on dirait que le navire a chaviré trop de fois"
Dealing with my fear of rejection by never asking for anything, and my fear of being a burden by never doing anything that involves other people. Foolproof.
that carmy and richie fight in the finale was devastatingly beautiful. first the setting of carmy being stuck in the inside and richie being outside helping to run the shit. then, carmy being in the darker light while richie is in the lighter one. and everything that was said in the fight proved to me more how much they are family because only family can know this much where it would hurt and only family would still keep loving you after all this. like the way richie hits carmy by calling him donna was so unexpected i gasped. and you can see richie immediately regrets it but the damage has been done and carmy just starts losing it. also the way richie was trying to be real with carmy saying somebody has to tell him this shit as the pseudo-big brother he is. and then carmy keeps on going and hits richie with his kid but richie doesn’t stay with it all that much, because it comes down to michael again. in the show, it’s like the emptiness michael left is so tangible it’s crazy BUT it’s especially tangible when it comes to richie and carmy. and so, richie goes back to michael and the funeral and the fact that carmy wasn’t there but carmy goes on and on attacking richie saying richie is obsessed with his family. what does richie do then, keeps shouting i fucking love you over and over again. and it was such an unexpected choice like that destroyed me. but that’s the bottom line. they are gonna rip each other off but richie loves carmy so much, and I believe he knows he stepped over the line with the donna comment, and that carmy doesn’t mean anything he says at that moment. because they also had their whole development throughout the season. because they are fucking family.
downside: going to have to include a picture of the Giza pyramids in the slides for the lecture upside: i get to give people a crash course in why perspective matters in two frames, because

i find most people who haven’t seen it in person don’t know that cairo is RIGHT THERE
I loved these perspectives so I took some of my own when I was in Cairo and yeah, they’re literally just. Right there. Pass em on your way to work, nbd
No, y'all don’t even understand.
There is literally a Pizza Hut across the street from the pyramids.
That Pizza Hut among other things is why Egyptologists laugh their asses off when we see another piece of media where the protagonists get “lost in the desert near the pyramids”, because it’s like… just turn around my dudes you’re only a seven min walk away from the nearest fastfood shop
