Sometimes I Think I Hate The SPN Finale And Then I Remember That Jensen Initially Fucking Hated It So

An addition if I may

so im rereading the hunger games

Everyday I think about how The Bear has little to no promotion it’s just Sydcarmy and a pic of Jeremy Allen White that goes viral every once in awhile

A scene in The Bear that never fails to fuck me up is the scene in the finale where Carmy gets locked in the fridge and Tina is talking to him and she’s being so gentle with him and calls him baby and then you remember how much she loved Mikey and how much she loves Carmy and how she’s probably even more protective over Carmy after what happened with Mikey and how she’s probably terrified of losing Carmy just like she did Mikey and she was there talking to Carmy while he was locked in the fridge and Donna couldn’t even step foot in to the building and and and an-

Started rewatching the bear for like the third time and my hyperfixation has reawakened

Actually The Bear is a really good case study on trauma being deemed as abhorrent when it’s not presented in a pretty or digestible way within media including how characters who struggle with it are seen as unlovable. Particularly within Carmen’s character and the audience’s response to his behavior in season 3. Let me start this off by saying I’m not trying excuse any of Carmy’s actions throughout s3, I’m just acknowledging that trauma and it’s effects on the traumatized individual as well the effects on people in their life are complex and unpredictable, furthermore, people who haven’t experienced trauma tend to be more judgmental than compassionate towards them. Carmy is no different; him exhibiting this behavior and a certain part of The Bear fanbase choosing to ignore his past or just plain forgetting it and acting he’s like the worst person to have ever existed for having trauma and experiencing many of it’s ugly side effects. I firmly believe that a big part of this reaction is because many people lack nuance in media and an understanding that nothing is ever truly black and white. There are many shades of grey within humanity and The Bear is one of the few pieces of media that does a wonderful job of showing that. It’s glaringly obvious that Carmy has a multitude of issues that need to be addressed before he can run a successful restaurant and maintain healthy relationships. But None of that makes him an irredeemable or horrible person. It makes him a flawed human being that needs help who is also deserving of love and support. Trauma is far from beautiful and I’m tired of people acting like it needs to be portrayed in media in a sanitized way that erases all the hardships that come with it because they feel uncomfortable when they’re shown the gritty, raw, vulnerable truth of what trauma really is; of what it really does to a person. Carmy is no exception, he is struggling with his mental health in a way that is not pretty and wrapped up in a bow and people can’t handle it because we’re being shown the reality of it. He is angry, lashing out, spiraling, handling his emotions the only way he knows how by throwing himself into his work. I won’t deny that he has treated the people in his life poorly and he will need to earn their forgiveness in his own time. Yet none of that makes him any less worthy of love and patience. He needs professional help but he will only reach out when he’s ready too and even then it won’t go away over night. It can take months, and possibly years to truly heal from every thing he’s been through and after all of that he will still have bad days and he will still be just as worthy of love on those days as he is on the good ones. Struggling with trauma will never make anybody underserving of being treated with kindness or compassion and it will never make anyone any less worthy of being loved.

Big fan of Characters in SPN who have something Supernatural happen to them and then Sam n Dean tell them it’s real and then they turn around go “dude no fucking way ur insane”

She don’t love herself

Iykyk

Love how Percy doesn’t give a single fuck about anything so far. While Grover and Annabeth are being as careful and cautious as they can, he’s just out here fucking around and finding out

Look I know they would’ve never done it but can you how imagine how funny it would’ve been if they kept Dean fourteen for the rest of season 10 after about a boy. Imagine the comedic potential, especially if they met up with Cas. “Dean got zapped back to fourteen by a witch and we kept him that way because the mark of Cain is gone but don’t worry we’ll figure out how turn him back ” “you WHAT-“
