So I May Be Judgmental And Choosy About What I Consume, But I Am Absolutely Firm In My Belief That Everyone

People keep asking others, “why are you so upset, you weren’t there, and Ariana walked away fine.” One of the survivors of the attack contributed to this article that highlights why we all are grieving the 22 young people who lost their lives: — “…fans worldwide are congregating on forums, hosting vigils, editing together tribute videos on YouTube and direct-messaging each other on Twitter to get through their grief – because, with a fandom as intense and loving as this one, an attack on some of Ariana’s fans is an attack on all of them. These are young people all over the world who are hurting because they ‘lost 22 members of our family the other night, too soon’…The Ariana Grande fan base, you have to understand, is a family…‘The support I’ve gotten from other Arianators is amazing and it’s helping me to get through this. Also, it’s helping me to get through depression and other mental health issues.’” Rest in peace the 22 little angels. Survivors of the attack, people who watched from their television screens, and the entire Ariana fan base, it’s okay for you to be grieving too. Your feelings are valid and if you are feeling alone please reach out for support.

Goodnight Tony Stark. You can rest now. With no distractions or anything keeping you up at night. You no longer have to go to sleep in fear of having nightmares. You’re in peace now. Don’t worry, you’ll continue to inspire me everyday. I love you 3000, Iron Man, forever and always.

Wooow I feel like I need to watch the whole serie again, like every episode just to see every details !!!!!!!!

i love how sana’s season seems to tie in with the underlying disfunctionalities of friendships. from s1 julie always emphasised how she wanted to focus on teenage girls and their problems so she slowly established the girl squad who for the most part seemed to have this admirably strong bond, the girls were supportive of each other when they had boy or school or family troubles… but now that we see it all play out from sana’s pov we suddenly become aware of all the cracks, all the miscommunication, the constant little hurts that words/simply being ignorant/not paying attention to someone’s reactions to your comments can cause.

in the previous seasons we might’ve assumed that sana sometimes felt excluded but now we see just how much they don’t know about her private life. she had always come off as a girl who can’t be fucked with, a girl that is not phased by ugly comments or harrassment (the text on her locker) and who always has a comeback and can shake off any mistreatment easily. but now that we see the close-ups of her, there’s the sadness and the distance and those walls that never fully come down and how she needs to put back the brave/unbothered expression on her face every time vilde makes an ignorant comment or the girls plan an activity/order some food that doesn’t take sana’s religion into account and it must feel like a little cut that won’t kill you but makes you bleed. it’s the constant sores that you have to live with but sometimes new ones catch you unaware… 

sana is so estranged from the other girls that she’s probably never brought them home, never talked about about her brother in detail, likely never talked about her religion with them and certainly never brought up how she finds all of these little things that occur daily so hurtful. i’m sure we’ll get there. i’m sure julie intends to show us that there’s only so much a person can take without breaking down/snapping/retaliating eventually. i hope we’ll see sana making them aware that inaction or assumptions/being inconsiderate are just as hurtful as straight out attacks on a person/their religion.

and we can also see that there’re many layers to friendships and even though the girl squad’s friendship may have seemed like a well functioning one at first glance, we now have an insight that noora makes up lies to get out of group activities, maybe bc she knows the topic of william will be discussed or she’s depressed bc of william, deep down she knows it’s over between them and the girls make it quite clear they want her to get over william. but she’s just not ready to move on and feels like she can’t talk to them about him. there’s always the offers from vilde or eva that they could set her up with someone, like being alone was unhealthy, like she failed somehow with william.

i’m sure the other girls also hurt. chris must hate how easily the others dismissed her breakup with casper, how they never bothered to ask what happened. just bc she tries to be a positive person doesn’t mean she never gets hurt when her relationship is taken as a joke or how awful chris feels when vilde looks in the mirror and exclaims how fat she looks and even though she knows the comment is rooted in vilde’s body dysmorphia it still feels like it’s an indirect criticism of her body… 

we also know vilde basically got together with magnus bc of the others’ comments on how she was not getting any dick and who knows how triggering she finds it when noora reminds her of her eating disorder by pointing out something she eats (even if it’s just an ‘i’m proud of you’), it makes her question whether she should’ve eaten it or was it a jab that she’s eating too much? 

or how eva hates the thought of jonas hooking up with any of the girls (yes, she’s over him but still, no) or how they sometimes jokingly say she has an alcohol problem, and yes, sometimes she gets that feeling that she’s being judged for being promiscuous. these may all seem like small things but they hurt. 

and then there’s sana who feels like an outsider in basically all areas of life except for maybe school (but even then it’s not the same for her - gym class sucks; she still gets the odd looks for wearing a different outfit). it’s the conversations about physicality with boys, it’s the food (’that pork with apples was delicious the other day’), it’s the parties where she’s the only one not drinking/smoking if noora is not there, it’s how they arrange to meet right when it’s prayer time for her and she never points it out to them, it’s the assumptions about her religion/family/values that she’s long stopped trying to correct… the list is endless.

so i really hope julie will educate us about many ways there are to be misunderstood, how to be better and more supportive friends, how not to dismiss the intricacies of every culture and religion, how to live and let live and be considerate and celebrate differences.

Damn

This damn thread!

I swear y'all in the Skam fandom fucking annoys me to no end sometimes. Like I love most of y'all but you annoy me. Like this show has 3 past seasons and you all know how Julie Andem does it. And yet you’re still quick to yell cancelled and shit to certain characters. Like Y'ALL RELAX JULIE’S GOT THIS. There were characters in season 1 that I immediately cancelled and by the last episode they got their shit together. From the first season I learned that Julie is a fucking master at what she does. It’s been 3 and you people are still blind. Like I said relax, take a deep breath, and hiatus is only one week we’ll survive. :)

Forgive me.

😏😏

can we talk about how sana literally told her mother that her husband was going to cook for her since she couldn’t cook, and then yousef the fucking master chef waltzes in and teaches sana how to peel carrots,,,, if that isn’t foreshadowing,,,,

What a actor !!!
