got diagnosed with another mental illness at therspy today. epic win for my Carrd

hot take: you can have a favourite but all spidermen are equal.

Cassie did not lie when she admitted "I keep making mistakes and not learning from them". She broke up with McKay by claiming she shouldn't be anyone's girlfriend because she doesn't think she's a good person. Her impulsive hook up with Nate was a self inflicted punishment. She has no self worth beyond how men see her as a romantic partner or sexual object. It doesn't justify lying to Maddy about it or being involved with Nate,but it simply comes from a low point that Cassie is occupying in her life. She is not a slut or homewrecker. She's simply a young girl who doesn't know how to love herself enough to avoid getting involved with toxic men.

1x01 Thoughts:

1. So fucking glad that they are having GG be a group project and not one individual and even though i think adults preying on children's privacy is disgusting (as gossip itself always has been), it's at least an interesting set up. Interested to see how the teacher dynamics will change the GG account as it goes though

2. NATE ARCHIBALD AS AN EXAMPLE OF BEST STUDENT?? someone who wrote this loves @rainathorpe and I personally

3. Poly ship poly ship poly ship

"it's different with you and aki"

"in a good way?"

"in the best way"

AND THEN

"you know you can think of him"

4. Julien and Zoya were so cute at first, I wish they had paced out that friendship throughout the season, but I'm also SO glad they didn't pull a Julien/Obi/Zoya cheating arc

5. I love the sound of Kristen Bell's voice

6. Zoya's dad is cute and it's interesting that he also has a unresolved relationship with the UES like Rufus even if not romantic

7. Super glad the power balance of the main trio isn't minions. Luna is shown to be an actual stylist, Monet is the one bossing Julien half the time as an actual manager, and Julien might be the influence but she's also a face. Which, the whole influencer thing is interesting in its own right

8. Max and his family of gays!!

9. Monet sitting like a queen in front of her throne!

10. Aki and his references 👌 I love this kid even more than I thought i might

11. Obi is a little annoying, but that's bc i don't want a rich white savior kid moralizing out of guilt with my trashy teen soaps lol. I don't think they had to go quite that hard to connect him with Zoya but whatever lol it's only the pilot

12. Also very unhappy with how the teachers dubbed the darkest-skinned character Monet "the villain", like bitch please.

13. I'm looking forward to actually getting to see Audrey's relationship with Julien, it was definitely overshadowed by Audrey's sex scenes they needed the promos for apparently

((that being said, it was nice to see the gender reversal of the typical standing male gratification sex scene))

14. this is something so tiny only i will care but i do love that they finally addressed campus roaming privileges even if in one sentence

AND LAST but... the digs at headbands, at chuck/blair being pre-cancel culture, and the former student now teacher being accused of being gossip girl were great

“its gonna be okay” bro fucking when

i be in my own head fighting for my life
