honestly I think Andrew is just weird. i think his brain just never shuts off, and he's always thinking bizarre thoughts. being off the meds gives him a filter, that's all. it's not like the medication created those weird thoughts for him, it just caused him to voice them. as neil and andrew spend more time alone together, he becomes more comfortable just speaking his thoughts out loud to neil. at first he was like "andrew wtf" but now he's just unphased. see:
andrew: do you think mermaid tails are a gradient or a direct cutoff
neil: what
andrew: at what point when you're eating a mermaid does it stop being sushi and become cannibalism
neil:
anyway andrew is just a little freak and i love him

the sandra lynn / fig conversation is driving me Insane. fig saying that sometimes she doesn’t wanna exist as herself at all…not wanting to ask her friends how they see her (because she’s afraid to hear their response) saying that to someone she is a monster and she Cannot stop thinking about it. sandra lynn starting the conversation saying she needs to step up but is also simultaneously taken aback about what fig expresses and doesn’t know how to responds to it and suggests getting ice cream. sandra lynn saying “convincing people they deserve good things is really tough” talking about herself but how it also reflects fig. insane!!

reading xie lian’s POV is actually hilarious once you realise xie lian isn’t oblivious at all, he basically guesses most things immediately, he’s just taken the veteran autism tactic of “it’s too much effort to figure out when it’s appropriate to mention that i know something, so i’ll just pretend i don’t know until someone says it aloud”. sometimes it turns into a bit. the truth might be embarrassingly obvious, but social cues are hard, and xie lian has infinite time to wait for the other person to blink first.

If fakir succeeds in turning duck human what the FUCK does that look like from charon’s perspective like.
Your son brings home a fully naked woman who’s now dripping pond water all over your floor. She has no home no family no possessions she doesn’t even own CLOTHES. You swear you’ve never met this woman before but something about her is vaguely familiar? Your son is talking to her like he’s known her all his life. Cherry on the fucking cake she has the same name as your son’s duck that he adores. You’re never going to see that goddamn duck again.

sorry i’m on my bullshit again but i CANNOT imagine taking the line “i loved him” —past tense lol—and making that the basis of proof for my endgame ship.
like yeah “loved him more than i will ever love anything” blah blah. she’s clearly saying it in an extremely emotional moment trying to appeal to her friend who also loved someone a lot. (not to mention dawn the sister she sacrificed herself for instead of put a sword through to save the world is RIGHT THERE.)
still past tense! still “loved” as in not love presently.
still ends her own story saying “i love you” —meaning actively right now loves— someone else directly to his face.

yes, what noah schnapp is doing is fucked up, and yes, zionism is awful, but i think that perhaps sending a 19 year old death threats on twitter is not, in fact, a great way to convince him to change and grow as a person. additionally i think we should all remember that growing up as a jewish child in the hollywood zionist hell machine might, just possibly, have caused him to fall victim to pro-zionist propaganda, and screaming for his blood will not change this, nor will it actually help palestine. by all means, boycott stranger things 5, and demand accountability for noah’s actions, but also maybe call your reps and log off twitter for five minutes. fucking hell, yall

Your professional idol wants to open a restaurant with you. He’s shit at math and project management but that’s ok, you don’t need him to be. He knows how to cook and his genius in the kitchen can only help make you better, create a restaurant you can be proud of, and help you meet your own professional goals. You work so well with each other it feels seamless and almost too good to be true. There’s a real friendship developing. There’s mutual trust and understanding. He clearly trusts you to handle the logistics because he’s shit at them, but then he starts to flake on you. Things he should be having the final say over, he is MIA or making decisions without at least consulting you first. He’s not holding up his end of the responsibilities.
And the only thing you trust that he will get right is the food. Like at this point he literally only has one job. And the time he finally decides to collaborate on your shared passion, it turns out he’s shared this project with someone else. Not his best friend, not a family member, just someone he claims is a girl and a friend…..
It rightfully pisses you off. You’ve had to do his job and yours for free in a seemingly impossible amount of time. And he has the nerve to tell you that he’s worked on the menu.. HIS ONE JOB… the one job you trusted him with, trusted that he would call you when he was ready, and he’s done it with someone who he can’t even define a relationship with????
So you rightfully snap a bit. You tell him he needs to decide who this person is because if she’s going to be helping him with his job then it better be fucking worth it. You’re being sarcastic of course, because you hope that he realizes how fucking stupid it is for him to be doing something as important as this with anyone other than you. His business partner. And you’re already anxious af about this whole situation since everything you have invested in is just a verbal agreement and you have nothing solid to really go on but his trust… and he’s essentially broken it at this point. But you can’t say this yet because neither of you really know how to communicate properly in conflict.
****
Carmy has asked so fucking much of Sydney at this point, she has nothing to hold onto. The bare minimum she did went up into dust at that moment. Because if he can just up and do his job with someone else where does that leave her?
Jealous is the last feeling I’d give Sydney in this moment. She feels betrayed. She’s frustrated. She’s tired (she is able to communicate this, thank god). She’s disappointed. So much of her livelihood and her self worth is being put into this restaurant and Carmy, from her perspective, does not seem to care about that at all. She wants him to decide on something. Claire at present, because if Claire doesn’t mean anything to him, but she can help him process his trauma through food???? Then what does that mean for Sydney and what they are building?
