The Americans is one of the four or five best dramas ever to air on TV. The closing scene of the pilot made me a diehard fan. There’s a moment in the series finale I haven’t been able to stop thinking about since I first saw it. Very few shows are written & acted on this level.

i genuinely hate how internet culture has become so normalized and widespread. i do not want a white house deputy chief of staff saying "it's white boy november" or a secretary of state tweeting that he's "locked in for this banger." grow up.

@offbeatorbit Also do not like how the smell permeates in there 🥴

The song Fearless makes me cry at the most random times. That song is so pure in ways I can’t explain.

Crazy tracklist

[Maddie🪩 @MadisonHayyes]

This line truly pissed me off. Another example of women silencing themselves into martyrdom

Picasso’s reply when asked for his thoughts on computers in 1964 is more relevant than ever:

Bridgerton men will spend an entire season flirting, scheming, and sleeping with half the ton, acting charming and desirable, and then suddenly... out of nowhere... fall in love with some pure, untouched virgin. and we’re supposed to swoon and root for it? honestly, it’s just selfishness dressed up as romance. they don’t grow or learn, they just switch targets and call it true love. it’s exhausting and ridiculous, and yet somehow we’re supposed to see it as noble.

No one talks about how the quickest cure for imposter syndrome is simply sitting in a meeting with very high-level corporate executives.

@azzurrochurro And what is this blocking?? It looks like one is purposefully put aside from the rest

The fake urgency created in corporate life for absolutely no reason is one of the worst things humans have invented.
