergy. That was the first thing we learned about her, that she didn't remember her son's allergy... and we're still supposed to believe she loves him equally to the two sons she wanted to take with her to her new family without him?

It's a family dynamic that tries to say it's solved because of a single conversation but doesn't actually touch on the other issues.

Still mad that neither Yotha nor Newton ever apologized for leaving him waiting for five hours and that mom's apology was basically just passing the blame to his father, in the end, no one acknowledged that Faifa has been hurting for so long. Mom apparently knew! Everyone was there when Faifa stared straight ahead in absolute misery while Yotha and Newton forgave her.

How did none of them see him!? He wasn't even SUBTLE!!

Anyway.

Yeah, it was an unsatisfying end and I knew it would be. Alas. GMMTV has done a few better and I had a small hope... but nope. I really wish the show had spent more time on the brothers. I really wish we'd been able to see their relationship as brothers grow and get better. Because, truthfully, seeing Yotha and Newton figure out how to show Faifa that he was loved would have been better than any amount of forgiveness that Faifa gave his mother.

Joong recounting his experience during the earthquake yesterday:

For additional context, Twitter was canceling him yesterday because he posted that he had to run outside naked in the middle of the earthquake. They claimed that him recounting his own personal experience was somehow insensitive—as if he was making light of the subject—which he clearly wasn’t. Anyway, I thought this was a fascinating read.

aww book with a fanboy in his fan meeting 🥺

they even hugged 🥰

happy fanboy 🥳
