i need feminism because when jesus does a magic trick it’s a goddamn miracle but when a woman does a magic trick she gets burned at the stake
"jesus was actually a radical Palestinian activist of colour" stop trying to sell Christianity by slapping a progressive coat of paint on it. it's still preaching even if you don't recognise that and think you're just trying to fight back against conservatives or whatever. I promise you ~global christendom~ would not be fucking redeemed if everyone just learned the *true* meaning of his message (but for real this time)

it is my solemn duty to join fandoms and be insane and obsessed about platonic relationships. it’s a critical ecological niche and i am happy to occupy it and draw others in like an angler fish who writes intense and wrenching gen fic.
The strongest theme of The Pitt for me is how nothing is how the public expects it. You think you know how unhoused people look like? No, he can be a fourth year med student doing his best. CSA survivor with a best friend who committed suicide? she's the meanest R1 who is not letting injustice slide and gets so excited about every procedure. The addict and the woman going through a miscarriage are the most competent senior residents you've ever seen. The attending saving the day at the last minute is an amputee.
Noah Wyles and his team really said "Nothing in ER departments is how it's supposed to be from the 12-hour wait times to the lack of blood, but people going through what would be anybody else's worst day are the only thing keeping the american healthcare system together"

THE PITT (2025- )
i think a lot of shows that are based on 911 services (the 🏥👮🏻♂️🚁💪👩🚒🚑🔦💥⚖️ genre) show different workers having camaraderie w and unconditional support for the cops, like yeaaa everyone on the frontlines respects the boys in blue and knows society would be in the gutter without them 💯
and the pitt is just like. well tbr the cops and social services are in and out of the ER a lot, and there’s basic cordiality and cooperation and 1 instance of flirting. but that MCI hits and the cops are 1 (one) guy who got shot and 10 performative idiots who are literally standing IN THE WAY, stressing out and slowing down the doctors, who are the only ones actually HELPING, and then they somewhat understandably tackle the wrong guy as a suspected shooter, and then they try to ARREST one of the doctors who just saved 20 lives bc she broke parole conditions to do so…. unfeeling enforcers of a purely punitive criminal system… and THEN they only back down when another COP is like “well she did save our boy. in particular. she saved a cop.” and they’re like WELL IN THAT CASE
there’s no liberal monologue or lesson abt defunding the police and funding kiara instead and there probably won’t be on this show. but the pitt casually displays 9/10 cops as useless macho assholes who fuck with more important emergency workers whenever they feel like it. hilarious and real
The funniest part of the Gemstone family easily accepting Kelvin’s gay relationship with his ex-satanist best friend man servant is that it comes after four seasons of them aggressively hating Judy’s husband BJ for being a secular optometrist
