RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE. 

When I was at one of my lowest (mental) points in life, I couldn’t get out of bed some days. I had no energy or motivation and was barely getting by.

I had therapy once per week, and on this particular week I didn’t have much to ‘bring’ to the session. He asked how my week was and I really had nothing to say.

“What are you struggling with?” he asked.

I gestured around me and said “I dunno man. Life.”

Not satisfied with my answer, he said “No, what exactly are you worried about right now? What feels overwhelming? When you go home after this session, what issue will be staring at you?”

I knew the answer, but it was so ridiculous that I didn’t want to say it.

I wanted to have something more substantial.

Something more profound.

But I didn’t.

So I told him, “Honestly? The dishes. It’s stupid, I know, but the more I look at them the more I CAN’T do them because I’ll have to scrub them before I put them in the dishwasher, because the dishwasher sucks, and I just can’t stand and scrub the dishes.”

I felt like an idiot even saying it.

What kind of grown ass woman is undone by a stack of dishes? There are people out there with *actual* problems, and I’m whining to my therapist about dishes?

But my therapist nodded in understanding and then said:

“RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE.”

I began to tell him that you’re not supposed to, but he stopped me.

“Why the hell aren’t you supposed to? If you don’t want to scrub the dishes and your dishwasher sucks, run it twice. Run it three times, who cares?! Rules do not exist, so stop giving yourself rules.”

It blew my mind in a way that I don’t think I can properly express.

That day, I went home and tossed my smelly dishes haphazardly into the dishwasher and ran it three times.

I felt like I had conquered a dragon.

The next day, I took a shower lying down.

A few days later. I folded my laundry and put them wherever the fuck they fit.

There were no longer arbitrary rules I had to follow, and it gave me the freedom to make accomplishments again.

Now that I’m in a healthier place, I rinse off my dishes and put them in the dishwasher properly. I shower standing up. I sort my laundry.

But at a time when living was a struggle instead of a blessing, I learned an incredibly important lesson:

THERE ARE NO RULES.

RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE!!!

Honestly even if J does side with the absolute solver for part of the episode, I don’t think it will completely destroy her character. I have two theories about J’s involvement in the next episode and they both kinda follow a similar structure.

1. J starts the episode on the absolute solver’s side and has no idea about Tescyn. She fights the bus crash trio and probably N but eventually (most likely during the climactic end fight scene) goes and finds out that Tessa’s dead body has been Cyn’s skin suit all along. Then she has some big emotional moment, switches sides, and very possibly ends up completing the mural set.

2. J’s told about Tessa way earlier and goes to confront the absolute solver. When she gets there she has her moment then we get the shocking twist that J can actually be reset cause Uzi isn’t her administrator. Then she just kinda turns into another obstacle which sucks but it won’t be that bad if they do it right.

There are so many other ways to go that still don’t completely go against J’s character and probably do it more justice than I did it here.

I think that J is integral enough of a character that they won’t completely do her dirty like they did Doll. They don’t even have to give her that much screen (even though she deserves it). If they just give her a single emotional moment it has the potential to completely save her. I’m kind of rambling but I think my point still stands.

Ep8 Might Ruin Any Potential for J's Character

Look at this. It isn't two images stitched together. It is one, singular image.

Ep8 Might Ruin Any Potential For J's Character

Think of the implications of this image.

There was an opportunity for J to realize in the season finale that her blind loyalty and ego resulted in her being manipulated by a cruel, uncaring monster fully willing to throw her away once she had served her purpose. She could have turned against the Solver and fought to avenge Tessa after coming to understand the horrifying truth of the matter. Fought to avenge the person who pulled her from that landfill and gave her a new home. J could have been convinced by N in combination with her own internal doubts that she didn't want to believe, or by seeing the true form of the creature she had been working for.

if this image is from the episode, as prior banners have been, it means that despite what we all saw in Ep2 and 5, J never actually cared about Tessa. She is fully willing to work under the Absolute Solver as it literally wears Tessa's decaying corpse as a costume. Knowing what the Solver did to her.

J will end Murder Drones with absolutely zero character depth, complexity, or growth.

Please let this just be a weird promo image by Glitch with no relation to the actual episode, because I don't want to believe that Liam Vickers fucked up her character this badly at the last minute.

I'm dreading Ep8's arrival on August 23 if these are the type of reveals we're in for.

so incredibly sad. As much as V likes Lizzy, she’ll never really be as important as N is to her. Nothing will ever matter more to V than her life with N and I think Lizzy knows that.
