#ESPECIALLY syd

talking about these two in classic rock circles is such a fun ableism litmus test

Something I love about The Bear is how real the dialogue is. All the little stutters, the repetition, the hesitation, even the overuse of 'fuck'. It's not all perfect speeches and flawless communication. You can see the characters think, the way they stumble for the next thing to say. The chemistry is palpable because no one's trying to be clever. The ribbing is exactly the kind of thing I hear at work, amongst my friends. I love the way the characters bounce off of each other and the way their dynamic changes throughout the seasons. I love Jeff, I love fire, I love cousin, I love fuck and shit and asshole and all the stupid comebacks and inside jokes. I love how human they all are.

Syd Mead (1933 - 2019)

el camino is so fucking insane. in the span of like a few hours, jesse had to go to todd's apartment, see a dead body, realize that todd has been keeping drew sharp's tarantula as a fucking pet, ride in a car trunk with said dead body, BURY said dead body by himself in his starved and beaten state, have his spirit totally and completely broken by the faint promise of personhood, fully make the transition to kicked dog, and he had to do all that awful shit while hanging out with todd's annoying ass 😭

I know I've been on about this for a while now and I'm being a hater but you're telling me SydCarmy was "always meant to be platonic" even though there are two seasons of writing making use of tried-and-true explicitly romantic tropes, themes and writing signals, and SydLuca is going to be romantic because...he was nice to her on screen for a few minutes?

I don't even care if people ship SydLuca, or if they just prefer it, but you can't honestly tell me that you believe Carmy was always meant to be a friend but Luca is an obvious love interest.

Just because Syd and Carmy haven't kissed or confessed their love to each other doesn't mean that isn't very obviously the direction this show is going. The Bear has already shown you who is endgame. It has shown you every episode of the show so far.

Honestly I really don't think The Bear fanbase understands this show or cares about these characters or the story being told here, which is unfortunate because this show is shockingly well-written in comparison to most shows right now, and we should be so grateful for it but all we're doing is complaining that the writers led us on by not making a ship canon fast enough. It's just. Sad.

People are really just destined to make stories and play together in times of uncertainty and struggle huh

Art dump :))

Art block has once again fallen over me and I'm physically unable to draw well, but here's some stuff I've managed during the last month

[kommandonuovidiavoli]

I watched Season 4 Episode 7 "Operation: M.A.T.A.D.O.R." (one of my faves, guess why) and I just realized this...

SYD YOU NEED TO ADD CONTEXT HERE-

[asurrogateblog]

[jigsaw voice] hello pink floyd fan. you have ten minutes to draft a post speculating about what happened to syd in a way that neither exaggerates nor dismisses the role of mental health and/or drug abuse in his departure from the band while simultaneously acknowledging his personal agency without reverting to either unfair blame or ableist infantilization. if you fail to write something sufficiently nuanced that does not ultimately contribute to his unsolicited martyrdom this brick I've tied on a string to the ceiling fan above your head will swing around and probably kill you eventually idk give it a few rounds

[sydneys-adamu]

yes I have things to say about carmy and sydney and the endless endless themes of patience and communication and devotion both of them express to each other deeply rooted in an awkward meet cute and a loaded reunion the former uses to calm down when stressed, especially how this relates to their aversion to loneliness and goal to make the other feel as surrounded and loved as possible even when it isn’t always successful

but every time I start talking about it I’m just picturing myself shaking carmy’s shoulders till his eyes cross bc this man gives me the biggest headache I’ve ever had.

not you syd you’re doing great *hands her a rose*

i always feel like there's such an underappreciated aspect of lumpus being the one to have feelings for slinkman (over the years) which is that there's something so Hilarious about him wanting to dump his head in a vat of acid because he's thinking stupid mushy shit, or Worse, about this Thing again

who also does not pick up on this at all and just thinks he's being weird again

[kylejsugarman]

mike survives walt's hissy fit gunshot and gets disappeared up to alaska afterwards as he planned and it sucks tremendously having to suddenly abandon kaylee and stacey without being able to confirm their safety and wellbeing, but he makes do being a crotchety old dude chopping firewood in the last frontier. then one day he takes a long drive to pick up some specific tools to fix stuff up around his house and stops off at a random general store to get himself a cup of coffee and as he's paying, mike feels someone staring holes into the back of his head. he plays it cool as he glances casually over his shoulder and he sees blue eyes. huge, disbelieving blue eyes. mike drops his change into the tip jar, takes his coffee, and walks back into the parking lot, where he gets into his car and waits. sure enough, a minute later, there's a shocked, cautious face in the passenger window; mike nods and unlocks the doors. then jesse pinkman—alive and at least somewhat well—climbs into his car and before mike can say anything or even really register the scars cross-hatching the kid's face, jesse throws himself at mike and begins to cry into his chest like a child. its too much for him, too much at once, and all he can do is sob and cling desperately to the one familiar, the one safe piece of his past. mike lets him cry. he doesn't say anything. he doesn't do anything except rub the kid's back to let him know that he can stay here for as long as he needs. mike has lost matty, nacho, now kaylee, and he had wearily accepted that he probably lost jesse too, but jesse lived. jesse got out. and it would be a lie to say that mike isn't just relieved to see jesse again but fucking thrilled. happy. its the same warm, chest-flooding light he'd feel every time kaylee called out "pop-pop!!" or matty ran up to him. its the feeling of coming home to someone. there'll be time to talk and work things out, but for the moment, mike just holds jesse. a father, returning from a long and tiring trip, coming home to his son.

I feel like the creators & editors must be on different pages ab syd and carmy bc how are you going to show us glaringly obvious romantic scenes n then say the opposite?? Honestly I think they’re tryna gauge our reaction before doing anything official
