"the World Isn't Kind" Ok??? Much More Importantly Are You?????

The other thing is if Eddie Diaz was anyone’s elder brother, they would call their best friend, therapist, spouse or older brother before going anywhere near that house.

A lot of us wanted to see Eddie’s sisters but honestly? It makes so much sense that we don’t see them. I mean, with parents like Helena and Ramon? I would never step a fucking foot in that home ever again.

like the first rule of cooking is to have fun and be yourself and the first rule of baking is to stay calm because the dough can sense fear

POV: your boyfriend just got back from a week long trip from outer space so you have to shut him up before he can make a corny joke

The thing about Chimney is he's like...the only one that hasn't had a significant "I need to quit my job" discussion/arc. Sure, he left to find Maddie, but that was never about a "I don't know if I can help people" or "I am not in my right frame of mind" and it was clear he always, always planned on coming back if he could. I think genuinely he's just content and happy. He knows his place in the world now, he has his wife, his daughter, the baby on the way, his best friend, his brother and brother-in-law, his bantering on the edge of flirty relationship with his boss, and he gets to help people. He doesn't want to be captain, he doesn't want to become a doctor, he doesn't feel the need to constantly prove he's worthy of the job. He found where he belongs and he knows it. It's why he fought so hard to get Maddie back because he KNOWS he found something with her, and even if they weren't together romantically (which obviously that's where they'd end up) he knows that he needs her in his life and as a mom to Jee. And it's so interesting to see him get hurt and maimed and sick all the time. Because he's just a dude trying to get home to his wife and his family and his beautiful, beautiful life. It's what he wanted! And he's so so so different from everyone else in the show because he never seems like he questions if he deserves it. He had a little blip when Maddie was pregnant the first time, but it was covid so I mean, I get it. But every like deeply life threatening thing he goes through, he never says "maybe I deserve to die" or "maybe I deserve this horrible thing" or "maybe my life was going TOO well so I needed to be PUNISHED" He is very much a character who is like "I don't care, I love my life so much that I will let Ravi commit domestic terrorism to save me, and I won't even feel guilty" because Chimney is not a martyr! Bobby, especially would be like "leave me for dead pls" but Chim is like "I have a HOT wife, who attacked a serial killer with a HAMMER to defend me and I MUST get home to her no matter what." It's like he goes through this life or death circumstances all of the time, and he's like if this is the price I must pay for my BIG BEAUTIFUL HAPPY LIFE, then I will gladly do so. Hell, he even makes jokes along the way and whistles and chews his gum. There's no point to this, I just love Chimney and I love that he loves his life when in the beginning he seemed to be looking for more. I'm glad he found it.

TOMORROW IS CHRISTMAS EVE!!!

keeping it real....I care more about Sydney getting her own episode than sydcarmy at this point. Don't do my girl like this. If you aren't going to...at least get her laid...give her a fucking episode so we can get to know her better.

If I have learned anything from doing fiber crafts it is to just dive right in and make the thing. You can do all the research, buy the right yarn, gauge swatch and plan your projects to the best of your ability and still make mistakes

Just make the thing. Give yourself grace when you mess up, then learn from it.
